Aloha GREAT Committee Chair U'u-Hodges and Council Members,
Vernon Kalanikau, commenting on my behalf
I'm here to comment on Resolution 24-149.
I first met Brian Ward at our opening night as co-members serving on the South Maui Community Planning Advisory Committee.
As we worked together on drafting a community plan for South Maui, I did get to know Brian as the person, his role in Wailea and his passion and Aloha to malama and preserve the 'aina, the kai and the Hawaiian culture. When Brian engaged in our SMCPAC meetings, he demonstrated the importance of our cultural resources and our heritage should be a priority first in all discussions during our planning.
Brian also demonstrated objectiveness, inclusivity, integrity, respect and Aloha in all our meetings. Brian put in time and work, always prepared for the following meetings. Brian is passionate and cares for the South Maui community and he wants to continue to represent the community through his due diligence and knowledge that he has gained as a participating on the SMCPAC. The Maui Planning Commission will benefit from this gem, Brian Ward
Please join me GREAT Committee Chair U'u-Hodges and Council members in supporting Brian Ward to serve on the Maui Planning Commission.
Mahalo nui,
