TO THE MEMBERS OF THE COUNTY COUNCIL: RE: GRANT HONEY FOR POLICE SUPPORT
I am in support of the grant monies being continued, so that the
effort to wipe out marijuana will continue.
About a year ago my children were playing and climbing trees in the
bushes on our own street here in Leilani Estates. One of them fell in
the tall grass and scratched his leg on a metal spike sticking up. I
believe it was a "booby trap." The children told me that while they were
up in the trees they saw several potted plants in neat rows.
Another time my children were playing hide-n-seek in the bushes.
One of them came out from behind a tree holding a potted plant that was
almost two feet tall.* The police were called to investigate. While we
were waiting for the police, my new neighbor came toyer to talk with my
husband and me, to find out why the kids were in those bushes. *They also
saw several more potted plants in the same place. This incident also took
place on our street.
We have seen the helicopter many times. It's great to see the heli-
copter and the workers getting plants and destroying them. This is some-
thing that needs to be done, so this place will be safer for our children
and a better place to live.
Sincerely yours,
pia .
