How can you raise my taxes on Ag zoned lots in IVanawale when your Bill 1 ~ 1,
draft 3, will not raise taxes on Ag zoned lots in Paradise Park? These
properties are in the same ov~~sdent lc~ass.
Article 1 1, Section 19-90(c) of Chapter 19 of the Hawaii County Code
specifically states that the tax rates for of property shad be
expressed in terms of tax per ~ 1,000 of net taxable value.
Resolution B4 01 states that the Unimpproved Residential class shall be
taxed at -10.00 per ~ 1,000 of assessed valuation.
With a ~ 100 minimum tax I would be taxed at ~~0.00 per ~ 1,000 of assessed
valuation. This is discrimination and violates Article 1, Section 5, of the
Constitution of the State of Hawaii.
I request that you defer this bill until you can determine if it is legal.
Sincerely
Rosalyn Macabio

Testimony opposed to Gill 1.21, Draft 3.
~°lave three vacant lots next to my home in Nanawale. I raised my family
of four children on this property and I now live on a limited income.
VIII 121, Draft 3, would raise my tax burden by X225 per year which I would
not be able to pay. I would lose my property.
Why are you planning raise any taxes when you would not be raising taxes
on more expensive property?
I think any minimum tax is illegal and [dill 121, Draft 3, should not be
passed.
