CHR. SIRACUSA: Okay, so let's move a little south. <br />MR. MELROSE: Can I make a suggestion? I am going to need to leave in a couple of minutes, <br />so if we went over towards Hilo, District 1 and 2 or 3 or whatever that number is interface, I just <br />want to see if we can make a couple of changes there. Both districts are low, District 2 and 3. <br />CHR. SIRACUSA: And District 1. <br />MR. MELROSE: One of the things when I look at this one, right above the Council District 3 <br />line, we kind of go through a little neighborhood there. That is not Waianuenue Avenue, that is <br />Punahele Street; and if we could round those three blocks into, then the corner is a <br />Komohana /Haumana corner; not Punahele. <br />MR. MIDDLESWORTH: That's a good idea. <br />MR. MELROSE: So you see those three? Right where the hand is, one, two, three; exactly. <br />What happens if you put them into District 3? What did our numbers do? <br />CHR. SIRACUSA: We are okay, numbers wise. <br />MR. MIDDLESWORTH: Komohana is a good place to break it. <br />MR. KAHAWAIOLA`A: Yes, Komohana, yes. <br />MR. MELROSE: The other piece, if it is possible, if we ran Waianuenue down the middle and <br />followed Waianuenue instead of Haile Street, it does throw off some numbers, but I don't think it <br />is bad. Put it into District 2. Most of that is business, without housing; but there is housing up <br />there. Are we okay? Doesn't that seem more elegant? <br />CHR. SIRACUSA: It is more elegant, more compact. It is a nice easy line for Elections to <br />follow when they are doing their metes and bounds. <br />MR. MELROSE: Doesn't that look like a pretty clean corner? I would say one more thing. If <br />we use this configuration, from a numbering perspective, I would suggest we start with District 1 <br />at North Kohala, District 2 at Hamakua and go all the way around. We actually have that chance <br />to do that here, and I would say we think about that. We could actually move a little bit into <br />District 3 from District 2 if we felt that was useful. The only real place to do it is right there <br />where the hand is. <br />MR. MIDDLESWORTH: District 2 is one of the ones that should be bigger because it is not <br />going to grow much. <br />MR. MELROSE: That is true, but we are still aiming at a number. The problem is there are a ton <br />of votes in there, not votes, but there are a ton of residents in there. <br />39 <br />
