Comments followed:

2. Motto -- Hurst acknowledged the Police motto.
3. Trouble at the Bars -- A community member asked if there were any troubles with the bars. Lieutenant Lee mentioned that after the Super Bowl 50, there were arguments. Chair Tam asked if there were any incidents after the bars closes at 2:00 a.m. Lieutenant Lee noted that the shift ends at 11:00 p.m. and there were only isolated incidents of trouble.

As there were no volunteers, Chair Tam deferred the filling of the vacancies until the next meeting.
RESIDENT AND COMMUNITY CONCERNS
Homelessness Art Proposal -- Kulani Watson wanted to bring awareness to the homelessness issue in Hawaiʻi and proposed an art work to be painted on the wooden "East Wall" at 1175 Kona Street. In Watson's Art Proposal packet, information and pictures were presented.
Comments followed:
1. Experience -- Ammons asked for Watson's art experience. Watson responded that he has experience covering up graffiti, but no murals. Ammons pointed out that the wall is long and a lone homeless man pushing a shopping cart with a "For rent" sign may not be enough. Watson wants people to focus on the lone figure.
2. Ownership -- Komine asked about the location of the wall. Watson mentioned that the site location is across from Chun Wah Kam restaurant on Pensacola Street and Department of Planning and Permitting (DPP) records note that the City and County of Honolulu (C&C) appears to be the property owner and may be used for the rail project, so the wall may be temporary. Komine asked for earlier notice of the project. Chair Tam noted that Watson was too late to be placed on the agenda, so Chair Tam encouraged Watson to come tonight. Komine did not remember the Board approving any artwork in Kakaʻako. Watson responded that most art works are by private entities, but this art proposal is on City property.
3. Art -- Chang mentioned that the proposed image does not convey the "Who pays?" idea. Watson responded that all art work is open to interpretation. Hurst asked and Watson responded that the "image projection" method will be used.
4. Final Comments -- Watson will be asking for the Board's support at a future meeting, as the Board will not be able to vote on his proposal tonight. Chair Tam advised Watson to see the City rail officials.
Chair Tam mentioned that there were other e-mails with community concerns, but will be read during Ammon's Homelessness Committee report.
COMMITTEE REPORTS
Health and Public Safety -- Committee Chair Larry Hurst noted that Subdistrict 1 and Subdistrict 2 were on the Federal "high crime" list with many thefts, car break-ins, and disorderly conduct, due to the bars. Another crime may include vandalism. A community member asked if there were any statistics of homeless versus non-homeless. Hurst mentioned that HPD may not record those statistics.
Community Relations -- Committee Chair Duane Komine noted that there was no report.
Hawaii Community Development Authority (HCDA) -- Committee Chair Rodney Chang deferred to Lindsey Doi of the HCDA, who reported the following:
• Next Meetings -- The next meeting will be on Tuesday, April 12, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. on the second floor of 547 Queen Street. The Board will be discussing the search committee hiring a consultant firm to fill the Executive Director position. On Wednesday, April 6, 2016 there will be a Heʻeia site tour on the Windward side. On Monday, April 4, 2016 the HCDA board will discuss the Cooke Street project. A new idea is 104 micro-units with 300 sq. ft. and 30 - 60% of Annual Median Income (AMI).
• Homeless Enforcement -- Doi noted that HCDA has weekly meetings about homeless enforcement at the Kakaʻako Makai Gateway Park and the staff knows the names of the homeless people. HCDA is working with the Governor David Ige's Office and social service providers and knows this will be a long-term project.
Comments followed: Night Meetings -- Ammons asked about HCDA meetings at nights. Doi responded that the first Wednesday regular monthly meeting is an all-day meeting. Supplemental public meetings are on Saturday mornings and/or on Tuesday evenings. These meetings are more formal, as a court recorder is present to take testimonies prior to decision-making.
Legislation -- Committee Chair Michael Zehner mentioned that there was no resolutions to discuss. Chair Tam mentioned that other Neighborhood Boards have passed resolutions and they will be discussed next month. Zehner asked which ones.
Parks and Water -- Committee Chair Ryan Tam reported that there was no Board of Water Supply (BWS) report and that the Pensacola Street Improvement project was reported last month.
Transportation Committee -- Pat Lee reported the following: The Honolulu Rail Transit Project (HRTP) is moving forward with over seven (7) miles of guideway construction completed.
• In East Kapolei and Waipahu:
o Foundation and column work has been completed from Kualakai Parkway to Farrington Highway near Waipahu High School.
o Crews are continuing with guideway, track installation and raised median work. Once the segments are installed, the equipment will be demobilized and moved to Pearl City.
o Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation (HART)'s contractor, Kiewit, has started installing new curbs and gutters along Farrington Highway for its roadway restoration work and this should be completed by end of summer.
o The Rail Operations Center is almost completed. The first four (4)-rail cars are arriving at the end of this month.
o Work on the stations in Waipahu and East Kapolei is starting.
• In the Pearl City/Aiea Area:
o Utility relocations, drilled shafts and foundation and column work are continuing along Kamehameha Highway.
o The second "balanced cantilever" which will cross over H-1 is underway near the Waiau Power Plant and Sears Distribution Center.
o The "KHG" (Kamehameha Highway Guideway) station group construction contract (Pearl Highlands, Pearl Ridge and Aloha Stadium) is pending. Stations should be completed by end of 2018.

Comments followed:
1. Art -- Komine questioned if the Proposed Homelessness Art project is under Neighborhood Board jurisdiction. Lee mentioned that there is a precedence in Pearl City where HART worked with the public schools to paint a mural over graffiti.
2. Ala Moana Center Terminus -- A community member asked and Lee responded that the rail project will be going to Ala Moana Center and not ending at Middle Street. The project will go 20 miles with 21 stations.
Homelessness Committee -- Before giving his report, Committee Chair William Ammons reported on the e-mail the Neighborhood Commission Office (NCO) received from Virginia Hinshaw, Chancellor Emeritus/Professor in the Department of Tropical Medicine, Medical Microbiology, and Pharmacology at the John A. Burns School of Medicine (University of Hawaiʻi). Ammons read the following:
"I have attached testimony that I provided at the HCDA Board nine (9) months ago. There are aspects that have definitely improved since then -- most sidewalks are no longer blocked with tents/structures and there are certainly fewer than the 300 homeless we had at that point. However, the situation is worsening again with an increasing population of homeless continually occupying parks and surrounding areas in Kaka'ako. As this problem grows, this neighborhood could again become the "Land of Squalor and Danger". This cannot and should not be allowed to happen again.
Sadly our public parks are no longer available for our citizens to enjoy, because the homeless trash the aina, leave dangerous drug paraphernalia in public places, have dogs that run loose, urinate and defecate in public view, fail to monitor their children (the young ones wander into the streets and the older ones throw rocks at cars parked there and/or engage in more violent behavior), block sidewalks and the list goes on. Health issues are certainly of concern with increased fly and mosquito populations because of the trash, human waste, and collected water left in the area. As a virologist, I, as well as many others, recognize that dengue and Zika viruses are potential threats facing the world, including Hawai‘i, and the situation in our area certainly breeds mosquitoes that can transmit both of these viruses.
The problems and risks related to the homeless living in the parks and streets have to be an issue for everyone who works, lives, plays or visits in the Ala Moana/Kaka'ako area, so I really would appreciate knowing what plans the Board has with regard to this situation. Mahalo for listening -- Virginia"
Ammons read the following:
• "Difference of Opinion" -- The Mayor Kirk Caldwell and the City Council differ on homelessness. Caldwell urged Council Chair Ernie Martin and his colleagues to support his plan to create a new, eight (8)-person Asset Development and Management Division to oversee programs and initiatives to provide affordable and homeless housing, as well as to manage existing City-owned affordable housing. Martin joked to reporters that all he had to offer the Mayor was a box of Kleenex tissues. Martin asked how much more money should be pumped into Housing First initiatives. Caldwell accused Council leaders of holding up two (2) housing projects. Martin said there are legitimate reasons. The operating budget proposal is for $2.3 billion, a $57 million, or two and one-half percent (2.5%) increase, from this year. The Capital Improvements package calls for $834 million in projects, $491 million of it for Federally-mandated sewer improvements. That is up from this year $569 million.
• Blood Bank of Hawaii -- Council Chair Ernie Martin wants the City to buy the Blood Bank of Hawaii's headquarters on Dillingham Boulevard in Kalihi and turn it into an all-in-one center devoted to helping homeless families. Mayor Caldwell is pleased that Chair Martin put forward this proposal.
• Faith-based Groups -- About 180 people representing Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Hawaiian, Christian and Muslim faith-based groups gathered at Central Union Church to learn how they can reduce homelessness. State Attorney Douglas Chin told the gathering that faith-based groups could help by partnering with social service agencies to help the homeless.
• Homeless Sweeps -- Homeless sweeps have turned into a ritual of moving and returning. The homeless go across the street during sweeps and wait until morning time and move right back into the park. At the same time Scott Morishige, the State's homeless coordinator said homeless service providers since August 2015 have relocated 230 homeless people from Kakaʻako into long-term shelters.
• Deputy Sheriffs -- A proposal before lawmakers is for the State to create a team of 12 deputy sheriffs for evicting homeless from State land is estimated to cost more than $2 million. The idea has the support of the Attorney General and the Department of Land and Natural Resources.
• Lloyd Pendleton -- Talks are underway between Mayor Caldwell and Lloyd Pendleton from Utah to move to Hawaii to help Oahu reduce homelessness. Pendleton, who is 75 years old, retired as Utah's homeless coordinator. Caldwell plans to find money in his Administration's budget to hire Pendleton.
• Institute for Human Services (IHS) -- The Institute for Human Services (IHS) now has a job training van that brings job-seeking aid to the homeless. Through a grant-in aid from the City, IHS spent $37,116 for its new van."

Choe added that Councilmember Ozawa's newsletter was available and that he could hear concerns.
State Representative Tom Brower -- Representative Brower distributed his report and highlighted the following:
• Homeless -- Representative Brower heard Virginia Hinshaw's letter and agreed that conditions have improved from a year or two (2) ago. Representative Brower walked the district and with Hinshaw's permission will share her letter with fellow legislators. The camps are growing again. Representative Brower introduced a bill to move the area under HCDA to the City, but people are happy with the current HCDA Board. Maybe, the proposed art work could be moved closer to the Capitol and HCDA.
• Resident Manager of the Year -- Representative Brower mentioned that Duane Komine was nationally- recognized as "Resident Manager of the Year." So, Representative Brower and the House of Representatives recognized Duane Komine as Resident Manager of the Year. Pictures were taken.
Comments followed:
1. Jurisdiction -- Hurst mentioned the State/City politics. Representative Brower mentioned that for a time in the past there was co-operation, but it has dissipated.
2. Fly the Homeless Back to the Mainland -- A community member asked and Representative Brower responded that one (1) idea was to fly the homeless back to the mainland if there were someone to meet them. The bills failed at the Legislature for various reasons. Representative Brower added that The Institute for Human Services (IHS) and hotels are sending people back. This an example where the government did not act.

Installation should take place within the next two (2) to four (4) weeks.
Comments followed:
1. Bulb Outs -- Hurst requested bulbs outs for Pensacola Street and King Street 15 years ago to slow down traffic. Deputy Director Garrity agreed that many intersects may need these improvements.
