Mayor’s

County of Hawaii and a larger vehicle entrance are also part of the renovation project, which took only three months to complete.

Hard work and dedication by the contractor, county employees and volunteers allowed a thoroughly renovated and expanded Edith Kanaka’ole MultiPurpose Stadium to be completed and blessed in time for the recent 50th annual Merrie Monarch Festival.

Hawai’i County maintenance employees, electricians, plumbers, welders, carpenters, grounds crews and tree-trimmers collectively spent more than 1,000 hours improving the stadium and the surrounding grounds. In addition to performing their normal duties, the employees’ work included replacing worn bleacher seat and foot boards, plumbing fixtures, and electrical fixtures, adding landscaping, installing new signs and fabricating guardrails to improve the safety of bleacher spectators.

Everyone had to move fast in order to allow the stadium to be reopened for the March 31 start of the Festival’s golden anniversary celebration. We thank Isemoto Contracting Co. Ltd., its 15 subcontractors and all the volunteers whose tireless work helped to meet a rigid construction deadline to accommodate this incredible Hawai’i Island event. A wonderful blessing was performed by Kahu Leifi Hao of Ka Hoku Ao Malamalama church in Keaukaha, and we were joined by Parks and Recreation Director Clayton Honma, County Council members Dennis “Fresh” Onishi and Valerie Poindexter, former County Council member Donald Ikeda, Merrie Monarch Festival organizers, and representatives of the contractors and community organizations who worked on the project. Anchored by a new 4,200-square-foot building featuring six dressing/meeting rooms and tiled restrooms, the project has modernized a facility used year-round by the entire community for such varied public events as trade shows, school graduations, and its signature event, the world famous Merrie Monarch Festival. A new color scheme, native landscaping, new fencing and covered side entrances now greet stadium users. Inside, they will see an expanded lobby, larger concession area complete with new roof coverings and lighting and a freshly painted interior. An upgraded electrical system to support enhanced lighting and sound system capabilities, a replacement sewer line, drainage improvements

Dozens of community volunteers also provided vital painting, landscaping and other facility improvements that saved taxpayer dollars. The county wishes to recognize and thank the Jehovah’s Witnesses – Hawai’i Circuit 5 members, Hilo Jaycees, 1st Battalion 12th Marines, Hawai’i Community Correctional Center inmates, East Hawai’i District Tennis Association, Hawai’i Carpenters Union, Local 745, Hilo High School tennis teams, and tennis players from Hilo-area schools for contributing their time and efforts toward the renovations. The Edith Kanaka’ole Multi-Purpose Stadium upgrade is the anchor of a $4 million revitalization of the Ho’olulu Complex, which has been used for various recreational events in Hilo since the 1800s. Other upgrades include work on the Afook-Chinen Civic Auditorium, Aunty Sally Kaleohano’s Lu’au Hale and multiple support buildings. Originally called Ho‘olulu Stadium, the multipurpose stadium was later re-named in honor of Edith Kanaka’ole, the heir to a generations-old tradition of hula and chant. Born in Honomū, she was a teacher and inspiration to many through her family’s Hālau O Kekuhi, Hawai‘i Community College, and the University of Hawai‘i Hilo. She passed away in 1979. Mahalo,

HOME BUYING

SIMPLIFIED Create a “Must-Have” Checklist Before You Start To Make the Search Easier. Looking for a home to buy is similar to any shopping excursion. You can either impulse buy and risk buyer’s remorse, or target your needs and find the perfect house. Before you shop, arm yourself with a list of priorities.

Evaluating Prospective Homes After setting your priorities, begin your search on HomesAndLand.com and in each issue of Homes & Land Magazine. As you find homes of interest, put them in a file and note which features match your list of needs. Compare each listing with your graded priorities. Focus on your “A” items, and your “must-haves.”

DrEAM HOME

IN tHE PErFECt NEIGHBOrHOOD People can generally afford a house that costs from two to three times their annual income. For example, if your annual household income is $100,000 then you could afford a house worth $200,000 - $300,000. This is a general rule of thumb and does not take into account any debt or general lifestyle expenses. Before leaping into a set price range, make sure you know the mortgage payment you can comfortably afford. Create a budget that lists and totals all of your current financial obligations and living expenses.

Tip: Working with a lender for pre-approval can be a good negotiating tool when making an offer.

Mortgage professionals can help you determine specific payment amounts for mortgage, insurance, taxes and other escrow accounts. This worksheet can help you formulate your expenses for more accurate mortgage advice.

SELLING MADE

SIMPLE Get Your Home in Picture-Perfect Condition There is a reason why the language of real estate sales includes terms like “showing” and “staging.” A home needs to be tidy, clutter-free and camera-ready before it hits the market. Buying a home is a sensory experience. That’s why a home must look, feel and even smell appealing. The property needs to be well maintained throughout the sales period since potential buyers can surface at any time. Fixing broken items and refreshing the home helps make the sale happen faster.

SEttING tHE StAGE Empty rooms can make it harder for buyers to envision how their own furniture may look in a new home. Having minimal furniture and decor can make homes more appealing to prospective buyers. “Staging” or showing your home in the best light is extremely important for getting your home sold quickly.

StAGING tIPS Use these 9 easy steps to help sell your house 1. Make repairs and get organized before marketing your home in any fashion. This particular rule should apply whether you have already moved and your house is vacant or if you are still occupying the space. 2. Liven up your house with fresh flowers and plants; however, be careful not to overwhelm the space. Safely placed candles can also add to the ambience. 3. Play soft and soothing background music. 4. Bake cookies to emit the fragrances that trigger “homey” feelings, arrange bowls of potpourri, install air fresheners, or burn oils that release proven natural comfort aromas like vanilla, apple or cinnamon. 5. If appropriate, in colder months have a fire in the fireplace. 6. Brighten up dark corners by turning lights on in every room. 7. Keep window treatments and blinds open to provide unobstructed views. 8. Leave a closet door open to make the organized and ample space obvious. 9. Put freshly folded towels in the bathrooms.
