EVICTION NOTICE

Just got our official EVICTION NOTICE posted today on our doors.  The director of the State of Hawaii Department of Health, Chiyomi Fukino, is insisting we vacate the premises.  We have been told of the different plans she have for the building we presently occupy.  We have been working diligently to accommodate the demands of Chiyomi Fukino, the Director of the State Department of Health (DOH), while still trying to allow our school to function and serve the larger community. We were hoping to come to a workable solution, such as allowing the school to continue to use the building while DOH seeks the funding and permits they will need to construct their new facility. This would allow the school the time necessary to relocate. Unfortunately, Ms. Fukino has refused to speak directly with us.

Fortunately, we have have been offered another location by Windward Community College and we are doing our very best to pursue that opportunity but time is definately needed, which Ms. Fukino refuse to allow.  HLC continues to believe that both of programs – DOH and HLC - provide important services to our surrounding communities and both along with WCC and the Kāne‘ohe Regional Park have significant justification for maintaining a presence on the Kea‘ahala uplands area. For more information on this issue, please read our latest newsletter editions:  June 2010 and May 2010.  I want to encourage everyone to read these newsletter editions and you will see how hard HLC have been working to continue to support our students and program.
 
This is a HUGE issue that need to be solved.  It affects our future generation.  I believe we must stand for what's right "KUPONO" and best for the majority of our community.  Not only for our benefit but the benefit of our future too.
