Subject: Finance Committee: SUPPORT Bill 38
Aloha,
This bill is a powerful anti -poverty measure thatwill materially support low-income people throughout
the substandard subdivisions of Puna. For subdivisions with covenants, this will unburden all dues -
paying residents. For subdivisions without mandated road repair fees, this will be a great tool for
recruiting reticent residents into the existing road repair efforts. This bill, if enacted, would lower the
amount of automobile suspension repair and maintenance faced by residents on substandard
roadways, and restore more equity into a situation in which residents carry the burden of road wear -and -
tear from nonresident vehicles.
I imagine that it is not lightly that the County would consider lowering its amount of property tax revenue,
so I very much appreciate this initiative.
Please vote YES on Bill 38!
