Aloha Rob,
I too hope to hear from our Council rep and, as ever, encourage any one who cares to do the same.
I testified at the Planning Committee meeting yesterday.
It was not one of Hawaii County Council's finer moments.
Amendments?
These were ghosts being vaguely referred to.
The Council members had only just received them.
Classic what is NOT done to accomplish something.
Sadly -- pathetically! -- it appeared to me, sitting in that room yesterday, the circus had been brought to town by the once-and-no-longer powerful interests who really and truly thought they could pull off such a silly stunt! To these folks: Get over it! Influence and decision-making power in Puna is no longer concentrated in the hands and pocketbooks of a few.
No Amendments?
This could be / be-seen-to-be a bit knee-jerk and could even come back to kick the people who promote it. e-z brah...
Remember the Bill of Rights?
