Larry Brown, of the CoH Planning Department just posted this on a PCDP web site. It is a status update on the Mayor's (lack of) action regarding appointments to the Action Committee, the first step in implementation of the Puna Community Development Plan.
As Follows:
Aloha,
I've just confirmed that no communication from the Mayor to the Council with appointments to the PCDP AC was transmitted last Thursday. I also just found out that there are no more committee meetings by the Council scheduled for June. The next committee meetings won't be until July 7, with June 24th the deadline for submittal of items for the agenda. That would make July 22 the earliest possible confirmation date for PCDP AC appointments.
Mahalo,
Larry

By way of background: The Mayor is expected to select nine names from thirty six applicants and submit them to the county council for approval. So far he has selected four and submitted those four to the council in an incomplete way so that at this time - six months after taking office - none have been officially nominated.
Progressive? Regressive?
Seems like a case of "hurry up and slow down" to me.

Assume the best and ask questions.
