The livestock facility envisioned by HB 1389, HD1 would <br />be another step in the right direction, and therefore I would urge this Legislature to <br />provide reasonable funding for the planning and design of such a facility. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Harry Kim <br />Mayor <br />County of Hawaii is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br />
