From: Roger Christie To: WPCtestimonv; LPCtestimonv Subject: Testimony of January 16,2025 for General Plan 2045 Date: Thursday,January 16,2025 9:31:08 AM Attachments: Adobe Scan Nov 27.2023(5).odf Good morning and aloha! It's my opinion that the Hawai'i County General Plan 2045, although supported by many good people with honorable motives, is 'frog in the pot' governance with the heat turned up a lot. Some of us frogs are very uncomfortable with its dominating, controlling details from the U.N. and other globalists and we appreciate the opportunity to voice our concerns in an effort to reject it. By rejecting the plan I support the spirit and the letter of the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution which seem to be lost in the many overreaching details of the current plan. My concerns include: 1. Changing land use definitions and zoning without the full knowledge and approval of property owners 2. Regulating off-grid living 3. Further stressing the electric grid and increasing the costs of electricity 4. Giving outside "stakeholders" undue influence in local affairs I believe that any plan for our future must include the 1993 Apology Bill which clearly exposes the theft of the Kingdom of Hawai'i by the U.S.A. in 1893. his://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/STATUTE-107/pdf/STATUTE-107-Pg 1510.pdf I believe that any plan for our future must include the provable history of our happy days and enormous backyard wealth generated here by a robust Cannabis economy in the 1980's. In 120 days we can have a world famous, multimillion dollar Cannabis hemp harvest for health, wealth, happiness, holiness and renewable ag economy. We simply need more freedom and less oversight, more freedom and fewer grants. The plan must include that Hawai'i County helped to destroy that safe, natural and renewable economy and lifestyle and replaced it with poverty, meth, homelessness and crime which exists to this day. When the marijuana eradication program was proven to be the cause of the troubles the county hid the study and continued the disastrous program until I shut it down with an impeachment lawsuit in 1999. The county government is not to be trusted and needs to listen to the guidance of the citizens and not globalists, not SMART City advocates and other outside "stakeholders". We the people need, want, deserve and demand that our individual rights and freedoms to be strengthened, not reduced by the plan as it exists. P.S. The censorship of my friend Megan Isaac in a recent hearing was unacceptable.
