Q1. Currently, it appears that OHA will not be abletogenerate their targeted revenue due to height limita-

tions. Perhaps OHA and the state should revisit the conveyance based upon these restrictions. A change in the location of previously agreed-upon parcels and/or additional landholdings within the inventory of the state may be in order. As in the past, eommunity outreach needs to eoniinue

before decisions are finalized. Q2. Nation building will take many hands. I am supportive of efforts whieh empower our native Hawaiian people. With this empowerment we must also realize that a responsibility to work together and build eonsensus whenever and wherever possible must be part of the process. As an elected official, I will provide support and assist when necessary. The key to success is collaboration. If done together, we ean all move forward as a nation and as a people.
