    Water is a public trust and should be managed by the people of Maui fairly, so I am in support of this charter amendment.

    I support full transparency and fair use and local management of the water on Maui. Private, for-profit uses should pay a reasonable and fair percentage for the privilege of using Maui's resource, so that all who live on the Island in community are respected and valued. Water for local food production and housing is a priority before foreign investment. We must have a balance. I would like to see new clean technology in accessing and preserving our valuable water sources. Let's Educate the Voter so they can make a good decision in November.

    Water is a public trust, and should be managed by representatives of the public for public benefit, not by a private business for profit. Maui is currently experiencing a severe drought, just when we need to build more affordable housing and expand our agricultural sector to promote food security. This means it is critical that the aging water collection, storage, and distribution systems in East Maui be upgraded and modernized to maximize our ability to collect and safely store rainwater, and distribute it in an efficient way, based on priorities that serve the needs of Maui’s residents, farmers, and ecosystems. For those reasons, I urge the Committee to pass this resolution.
