Dear Mayor Yamashiro:
Last spring the County Council was instrumental in supplying new playground
equipment for Keikiland Playground. St. Joseph Elementary School shares the
playground with the general public and was very grateful for the Council's support for
this project. Through the efforts of Councilwoman Bobby Jean Leithead-Todd and Ms.
Cindy Lucas, former St. Joseph graduate, the playground equipment was paid for and
installed for all the children's' use. Our children particularly made good use of the
equipment and your efforts are very much appreciated by the students, parents, and
faculty at St. Joseph Elementary School.
In an effort to show our support to the County Council several of our school
families would like to donate park benches for the Keikiland Playground. I am attaching
a photo of the bench type and durability. We would like the Council to know that their
efforts are much appreciated. This is but a small way for us to give back to the
community, which has supported our children.
We are seeking Council approval for three (3) park benches. In speaking with
Officer Jason Shinoda, Community Policing Officer, we will coordinate placement of
said benches with the Hilo Police Department to provide visibility and security. Upon
Council approval we will make the necessary contacts for placement and installation. If
there are additional steps we must take, please advise us.
We look forward to a continued good relationship with your office and the
County Council. We will wait for further communication with your office. Again thank
you for ygpfipast support ta:therehildren of Hilo.
