Minutes of Membership Meeting of February 10, 2002:

Committee Reports:
Policies & Procedures - Chair Daley reported contracting
with the TGM, Nancy Cabral of Dan-Lum Rentals and Management on
a 90 day basis and on the search for a General Manager. The Policies
& Procedures committee meet every Thursday at 9:00 a.m., in
the library.
Budget & Finance - Chair Graber reported we have received
clean audits from our CPA. Our tax returns were filed on time.
We are in line with our previous year's budget. Copies of financial
reports are available in the office. Director Lundquist is pursuing
past due accounts, and we are considering foreclosure on some
properties.
Legal & Government - Chair Moe is also on a committee
about the noise nuisance probem.
The committee is looking into financing for road paving, and Councilman
Safarik was introduced, who will be submitting a Resolution to
the County Council asking that HPP be designated as an "Im-provement
District," in order to get alternate funding. He spoke about
Puna, and using public funds that will be paid back by the community
over the years.
Councilman Safarik also spoke about rezoning three of HPP's 20
acre parcels to Mixed Use/Commercial and rezoning of the agriculture
lots to rural, which will legitimize persons living on their property.
The next step on the noise problem would be to identify who is
for or against it, then meet with the County to try and resolve
the problem.
Road Advisory - Chair Lundquist explained that the committee
is looking to find a way to pave all the roads. Next month Beach
Road from Kaloli to Paradise, and 28th Street from Shower to Paradise
Drive will be paved. If we get a loan, we plan to pave the fire
roads first, 28th, 21st, 16th, 8th and Beach. Then finish the
main roads, then the roads that cost the most to be maintained.
A suggestion was made from the membership that after the priority
roads are paved, if there is not enough funding to pave all the
roads, to select roads by lottery.
Paving the roads won't raise road maintenance fees. No decision
has been made about putting in 4-way stop signs.
The TGM noted chip seal (as done in HOVE) was not recommended
for HPP by contractors due to rain, terrain and traffic.
Activity Center - Chair Tinker reported the swap meets
are doing poorly due to the many Farmers Markets in the
Puna area. The plumbing in the Activity Centerhas been repaired.
Unfinished Business:
Status of Lawsuits - Civil Case 65-95 is finished. In Lerro
vs. Paradise Hui Hanalike, Mr. Lerro passed away, and unless
a member of his family makes an appeal, that lawsuit will be dismissed
on July 3, 2002.
New Business:
Budget - The budget was in the newsletter. Audit and annual
audit were listed twice in error.
Zoning - At the February General Meeting a motion was made
that the Board write a letter to the County in support of George
Curlee's variance for the repair shop at 19th and Paradise The
letter was written. He was granted a variance for five years.
Malamalama School - Walter Bell reported the school has
leased the property at 26th and Makuu from HPP since 1980. The
lease calls for two half scholarships to students selected
by the HPP Board, and provides a voting seat on their Board, there
were no volunteers at this time to service on their board.
Member Input: Kathy Houtin asked if the parcel at Kololi &
14th is being rezoned to commercial, Councilman Safarik advised
no zoning changes will be made by the County without public input.
A member asked why we don't give the roads to the County. Councilman
Safarik advised that a consensus is needed of what all the people
want and that the county is not in a position to take on all the
present roads in private subdivisions.
William Babchuk put a waterline across a street, and paid $500,
with the understanding it would be returned, and asked for it
back. The TGM explained those funds are used for legal purposes,
she will check the files to see what wording was stated about
a refund.
Ruth Mizuba asked that the Board consider developing a park on
some of the Association land, with volunteers.
Anyone who wants to be on the waterline on Paradise Drive, must
get their line in prior to that area of the road being repaved.
Juliet Mondal spoke on the rooster farms noise problem and
read a prepared statement. She would like Conditions, Covenants
& Restrictions enacted against rooster farming in HPP.
Mary Hyslip also spoke on the noise pollution of roosters. She
was previously informed that the HPP attorney would look into
the matter. Director Moe advised our attorney's legal opinion
is that because we are designated agricultural or rural we cannot
legally stop the farms. Walter recommended petitions, and attending
en mass, to the County Council meetings, who will then try to
work with the neighbors to find a common ground.
Election Results: District 5, Wayne Graber was elected.
District 7, candidates Gerald Silva was elected. District 8, John
Verich was elected.
