This is the rezoning request of CGfto's Kona <br /> Coast LLC to change their existing zoning of MG3a to a Project District on their 83 acre highway <br /> parcel which is located on the South side of the Natural Energy Lab of Hawaii. We understand this <br /> is on your County Council agenda for Apri121, 2004. <br /> As our elected representatives, we strongly urge your approval to this zoning change for numerous <br /> reasons that are extremely beneficial to our community, you, your families and most importantly <br /> your constituents. <br /> We feel [hat Kona, North Kona and South Kohala are in desperate need of alternative choices for <br /> housing, goods and services. We all are aware of the current, continuing and increasing traffic <br /> problems in West Hawaii and feel that if given a viable alternative, we will gratefully embrace it <br /> and use i[. The concept of providing substantial goods and services six miles North of Kona is <br /> most appealing and extremely logical. The equitable distribution of goods and services will greatly <br /> enhance our lives. There are literally thousands of people who live in this area and have no choice <br /> but to drive into Kona for their needs. No other choices at all! Just think of the thousands of cars <br /> that will no longer drive into Kona and impact the only two roadways. The impact this project <br /> w;,uld have on the traffic issues and quality of life for us is immeasurable. Everybody wins! We <br /> also support Clifro's Kona Coast LLC's offer to provide 20% of his multi-family units to be <br /> deemed affordable housing' which is double the requirement. This will greatly assist the many <br /> needy families with their battle in the ever increasing cost of living in Hawaii. <br /> Again, we need your help to improve our lives and the lives of the people of Hawaii whom you <br /> have been elected to protect and represent. With all the residential projects totaling thousands of <br /> units that have zoning in place and are going to be built in the very near future in West Hawaii, we <br /> need your support to approve this project so we can have a better choice for our vital goods and <br /> services. Please approve this rezoning request. Please contact us with any comments or questions. <br /> <br /> Mahalo and Aloha, <br /> Larry K.
