AGENDA
Mahalo!!
Comfort Station,
parking lot, jogging
path, picnic tables,
drainage,
electricity, etc..
In February, I sent a letter to City and County Parks and Recreation. Then on May 11th I
met directly with the Parks director and the Leeward Coast Parks Supervisor. I asked
them specifically for details and a timeline. I shared with them the link and maps you
showed me. They told me that due to budget constraints they would only be doing the
comfort station at the Pu'u o Hulu Park and that Council Member Pine had submitted
this request into the budget.
Then on May 26th I received a letter from Director Nekota. I did run into Council
Member Pine at the Wakea Apartment opening on June 30th and mentioned your issue.
She mentioned that bids went out for the construction of the bathroom and I asked if
she could track down a timeline so I could report back to you.

Kolekole Pass
On July 10th, 2015, Navy, Department of Defense, and Department of Emergency
Management agree to amend language to the Memorandum of Agreement for the use of
Kolekole pass in the event of an emergency.
On July 23rd, I took a tour of the pass and we drove 3 vans and truck from the entrance to
the Army gate. It is driveable. A one way option may work.
On September 3, 2015, Department of Defense gives the update that the October signing
of the MOA - Memorandum of Agreement is on track barring any unforeseen
circumstances. They DOD and the Army are in favor of opening Kolekole on a more
frequent basis. I will be meeting with Navy Facilities, Admiral Fuller, Congresswoman
Gabbard, and other regarding the Navy portion of the road that needs maintenance.
Bus Turnouts
Maaloa Bus Turnout
This is set to finish by the end of this year
Sack and Save
Ive met with the Food Giant/Nanakuli Super owners and they are open having the
bus stop in front of their property closer to the crosswalk
DTS is in favor of moving the bus stop down so there is no midblock crosswalk
DOT is over placement of bus stops and Pratt Kinimaka is working with Ed on this
option
Synchronization of Lights
Lights have been synchronized from Piliokahi to Auyoung in January. The lights have
been lengthened from 3:20 (4pm-6pm) to 4:00 minutes of green (3pm-7pm).
Manual Synchronization is not a one time event. Only electronically controlled systems
set to traffic patterns can adjust and even those need to be reset. Nimitz has the only
remotely controlled system set to traffic patterns. (Info from Panos Prevederous)
Major Kendro from D8 has sent officers out to monitor the intersections. The
Nanakuli/Farrington and Haleakala/Farrington lights are not set to 4:00 minutes of green.
Haleakala and Helelua have run up to 7 minutes of green when there are no cars.
Motorist are abiding by the No Left Turn at the park. Turns in Ka Waihona does not
appear to be a contributing factor. Lights fall out of sync for less than a complete cycle
before the go green again.
Meeting with Ty Fukumitsu (808-768-8387) Sept. 18, 2015.
Bike Path
We have done 3 community clean ups on Paakea in preparation.
Waianae Coast Comprehensive Health Center is donating the design.
HECO donated the signage for No Dumping. Local 368 (they did the
Malaekahana Bike Path) has donated the quotes. Mikilua Farmers have
donated the service and help with posting signage. Hawaiian Dredging
will help to do the prep work. PVT and Pineridge will be donating the
wrap or the material that goes under the asphalt. Grace Pacific will
donate the hauling of the asphalt and the labor.
We are looking for a bike path non-profit that can be the financing
holding entity for the purchasing of the asphalt.
