10/10/2008 - County receives Conservation Innovation Award - LĪHU‘E – In recognition of its conservation efforts, the County of Kaua‘i was recently awarded a Conservation Innovation Award from the Hawai‘i Conservation Alliance (HCA). The County was among a host of others who were acknowledged by the Alliance. “A remarkable revolution has occurred in Hawai‘i over the past five years with increased acquisition of conservation land,” said HCA Executive Director Deanna Spooner, whose mission is to promote effective long-term management of Hawai‘i’s ecosystems. “This quantum leap in conservation was not achieved because of the efforts of just one organization,” Spooner said, “but rather by a massive shift in perception and participation by Hawai‘i’s citizens, political leaders and agencies.”
10/10/2008 - Relating to Council Executive Meetings - Six amendments, or changes, proposed to the Kaua’i County Charter will appear on the 2008 General Election ballot on November 4. One of the amendments that you will vote on is: Should the Kaua‘i County Charter be amended to conform to state law requiring that all meetings of the County Council be open to the public unless allowed to be closed under the State Sunshine Law, Chapter 92, Hawai‘i Revised Statutes?
10/9/2008 - Applications due for NCU certificates - LĪHU‘E – The Planning Department is reminding owners of single-family transient vacation rentals (TVRs) located outside of visitor destination areas that the deadline to submit applications for Non-Conforming Use Certificates (NCUs) is Wednesday, Oct. 15. No late applications will be accepted. A bill passed by the County Council earlier this year requires owners to register their TVRs or apply for a Non-Conforming Use Certificate. The certificate application is available at the Real Property Assessment office located next to the Motor Vehicle Registration office at the Līhu‘e Civic Center. This form is also downloadable from the county website, www.kauai.gov or www.kauaipropertytax.com on the forms and handouts page.
10/9/2008 - Kaua‘i has highest compliance rate in Click It or Ticket campaign - LĪHU‘E – Since the Click It or Ticket campaign started in Hawai‘i six years ago, Kaua‘i has taken the No. 1 spot nearly every year. Yesterday, the results of the 2008 campaign were released showing Kaua‘i with a compliance rate of 98.76 percent, the highest in the state ever. Statewide, Hawai‘i ranked among the top in the nation with a 97 percent compliance rate. “Kudos go to Kaua‘i residents for achieving a milestone,” said Lt. Mark Scribner, head of the Kaua‘i Police Department’s Traffic Safety Unit. “We want to thank everyone for buckling up and doing their part to keep our roads safe.”
10/8/2008 - Coastal geologist assists county with managing coastal resources - LĪHU‘E – In an effort to improve management of Kaua‘i’s coastal resources, the County has partnered with the University of Hawai‘i Sea Grant Program. The County Council provided a $70,000 grant this fiscal year to the UH Sea Grant Program which helped to make it possible for coastal land use specialist James O’Connell to set up an office on Kaua‘i. O’Connell’s primary responsibility is to provide technical and outreach support to the county relative to the preservation of coastal resources and mitigation of coastal hazards.
10/7/2008 - Three added to Planning Department staff - LĪHU‘E – After a lengthy search, the Planning Department recently hired three planners, bringing the total number of county planners to eight. “We’re pleased to have three new planners who are well-educated and come with high recommendations, said Planning Director Ian Costa. “I am optimistic that they will play major roles in moving a number of our projects forward.” Lisa Ellen Smith was hired as the Coastal Zone Management (CZM) planner and Leanora Kaiaokamalie and Marie Williams were brought on board as long range planners.
