Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting <br />Minutes – June 27, 2017 <br /> We never have much support with the state with Puuanahulu, obviously, <br />because it was a small handful of people can turn around something that’s <br />very much needed here – so easily. <br /> <br />JO: To be fair, DLNR was instrumental in getting that piece of property... <br /> <br />WJC: I understand that but the legislators are the people we need to get support <br />from. <br /> <br />NP: I think there’s reason to hope that when the resolution comes before the <br />county council that they might brainstorm about locations and that would be a <br />better place for it to come from – so when the resolution comes before the <br />county council, yeah, we should all really give them our support - go testify <br />and maybe they’ll brainstorm and... <br /> <br />TL: Yes, and may wield a lot more authority in some of these issues than maybe <br />the state did. <br /> <br />JO: Well, on the other islands it’s the counties that run the ranges. <br /> <br />TS: Would the county require an EIS to do something like this? <br /> <br />WJC: The question was – from Tony – if the county is going to require an EIS also <br />for a gun range. <br /> <br />TL: I’m almost certain... <br /> <br />WJC: I would imagine... I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying to give up but <br />I’m trying to be realistic on this whole deal. If we’re not going to have the <br />chance of a snowball in Hilo Town why even bother? We need to find a way <br />to do it, right? I mean am I totally off? I mean, I think first before we even find <br />a site we need to figure out if this is even something that’s gonna be able to <br />be feasible and be supported and when push comes to shove are we going to <br />have support, are we going to have the people in the county that’s gonna say <br />to these people who are whining about noise and stupid stuff like that – to just <br />go back home. I mean, there comes a point when enough is enough, right? I <br />mean, you understand that, right? <br /> <br />JO: I’ve been fighting this fight. <br /> <br />WJC: I’m not arguing with you, I’m just trying to brainstorm this thing on how do we <br />get past this? <br /> <br /> I know where you’re talking about in Paauilo and there’s miles in between any <br />houses and if we’re looking at something like that as potentially having issues <br />– I cannot see any place else on this island that has as much space around <br />20 <br /> <br /> <br />
