Re: After-Hour Pool Use Pilot Program
Dear Councilman Yagong:
Thank you very much for having this hearing.
As you are aware, I have been participating with others in the County of Hawaii's
After-Hour Pool Use Pilot Program. The Department of Parks and Recreation staff have spent
many hours conceptualizing how this program will function throughout the County. We have had
five (5) different work meetings and work sessions thus far and numerous telephone conversations
to attempt to set the program up in a workable fashion for the better and increased utilization of
our County of Hawaii swimming pool facilities. The Parks and Recreation staff have done a very
thorough job working on this.
My personal experience in swimming at the Laupahoehoe pool has been very
enjoyable. I usually go into the pool facility at about 5:00 a.m. in the morning and I swim for
about thirty (30) to forty (40) minutes. I believe this program will be very popular throughout the
island for working people and others who just can't get to the pool during normal hours
throughout the day.
It's my understanding that the County of Hawaii Parks and Recreation Department
plans to hold a public hearing in a month or so to get further public input regarding the proposed
rules for the After-Hour Pool Use Program. This will give a wide opportunity to the numerous
pool users throughout the island to provide input on the specific plan After-Hour Pool Use rules
that are presently in draft form. "M. /0 ~ 9

The Council's interest in this program is appreciated because it is anticipated that
it will affect all of the areas of the island, including each of the Council districts.
If I can be of any assistance on this matter, please let me know. Once again, thank
you for your help.
Sincerely,
STANLEY . ROEHRIG
