• <br /> Jekyll and Mr. Hyde—if you are on his team and" play ball" by <br /> agreeing that he is above the laws that all other government <br /> officials are subject to—then he is the warm and friendly Mayor. <br /> But, on the other hand, if you are not willing to bend down to his <br /> whims and wishes, he is vengeful, retaliatory, and callous. As one <br /> of his Directors once said "I disagreed with him once, and never <br /> again". He rewards those who acquiesce to his wishes and <br /> bullying, and he punishes those who do not. He rules as a dictator <br /> and I believe there are many who keep quiet out of fear and which <br /> is what is see with the journalists who did his bidding even before <br /> came into their lucrative positions. When I first ran for council <br /> Kenoi aggressively campaigned against me—threatening locals <br /> who supported me "What are you doing helping that haole?" <br /> Once I was elected, he repeatedly refused my requests to meet with <br /> him about District 9 matters and in public acted in a rude and <br /> disrespectful way. So, I can appreciate why other council members <br /> and those in his administration and perhaps you on this Board are <br /> afraid of him. If this Board now gives Kenoi a pass, there will be <br /> no closure either for his constituents or for Kenoi himself. He will <br /> not only have been found to be above the law,but will also be <br /> unaccountable for his unethical conduct. So the question of the day <br /> is: will you use one excuse or another and likewise give him a <br /> pass, or will you carry out the mission of this Board and transmit <br /> this complaint to the Council along with an advisory opinion, as is <br /> provided for in the functions of the Board set forth in the County <br /> Charter.
