ALOHA KEKAHI I KEKAHI

Greetings

Celebration of the New Year came to a halt as session began on January 18th, the opening

day for both the House of Representatives and the Senate. A House Bill that introduced the

Capitol Improvement Projects became a priority for the benefit of District 4. It consisted of

construction and equipment to finish the gymnasium, lockers and locker rooms, and

wrestling room which a total fund of $3 million will contribute to complete the job. The

Puna alternate route which needs a pre-engineering report that is necessary to do the design

work to connect Nanawale estates and subdivision with the city of Hilo to improve

vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit circulation and safety is a huge priority that we

will look into costing 1.5 million dollars. Keonepoko elementary school is also part of the

CIP project which will include improvements for the covered walkways.

We continue to enhance our Hawaiian values here at the capitol and focus on important

issues that will prosper in the growth of District 4. As we progress we continue to ask for

your support and thank you for letting me serve as your Representative for District 4.

Happy Valentines Day to all of you and your families!

Aloha kekahi I kekahi
