Capital Improvement Project (CIP)
Community Park, Hawaiian Paradise Park
Dear Council Member,
I strongly support a "yes" vote for the release of CIP bond funds for a Community Park located in Hawaiian Paradise
Park. A walking park will allow a much needed safe -street environment to an area that has no sidewalks and few paved
roads for walking or biking.
The Hawaii Department of Health Physical Activity and Nutrition Plan 2013-2020 states: Regular physical activity is
important to overall health and wellbeing. Among adults, physical activity can lower the risk of premature death, chronic
disease, some forms of cancer, falls and associated injuries, and depression. For children and adolescents, physical
activity can improve bone health, cardio -respiratory fitness and muscle strength, and reduce body file and symptoms of
depression..
As a resident and property owner in Hawaiian Paradise Park the ability to have access to a sfae place to exercise would
improve my health and wellbeing along with many others I know in the area.
Thank you for your service to the people of Hawaii.
Respectfully,
Jacqueline Gardner RN,FNP
