there's a lot of work that goes into becoming a world champion a lot of work starts at hole and moves on to the school moves on to the playing practice field and then playing the game these young men put a lot of effort in trying what their parents their supporters their boosters as well as their coaches what is meths hours and effort as they did so i want those young men to remember it was a team effort all around and once they hit the field they once again proved that my wee county has great and quality players they play as a team that work together as a team that travels great distances as a team to bring back a championship to the state of hawaii and while we county we're extremely proud of these young men and we stand continue success in their future but savor the moment young man savor the moment it doesn't come every day and sometimes it never comes again but if you have a chance before you leave remember all those who made it possible your coaches your parents your boosters but more importantly remember the effort and the commitment you meet as players that one day you will do this at another level and then bring another championship back to maui county so it was built on behalf of my college team myself also shane sends his congratulations he says that this is been a banner year for my county and he wishes us continued to very bashful guy i've known him since he was never mind when i knew him and he still hasn't changed but you are the coach and i want to present the resolution to you i know trevor is going to be the speaker for the team but i wan congratulations to you and the team for the hard work dedication and accomplishment that you guys have had me thank you very very much you know a coach craig is usually our designated team rapper i mean motivational speaker but i he let me have the mike today so good morning chairman white and members of the council thank you very much for having us here you know we are very honored  resolution and i'm very appreciative it so thank you very much um you know there are a lot of people have been saying that this is probably the greatest summer of baseball mommy ever write in and you know they may be right because you look at you know just from the small island in the middle pacific all the success that all these teams had at the highest level you know it's truly remarkable and it's something that you boys should all be proud of it is something that you'll have forever and it truly was it was awesome right it was awesome but it was not surprising it was not surprising when you consider our tremendous coaches you know it's in this small item on we we have literally world class coaches and i'm not just talking of the coaches up here who are really amazing but i'm talking about the coaches in the stands you know the coaches who are here like coach knowing coach richard and coach all the coaches a lot of which i hear that and lot of coaches who are not here who are able to make it today and i'm talking about the coaches of these coaches you know the cultural poll that i see them tons of other coaches who over the years have dedicated you know their time and sacrificed so much teaching the game of baseball and teaching life lessons not just to these boys here but to all the ballplayers across this side and not just this season but season after season after season they've dedicated their time and when you have that level of talent it coaches with that commitment success is a bound to happen right so it's not surprising it's not surprising to six x we had because of our parents because of her and these are all those our grandparents our siblings our friends i mean i am positive there's no team in the world who had more support more law than our teams had you know they say that it takes a village to raise a child right and that's exactly what it was it was it was an extended family of friends and who who supported not just a team but nurtured these boys to be the young men they are today you know instilling characteristics of of resilience and respect fullness and hard work and it's those traits that carried on to the ball field that translate to success so it's not surprising it's not surprising considering where we're from you know cory ma is the best you know and i'm not just talking about the the people and the businesses and the community that really financially donated so generously we would have gone anywhere without that kind of financial support that is communicated through for what i'm talking about truly everyone rallying behind these teams not just one but all the teams you know there were people that i barely knew who were coming up to me and just so thankful you know and they're just so still the way they genuinely felt a part of it right and i know that there's no team in the world who had that kind of total community support you know and i really believe it was that positive vibe you know that monna that transcended ocean you know and really was a key in our success so yes it was an unprecedented summer you know it was it was amazing and yes it took some luck took some right things to happen but no it wasn't surprising is to reflection of so many people over so many years that made this happen so congratulations to all of you and thank you you for your help good luck to all of you boys good luck to you in the future and i hope to see you up here again soon even if i mean they may not be here i will always be honored to have all of you thank you clinton please proceed for the record resolution sixteen one one nine

thank you for that beautiful speech i'm not going to say too much goes pretty much you said everything you know when we travel it's very important to how we carry ourselves on and off the field and i think that's one of the most important things as coaches we have an obligation to these young men here in how to to learn about their future and how to how to carry themselves and on how to be respected and i think above all you know we were one game short but i'm definitely most proud of them and through this long journey we had a lot of compliments from different team c parents and disarm the officials you know up there guys you guys did a great job on the field but you guys got a lot of respect off the field and to me that really sticks out the most you know we in losing you know it's go it's just a game and to the game of baseball and there's a lot of these young guys to grow as people and not only as players but as as people as well and the game of baseball is awesome and  any sport you know through sports we can learn life lessons that we can all learn in the classroom and i think it's all worth it that the hard work these days put in after school and during the summer and i know you guys have an obligation to all these young men and as well as all to the people and that we select you know how important sports are in this in this community and it's a very central to

their lives like to thank you folks you know we don't fields and we don't you know facilities for us to perform in where these young boys who practice in th proceeded for the record resolution sixteen one twenty one mr chair proceeding with the presentation of testimony on agenda items we've established limited interactive communication that enables individuals from the appropriation of additional fun for the purpose of much needed surgical equipment through that of the management revolving fun but this is an opportunity for that most of locally seeing the equipment that will make staying and motoring much more efficient and limiting the spread of disease and her site we would not have this opportunity without the support of both the merits office on the county council member thought behalf of them ok society i think it's in every one of you and we look forward to another productive the first person to testify in the council chamber is jim smith testifying on committee report sixteen dash one fifty two and committee report sixteen dash one fifty six mr smith will be followed by floor w numbers of the council this is a meeting that's so important because it's it's really understated there are two very very significant reports before you one has to do with water and the other has to do with urban design guidelines and i'd like to say that what we're looking at both directors ok of water and planning have come from different places in the same way so we have i'll talk first about this the director of of water and the sixteen one five six so in a meeting he comes to you walls as we see fit ok so you are so what we want you to do is give us some teeth so they've been enforcing a power they've been applying their authority without a policy and now they want teeth ok but their office brings the teeth so what is that about that's insulting to our counsel ok that that that should be dismissed if you don't need it don't come you don't have the power you need it come but don't inforce a power over time without the connection to you and it's been abandoned and that's what's happening because the executive branch has vacated the responsibilities and duties of the executive branch they feel good and they say don't blame me and that's it period done and what do you do you pick up the slack and you make all the decisions for them but that's not our political system they need to be held accountable for illegality what is the consequence of this who are directing to do doing those illegal acts no consequence because this council doesn't see the self as a guardian it doesn't see itself as a column of goodness that restricts abuse of power until you do all right what difference does it make why vote it's d like that and so you have to separate yourself and you haven't done it but you're the only ones you are the only council in that position as people because you've been under the gun that's why i'm so glad that  still receptive to these ideas another group would not even know what i'm talking about so thank you so much and success for all of you a lot of the next is a little more difficult because this is about urban design guidelines and a planning director that comes to you and says the same thing they've been enforcing these urban design guidelines they us some is this right or wrong whether or not in forcing an adopted act is legal you've got to ask a question you don't want to ask them for advance advice and that's this system that's what was brought in  hundred two and called an entity there are real model or more and comes forward here and now we have a managing director job coming up and we have a chair who will be mayor if it's changed without a lecture and all of this work about setting up the separation of powers is gone without a change in charter and that's because your role is a protector and you don't accept that because corporation council has a wonderful status in intellect and everything and you'd rather have him make the judgments on the issues that you were voted in to make the judgments on so that you can say basically it's ok because of our corporation counsel said it was but we know that doesn't work the courts are full of those events and we've lost  watchdogs were bought somebody who can make a difference it's about accountability and it's above consent i consent you hold them accountable simple as that very simple but if you don't hold them accountable what difference does that make if i consent i'm still getting stuck see that's the beauty of our system and that's go on and the vote is hinge ing upon you're holding them accountable and it may uncomfortable but that's the only reason why you're here from my perspective so i ask you to dismiss taking up this urban revue guides get a call in packs statement for the water bill get a fiscal impact statement so you know how much it's going to stick it to get this is submit this urban review plan to the planning commission or to the review board at least get it back on track because there have been change you're changing a map but it's not just a map these are people's properties that have little numbers on them and have little letters on them and they affect people ok because a director of planning  sitting in an office that is insulated from consent he can do what he wants because he's a planning director and how he feels and what he concerns on the day of it that you come to him is what he decides we've got to separate from that and i'm hoping you will do that with both of these things don't act it's the only it's the only choice you have is not to act and bring it out as a law they've left all the other don't return it to committee put it on the on the clerk's desk until you've got a financial impact statement until it's been brought to the review board but unless that is done for millet's you're part of the problem flora wong testifying on kind of communication sixteen two to three she will be followed by sherry d good morning i have more along my family was one of the twenty families that was directly impacted by the catastrophic flooding that happened on september thirteenth two thousand and sixteen thank you coun chair white and council members for the opportunity to testify in support of sixteen dash two to three first of all i want to think mayor our cholera for his swift action in issuing a disaster proclamation arrive to pick us up to shelter us in their home i also want to thank you council members and county administration governor david lieutenant governor shannon congress congress when congresswoman tulsi gathered and many others who surveyed the discussion destruction and damage first hand and extended their heart heartfelt care and concern all of your diligence resulted in the recent presidential disaster declaration approval i wholeheartedly appreciate the county being proactive with the emergency cleanup of the debris and yk river especially in the face of navigating jurisdiction challenges between the state and federal agencies such as the deal an hour and us corps of engineers after my family was safely evacuated by the maui fire department the  it was almost three weeks before we were able to return living in our home the first floors still being mitigated of the four feet of flood damage but were able to live upstairs with peace of mind knowing the emergency clean up of the river has made the county road safe and feel safe in our home however not all the flood affected families in the valley have the same peace of mind and security that do the initial cleanup work only concentrated on a small section of the river where the floodwater breached the to the county road some of my neighbors are still in harm's way because of the debris in the river and families all the way down to paul could call are in jeopardy if all the debris in the river is not removed funding for continued cleanup is just really needed to ensure debris won't cause future flooding issues i can attest first ten the effectiveness of the cleanup efforts and humbly request that additional funding be provided to ensure the health and safety of all families in the valley and elsewhere thank you thank you very just moments one members only for clarification hi good morning sherri dotson executive director for habitat for humanity molly i wanted to let you know that last time i testified we got into the issue of what our deed restriction was and unfortunately i hadn't looked at it in a while and it went back at your request put it on our agenda for our board meeting and it turns out i was wrong our deed restriction is actually thirty years not twenty years with the first ten years of no appreciation and then year eleven through thirty is a five percent share depreciation we also have a owner occupied clause in every the that we do required in with our deed restriction rule and also a right of first refusal our board did meet and discuss the issues that were brought up in council and as a result did a position statement and address that through this and i do recall i know it was a request in our committee report on september thirteenth in regards to the possibility of perpetuity fordable perpetuity yet i don't believe that was brought up in  the board minutes so it was not discussed it was discussed that for discuss changing the policy to include a provision for perpetuity and the board decided that they wanted to continue the current d support the next person to testify is cassandra testifying on committee report sixteen dash one forty five she will be followed by lisa he go ensures that public funds used to subsidize affordable housing remains invested in our community and perpetuity each one time public investment in the community land trust home indoors as a permanent part of the truly affordable pricing generation after generation given a ninety nine year renewable sustainable ground lease we're all familiar with the statistics about the short fall on affordable homes i've read everything from fourteen hundred to almost six thousand per year i wanted to share with you one of our most recent transactions we are in the process of reselling a small green land trust home that was originally purchased from the coast guard it was considered surplus and holly was able to acquire three of them we originally sold this particular home to a local family who previously owned a hole in holmes property and then we repurchased the home when the family was under contract to buy a market rate home so this is something that the  hopes will happen and now we know it does actually work we renovated the home before notifying approximately seventy families honor qualified home buyer list these are people that have completed our four step process including taking an eight hour homebuyer financial education workshop twenty two families of the seventy requested to tour the home and of those fourteen families submitted a statement of interest this is the first step in acquiring a home we're currently in the process of reviewing those and helping the families make a final decision on whether or not they are ready to acquire but what it shows is the high demand we have one house and we have fourteen families that want to purchase it if only we could provide houses for all of them were  fully requesting that you view the current bill for an ordinance favorably approving the six hundred sixty thousand requested from the affordable housing fund will assist us with soft costs including but not limited to water meter and board of education fees your approval will help us take the next large step in being able to deliver twelve new committee land trust homes to deserving maui families who are to avoid it also any further need for clarification yes discussion thank you and good morning thank you for being here that brings up a good point mr holcom i just spoke of and so do you have any idea what the dollar amount equates to for that person it's about seven thousand perhaps and water meter fees are about thirteen thousand

request to use county tax money to satisfy a state requirement on education assessment fees per lot i find that for in a sense from the state very distasteful and let me just share my experience in russia now for this these people will become residential home orders like other residential homeowners and our property tax system will be assisting us in those revenue sources which also helps to pay for parks and recreational facilities throughout our county one of the biggest beneficiaries of our parks and recreational facilities besides residential use is the state dewey department of education is need to use our facilities to do their curriculum requirements so that using county assets to take care of state requirements so this  from one portion of my perspective to the state to our property taxes for the state to use their facilities whether it be well spark the park above where the elementary while memorial football stadium i am our how baseball stadium oh nice the county facilities deal you know state has been negligent in taking care of their recreational requirements for their own curriculum needs revenue requirements for their purposes and i am asking the county now to help pay for their needs i think they need to take their responsibilities more responsibly if they need money to go and explain to the tax base why they need to increase revenue sources for the benefit of the community and our general public not cold and for me into this round above manner now where the county is going to have to pay for this to the state activities in my view couldn't survive were already fine at least seven state departments through this county budget maybe we need a constitutional convention soon additionally because this has to be really strict enough structurally and those that are given the obligations responsibility to perform need to perform or get out of the w others who can do it do the job for us thank you very much thank you mr okama members any further discussion on these items mr couch thank you mr chair and i appreciate mr obama's remarks and  you know when we saw that in the in the bill that they couldn't exam education fees you know that's that's one of the things that are temporary investigative group saw was the fees were part of the problem with the affordable homes so for the state to preempt us from waiving those fees just doesn't make sense if they really want fordable home so are same sentiments and put your agenda you know if they want us to continue to assist them in what their responsibilities are then by god well to be fair and give us the fair share of r t so we can do more i don't mind giving if you give back it sharing and they seem to be one sided and it's all if we give you unfunded mandate you figure it out and when we say what is our fair share to get and i see no reason that we need to give you any more we need to take care of our schools air conditioning and he went on and on and on no offense to the governor so what is our schools i really realized that but i also realize that you're obligated it was contractually agreed upon years ago and you slowly but surely change that contract in your favor and then when it's come to collective bargaining you and i both know we're stuck with the bills because you know full votes can lean one way or the other and we have no say and i just received communication i will share with others later that from the attorney general's office and corporation consul in regards to these matters but i can assure attorney but i will share it with you because i just got i just received it today and i'd like to make sure every one of you get a copy of that but you know mr chair i agree we should all come on this is very frustrating this is affordable housing hey help us out we want to get our people in housing and then we'll help you because these taxes not only real property but there's other taxes big big governments and not convenient taxes and other you know these people are going to help you to let's get off the stick of trying to tax and fee would fees on everything we do and about the way that we are treated by the state i think it's really sad we're all here for the same reason we're here to help our people and we're dealing with the housing crisis that's what we're dealing with and we should all be working together to get it done and this doesn't look like go to what we're trying to do to me you know i think that for the longest time we have sat here be moaning what the state does or does not do for us and i think it's time to stand up and say excuse me we are the state of the four counties make up the state of hawaii there is no other group of people we are the people of the state of away it bothers me that we seem to see these things separately there is no state of hallway without us and i think it's time we step up and be heard and i'm really excited because i see that angry about how we should be working together and we're not working together and so i do not want anything to hold up this affordable housing because i think it's important that we get going well homes destroyed homes is better than nothing but i do think that we need to get very active politically about this dichotomy between this state and the counties thank you thank you mr eisner discussion thank you share and i completely concur with my fellow colleagues comments thus far i want to just speak in reference to the habitat for humanity versus the holly or maui concepts in the in order to get garner the affordable housing that is truly needed i am in this support definitely of the concept of affordable i am more more so in support of the pre tutti aspect and that's why i brought up that point during deliberations with a habitat for humanity ask for the phones and then the comments this morning mean i guess there's fast on continue to keep the thirty year dude restriction you know th that in the end so i definitely want to see more of the purported homes built in perpetuity as we progress but i also hear the frustration in all of us in regards to the different levels of government and not truly working together this day and as the county you know i just came from sitting at a table up with the white house with your federal level and yes i was there via the colony voice and we had a state  official there and we were talking like we don't even know each other because they're all who i am are we county and that is that a reality there and when we come to the table to make decisions it's just the people in the mainland from a single state look at us and go awol are you just this little rocks in the middle of the pacific don't talk to talk to each other and it's like no no we don't but then hearing the same you know frustration on their and thank you i did or my colleagues as far as who's who should be taking care of work when it comes to the requirements for for the builder to me the most valuable thing that the habitat entity brings springs for it so we can say we support of course not holly or molly and then i support both drum that we're going to provide affordable homes affordable homes but we find every crevice why we cannot i think we've got to pay attention to how we can provide the affordable homes thank you those decisions on that too on each project if we had known that twelve of those units houses were going to be used for now we could've you know we have the power we have the authority to just go ahead and make a decision and say look those twelve well examined straight out and the rest of the units at market value could have gone you know not having the exemption we could have done that so might i i just  ton of other questions pop up my hat and out so maybe in the future we need to look at more or steadfast and if there's any way to retroactively change nothing further thank you thank you you know members it's just a reminder that you know the focus of these projects is to provide housing at a low as low cost as possible to people who are in the lower levels of the income income percentages and if the county is willing to waive the fees that would to upgrading our parks to mr okama as comment states would be willing to waive the fees that go to them because they're using our parks if you look at the added  fact that the state has made and made it clear that they have a one billion dollar surplus this year it's difficult for me and i'm i know for all of you to be comfortable with them continue to ask for those of us in the community who have the lowest income to reach into their pockets and space and pay the same that we expect out of somebody who's building a second home here so i you know i hope that we can i hope that the testifier is one hundred it's not that it could be waived if we decide to i don't think that's the case but we'll check that we're given one point five mil and you know it just reminded me my church had read recently got a letter you know highlighting the four doubles that are to be built view of the entity which is also but also asking for that sweat equity from our parishioners and our members to come and help and which are which is all good but you know i'm looking at a congregation of fifty sixty seventy eighty s and up year olds you know so they're coming into the community which is good to try and garner work and support and that's why equity to get these homes built and you know that's kind of a burden on our congregation to ask of our people so but i guess that's what they need in order to get them built and again in thirty years they can be flipped over to the market rate and that's where i do have dick of difficulty but again yes it serves a need for the time that it's needed which is now in the next thirty years for that family what have you that's awesome but you know the we the i guess the concept and the program and the way they go about it for me i tend to wish we proven program for the united states it is a proven program that works even the sweat equity they come to our church to come to all the community groups in all the areas so this is not unusual they also if you look at the always designed the first ten years you get no equating no change and the next twenty years five percent shared again they used the word shared equity so when that person walk that done but not in every program it doesn't fit this is not one size fits all and we better get it in our head that we've got to look at multiple facets because we need immediacy we need things done now if we stay and chuckle about this that and everything else we're not going to get it i believe it's time to do what we need to do stop talking about it and best start doing it and let's see what happens in the future thirty years is quite a substantial number of us that i'll say ten years i never like that but that's quickly turned around that sort of thirty years that's a generation plus so i will support habitat for humanity i know of the program i've been a part of the program i'm not afraid to put some sweat equity in other people's homes and you know what those people today have not only a home to live in but they also pay real property tax and o of the reasons is habitat for humanity is clientele is very special they take people who essentially have very very tiny amounts of money and when they're willing to help with sweat equity and get them in a home exit row percent interest they're serving a special clientele people who would never qualify for anything conventional so i think that we can be born knowing where we're going and definitely wanting flippers flippers i think are responsible for a lot of what we're dealing with today but for approving this money i think we should approve it and then maybe we want to spend more time in our hosing committee debating conditions and looking at things like having to pee for the educational assessments and looking at other things but for today i am in full support of this fund thank you thank  committer sixteen this one forty four the bill ninety five

the maui planning commission and the planning department recommended approval of the proposed bill your committee voted seven to zero to recommend passage of the proposed bill on first reading a file a move communications i respect us for the council support total years of service i have been very consistent how i look at t v in residential areas so i'm not planning to change my philosophy or position this morning regarding one five two support it for law and i will use the term lanes and standards because it's interesting someone in the department will see a guideline you say it's not a standard so we not the current off i mean director of the planning department and again in mr coaches report it goes back to maintain they knew what it was during the era of mayor lingo confirm any commission decisions over the last twenty six years on a policy that was never authorized interesting for me issues with that significant revisions to chapter in one thousand point one five then we are going to get used amending ordinances to change guidelines for more specific standards n so for me that was part of my issue rules versus guidelines from the ninety's and then trying to substitute or use the word caroline's and make it a standard mr smith was it was appropriate and pointed i'm going to support the measures before us but i think his his comments were were quite accurate in that and saying that we've had these these proposed guidelines on the books for twenty six years and they've been implemented and without authority it just reminded me of some issues that i think many people in the public have had with with planning and and d s a where they have interpreted  our ordinances or planning department rules in their own way and some in some cases that i'm very familiar with there was no basis in any ordinance or any rule for them to interpret the law the way they did this is just a reminder to me that we still have in the planning department three very large three ring binders of interpretations none of which have been turned into either rules or ordinances that's something that i brought up early in my time here on the council and i and listening to mr smith this morning i was feeling like i've i've not done my job to hold know hold the department's feet to the fire and either take these interpretations of they have and put them into ordinance or take those interpretations and put them into rule making and i think that's something that is something that they need to do because it's another one of those fager ways that they're able to to use as okama says guidelines not standards and interpretations are really difficult for the public to deal with when there's no validation either in a rule or in an ordinance and it was it was told to me when i questioned one about how it's been a long long time i can remember it's live in the neighborhood of fifteen years interpretation and we're not changing it's been our interpretation for ten years and we're not changing or for anything even though they couldn't point to anything in ordinance or the rules that gave them the justification for the force in the way they did so i think i think it may be well i support this measure i think this is an appropriate time for us to bring up thank you very much mr clerk relative to committee report sixteen dash one fifty two resolution sixteen

the money the great majority the money has been expended as you see that attachments we still have operating departments that has not  part of that mr chairman and members is of course the administration's great efforts to do proper documentation so that we do qualify for female consideration of reimbursement of county resources that is one of the for those that may have concern regarding the clock of the ninety days expenditure deadline or kept by the charter i'm happy to try to do the my gertie and for me if it's allowed it has been these monies are basically expended

three million that will he will be able to help support with at this documentation to justify their requests so at this time members i will leave the phone to this in a way that we can cover the immediate expense and then provide further due diligence on the remaining five point three million dollars so i really appreciate the a say i'm very thankful for that i know many of you have had an opportunity to tour the area and see the damage and destruction and i'm glad that you know the old saying wow picture's worth a thousand words and i don't have to cover a lot i have heard this from department of water parks public works other other agencies who up there working together and none of this it's your fault as you're responsible it's your responsibility it's your responsibility to just getting the job done i want to thank also the national guard to the governor's emergency proclamation getting their equipment and manpower up there not only helping us in our public areas but also assisting some of the residents in the cleanup also environmental management for putting bins up there and i also want to if i take just a little creating these all of this is i want to thank the mare because when we were in the i met with the ma they did in the first two days and then dig stopped and i saw a huge amount of people going in there and like was said earlier with their own rubbish joining to areas where they're not supposed to go into in danger not in their residence but themselves and our people our employees and since then since that monday there has been police twenty four hours seven days a week right there on a little and intersection and  fact i stop almost every day see well with several police officers there and ask oh postings going and they keep all telling me you'd be surprised how many tourists are still coming i just wonder if the hospitality industry could help us a little bit by announcing that that park is closed and not and encourage the visitors not to go up there i'm not sure and i've not had time to check into it but i will be calling the visitors bureau and the hospitality be a lot of repairs and that what the next segment will come into the next budget amendment is to help explain like those repairs that are needed but i want to take all of those who have made this possible and to assure the residents in the valley area that we are doing the best we can i know there's been a lot of jabbering about all this shooting move distance shouldn't do this about the river and all that right now we're in the point our trying to resolve and preventing any further damage and if we have any more rains we don't want anybody else to get hurt or damage in the river and yell valley so i do i see those who have been putting things on the e mails and saying that we're doing this wrong that wrong let's wait a little bit let's give us a chance to get things mitigated and then we can engage a little bit more with the public as far as what the future long term will be this is for immediate administration i want to bring we still common yourself and mitch weiss and others who went up there because again a picture's worth a thousand words i don't have to get into what needs to be done you seen it firsthand to the residents up there and to our visitors please be patient we're going to do it and we want to do it right and we want to make sure no one's in harm's way our personnel or our visitors or residents so if you don't need to be up there residents stay away and the visitors police please stay away from that area until we're completed with much of the mitigation and repairs that are necessary thank you mr chairman thank you mr victory and i would encourage you all to remember that we  have when the next the next item comes up we'll have time for much more in depth discussion about what needs to be because we'll have a lot of the facts and figures in front of us so today is just to pass out this  of victory not covered it very well but i had the opportunity to visit and i really appreciate that i was given the tour by a managing director it brought it home to me i had seen all the pictures on facebook and nights in the paper and h all but seeing it really makes you aware that this is our community and we have to do what we have to do to help these people we can't think about it we just have to do it and then we can figure out the paperwork later i had the opportunity to go to the homes of the he goes and the wonks and to hug them and pray with them because they went through some really and are still going through tough times and i think that it's something that this community and  constant can step forward to does alleviate some of the pain and suffering and i know others were affected and it's our job and legalistic homecoming says we've saved money for we need to be well unfortunately it rained really bad requirements we need a minimum of seven affirmative for us thank you thank you
