Council Testimony
Subject:
Resolution 328715
My name is John Winter. I am a resident of North Kohala and live very near Niuli i and the properties under
consideration for purchase by the County. I therefore support Resolution 328-15 calling for the start of
negotiations by the County to purchase the lands at Niuli'i.
I believe this corridor is very important to preserve. It's time we preserve the Kula Iwi, the homelands of Kamehameha and the
places from which he began the unification of the islands. The area has a rich cultural heritage and my family go there often for
walks. The Kohala community has repeatedly identified this as an important area for recreation. All three of these properties
have been among the top priority lands for purchase with the Open Space Fund for several years. Thank you for considering my
input.
