Due to an increasing problem of theft and vandalism of public property, BWS has been proactive in its efforts increasing security around facilities to protect the safety of the water supply. However, having the community as a partner to help BWS keep an eye on its various properties, especially the remote ones, is something that is very important. It is illegal to trespass onto BWS property including reservoir sites. BWS asks for cooperation from the community to report any suspicious activity at BWS sites to the HPD at 9-1-1 or to notify BWS Security at 748-5911, which is staffed 24 hours a day seven (7) days a week.

For 2017, the contest theme, “Conserve to Preserve,” invites Oahu students to creatively express the importance of conserving water now to preserve our water supply for the future. The poster contest is open to Oahu students in grades Kindergarten through sixth (6th), and the poetry contest is open to Oahu students in grades seventh (7th) through 12th. The deadline to enter these contests is Wednesday, March 1, 2017. o New Year’s Resolution to Save Water – The New Year is a time of reflection and represents an opportunity to commit to positive changes in our lifestyle. Why not make one (1) of your 2017 New Year’s Resolutions to cut down household water usage by two (2), five (5), or even 10-percent? This simple resolution can help save money while helping to conserve Oahu’s precious water supply. Here are some simple steps you can take to achieve this resolution: .

Alea Bridge will serve as a bridge between those in need of services and the service providers. Alea Bridge will be organizing the yearly mandated United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Point in Time (PIT) count for region five (5) which will be occurring in the week of Monday, January 23, 2017, through Friday, January 27, 2017 and will analyze the state of homelessness throughout the island and rest of the state so the state may address the regions accordingly. The data gathered from the PIT count will help the community recognize the next steps needed to address homelessness in the area. Region five (5) covers from Kipapa Gulch out to Kaena Point then across the North Shore to Turtle Bay. Acosta thanked area legislators and the community for their donations. Acosta noted that so far the homeless count for region five (5) has totaled 258 but is expected to exceed 300 as the count continues throughout the week. Acosta further noted that over the next couple weeks the data will be clarified and submitted to federal partners who will allocate funds to address homelessness. In February 2017 there will be a Homeless Alliance meeting to discuss the count and examine preliminary data. In March 2017 the official count will be released. Alea Bridge will be taking ownership of the homeless issues and solutions in region five (5). Alea Bridge will be looking to expand community outreach, increase community support, and to supply resources to address homelessness in region five (5) which is not currently present. Acosta reported that a grant in aide (GIA) application has been filed for the Wahiwa HoM project which is asking for aide in the creation of a Resource and Navigation Center for the homeless and at risk population in the area. This center will be providing temporary housing, intensive care, employment assistance, and other support services. The site is projected to have 20 beds, hygiene and laundry facilities, and storage areas to aide in the rapid transition of the homeless to permanent housing. The center should be running by the end of 2018 if the GIA process is approved. Acosta concluded that this center will help reverse the trend of the growing population of homeless in the area using intensive outreach and the creation of a navigation center.

Services Provided and Funding: Svrcina asked and Acosta responded that the way the government is address homelessness currently in ineffective but added that Alea Bridge will align with government guideline at the micro levels. Acosta explained that the closest homeless service providers are over 30 miles from the area which adds to the homeless issues. Svrcina asked and Acosta responded that politicians have only donated lunches to the volunteers and the operation is currently unfunded. Svrcina asked and Acosta responded that no Federal funding has been received as HUD gives the funds to the state totaling $12 million with $10 million for Oahu. Acosta added that none of the $10 million has been given to this area as there are no service providers which is a reason Alea Bridge was formed to be able to provide needed services. 3. GIA Approval: Marcos asked and Acosta responded that the GIA has been submitted and they are expected to receive a response in May 2017. 4. Funding: Freed asked and Acosta responded that Alea Bridge is looking at other funding sources such as the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA), the Weinberg Foundation, and others to ensure diversified funding. Freed noted that GIA are only given when there is a surplus and are only provided for that single year which causes the process to be very competitive. Acosta responded that once the Navigation Center and Services are established the sustaining funds would come from HUD. 5. Numbers of Homeless: Bass noted the she has requested the number of homeless from the State’s Homeless Coordinator who was unable to provide definite numbers. Bass thanked Acosta and requested an update on the PIT count. 6. Amount of Funding Being Requested: Smart asked and Acosta responded that currently there is no one on staff for Alea Bridge. Acosta added that $1.85 million is being requested for the acquisition of the property and construction. Other funding sources will be needed to provide for staff. Amount of staff will depend on the outreach contract’s needs. 7. Service Areas: Gustafson asked and Acosta responded that the primary focus of the services provided will be region five (5). Acosta added that services could be expanded but the goal for the meantime is in this region. Gustafson asked and Acosta responded that the facility will be a temporary shelter, rehabilitation, and service providing facility. 8. OHA Funds: Iuli asked and Acosta responded that there will be no restrictions on the funds provided by OHA. Iuli noted that the raising of rents is forcing people out and Acosta responded that rent control is a needed preventative way to reduce homelessness.

Amount of Beds: Marshall asked and Acosta responded that the facility will have 20-25 beds to aide in the rapid transition to permanent housing but there will be no day care. Acosta added that New Hope Central Church could help with day care and after school services as they are not trying to duplicate provided services and would rather partner with other service providers. 10. Government Request: Svrcina asked and Acosta responded that they are requesting the government to aide in the acquisition, design and construction of the facility. 11. Mental Health Services: Lee asked and Acosta responded that mental health and substance abuse services will be provided. 12. Pets: Freed asked and Acosta responded that the facility will not be a shelter as it will be striving to transition the homeless to permanent housing in 60-90 days. Acosta added that there are state guidelines regarding animals but as the organization is not bound to those guidelines they will look at possible additional services regarding pets. 13. Migration of Homelessness: Remington asked and Acosta responded that there is no answer to the possibility of the homeless migrating to this area if the program is successful. 14. Organized Efforts: Lee thanked Acosta for the well-organized efforts of the PIT count and noted that the training being provided to the volunteers is excellent. 15.
