Unfortunately, someone went into the <br />bathroom and broke all of the sinks and toilets. The outside water fountain and <br />maintenance storage lockers were also damaged. A person who does this has no <br />respect for the Waimea park users, lacks community pride, and feels that breaking the <br />restroom equipment has no consequences. We just upgraded this bathroom, and now <br />to repair the facility, it cost approximately $12,000 in <br />Waltjen, Director of Parks and Recreation. <br /> <br />and community members are the ones who will lose out due to this <br /> police department, community and business <br />leaders to determine solutions to prevent further vandalism. If you have any information <br />about who could have done this, please contact the police department, Waltjen said. <br /> <br />To report information about this incident, please contact the Police non-emergency <br />number at 935-3311. <br /> <br />If damage or vandalism is found at any of your parks and beaches, please inform Parks <br />and Recreation as soon as possible at (808) 961-8311. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br />
