“Aloha Chair. Aloha everyone. I'm at my private residence. Right now I have one adult at home with me, Koa Hodgins and three minors but soon my daughter has a dentist appointment because the other week she did not and they will be leaving so then I will only have two minors at home with me.”

“I don't... So when I describe, like, to somebody who's not familiar with Maui, I do say North Shore of Maui. So that doesn't necessarily... And it's interesting because we call it all of that stuff now. Like, we don't say the West Shore of Maui or the South Shore of Maui. We could. You know, I guess North Shore is a little bit more fancy. But... I do describe it like that. And I kind of prefer it over the playa haiku because then you just skip over Kuao and Maliko and the rest of the other places in the areas. No different than the Kihei Makena. There's so many other places that we just kind…”

“I think that's why when I say it to other people who aren't from here, it's something like they have a North Shore, us too, I guess.”

“Thank you, Chair. I'm okay with this section of South Maui today and including the conclusion that's on Granicus 46 as the conclusion to it all. And kind of, well, finding a blend, because I appreciate in the conclusion on 46, Granicus 46, kind of tying back the very beginning of where we are today and kind of incorporating you know, like how it impacts today, but kind of this language too, from the CPAC and South Maui today, and then having its own conclusion and finding a way to end it. The only question I have is, and I'm okay to keep it in, But when I think about Kihei, maybe only Makena…”

“Thank you, Chair. I agree with Member Rollins-Fernandez. I enjoy the specificity in this language as well. And I do think it goes beyond just development. Sometimes it's just negligent land uses that we have that we don't properly address. In the last few weeks, we did have fires at several spaces on Maui that we know to be fire prone, and we're not really doing the best at maintaining that. And those are county-owned parcels. And so I do appreciate, like, This reminding us as well that we have a duty to figure out the causes of fires and prevent them efficiently. I understand Deputy Director…”

“Aloha, Chair. Aloha, everyone. Similar to Member Rollins-Fernandez, it is clearly fall break. My husband just came home this morning and we have three minors at home with us as well.”

“Thank you, Chair. I was going to ask very similar questions to you, and then you kind of, you know, asked right when I was kind of raising my hand, so great timing, but... That's kind of what I, right? That was kind of what I was going to ask because granted I know that the, you know, this version of a layer of zoning, because we have so many, we have like four, is just one of the many. But as we're doing the H3, H4 process, you know, we have to get consent. And even though that's kind of a like for like, whether or not, however people want to interpret it, we did intend for like for like,…”

“Chair, thank you. I don't necessarily need it now, but I just wanted to build on your question because I think you're right. We're going to need to have something to back us up in order to make these changes. Thank you.”

“Sorry, Tara. I'm going to change the conversation real quick, if that's okay with you. Along with your son Nahiku's birthday, it's also my cousin, brother, Conan, come on, UU Lindsay's birthday, and my nephew's birthday. Apparently, it was a very popular day to have children, which also means it's fall break. So I'm going to have to go to my nephew's birthday party in a little bit. When I leave, though, in about half an hour, you will be at Bear Quorum. So I just wanted to give you a heads up. I know my staff reached out to your staff, but I do have to leave to go to a birthday party. Oh,…”

“Thank you, Chair. So I'm a little bit confused. If they couldn't be residential, how are they residential now?”

“Thank you. Fun Factory is actually really fun. The little bowling section is adorable. So the kids had a lot of fun. It was good to get the kids' wiggles out during, you know, fall break while they're all just at home. But I am back home now with my husband, Koa Hajins, and our son, Ehukai. I've been listening along as I drove up, except maybe for the last few minutes. But, Chair, are we on Appendix E? G. Okay, thank you. Thank you.”

“Thank you, Chair. I will be on when we get back from lunch in my car, and then I'm going to have like a half an hour break as I pick up my children and then return home. I just wanted to give you a heads up. Thank you.”

“Thank you, Chair. I have no discussion on this particular thing. Happy to support. Sounds awesome. But for my disclosure, I am now back at my private residence and I have two school-aged children with me as well. And a cat that's sneezing. Thank you.”

“Hi, sorry, I just had to tell my kids to stop going outside. It's so loud. A while ago, I was working on a bill and we partnered with OEV. So I think this is great. I'm happy to support it. We do have a draft bill. Life got crazy in the council, so we haven't rescheduled the meeting. But Bro, I just told you, stop going outside. Can you get it? Fine. Can we also add OEV, please? Because they were crucial in helping us figure out a lot of the language in there. We met with them a while ago, like I said, and it was kind of the beginning of everything. So we can continue to partner with that.…”
