Iii From: Britt Craven To: Council Testimony Subject: Hawaii County Bill 101-NO Vote 1019 NOV 1 ^� Ali 0" 24 Date: Monday,November 18,2019 7:52:36 AM This Bill by banning the use of"herbicides" is far too broad. The chemical component found in RoundUp called glyphosate is not found in all herbicides. There are alternatives, including "all natural" products that exist that can accomplish the same results, at a far lesser cost than to simply ban "all" herbiciding. This, as are numerous forms of proposed legislation at the National,State, and local level is rushed, and needs to be thought through with greater due diligence before being passed. I would strongly encourage the County Council members to vote "NO" to this bill as it is currently written. There is a solution. Comm. No INAt() Ref.To: V f uounQ1 Ref. Date NOV 2 0 2019
