Local lawmakers, including Governor Ige, attended the event to present various proclamations and certificates honoring the Chapter’s commmitment to protecting Hawaiʻi’s environment. A special thank you to Under my Umbrella for the incredible work and support planning this event, all of the volunteers and staff that helped during the planning process, the lei makers, the day of volunteers, all of the wonderful companies, organizations, and individuals that donated items to our robust silent auction, Reese Liggett and Suzan Harada for donating and making the beautiful native plant centerpieces, Jonathan Scheuer for donating the ti for the lei, Jen Homcy for donating the gorgeous awards, Hannes Seidel from CarbonBuddy and Arsalan Barmand from Carbon Lighthouse for helping us to offset the event’s carbon emissions, and Tristan Cummins from Sustainable Coastlines for helping us reduce the event’s waste.

  • February 9, 2018 Mr. Laurence Schott, Senior Director Government
    HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STATE OF HAWAII STATE CAPITOL HONOLULU, HAWAII 96813 February 9, 2018 Mr. Laurence Schott, Senior Director Government Affairs, West Region Charter Communications 10450 Pacific Center CT San Diego, California 92121 Dear Mr. Schott: RE: OPPOSITION TO PROPOSED PUBLIC, EDUCATION, AND GOVERNMENT (PEG) CHANNEL LOCATION CHANGES ‘Ōlelo Community Media, O‘ahu’s non-profit PEG access provider, has been serving our communities for nearly 30 years. Like all other PEGs in the state, ‘Ōlelo is committed to the principles of hyper local programming and freedom of speech. The channel numbers used by all of our PEGs have been established for 20-plus years. People know exactly where to find them. But Spectrum’s forced channel relocation will abruptly change this, causing severe channel confusion that will begin in neighborhoods across O‘ahu, and spread throughout the state. Charter Communications/Spectrum’s decision to relocate Public, Education, and Government (PEG) channels on O‘ahu is not in the best interest of our citizens and is not in the best interest of serving cable subscribers in Hawai‘i. Spectrum’s forced ‘Ōlelo channel change will pave the way for forced channel changes to all other PEGs in the State of Hawai‘i - Nā Leo on Hawai‘i County, Akakū on Maui County, and Ho‘ike on Kaua‘i County. The hyper local programming ‘Ōlelo provides includes City Council meetings, legislative hearings and sessions, community town halls, non-profit programs, and local stories produced by community media makers. In fact, ‘Ōlelo provides the only local channel on O‘ahu dedicated to government programs, an essential tool for ensuring government transparency.
