The Records of the Wahiawa Settlement Association (1899-1939) M-453 Wahiawa Page 1 THE RECORDS OF THE WAHIAWA SETTLEMENT ASSOCIATION (1899-1939) Introduction The Wahiawa Settlement Association was formed in 1898 through the efforts of Mr. B.0. Clark. _The town was called the Wahiawa Colony, or locally known as the California Colony. This colony was the first systematic effort ever made on the island of Oahu by a group of people to demonstrate what can be done to grow a variety of crops and fruits for conunercial purposes. As the name indicates, the colony was largely composed of former residents of California, who had many years experience of fruit growing in California. One of the.main fruits grown was pineapple, and Wahiawa still remains a pineapple growing area today. This collection of records range from accounts, agreements, assets, correspondence, minutes of meetings and various other documents of the Wahiawa Settlement Association. The period covered by the records are the years between 1899 and 1939. Other informa­ tion on the Association can be found in Subject Index under Wahiawa, and the Wahiawa Settlement Association.

  • INFORMATION MEMORANDUM to the ADMINISTRATOR From: Ron
    INFORMATION MEMORANDUM TO THE ADMINISTRATOR From: Ron Fisher, Chief, Office of Planning Innovation and Analysis (202) 366-0257 Prepared by: Dwayne Weeks, Senior Community Planner (202) 493-0316 Re: Conference Call with Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle, the Mayor of Honolulu, Jeremy Harris, several State legislators, and Mary Peters, FHWA Administrator PURPOSE OF THE CALL The Island of Oahu is faced with severe daily transportation congestion. This is because existing transportation capacity is limited by environmental conditions and existing high- density development, which prevents additional road construction without severe environmental impacts and residential and business displacements. The Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle, the Mayor of Honolulu, Jeremy Harris, and the State legislature are exploring the potential funding availability for projects that could assist them to resolve the transportation problems. Thus, they are seeking the input of senior Administration officials about what Federal resources are available to assist them. BACKGROUND The City of Honolulu Department of Transportation is undertaking preliminary engineering on a 30-mile bus rapid transit project called the Primary Corridor Transportation Project. It will consist of a bus rapid transitway on the interstate highway from Kapolei to Middle Street. The transitway is comprised of a 3 mile extension to the existing morning peak period through a movable barrier contra flow lane, a new 6.5 mile afternoon peak period movable barrier contra flow lane and new express lanes to form an uninterrupted transitway. The non-highway BRT component would be a 2.8 mile high- capacity transit spine from Middle Street to Downtown, a 3.7 mile University Branch from Downtown to the UH-Manoa, and a 5.1 mile Downtown to Kakaako/Waikiki Branch.

  • The Honorable Mufi Hannemann Mayor of Honolulu Honolulu Hale 530 S
    The Deputy Administrator 400 Seventh St., S.W. U.S. Department Washington, D.C. 20590 of Transportation Federal Transit Administration The Honorable Mufi Hannemann Mayor of Honolulu Honolulu Hale 530 S. King St. Honolulu, HI 96813 Re: Alternatives Analysis Initiation Guidance Dear Mayor Hanneman: As a follow-up to your recent meeting with Secretary Mineta, I am writing to reiterate several important points that were discussed with regard to your interest in undertaking a Federally- supported major capital investment transit (New Starts) project in the Kapolei/Downtown Corridor in Honolulu. As the City and County of Honolulu begin the process of Alternatives Analysis (AA), it is important to remember that this is a critical step in project development. This is time when local decision-makers can and must compare the benefits and costs of a full range of investment strategies to meet their locally-identified transportation needs. FTA technical assistance is available to support of your efforts, and I urge you to contact our Regional Office in San Francisco for assistance. We have found that early FTA involvement in the project's development helps avoid problems that could occur later, when resolution is much more difficult and expensive. Additionally, FTA's early assistance can help ensure that you have collected and prepared the information necessary to advance a locally preferred alternative into Preliminary Engineering under the New Starts program. This, in turn, helps shorten the project approval process. FTA's major investment planning and project development webpage also provides useful information about Alternatives Analysis. It can be accessed at http://www.fta.dot.gov/grant_programs/transportation_planning/9924 ENG HTML.htm.
