There has only been 12 properties? <br />out of possible 166 properties proposed by Citizens of Hawaii Island that has been acquired? <br />This is the will of the people.lt should be honored. <br />Ordinance reads? " THESE LANDS PURCHASED WITH OUR PROPERTY TAX MONEY <br />BE HELD FOREVER FOR THE USE AND ENJOYMENT FOR THE CITIZENS OF HAWAII COUNTY"? <br />There is approx. $19 million in the fund, why is it not being used for its intended purpose? <br />However, our property taxes keep getting raised? <br />Why is the County stockpiling this money & not using it as intended? Shouldn't some of this <br />money be used for maintenance of these acquired lands? Why should this money be used for <br />maintenance of County Parks? This is not what it was intended for? Maybe County needs to do <br />some quality control? <br />Mahalo <br />1 <br />Comm. No. 3.1.13 <br />
