The Hawaii Police Department will hold a community meeting on Tuesday, June 17, noon-2 p.m. at the Hawaiian Homes hall in Waimea.

The purpose of the meeting is to allow the public to meet the department’s command staff and to discuss concerns with the police chief and commanders who oversee police operations in the South Kohala District.

This event continues the district community meetings, which are rotated throughout the eight police districts on the Big Island. To aid police commanders in focusing on specific concerns, it is requested that participation be limited to persons who live or work in the South Kohala District.

Those interested in participating but unable to attend may call Maj. Mitchell Kanehailua at 326-4646, ext. 270, stop by the South Kohala police station in Waimea, or e-mail concerns or comments to copsysop@hawaiipolice.com.
