Aloha James,
For the record I first took this issue to Emily Naeole. She is our district representative and it was appropriate. She wrote a letter to Bruce McClure last December 10.
I kept checking with her office through April and was told that Bruce had never replied.
So I finally went to the desk at Public Works and complained about no reply on this request from Bruce. I was given a copy of Bruce's reply to Emily Naeole of December 24th. McClure had replied in a very timely manner.
So apparently Emily did get a response. She failed to follow through though. I don't know if Emily read the response and/or understood that it basically said nothing. I would have appreciated at least knowing there was a response.
So I picked up the topic again in a face to face with Bruce at the Pahoa budget meeting and got a meeting date with him. Hunter Bishop went with me. Ron Thiel was there.
We may finally be making a little progress after ten months.

Assume the best and ask questions.
