WAILUKU REDEVELOPMENT
Thanks Anthony for a well written, factual and fair report (“Small Town Life,” Feb. 7, 2013). I think you represented well our thoughts and intentions, which I appreciate.
Only two things I read were a little off. When discussing Iao Plaza; the intent was for overflow theater crowds (not parking) in the plaza, and police parking in the new lot or the street (also not in the plaza).
Otherwise, awesome!

Wailuku Town has so much potential–but that potential will never be fulfilled unless there is real leadership. Parking issues? For what, da pawn shops?
A new logo? What is the substance behind what the logo means? Where is the vision for a new Wailuku Town that thrives with a new economy and new JOBS. Diversified JOBS.
Why aren’t we seeing new ideas for real change from the Office Of Economic Development? We need a plan. We need leadership. Not same status as always. A little bit of dis a little bit of that doesn’t cut it.
We should be proud and Wailuku Town should be a destination all the time, not just once a month. Where is the leadership? Where are the JOBS?

RESTROOM TALK
These bathrooms are a disgrace, including the one at Wailea (“Going to the Toilet,” Jan. 31, 2013). What a great impression the world must have of the legendary vacation spot known as Maui. Shameful.

How great is our lives… to be able to complain about public facilities not being clean. Could it be that just the sheer overuse could cause there to be a mess? There are a few bathrooms that need repair and face lifts, but who put that graffiti on that wall, or broke that stall door, or took wads of toilet paper and hand towels just to clog toilets and make spitballs. People rip off or break soap dispensers off the wall the same day they’re put in. If we’re left with bare basics in a public restroom then there’s no one to blame [but] ourselves.
