From:mardi strong To:WPCtestimony Subject:My view Date:Monday, October 28, 2024 12:41:52 PM Hawaii notes Start off with natural beauty sites and then you go to climate mitigation and then you wanna jump to climate adaption labeling something in urban character. Guidelines is not a place I wanna live urban character guidelines resort area for the industrial center urban neighborhood center rural neighborhood character guidelines, do you really think you’re gonna tell people how they must have their yards if I own my property nobody’s gonna tell me how it should look water system standards domestic consumption guidelines you guys are already doing that the golf courses and the chains hotels that are there their yards are green grass with no natural remedy growing on it Indicators, collaborative, bio, cultural stewardship. I don’t even like the way that sounds now this plan that I’m looking at. I’m just going through the table of contents. It sounds like you guys came up with this while you people thought you had power Over all the normal citizens of the world really you don’t realize those days are changing and you’re gonna lose your power. What does the stakeholder have to do with me a resident of my own property? They should have nothing to do with it. So on 1.0 the introduction you have organizing funding for projects that align with the general vision and goals so is this why you will not give any money to the people in Hawaii who’ve murdered and taken their homes from and now you’re trying to just take their land with giving them no money, you can’t just take things and rearrange the constitution doesn’t work like that. Ask anybody on a reservation is not a reservation not one island over there is a reservation. People need to stand up and speak. I do not like this statement you’re trying to spill out the preservation of our natural beauty and historical sites a system of principal thoroughfares highway streets and public access to the shoreline. Are you kidding me? Do you really think you’re gonna go in? Tell everyone this is your little public access when their whole life the whole shoreline‘s been public access. I’ll tell you right now. This is not gonna fly . I have a problem when I hear you guys say on such other matters that may in the council judgment permit, promote the general welfare and health and prosperity of its people. I want to know who the people on this council how they can think they can God you can’t, so anything the council does should be voted on by the people and these people are gonna wake up you have not dumb down everybody And it’s funny how you state the Hawaii became a 50th state of the United States but that never really actually happened. They’ve been floating in limbo for years. That battle is still on today and the reason I believe you burned most of that heritage away. And I do realize this is public opinion. It’s my opinion. And now on 1.4 it’s funny how you guys open up with respects the culture. If we respected the culture you wouldn’t be tearing it apart like this going against every fabric that the culture has you trying to diminish and I’m not the only person who can see this . And when you say his strikes a balance among economic and social and community and environmental priorities, so the peoples priority is number one not the feelings or the notions of anybody on the council or the assumption of the council member feelings it’s about the law. And it’s so funny when you put me the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the future generations to meet their own needs. Well you’re doing that already by pricing
