' I urge you to pass Resolution 12699. The lack of animal control in West
COUi v Y lI= NI:W,"-,I! Hawaii is intolerable. We have many people who are afraid to walk in their
own neighborhoods for fear of being hurt by roaming dogs. I have had this
experience myself, and would be glad to testify at a future meeting that I
feel should be held in West Hawaii. I walk my dogs on leashes, but always
meet several dogs that are not on leashes or being supervised in any way.
Some of these dogs are very aggressive. Our Humane Society is
ineffective in the area of Animal control. 1 don't know where their money
goes, (maybe to executive salaries and cars, but certainly not to effective
animal control,
On Kohanalki Rd. we have had many incidents of roaming dogs going on
to private properties and killing pets, as well as poultry and small livestock
such as sheep. We need fewer administrators and more animal control
officers , with longer on duty hours.
This is another good example as to why we, in West Hawaii need our own
City Government and Municipality. We do not get response from the
County unless we, as individuals spend endless hours and our own money
in order to get heard.
