QUEEN EMMA FOUNDATION QUEEN LILIUOKALANI TRUST During the just-closed legislative session, several bills were introduced seeking to address R.M. Towle coRPORAnoN land use issues. House Bill No. 109 was one such bill and was submitted to the Governor RIEHM OWENSBV PLANNERS ARCHITECHTS SAM O. H[ROTA, INC. a5 HB 109, HD1 SD2 DC1. This bill seeks an expansion of the Rural District to scrluLER DrvISCON of DR HoRTON, [NC. accommodate golf courses and other land uses. HB 109 provides for the respective ssFM rnTERNArrorvAL, rnc. counties to convene an advisory group to develop proposals for submittal to the State suRErv KoHALA coRPORAnoN Legislature at its next session. We strongly recommend that the County of Hawaii utilize nTLE GUARANTY Escaow sERVlces, INC. the process identifed in HB 109 and convene an advisory group to work towards TSA CORPORATION wAIMEA wATER SERVICE, wc. development of proposals for submittal, and that Hawaii Leeward Planning Conference be WASTE MANAGEMENT OF HAWAII included to participate in that effort. WATER RESOURCES INTERNATIONAL, INC. WES THOMAS ASSOCIATES, INC. B2C8USe it IS UrlClear What the Intent Of Bill $O is, we are concerned that there has not been wESr HAwnv comcRETE enou h com rehensive review and consideration of the issues involved including and not WILSON OKAMOTO CORPORATION 9 P wIMeERLV ALLISON TONG a Goo limited to; the dedication of private roads for public access, the unintended consequence of the taking of private property for public use absent just compensation, and risk management to clarify responsibility for maintenance and capital improvements. In the past, you have heard me quote Thomas Jefferson and state that sometimes "Delay is preferable to error". I contend that this is one of those occasions and recommend that Bill 80 be held in its present form. Mahalo for the opportunity to express our views on this matter. ~ 1 1 I P.O. BOX 2159 Comm.
