L. Scadden said that as MCPD goes forward on the emergency preparedness, one <br />of the key issues is going to be public awareness of what should be done. <br />B. RECREATION SUBCOMMITTEE € L. SCADDEN <br />L. Scadden reported that he has not spoken to A. Mitchener in the last month since <br />he returned from vacation. He received a phone call from the head lifeguard at a <br />public pool in West Hawaii about what should be done to make the pool facilities <br />accessible to blind people. L. Scadden said he provided comments and asked if <br />they have been in contact with A.Mitchener. He was assured that A. Mitchener had <br />prompted the lifeguard to work on improving accessibility of the pool. <br />C. TRANSPORTATION SUBCOMMITTEE € B. WHITNEY <br />B. Whitney reported that she has not spoken to T. Brown. She felt that this <br />subcommittee needs guidance from MCPD. <br />L. Scadden said he heard through the grapevine and talking to other county people <br />that additional public transportation will be provided in West Hawaii. He would like to <br />invite T. Brown to a MCPD meeting to discuss the additional buses and to ensure <br />that it meets the needs of people with disabilities. <br />D. Cowdrey agreed to serve on this subcommittee and asked L. Scadden to include <br />her in the meeting with A. Mitchener. <br />UNFINISHED BUSINESS <br />A. VOLUNTEER PARKING VIOLATION ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM UPDATE <br />T.
