WSCP Meeting Notes from Oct 27

Aloha Everyone,

Attached are the meeting notes from Monday's WSCP (Waianae Sustainable Communities Plan) Public Information Meeting. Thank you to everyone who attended and shared their thoughts on the Public Review Draft. Sorry if I missed any comments in the notes - things got a little crazy! Feel free to send corrections or additions.

The major discussion of the night was the proposed light industrial area in Lualualei. We did not come to a consensus on whether or not to amend the WSCP to include this new industrial zone on the Land Use Map. Therefore, we will be putting together additional information on this potential zoning change and sending it out.

In addition, there will be a follow-up meeting in a few weeks. I will be sending the meeting information as soon as we find a time and location that works for most people. At that meeting, we will do our best to present all of the information we can on light industrial parks, along with a summary of the input we have heard and received on this topic thus far. And we will try to set up a format that enables us to hear from everyone.

FYI- On the last page of the meeting notes (page 7) is the official definition of "I-1 limited industrial district" from the City & County of Honolulu's Land Use Ordinance. There is more information available at this link:
http://www.co.honolulu.hi.us/refs/roh/21_990.pdf
Go to page 60 to see the definition along with more detailed information about what is allowed in these districts.

We will be sending the Nanakuli Neighborhood Board Resolution(s) and info soon as well.

Thank you for all of your continued participation. As always, please feel free to email or call me when any comments, concerns, or questions. My cell is 772-0316.

Thanks,
Harmonee

Please spread the word...

I got a call from a librarian named Cheryl at the Kapolei Public Library who is starting a new NIH program designed to teach seniors how to use the computer to get health information. Any organization willing to teach seniors can download the toolkit at http://nihseniorhealth.gov/toolkit/toolkit.html. The main purpose is to teach seniors how to find health information on the internet. It assumes the user has no experience with computers and starts off with teaching the basics of using a computer and the internet.

She said they are not getting any extra funding to provide this service. They will be offering the class every Monday for the month of November, starting next Monday from 8:30am - 10am. The room they will be using has 9 computers and a projector. 2 seniors will be able to use each terminal for a total capacity of 18 students. So far only 4 people have signed up. She needs to get more seniors (60+) to participate or they will discontinue the project. Anyone who would like to sign up may contact the Kapolei Library at 693-7050.

I hope this pilot project becomes successful so that other libraries will follow. Most libraries already have computer terminals with internet access that are available to the public for free. You can even reserve a time slot for computer use on their website (www.librarieshawaii.org).

Volunteers Needed to Water Native Plants Along Kaukama Rd Pathway

The Sept. 27 pathway clean up and beautification at Kaukama Road was a huge success. Over 100 volunteers gathered and planted over 40 native plants (mostly drought resistant), and thousands of native seeds. Volunteers also cleared brush and debris, and gathered over 100 bags of litter.

A watering effort is now being made, since the seedlings will need to be watered daily (ideally twice a day) until they are established. Please let us know the times and days you can help water. So far the following volunteers are watering:

Sunday: Yvonne Angut & Ohana

Monday: Laurie & Mike Lawrence

Tuesday: none

Wednesday: none

Thursday: Young/Dodge/Shimabukuro Ohana

Friday: Yvonne Angut & Ohana

Saturday: Pam Arbitrario & Ms. Soo

Details:

1. The best time to water is either morning or evening (cool times of day to avoid evaporation due to heat/sun).
2. The plants are within a 25-yard strip from the start of the trail at Kaukama Rd.

3. You'll need about 20 gallons of water -- at least half a gallon per plant (there are 40 plants).
4. You'll need a bucket or other container to carry water from plant to plant.
5. There's water (a bathroom w/showers) at the site, about 100 yards away. An alternative is to bring your own water.

6. It would take one person about one hour to water the plants -- not counting prep and commute time.

If you can help water the plants on any of these days, please contact: maileshimabukuro@yahoo.com

Mahalo to the following organizations for making the event a huge success:

Women of Waianae; AlohaCare; Teach for America; ServiceNation-Hawaii; Nani O Waianae; Kahoomiki; Campbell High Schoool; Waipahu High School; Waianae Olelo; Waianae Boys and Girls Club; Staff of Rep. Maile Shimabukuro; and all other volunteers.

Update: BWS Farr. Hwy Improvement Project

From: Moani Wright-Van Alst [mailto:mwright-vanalst@hbws.org]
Sent: Friday, October 10, 2008 3:32 PM
Subject: BWS Farrington Hwy Projects Update

Aloha Community Leaders and Members,

In a continuing effort to provide you with updated information about BWS’ Farrington Highway Water System Improvement Projects, we are pleased to announce the launch of a new web page, voice recording system and e-mail address.

New Website, Phone Number & E-mail Address

We understand that Farrington Highway is the sole artery for the Leeward community, so we have created a new web page and voice recording to provide weekly project and traffic updates. Every Friday afternoon, the webpage and voice recording will be updated to reflect the following week’s construction updates and traffic pattern for our Farrington Hwy Phase 1 project in Koolina and Farrington Hwy Part 1, Phase A project in Nanakuli.

You can access the web page by visiting www.boardofwatersupply.com and clicking on the Farrington Hwy projects icon at the bottom, right hand corner of the page. Or you can go directly to it, by clicking: http://www.boardofwatersupply.com/cssweb/display.cfm?storyID=1070. The web page also includes background information about the projects and project maps.

Residents can also call 748-5310 to hear a voice recording with the updated project and traffic information.

Also, residents can e-mail farringtonprojects@hbws.org with questions or comments.

While this has been set up to help provide the community with the latest information with regards to our projects, because of the nature of construction, there may be instances where plans need to be changed rather quickly. If there are major changes that will impact the community, we will work to update the site and voice recording as quickly as possible.

Farrington Hwy, Part 1, Part A Update

Our contractor needs to move up the water main installation in the intersection of Nanakuli Avenue to begin next Tuesday, October 14th. Again, this work is to install a 12-inch water main in the intersection and because of where the pipe is, it will require us to close both Waianae bound lanes. During construction, a special duty police officer will be placed in the intersection to help direct traffic along Farrington Highway and in and out of Nanakuli Avenue and he will also control the traffic light at Nanakuli Ave. During the work in the intersection, the working hours will be adjusted slightly to help with the morning rush hour, to 8:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. We have also changed the verbiage on the electronic signboard on Farrington Hwy to advise motorists of this change and added another signboard within Nanakuli town (near Auyong Homestead Road) to advise town-bound motorists of the change.

There have been questions asked if we could divert traffic up Nanakuli Avenue and if we could use the million dollar bridge, but unfortunately both options are not possible because of safety and feasibility issues. As you know, there are not very many options in this area to help mitigate traffic but our inspector and DOT will be monitoring the area to help minimize traffic impact as best as possible.

We appreciate the community’s patience and understanding as we work on these critical water system improvement projects. We will share this information at the upcoming neighborhood board meetings, but would appreciate your help in sharing this information with the community.

Mahalo,
Moani Wright-Van Alst

Natalie Attar (Hawai'i Corps '06)
Undergraduate University: University of Arizona
Major: Nutrition

Natalie Attar teaches third grade math at Waianae Elementary in the Leeward Complex Area. Natalie collaborated with Courtney Owen (Corps ’06) to design an ambitious new curriculum map for her school, focusing on new assessments, lessons, and long-term plans that were both rigorous and in line with state standards. Her hard work and relentless dedication to her students paid off. At the beginning of the year, only 12 percent of Natalie’s students scored at a basic level or above on the Hawai‘i Quarterly Assessment, but by the end of the year, 100 percent of her students scored at the basic level or higher, with 93 percent of her students demonstrating proficient or advanced work. The success in Natalie’s classroom is representative of the impact that our movement is having in schools across Hawai’i.

Revised Waianae SCP Public Review Draft

Subject: Revised Waianae SCP Public Review Draft

Aloha All-

The Waianae Sustainable Communities Plan (Revised 2009) Public Review Draft is ready and can be downloaded from this link:
http://townscapeinc.com/waianae-scp.asp
(It is a large document, so it takes a while.)

We have just sent the document to the printer, so a hard copy will hopefully be in the mail to those of you who so requested by Friday afternoon. (please send me your address if you haven't already)

This marks the beginning of a 45-day review period. You can comment on the draft via email, phone, or at the upcoming Public Info Meeting. We are aiming to hold that mtg the last week of October, but the date has not yet been confirmed.

We will also be giving a brief presentation of the major changes to the WSCP to the Nanakuli Neighborhood Board in October. (Waianae NB not until December due to scheduling conflicts and their board's November recess).

Thank you to all of you who sent in comments on the Preliminary Draft, and to those who participated in the last PAC meeting in September. We tried our best to incorporate your input throughout the Plan. (the notes from that last mtg have been revised and attached here for your reference)

One issue that has not yet been decided upon is the proposed change to the Land Use Map in the Appendix. The basic issue is whether or not to include a new "Industrial" area in Lualualei. This Public Review Draft includes 2 versions of that map: Land Use Map A is the same as the original. Land Use Map B includes an additional "Industrial" area in Lualualei. We hope to discuss this with all of you at the meeting at the end of the month, and come to a consensus on which map to include in the Final WSCP.

please call with any questions or comments (best way to reach me is on my cell: 772-0316),
