Commission. It's currently November 1st, 2021, 6:00 p.m. I would like to go over a quick
announcement. Because of the Coronavirus COVID-19 Emergency and State and Federal
guidance on large meetings or gatherings, and pursuant to the Mayor's Proclamations
regarding COVID-19, the Redistricting Commission meetings are currently not open to
the public to attend in-person until further notice. However, members of the public may

for your understanding.

ANNOUNCEMENTS / CLOSING REMARKS
KOSSOW: All right. We are currently at 6:30 p.m. There's no testifiers. Correct, Relley?
Okay. Nobody is online. Nobody has come to Hale Halawai. So, I would like to close this
meeting this evening. Just a quick reminder here. We have another public hearing at 6:00
p.m. for Council District 8. And that's going to be located at the West Hawaii Civic
Center Council Chamber,November 4th. And we have a public hearing at 6:00 p.m. on
November 8th, at the Waimea Community Center. And then we have our regular meeting
session, 7th Session, 9:30 a.m. on November 12th. And that's a Friday, because Thursday
is Veterans' Day. So, we're going to go ahead and adjourn the meeting. And thank you
for the staff for coming over to Kona today.
Respectfully Submitted,
