RE: Bill 75
Aloha Committee and County Council Members,
Thank you for taking up Bill 75,Amending Chapter 14,Article 1 of the Hawaii County Code 1983,2016 Edition,as amended,Relating to
Alcoholic Beverages.Bill 75 prohibits the consumption of alcohol at Honaunau Boat Ramp and Manini Beach and Napo'opo'o as well.It is
great to see the community responding to this long standing problem at our South Kona Beach Parks.Thank you so much to Councilwoman
Maile David for listening to the local South Kona community and acting in our service. Excessive drinking at these beach parks,whether it's
locals or tourists,sets a bad example for our children,driving families away from the
Parks and eventually become a public safety risk.When they are finished at the park they all get in their vehicles and pull out onto the
highway,putting themselves and others at risk.
Please vote to amend by supporting Bill 75.
Sincerely,
Jack Kelly
