Comments followed: 1. Blue Lights and Use of Bicycles or Walking – A Board member asked about the blue lights and the use of bicycles. Lieutenant Asing mentioned that the blue lights are turned on for service calls, so they can get to the destination faster or turned off to listen to dogs barking for 1/2 hour intermittent and to assess the situation and catch the fireworks violators. Due to a shortage in staffing, the use of cars over bicycles may make a quicker response. Lieutenant Asing wanted the bikes to return, so he could exercise more. 2. Crime Mapping – HPD is moving to stop handing out paper statistics and will only speak to concerns for each area. Crime mapping statistics will be posted at – honolulupd.org. 3. Fireworks – This year there will be strict enforcement of fireworks laws. HPD is asking residents to report violations. However, Priority 1 cases will take precedence. Chair Prentiss reported that 465 Waimānalo Street has already started illegal fireworks by Thanksgiving Day. Call 911 immediately. 4. Helicopter Chase – Chair Prentiss asked if HPD caught the culprit. Lieutenant Asing answered that the use of the helicopter was a proper use of HPD resources to apprehend the suspect.

Marine Corps Base Hawaiʻi – Tiffany Patrick was not present and no report was available.

Civilian/Military Council (CMC) Liaison Annual Report – Jimmy Crockett reported that he worked with Claudine Tomasa as a sub-committee member within Tomasa's Public Health/Safety & Civil Defense Committee. Crockett has held this position for the past year and gave an annual update on the military. When Crockett took this position, his goal was to develop a positive and healthy rapport with the base, to air out community concerns, and to work out viable solutions that are realistic for both the Marines and the residents. They have to train and residents have to sleep.  Flight Issues – The biggest issue is the low-level flights over Kaimalino residents into Landing Zone (LZ) Boondocker. This is the landing zone that is located near the Marine base’s south fence line and is within a half (1/2) mile of people's homes. This became a major complaint issue, when a West Coast V-22 Osprey unit came through flying very low over people’s houses (below 200 ft. /most of week from Thursday through Monday, February 18-22, 2016.)  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Meeting – Crockett attended a meeting with the FAA's Honolulu District Manager, where he and his team addressed a compilation of community questions at the meeting.  Operations and Flight Routes – Crockett has also attended meeting concerning operations within the Bellows Training Area and flight routes of arriving and departing flights at Bellows and at Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH).  Military Interactions – Crockett had interactions, which included bi-monthly meetings of the CMC and meetings with the Commanding Officer Colonel Killeen, the Chief of Staff, the Director of Strategic Planning, the Tower Chief, Operations personnel, the Executive Officer of the new Osprey Squadron, numerous Osprey and helicopter pilots, and Tiffany Patrick with the MCBH Public Affairs Office (PAO).  Good Relations – Overall, Crockett thinks that there is good communication with the base. They provide a Hotline phone number to log in complaints and a PAO person, Tiffany Patrick, who attends the monthly Neighborhood Board meetings. Recently, Crockett received an email from a former Marine three (3)-star General, who was stationed at Camp Smith with an email and phone call from the Director of Marine Aviation Weapons and Tactical Squadron (MAWTS) out of Yuma, Arizona. Hearing from these high-ranking people, who have concerns about the local community makes Crockett feel that progress is being done. A couple of months ago, Crockett was in Washington, D.C. and Quantico, and met the next incoming Commanding Officer of the base, Colonel Lyoness, who's change of command is this coming June 2017. Crockett found him very knowledgeable and he was well aware of the community's concerns. As Crockett is travelling back to D.C. in a few weeks, and he looks forward to again visiting with the Marines. Crockett usually gives his report to Chair Tomasa, but he wanted to give his annual report tonight.

Comments followed: Noise Issues – Wong had a concern about noise from flights into the training area and the observation helicopters. As a civilian, Crockett had no control over the military actions in the training area and can only notify them of complaints. Chair Prentiss noted that this is an ongoing issue for Chair Claudine Tomasa's Public Safety Public Health & Civil Defense (PSPHCD) Committee.

Mayor Kirk Caldwell’s Representative – Andrew Pereira reported the following:  32nd Annual Honolulu City Lights 2016 – Honolulu City Lights (HCL) starts on Saturday December 3, 2016.

Be aware of the traffic alert in the morning.  Complaints – Board member Parsons stated that Department of Planning and Permitting (DPP) does not respond to complaints, when complaints are submitted on the website or on the Honolulu 311 app. DPP KAILUANEIGHBORHOODBOARDNO.31 THURSDAY,DECEMBER1,2016 DRAFTREGULARMEETINGMINUTES PAGE3OF7

responds to all complaints properly received either thru the DART/Request for Investigation and Response (RISR) system, in-house, Office of Information and Complaints received or through DPP’s website. Andrew Pereira will follow up on the 311 app.  Dumpster: Board member Parsons stated that there is a house under construction on the corner of Keolu Drive and Kiukee Place. A dumpster without a permit is blocking the street and the sidewalk, the dumpster has been there for five (5) months. DPP: Address: 405 Keolu Drive, Tax Map Key: 4-2-087: 013. An investigation by the DPP revealed that the dumpster blocking the street and sidewalk was removed. Also, the construction debris was cleared and removed. The sidewalk is being repaired and restored; safety barricades are in place for the sidewalk and will be removed immediately once the concrete is cured. There are no building violations noted at this time. Per HPD Sergeant Peralta, the road and sidewalk areas are completely clear of obstruction. Report questionable incidents to DPP right away.  Signs – In regards to the Kailua Way finding project, Board member Wong asked what kind of signs will be put up, who the sign are for, where would the signs lead to and would they be written in different language. Department of Transportation Services (DTS) – The Kailua Way finding Sign project will install way finding signs that will aid pedestrians and bicyclists in navigating to different landmarks and destinations throughout Kailua, such as Kailua Beach, Lanikai, Kailua Town, Aikahi, Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH), and Enchanted Lakes, etc. All signs will be in English, in compliance with Federal Highway Administration standards. Signage will include a combination of directional guidance and distances.  Beach Park/Wi-Fi: Board member Weller stated that the City-owned beach house at the Kalama Beach Park needs to be renovated and fixed. Weller stated that the house is a historical building and needs to be taken care of. Weller would also like to put a free Wi-Fi on the property. Pereira requested more information on the free Wi-Fi. Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) responded that Kalama Beach Park’s is currently used as the Kailua Complex Office of the DPR. The Estate is on the list of DPR facilities, slated for future funding for renovations. No funding is available in the current budget cycle, but the new budget cycle starts around February 2017.  Trash – A resident named Lincoln called to report that the City contracted someone to clean a drain channel for the Women’s prison. There is a Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) right next to this and whoever cleaned the drain channel left the trash on the grassy hill and it can be seen from the YMCA and while on the highway heading out of Kailua, making it unsightly. Lincoln requested that this be cleaned up. Department of Facility Maintenance (DFM) noted that this area is not maintained by the DFM or the City and County of Honolulu. Upon further inspection, the Kailua Yard supervisor noticed it was cleaned-up. If it happens again, report it to the City and it will forward the request to the State.  Maunawili Trail Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Modification – DPP responded that the CUP modification is currently being reviewed at the policy level. A public announcement will be forthcoming soon. Pereira will follow up and notify Chair Prentiss and the Maunawili Estates Community Association.  Trees – A resident from Coconut Grove, noticed that the contractor for the City (KLS) is ripping out/cutting non-mangrove trees while clearing the mangroves. It appears to impact water fowls in the area. The resident wants to know if contractor is authorized to cut these trees and if they will be replanted. FYI – Board member Weller stated that he is a consultant for Kendall Landscaping Services (KLS) and that KLS will only cut trees that the client (City) has told KLS to cut. DFM – The City awarded a contract to KLS for the cutting, removal, and "herbiciding" of mangrove and non-native woody vegetation to include trees and shrubs within the waterways of Kawainui Stream. As part of its scope, the contractor is to clear up to 25 feet upslope of both sides of the stream on City and State land or up to the private parcel boundaries should private parcels fall within the 25 feet. In coming up with the specifications for the scope of work, the City’s Department of Facility Maintenance (DFM) collaborated with the State’s Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) to ensure that all work was to be done in the interest of enhancing water quality and stream health by improving flow. The targeted non-native trees and shrubs in the scope of this project are those that are along the banks and/or in the stream that are causing the reduced flow. The current objective is to complete the first phase of the project with the cutting, removal, and "herbiciding" of mangrove and non-native woody vegetation along specified areas along Kawainui Stream. From there, the contract will enter its maintenance stages in Phases 2 and 3 where the contractor is to come back to cut, remove, and herbicide any new seedlings and re-growths in the same specified areas along Kawainui Stream. As the phases are expected to span a minimum of 18 months, there are currently no plans to plant any new trees. With regards to the water fowls in the area, DLNR briefed the contractor and the contractor has developed a protocol in its approach to survey work sites daily prior to the start of any work. If machinery is to be used, the contractor is closely monitoring their intended work paths by walking in front of the machinery to ensure no habitats or fowl are found. Should any be found, the contractor will call a Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) Wildlife Biologist for guidance. To date, no fowl has been found injured from this project and DLNR will continue to monitor the contractor throughout the duration.
