year-old survey, and inadequate kuleana regarding the 1830 Pa Kuakini. The wall is not on the parcel,but the plan includes an access plan which breaches the wall to get to Ali`i Drive. The wall was originally six miles long, but the County has repeatedly allowed it to be breached for development. She asked if the County has a map with GIS layers of the wall and across the TMKs, and if the County tracks each breach and its cumulative impact. Have segments been deemed to be preserved and not allow breaching? Is the County monitoring the compliance of preservation plans like SIHP Site 6302 and University of Nations Development? Will the CRC, the Planning Commission, the County Council, and the mayor continue to be complicit in the piecemeal destruction of Pa Kuakini until there is nothing left?As a pre-condition of moving forward, if it cannot be stopped all together, Ms. Harvey asked that the wall be evaluated in its entirety and the impact of destruction of 55 feet for this development. If a breach is allowed, she asked that it be minimal, that restoration be done, that preservation be done to compensate, and require the preservation plans to be monitored. Tiare Makaio was the next online testifier. She stated that she is against the destruction of the Kuakini Wall. She informed the Commission that a blue tarp, chair, and breach in the wall was witnessed in August of 2017. It was deep in the bush and the wall was being taken apart and restacked. She stated that she is completely against destruction of the wall and development for profit. Jennie Nahale-Green stated that she is against the destruction of Kuakini Wall as Kahulu`u is sacred to her and her `ohana. Neither she nor her sisters knew about the plan. Ms. Makaio interjected saying that Ms. Nahale-Green is a direct descendant, she grew up in the area, and she does not want it. Public testimony was closed at 10:49 a.m., and members of the public were asked to log off from Zoom and watch the remainder of the proceeding on YouTube. BUSINESS OF COMMISSION 1.
