So I went. It turned out to be well worth the hour and a half, even without any free coffee or sticky buns. The City and County presenter team was headed by Robert Cronin, a sharp bureaucrat who headed a three or four man team who briefed the Chamber on a plan to lay a picturesque sidewalk lined with bollards (that look like little nightsticks) and (I guess) flowering planters along Kamehameha Highway from the Anahulu Steam (think Rainbow) Bridge to somewhere near the twin bridges mauka of the cane-haul road traffic light. The most impor- tant fact I came away with: ten million dollars of funding is indeed in the city’s budget. Second most important fact: the mayor is solidly behind the proj- ect. But hang on … there’s more good news. Kam Highway gets repaved and Cronin agreed to at least look at replacing Haleiwa’s street lights with some nifty-looking period-piece models. The sidewalks would be at least three feet wide, so the existing walkways at Haleiwa Town (or Towne?) Lots would be widened. Individual property owners would/ might have some selection as to the styling in front of their stores. I was happy to see Bill Quinlan and Ed D’Ascoli in the audience along with Howard. Those three usually guarantee successful meetings. Cronin estimates awarding contracts about a year from now, which is not too bad, even with some bureaucratic slippage. So we’ll get new side- walks, folks. Can underground electric power lines and adequate public parking be far behind?

The police do not generally respond to resource management and enforcement calls.

On another note, I have been invited to partici- pate in an exclusive government leadership training program this month in Lexington Kentucky.

It is my honor to represent Hawaii and be one of 12 Western United States fellows for 2019. Our frustrations with Laniakea continue. Believe me when I say this issue is always front and center.
