Is someone updating the website at all? It would be nice if we could be kept updated on hours, days off and status of the roof and maybe any conditions that might close the range down for a day or more.

I missed my day at the range today!  >:( >:( >:( I was busy working around the house and lost track of time. By the time I saw the range was open it was 1:30pm!  :o :o :o

Range Changes I hope to see in my life time.

1. Longer Hours at least on the weekend.
2. Clearer set of rules.
3. more parking or better established parking areas.

What would you guys like to see?

All of the above + better restrooms, frequent upkeep and maintenance, longer range.
Most of all an other range on the westside! 8)

The website put up and payed for by a volunteer who worked at the range. Unfortunately, he does not work there anymore, from what I've heard.  :(

this is complete bullshit! Please can we get some funds for OUR LOCAL RANGE! 

Work those city reps!  Let them know that you want your tax dollars spent on this park.
Here is the contact info. Drop them a line.  :thumbsup:

About the restrooms. Thank you to whomever puts a bar of soap in there.
I gotta remember to bring and replace a bar next time.

Does anyone know if he is going to keep the site updated? Does he want to continue to keep paying for the domain name and hosting?

Do NOT get the Wife started on the "restrooms".

She has a bad hip. 

We know another couple whose wife uses a wheelchair.

You'll see them helping at the HRA table during the different Fairs.

Range is defineately Not Handi-Capped friendly.

Just wondering, has anyone Seen the Budget for the Range?

How many Full time employees and Part time?

Since the range has shorter hours, are the Full time workers stil getting the same pay?

Or has their pay been cut back in keeping wit the hours actually Open?

Interesting to see what provisions there are in the Budget for Maintenance, Repairs and Others.

About the $15 per hour fee, will there be a sign-in/out form for the various clubs to fill into Ensure the Range Person was there the

entire time that particular club used the range? Just like HPD special Duty officer(s) when they go to a job requiring a SD Officer.

This is being ran as $15 dollar a hour range use fee, not attendant fee.

I don't think this is in the regulations anywhere I have seen.

Given this is a state run facility, wouldnt this fee approval be subject to a vote?

KHS is operated by the C & C of Honolulu. It falls in District 4. Councilman Stanley Chang is the councilman for District 4. Call him to voice your concerns.

Anything for 2010 or 2011?

How about for FY 2012?

Has anyone actually observed Lead removal being done?

Electricity is probably lights for the restroom, run the speaker system, run the clays(?).  That being said the expense looks very high.

..........agreed..........what the hell is "Recreation?"

..........and $40k/year for maintenance is actually pretty cheap.  I'm surprised it's that low.

I've never seen lead removal being performed.  Obviously it would have to be during off hours, so unless people go there during the week, there's a 0 chance you'd see that.  The area would also have to be isolated during the removal.  In any case that $3m number is just too nice.  It looks to just be a number that's thrown out there for a budget rather than something that's actually been paid.
