Hawaii blogger Ian Lind reports that a City Council committee will consider a resolution this week calling for disbanding the Clean Water and Natural Lands Commission, which was set up after voters approved a 2006 change to the City Charter setting aside funds for protection for “still undeveloped and important environmental and aesthetic assets…vulnerable to ongoing development, commercial interests, and urban sprawl.”
