Witten, PBR Hawaii, re: Summarized testimony <br />presented at 7/09/07 meeting for O`oma. <br />Mr. Kaneshiro noted that all communications submitted will be filed. <br />DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE REPORT <br />Mr. Yada informed the Commission that the County is still awaiting the appraisal from Marcia <br />Johnson for Kawa`a. In regards to the Olsen properties, Lea Hong of TPL is still working on an <br />application for a recovery land acquisition program grant based on endangered species. In <br />addition, discussions are now taking place to apply for more funds from the DLNR LLF for <br />possible purchase of the Olsen properties. <br />Mr. Gilmartin asked if the funding sources for these grants being prepared by TPL would be <br />federal or county. Mr. Yada replied that Ms. Hong is applying for federal grants and the <br />remainder of the cost for Kawa`a, would come out of the open space fund. In addition, we are <br />still awaiting feedback from DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) on whether <br />they would be willing to accept a larger role on the management side. <br />-8- <br />
