Questions, comments, and concerns followed – [0:08:42]
1. High Citation Numbers: Zoya Switzer, resident, asked why citation numbers were so high.

2. Catalytic Converter Thefts: Zoya Switzer, resident, expressed concern about catalytic converter thefts and police response. Corporal Makino explained that to make an arrest, a complainant (vehicle owner) must pursue charges, but reports are forwarded to detectives for further investigation.
3. Vandalism Concerns: Hayden, resident, asked about HPD’s approach to vandalism, particularly graffiti. Corporal Makino encouraged reporting incidents to establish trends and enable enforcement operations.
4. Graffiti Removal: Member Susan Gorman-Chang asked about city programs for graffiti removal. Corporal Makino explained that city property (like parks) can be reported to the city for cleanup, while private property owners are responsible for their own cleanup.

Approval of Initial Convening Meeting Minutes – [0:16:30]: Chair Clark noted that without quorum, the board could not approve the minutes from the August 14, 2025 meeting.

Consideration of Resolution: Children’s Safety Along Sidewalks on Papipi Road – [0:17:35]: Chair Clark presented concerns about signs placed in the middle of sidewalks along Papipi Road fronting Ewa Beach Elementary School, creating hazards for children walking and biking to school.

Questions, comments, and concerns followed – [0:21:36]
1. Safety Incidents: Rachel Kuchar. resident, described how her kindergartener’s bike tire hit a post, causing him to fall into the road. She advocated for removing the signs and adding barriers or buffer between the sidewalk and road.
2. Navigation Difficulties: Hayden, resident, described difficulties navigating around the signs while biking, noting near collisions with other cyclists and pedestrians. He mentioned that the removal of the sigs will be incredibly helpful.
3. Barrier Proposal: Caitlyn Ward, resident, suggested installing barriers along the edge of the sidewalk, potentially mounting the signs on top of these barriers.
4. Community Engagement in Problem Resolution: Zoya Switzer, resident, asked how long it would take for this issue to be resolved and is there is anything that the community can do to help speed up the process. Chair Clark mentioned that just attending the board meeting alone can help solve issues. In addition, bringing more people to these meetings will jump start resolutions since representatives are present to hear the concerns.
5. Board discussion/suggestion: Member Espino suggested consolidating signs to reduce obstacles, measuring sidewalk width to ensure ADA compliance, exploring alternative sign placement options and considering barriers between the sidewalk and road. Chair Clark noted this item would be tabled for a formal resolution at the next meeting when quorum is established.

Consideration of Resolution: Air Conditioning Systems at Ewa Area Schools – [0:34:44]: Chair Clark discussed a state audit revealing problems with the Department of Education’s implementation of air conditioning systems in schools.

1. Classroom Conditions: Zoya Switzer, resident, reported her son’s classroom air conditioning broke down. She explained that the solar-powered units don’t work well, with some panels incorrectly positioned under trees or facing away from the sun.
2. Student Perspective: Kilohana Lele, resident, a proud parent and one of the parent representatives in the school community council read a letter from her son, Tamatoa Lele, a fifth-grade student which stated that their classroom is uncomfortable and they deserve to have AC so they can enjoy learning.
3. Board Members Express Support for Classroom AC Solutions: Member Gorman-Chang thanked the parents and the students who attended the meeting. She also agreed to the testimonies from the community that not having AC in the classrooms affects the student’s ability to function and learn. Member Plowman brought up his concerns and commented on how the budget was spent on the AC projects. He fully supports in getting this right and hopes that this time, there is efficiency. Member Borgia also made a comment that he taught for over 10 years and it’s tough to teach in a hot classroom. He hopes that whatever plan we have going forward, preventive maintenance is included in the budget.
4. Principal Advocacy: Principal Jay Lin of Ewa Beach Elementary School expressed appreciation for parent involvement and suggested evaluating simpler conventional AC systems like window units that are easier to install and maintain and establishing clear policies for school-directed AC programs to ensure schools follow proper procedures for electrical assessments and installations. Chair Clark noted this item would be tabled for a formal resolution at the next meeting.
