Aloha Mayor Hannemann -

My name is Kenneth Romero, and I am a performing artist and community organizer in Honolulu. I am writing to let you know that myself and my community of artists fully support the idea of a compromise bill and the veto of Bill 71. Thank you for for considering what is best for the interests of all concerned!

Thank You,

ORIGINAL CALL FOR SUPPORT BY LOCAL ACLU:

---------------------
Dear Street Performers and all interested,

Mayor Hannemann is considering vetoeing Bill 71 and introducing a bill that
would balance the rights of street performers and pedestrian safety. He
needs to know that you are in support of the compromise bill. The new
compromise bill designates a number of spots in the four block area of
Kalakaua previously identified in Bill 71 that would be available for
performances from 7-10 pm through a lottery and permit system. There will be no performance restrictions at any other times or in any other areas. The
new bill will have to go through the public hearing process before it can be
passed.

To show support for the Mayor's veto and for the compromise bill,
please submit testimony to the city council orally and in writing. In
addition, please contact the Mayor to show your support via email at

mayor@honolulu.gov

or

Mayor Mufi Hannemann
Honolulu Hale, 530 S. King St.,
Honolulu, HI 96813.

Thank you.
