"I strongly suggest all those living Pahoa side of Maku'u start your own committee and start meeting with the County."
Absolutely agree, Orchidlandguy!
It looked promising in the early stages of our committee negotiations with the State and County officials. Nothing substantial was forthcoming in writing hence the recommendation of the committee to the Board to hire a land use attorney to represent our Assoc. Just how much road safety assistance & protection, (indemnification) under a State of emergency we can anticipate , well, who knows.
But I think it is quite obvious to us that our residents off Makuu could be subjected to unsafe conditions, very soon. The Board President also recommended calling Warren Lee's office.
The woman who was threatened is a good friend of mine. It happened , she was terrorized by it. This woman is a capable hardworking individual. Most of her life, including now. she has run her own business . Just a few short years ago she was the campaign manager for a rather unknown young man running against an incumbent . He is now our Councilman.
Once again , it is our Association that loses.
On a positive note,The Association meeting went well yesterday. A certain disruptive fellow was not in the crowd and almost all had the spirit of working together. Several volunteered to serve on committees. I think there's a possibility here.
