Our thanks to the Waikiki Neighborhood Board (NB) for their hospitality the evening of 8 January. Quieter O'ahu gave a short presentation about noise on O'ahu and across the state, current ordinances and statutes, general lack of enforcement, and provided several recommendation on how the NB organization could positively impact the noise problem. Thanks to Dr. Brian Bagnall of The Outdoor Circle and the newest Waikiki NB Board Member for the invitation. We hope we provided ideas that will enable the Waikiki NB to move forward. A special thanks, too, to the Waikiki resident attending the meeting who, despite our attempts to say "No," nonetheless insisted on making a contribution to the work of Quieter O'ahu with the comment that "...you can always use more stamps." It was a kind and gracious act and we are humbly appreciative. Mahalo nui loa! We'll be sure your donation is well invested!
