OÓTOOLE:You were going to make your disclosure-? SPRINGER:Yes, thank you. Members, Corporation Counsel reminds me of a matter that she and I had discussed, and I apologize. I failed to disclose earlier that I am a member of the Kohanaiki Ohana, which is a party to the good faith agreement. The extent to which I work with the Kohanaiki Ohana is to occasionally help with field trips, and I have made donations to the Kohanaiki Ohana to support the Annual Keiki Surfer Earth Contest.

So for those providing testimony, in your turn please state your name, resident address and proceed. Starting with yo PALMA-GLENNIE:IÓm Janice Palma-Glennie, and my address is P.O. Box 4849 and thatÓs Kailua-Kona. And I am speaking this time for Sierra Club island. IÓm not going to read my testimony. But I donÓt want to beat a dead horse, but the golf course issue still concerns and confuses me. I have been wondering since the very beginning of the agreement being made how public land could be private, and IÓm sure it was a good business decision, as Mr. Thibadeau said.
