From: bubblealo()aol.com <br /> To: LPCtestimony <br /> Subject: Testimony Opposing Bill 121 TAR <br /> Date: Monday,April 15,2024 3:06:55 PM <br /> Aloha my name is Linda Halbritter. I oppose Bill 121 . 1 am a kupuna who has lived in <br /> Hawi for 45 years with my husband of 58 years. My husband is a disabled retired <br /> police officer. Our TAR is our main income. I can't understand WHY you would want <br /> to put us out of business. We have 3 empolyee's who need jobs. We pay all our <br /> taxes which is lots of money, which goes to the county. Our guest love staying here <br /> interacting with us and our community. They spend their money in our little town of <br /> Hawi, at the restaurants, art galleries and tourist activities. Our helpers spend their <br /> money here also. If you pass this Bill 121 all that would be gone. We use this <br /> income to pay our mortgage, lots of doctor bills, medical insurance, etc. If this Bill 121 <br /> passes we would lose our business. And possibly our home. Not to mention our <br /> helpers would be out of a job and most likely have to go on welfare. <br /> Please DO NOT PASS THIS BILL 121.. <br /> Thank you very much. <br /> Linda & Martin Halbritter <br />
