ALOHA,

PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING ON FOR EWA DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Here is the text from an email I received from Bob Stanfield on this:

"We learned yesterday that the Planning Commission hearing on the proposed changes to the 'Ewa Development Plan which were recommended as a result of the 'Ewa Development Plan Review will be held on Jan. 25, 2012. Previously, it had been thought that the hearing would be on Jan. 11, but the hearing had to be postponed so that the Commission could complete the contested case hearing on the Waimanalo Gulch Landfill Extension.

The official notice for the hearing which will give the time and place of the hearing is scheduled to be released on Jan. 9 and published in the Star-Advertiser on Jan. 13. We will send an e-mail notice with a copy of the official Planning Commission Hearing notice when it is released."
