An enthusiastic, but smaller than average audience welcomed our three guests for Tuesday’s (9/18/12) community meeting, but perhaps Christine Andrews’ Nissan Leaf drew the most attention , as it related to her presentation on Electric Vehicles (EV’s).
After President Jon Miller announced the nominating committee for the 2013 KCA BOD, Ms Andrews gave her presentation about the benefits of all electric personal vehicles on Maui, followed by S. Kihei resident Rich Brunner, who explained how he was finally able to obtain a federal grant under “Safe Routes to School,” to help a school crossing area along Alanui Ke Ali’i be safer. Finally, Public Works Director David Goode addressed Bikeable and Walkable progress in So Maui, as well details on the proposed Waipuilani Beach Bike path.
Unfortunatel;y. due to major technological challenges, which prohibted any visual presentations, and caused a very late start, two of the three presenters were unable to remain for the panel discussion, although each make strong efforts to answer inquiries. Thus the panel was just KCA’s Jon Miller and Director David Goode for discussion and the audiences Q & A’s.
Next KCA event will be Oct 9 and 10 with Candidates forum on Akaku Community Television station( ch53), but no live audience. Next live community meeting is November 20.
Look for a complete report of meeting in Maui Weekly.
