SUBJECT: Removal of Parking Meter Heads
Jiro A. Sumada
Deputy Chief Engineer
Attached is a copy of the Downtown Improvement Association's letter dated November 6, 1998,
concerning the subject matter.
We are waiting for the Council's concurrence to proceed with our proposal to remove the parking
meter heads from the areas affected by the parking meter moratorium.
We anticipate that all the affected meter heads can be removed within one month from the date of
approval and receipt of the funds to purchase caps for the meter posts.
You may call me at 961-8341 if you have any questions.

SUBJECT: SUGGESTED REMOVAL OF PARKING RETER HEADS
Dear Mr. Yagong,
Your request by phone earlier this week in regards to the County removing parking meter
heads downtown and HDIA providing funds for caps on the meter poles was discussed by the
Executive Board. The request received a favorable
HDI A Parking Committee and the IIIA
response.
On behalf of the Executive Board of the Hilo Downtown Improvement Association
(HDIA), I would like to express its support for the recommendations of its Parking Committee
listed on November 5, 1998 (enclosed). Please notice that we are willing to fund up to S5Q0.
The DIA is very pleased with your proposal and appreciates your efforts as well as those
of the County personnel involved.
The parking situation downtown is a major concern of the HDIA. It is an important part
of the revitalization of historic downtown Hilo. l
Sincerely,
Ken Okimoto
Office Administrator
