COMM. 51.49- 51.56 re Hilo Districts

Home

TO: Members of the Redistrict Commission for Hilo Meeting RE: RECONSIDER the proposed boundaries for District 2 and District 3 I have reviewed the proposed redistrict map and I wonder why are we going from the Ocean to the Mountain? The commissioners in District 2, 3 and 4, why are you changing the lines and not going with the original lines going "North to South" as how it has always been. To my knowledge, District 2 has always represented the "rural and urban" communities. District 4 has always been the "mix district" and District 3 was also a "rural and urban" until 10 years ago when the commission changed that and put Keaau in District 3. "KEEP District 2 RURAL/URBAN" and "KEEP District 4 MIXED ". Commissioners 2 3 and 4, you need to remember, you need think how District 2 and 3 will best service the "People" of those districts in Hilo. Go back to using the following streets as the boundaries; from Wailuku River go to either Komohana or Kapiolani Streets to divide Districts 2 and 3. This way, you would start from the North end of Hilo and go south to Keaau. Remember the faith lies in your hands for the next 10 years that will affect the "PEOPLE" of Hilo. Do you want people "talking" for the next 10 years on how the representatives for District 2, 3 and 4 changed everyone's lives? So plea e Ar id er our ch n s an keep li s oing North to South. Thank y COMM. 51.51
