Aloha HP, tenants, 

Today I saw these flyers on cars in Pupukea beach park. This is illegal commercial Activity and violates the settlement agreement. Please remove all flyers immediately And acknowledge that you have told all Employees in writing not to do so in the future. I did not report to HPD today but will do so in the future if we see this again.  Please reply and confirm you understand this message and have follow up w tenants esp the shrimp truck. 

Mahalo, Denise

Response

Hi Denise - Hi Denise - Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We forwarded your message to the tenant who responded that they were unaware and found out that a young employee who did not know the rules had done this on their own. They have communicated with their employees that this is not allowed and confirmed that it will not happen again.

Aloha, Hanapohaku
