Hawaii County Charter Commission -6 December 14, 2018 <br />STATEMENTS <br />FROM THE <br />PUBLIC ON <br />AGENDA ITEMS: <br />ALAN BROWN: <br />Everybody's continents are important and so, I want to make sure that we receive <br />them appropriately. <br />Mr. Henricks if you could call the roll please. <br />MR. HENRICKS: Mr. Bergin- (here), Ms. Galimba (here), Mr. Hamann (here), <br />Mr. Hopkins, Ms. Leithead-Todd (present), Ms. Rice, Mr. Roehrig (here), Ms. <br />Saquing (here), Ms. Springer (here), Ms. Zelko-Schlueter, Chair Adams (here). <br />Chair Adams, you have 8 members in attendance at this time. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Thank you, so we have excused, Commissioner Rice, <br />Commissioner Hopkins, and Commissioner Zelko. Although I anticipate that <br />Commissioner Hopkins will arrive at some point. <br />The Chair directed the Commission to proceed to the next order of business, <br />Statements from the Public on Agenda Items. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Alrighty. At this time I would like to move on into statements <br />from the public. If I could ask Kona, do you have statements from the public in <br />Kona? <br />MR. RUEDY: Good Afternoon Chair, we have five testifiers here in Kona today. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Okay, so why don't we start with you and then if I could ask that <br />when you come forward to testify, if you could provide your name, the agenda <br />item on which you are speaking, and then understand that there is a three minute <br />limit per agenda item that you are speaking on. I appreciate that. So our first <br />testifier from Kona. <br />MR. RUEDY: Okay, our first testifier here in Kona is going to be Alan Brown in <br />support of CA -9, opposing CA -7, and to be followed by Keoni Fox in support of <br />CA -9, opposing CA -7. Go ahead and state your name for the record. <br />Proposal No. CA -7 in opposition and Proposal No. CA -9 in support. <br />MR. BROWN: My name is Alan Brown. I am a resident in Waiki`i Hawai`i with <br />property, I am testifying for myself and property along the Kohala coast. I had <br />the opportunity to grow up along the Kohala coast in 1950's, and 60's, and 70's <br />when there was very little of any human population along the coast and now we <br />have hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people. So I would love to see that <br />the two percent fund remain in effect and that the proposal of providing a staff <br />member would be approved and also I am opposing CA -7 for amending that <br />program. Thank you. <br />CHR. ADAMS: Thank you Mr. Brown. Next testifier please. <br />Page 2 <br />
