Subject: Higher ag taxes, Restrictions on personal uses
This is the terrible idea, raising the egg taxes this way and in restricting people that are smaller farmers by creating these
boundaries having small Ohana buildings for workers or helpers or parts of family is very important and a small farm and
it's something that we've always had on Hawaii and always should have
It's OK that we want it maybe restrict some areas for too many short term vacation rentals however there are places
where is very appropriate and does actually bring in more money than help the economy than what the hotels would
help trickle down to us.
This is not where we should be collecting more money we should be getting it more from the larger fancier houses, and
for more value added taxes.
There should be agricultural incentives, maybe not as much for cattle and sheep, and other animals that are livestock as
there are now but definitely for everyone there should be a support system to help generate more food on our island
