John Wilson drafted two positions based on earlier board comments and newsletter
feedback. A motion was made by Alan Kaufman and seconded by Elliott Krash to
adopt draft 3. A motion to table
this motion was made by Dick Mayer and seconded by Gina Flammer.
This motion carried. Discussion:
Bottom paragraph of draft 3 a summary not included in resolution
statement. John McDonald asked for
further discussion within the Water Committee before a motion is considered.
A resolution at the next BOD meeting is sought based on a presentation by
the Water Committee with further work on the drafts.
Community planning should drive our position, not water meters. Crater
Road Position:
On a motion by Dick Mayer and a second by Erwin DePonte, KCA should not
take a position on this issue as we have not received a clear position from the
community. Discussion: According to
Councilmembers Kalani English and Charmaine Tavares if a Crater Rd. resident
wanted 1/2 acre zoning for an ohana unit they would look favorably on it.
Motion carries. Bike

John Wilson has called the Dept. of Transportation
