Subject: land stewardship amendments
Aloha County Council Officials,
Please act on the County Charter amendments aimed at strengthening the 2% program?
Scores of citizens worked for years to start up the Public Access, Open
Space and Natural Resources Preservation program in 2006. It is funded by 2% of the
property tax revenue.
Last year voters approved an amendment calling for a 2% Administrator to acquire
properties, seek matching funds, and pursue grants for stewardship of the lands. Voters
also approved a second amendment to expedite grants to non-profits doing maintenance
and stewardship.
Please support the will of the
voters to preserve and protect our special places!
Mahalo,
Michael Menchetti
