So the breaking point for spending was 11.7. MIlllion?

There's not many people left up in that homeless camp anyway, just lots of empty tents. Our mayor is a failure.

11.7. MIlllion
Most of that was "free" because State reimbursed County expenses, right?
Totally worth it to solve all the governance issues and grant homesteads to every beneficiary on the waiting list.
Wait, none of that happened? What did we just pay for?

From the opinion section of today's Tribune :
"Blight on mauna
Last week, I had to drive to Kona over the saddle. I cannot express the amount of shock and outrage I felt at seeing the homeless encampment on conservation lands.
I used to look forward to that drive as I often saw herds of big horn sheep and mountain goats grazing there in the saddle.
What I saw instead was a sprawling homeless encampment complete with port-a-potties! What a desecration!
How can they say the new telescope will desecrate the mauna when they have already done so with their encampment? How can they say they are the “protectors” when it is clear that they are the defilers?
Why are they being allowed to remain? Why haven’t they been removed as the protesters to the wind farm were?
They are clearly in even more contempt of the law, and, I’m sure, have caused far more serious damage to the flora and fauna.
Has Hawaii become so lawless that its citizens must fend for themselves because the rule of law doesn’t apply to some groups? What are we to do when the governor, mayor, agencies, etc., no longer enforce the law?
I will be very happy to see the big horn sheep and mountain goats return and the blight on the mauna that the protesters created removed. The protesters have engineered their own arrest in order to gain sympathy for causes that have nothing to do with the mauna.
They do not have my sympathy. I am tired of all the whining and drama and lack of regard for the devastation and divisions they are causing. If they have suffered injustices, they need to take it up with the appropriate agencies, and that is not the Thirty Meter Telescope."
The silent majority is fed up and soon to make some noise.

Finally! Conclusive proof that TMT is the root cause of all these problems!
https://www.hawaiitribune-herald.com/2019/12/10/hawaii-news/oha-investigation-finds-7-8m-in-possible-fraud/
The public agency is tasked with improving the well-being of Native Hawaiian citizens through community advocacy and assistance, including home and business loans and scholarships.
The review documented shoddy record keeping, inadequate oversight, unlawful procedures, missing documents, conflicts of interest, and contractors failing to perform work, officials said.

Please go back a few dozen pages, where I said this is all a smokescreen for OHA corruption. Then wait for the spokesperson to blame these findings on retaliation for their support of the protest.
