Resignation Resistance Climbs to 13

Office of Gov. Neil Abercrombie

Two more appointees asked by Gov. Neil Abercrombie to resign say they will not do so.

Thomas Contrades of the Land Use Commission and Carlito Caliboso of the Public Utilities Commission told Civil Beat Wednesday that they have decided not to leave their posts.

"I have no intention of resigning," said Contrades.

Caliboso said he sent a letter late last week "respectfully declining the governor's request."
