The General Plan calls for the formation of Action Committees, which would be appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the County Council. The withdrawal of one of the initial nominees compelled the Planning Department to identify and nominate an alternate who is eager to participate in the CDP process as an Action Committee member. We would appreciate your attention on this matter and are requesting that this item be placed on the October 19, 2010, Planning Committee agenda for discussion and with confirmation of this individual on the October 20, 2010, full Council agenda. It is my pleasure to inform you that I have appointed the following individual to the South Kohala CDP Action Committee: 1. John Hoover (4 -year term) a former educator certified to teach in New York, California, and Hawaii, is the minister of the Hokuloa United Church of Christ in Puako. As a former Peace Corp volunteer, he taught both high school and college level English in Ethiopia for two years. John has lived in South Kohala for 20 years and is on the Board of Directors for the Puako Community Association and is a member of the Waikoloa Village Association. John was a dedicated participant in the development of the South Kohala CDP and supported the process by providing meeting space at the Hokuloa Church. John has extensive experience in helping groups bridge cultural and ethnic issues and is an advocate of using the consensus building model in the decision - making process. 911 Coors NO.
