<br />Ms. Tita: You know Mr. Henkel was quite aggressive in the way he spoke at <br />that hearing and he repeated over and over that Kawauchi had lied, <br />she had lied to the Commission, she, and it was, it just became <br />where I felt like I was some kind of just a crumb that was there. <br />He also, Mr. Henkel went on to ask me and I, you know, as I <br />thought about this since I filed this complaint, he went on to ask <br />me what have you done for Hawaiian Acres. Are you contributing <br />anything to them? And I thought to myself now that this is all said <br />and done, what’s the point of that question and I did respond to <br />him and said yes, well I am doing something. I put my name to <br />run on their Board and he was demeaning of me. He did not want <br />to hear anymore from me and he said so, I heard enough from you <br />and I actually, normally I behave, I try to behave responsibly as an <br />adult and as a professional and I answered him back and said, yeah <br />I get your point, I get your point. I mean it just was, it was not, I <br />didn’t find it to be very professional at all. He wanted to push it <br />through that day and he said I’ve heard enough of this I’m just, lets <br />push it through and if it were not for not Duane, but the Planning <br />person that had presented this in the beginning who said no, no, no, <br />you can’t do that because we haven’t given her standing yet. And <br />he just went on to rankle with it and say enough, you know, this <br />has dragged on long enough and that’s when his remark came out <br />and then told me you know you’ve caused the good people of <br />Hawaiian Acres enough problems. I mean there’s, there was no <br />absolutely no `I’m on the fence with the issue`, he had made up his <br />mind and it was a done deal, just dispose of me and move this <br />forward. And I had not been allowed to have Counsel, I found that <br />odd too from day one. The minute Ms. Kawauchi opened her <br />mouth she was stopped and I was dismissed, yet testimony <br />continued to go on and they continue to take testimony as if the <br />whole, it was to me, it’s bizarre there were no rules and I’m under <br />the impression that every committee, every council there is rules, <br />there were no rules. I had not been given standing or even <br />standing was not considered, yet testimony was taken at every, <br />every hearing. And so I don’t know what to do so sometimes I <br />gave testimony and sometimes I didn’t because I didn’t know, but I <br />did feel as though it was a defeated situation. So I am personally <br />deeply disturbed by the behavior of the Windward Planning <br />Commission as far as how they operate and more so disturbed that <br />one of the members felt he had been empowered, and had the <br />authority to belittle and humiliate me in public. <br /> <br />Mr. Balsis: I’m going to ask you to stay there. Glen \[sic\] Henkel. <br /> <br />Mr. Henkel: Greg. <br />7 <br /> <br /> <br />
