Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Communication No. 239.5, reports as
follows:
Communication No. 239.5 from Mayor Harry Kim dated April 23, 2007, states that the South
Kohala Community Development Plan (CDP) process has been initiated by the County of
Hawaii Planning Department. It further states that 11 names were previously forwarded for
review and confirmation but unfortunately one of the nominees is no longer able to fulfill the
commitment of serving on the South Kohala Steering Committee.
Communication No. 239.5 introduces an alternate nominee who is eager to participate in the
CDP process and forwards to the Council for review and confirmation to the newly created
South Kohala CDP, Mr. Sherman Warner.
Communication No. 239.5 states that Mr. Sherman Warner has lived in Waimea for three years
and spent the last twenty-five years as General Manager for a theatrical production and
management company. Mr. Warner would like to help build a fair and just community that
upholds our traditional values and guards the culture of one of the world's treasured places.
At the May 15, 2007 Planning Committee meeting, there were no statements from the public
presented on this matter.
Council Chair Pete Hoffmann stated that when he met Mr. Warner he found Mr. Warner to be
very articulate and had an understanding of issues facing the South Kohala community.
