Comm. 25-007 <br /> From: John Carse <br /> To: PONC Testimonv <br /> Subject: Testimony <br /> Date: Wednesday,January 8,2025 3:43:03 PM <br /> Dear Commissioners, <br /> I would like to provide testimony concerning the Na Maka Haloa O Waipio <br /> 2025 Stewardship Grant for Pohoiki. When this organization was given $119,519.00 in 2021, one of the <br /> conditions was that annual overviews be provided. Has this documentation been provided? If so, when <br /> will it be available for public review? If not, why not? <br /> Also, the 2021 grant included the purchase of an all-terrain vehicle. Has this been bought? If so, <br /> where is it and what is it being used for? <br /> Since this is the only forum I know of to discuss the Pohoiki PONC land purchased by the County in <br /> 2017, 1 would like to include some additional concerns. There are now No Trespassing signs posted on <br /> this parcel (photographs attached). Who put them there and why? Also, absolutely no one knows where <br /> the property line of this parcel is. How can we get the Pohoiki PONC land surveyed and the boundaries <br /> clearly marked? <br /> Also, is there a more recent biological survey of the parcel than Flora-Fauna Study of the Pohoiki <br /> PONC Property published in October 2017? If so, is it available to the public? Is the archeological <br /> survey done in 2016 available? Has a more recent archeological survey been done? Is it available to the <br /> public? <br /> And finally, how did the community-at-large benefit from the $119,519.00 Stewardship Grant for the <br /> improvement of Pohoiki awarded to Na Maka Haloa O Waipio in 2021? <br /> Sincerely, <br /> John Carse <br /> wp�� �rf`�`"� r��r�ru rel/���� �+ , ..r .i�` "�' �°,• r a <br /> 4 <br /> , <br /> �y <br /> y <br /> a <br /> r <br /> o <br /> t- <br />
