Aloha Honorable Co ncil embers,
How can Mr. Zendo Kern be qualified to be Planning Director when he
does not have a degree?
I can't get a job as an entry level planner in the County Planning
Department without a degree but Mr. Kern can be Planning Director?
How is that? He must have a lot of powerful friends.
It is not pono that in 2021 in Hawaii County you get jobs based on who
you know instead of what you know.
REJECT this nomination and find someone who has a degree and knows
a thing or two about planning.
Sincerely,
Aaron Hannon
Comm. No.
