Please see this video from our President, Claire Tamamoto, and one of our Board Members, Jane Sugimura, regarding Honolulu City Council Resolution 1490:
It has come to our attention that Council Member Carole Fukunaga has been unfairly criticized for the removal of an item from the Public Safety & Economic Development Committee hearing agenda on Tuesday, August 26th. The ‘Aiea Community Association asked Council Member Fukunaga to remove Resolution 1490 (Requesting the City Administration to Develop a Multi-Purpose Community Center) from the Agenda. It’s the Association’s wish that this matter be heard at a subsequent meeting of the PSED Committee. We regret that this simple request has become politicized by Council Member Fukunaga’s opponent in this election.
