I am a citizen of and property owner in Hawaii county who is very concerned that the mayor wants to borrow $56
million dollars and the county council would even consider such a request. When is it a good time to already owe
$250 million plus and want to borrow more money? In the civilian world, that would be NEVER. It should also be
NEVER for any government entity. At this time, I believe it is not prudent to borrow money when we already know
that tax revenues are declining to the point they will not cover next years' projected budget. Instead, the council
and mayor should be working together to come up with a plan to reduce expenses in order to balance the budget;
not look for ways to increase the tax burden of the citizens.
Thank you for considering voting NO on this issue.
