SAWYER: Hi everyone. Can you hear me? <br /> HATA: Yes, we can hear you. <br /> SAWYER: Okay, thank you. Good morning, everyone, my name is Stacy Sawyer. I live at 77- <br /> 122 Queen Kalama Avenue, 2 doors down from Naniloa. This development must, I'm so against <br /> it and everyone in our community is against it. I have turned in testimony, I've turned in a <br /> petition, and I agree with the last two speakers on everything. In my written testimony that I <br /> submitted; we have wonderful wildlife here that would be gone if this is allowed to go through. <br /> If you put in that road off of Alii Drive for them to access this new development, we all know <br /> that is just going to lead to more houses being approved. The noise, the traffic, no emergency <br /> routes, too many developments in this area, and we have Stanford Carr down the road on Alii. <br /> Kamehameha Schools, they want to put in the bungalows and there's another one I don't know <br /> what it's technically called for approval with 52 more affordable homes on Alii Drive. It's too <br /> much. It's too much for this area. We all know, they're going to use Naniloa and other places to <br /> access this with their trucks and their drilling. <br /> And furthermore, it's a California company. They missed the deadline. I listened to the whole <br /> last when they testified, and they had no good excuse. No good excuse for not submitting their <br /> paperwork. You know that's just ridiculous. They missed the deadline, they were disappointed <br /> it wasn't approved and therefore, why are we even looking at this. These Kuakini Walls they'll <br /> disappear forever. They'll be gone. This is Hawaiian land. I'm just so upset about it. Please do <br /> not approve this. Thank you. <br /> VITOUSEK: Thank you. <br /> HATA: The next testifier is Tara Rojas testifying on Items 5 and 6. <br /> ROJAS: Aloha, my name is Tara Rojas, and yes, I am so glad to hear the previous testifiers <br /> because this is happening on all islands. And to hear that kanaka"—" are speaking up for <br /> Hawaii island against this Naniloa development for the reasons that they stated, and you've <br /> heard. You know this land, this `aina, you know is primarily for kanaka"—" and for those of us <br /> who were born and raised here and or just you know are really kanaka"—" and thus. We feel <br /> and we're here to protect the same values that kanaka"—" have and have held for generations, <br /> and so, if you're hearing this speaking up against this development for Naniloa on Moku Keawe. <br /> Now, can you imagine the same exact thing I just came off from a Kauai County Council <br /> meeting, Kauai Planning Commission Use on the island of Kauai. Where it's much smaller, well <br /> I mean not much smaller but it's a different community. Every island has their own you know <br /> their own feel, their own community, and right now I am so grateful to hear the kanaka"—" <br /> testifiers you know mentioning about the hewa. That's been happening for way too long and that <br /> now it's coming to light with all the corruption cases. <br /> So, if what's happening in all of these Planning Commissions, and County Councils are through <br /> corruption, you know bribery and that's how come the current desecration is happening right <br /> now in Koloa, Kauai. And right now, you know so many other things happening, you need, this <br /> 4 <br /> EXHIBIT A <br />
