Kua 0 Ka La <br /> y New Century Publica i f <br /> Aloha Windward Planning Commissioners, <br /> My name is Ikaika Rodenhurst and I am the current Governing Board Chair for Kua O Ka La New <br /> Century Charter School. I previously served the County of Hawaii as the Director of the <br /> Department of Public Works and currently work as a construction management consultant. I am <br /> also a parent for my child in grade 2 at Kua O Ka La. <br /> As such, I am vested in the long term success of this important community school. The <br /> Governing Board is informed on a monthly basis on all aspects of the short and long term <br /> relocation and recovery efforts of our school by School Founder and Development Director Susie <br /> Osborne. <br /> We were able bring the facility into full compliance in order to operate a school in this location <br /> including building, fire, and ADA codes. The use permits were already in place as Connections <br /> Charter School had been at this site in 2002 for many years. <br /> Nani Mau Cindy Cui then executed a Development and Acquisition Agreement with our <br /> supporting non-profit Ho'oulu Lahui. This requires rezoning our current site from Ag 10 to Ag 5, <br /> then subdividing those 5 acres. <br /> This acquisition will ensure that our school has a permanent home and is able to provide high <br /> quality public education for generations. Over the past 6 years, we have become very settled in <br /> our Pana'ewa location, with school gardens and playgrounds all in place. <br /> Mahalo for your consideration of this Rezone application before you today. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> G� <br /> St ven Ikaika Rodenhurst, PE <br />
