information for the County of HawaiÒi. I spoke with David Rosenbrock from the State Reapportionment Project, and he informed me that they are in the process of getting the same information that we have obtained. The reason they are getting that information is that they will be doing two plans. One, their plans will include total population, and the other plan, they are going to create one just in case they need it, with the extraction numbers. At this time, the got information from the University of HawaiÒi and they did receive information from the military. The only problem with the military information is tha active military members and dependents by zip codes, but they did not tell them who were residents or non-residents. That is the problem they are faced with right now and they are waiting to correct that information. MR. MIDDLESWORTH : How many U.H. students are there? : I believe it was a little over 1200. MS. NAKAMOTO CHR. SIRACUSA : This is getting so frustrating. I tried to get on the website the other day and I got a blank screen with just a few words on it that said, ÐMaps cannot be displayed.Ñ IÓm wondering if thatÓs because David Rosenbrock is still trying to de-populate. MS. NAKAMOTO : IÓm not certain, but the staff has been working on some plans. WeÓve initiated them on our own, just to kind of get familiar with the software and try to create some different plans. And theyÓve created five plans already with different starting points. We havenÓt experienced any problem using the software. I donÓt know if any of the other Commissioners have. CHR. SIRACUSA : If any others have experienced problems, please speak up. Th while we are discussing it. MR. CARVALHO: Hi, this is Joe in Waimea. CHR. SIRACUSA: Yes, Joseph. MR. CARVALHO:ItÓs a loading problem with the software. Sometimes you get Ðac denied,Ñ but then I do it again and get back in. When IÓm tryin a map, I get an error message; then it clears up itself. I donÓt know if itÓs a response time issue, or if too many people are using it. ItÓs probably just a software navigation problem, and itÓs not us, the users. But, you have got to be patient. ThatÓs the problem with working with software that is not as fast as we want it to be. CHR. SIRACUSA: Does anyone else have anything to say about this? MR. MIDDLESWORTH: There is also an issue about computer speed. A lot of what will go on will depend on you internet connection, the speed of your int of your processor in your computer. So the results will vary de are using and how you are connected to the internet. 7
