We are here to testify on C6, but they are talking about item D8? Do they expect us to sit here all day and watch them waste our money instead of going in order? And the zoom is not streaming the meeting for some reason and my phone can't run the youtube and zoom simultaneously.

Aloha Travis, The BLNR doesn’t stream the Zoom. Testifiers are let into the Zoom meeting when the BLNR gets to the agenda item they’re testifying on. The BLNR moves the order of the agenda items around at the beginning of the meeting and sometimes moves them again during the meeting. The only way to know when an agenda item is being discussed is to watch the YouTube livestream. Often it takes several hours of waiting for the opportunity to give two minutes of testimony.

The way they talk is nonsensical. They are saying a bunch of words but seem to say nothing.

They just began the stream in zoom so that was nice of them. I feel pretty disgusting listening to this meeting. I'm sorry for you having to deal with this. I have no idea what is going on here, it looks like they are just using public funds to acquire land and restrict the public from using the land we helped pay for. It's really confusing.

Mahalo for testifying. It’s important that our opposition to this project is documented on record.

Thank you Tina. I will be doing more research on BLNR and DLNR. what I witnessed today made no sense and there is much to uncover still. This is not even a good attempt at pretending to care about public input in their part. I don't even know how anyone could look at what is going on and think it is appropriate. I'm serious about what I said earlier that they were casting a spell when they were clapping and chanting at the meeting. We pay them to get mind scrambled by voodoo and then deliberate after public comment (uncontested). The RAND corporation invented the Delphi technique for reaching group consensus. So when you speak the truth, they have to push that information out of their heads with cult, voodoo behavior.

"Motion passes unanimously"

Windward Aviation is a foreign registered LLC from Las Vegas driving helicopters around dropping disease vectors. They have no supportive data, they lie, they give authority and take land. They are out of control.

I don't think the BLNR had the aptitude to make these decisions
