" <br /> ~DO`I APi~~ 19 Fi!'I 8 <br /> April 20, 2004 <br /> C"~ <br /> COi.;~d i <br /> County of Hawaii County Council <br /> Hilo, Hawaii <br /> RE: BILL #178, REZONING REQUEST FROM CLIFTO'S KONA COAST LLC FROM <br /> A MG3A ZONING TO A PROJECT DISTRICT ZONING. <br /> To the Honorable Chauman James Arakaki and the County of Hawaii County Council, <br /> We aze writing to you today concerning Bill # 178. This is the rezoning request of Clifto's <br /> Kona Coast LLC to change their existing zoning of MG3a to a Project District on their 83 <br /> acre highway parcel which is located on the South side of the Natural Energy Lab of Hawaii. <br /> We understand this is on your County Council agenda for Apri121, 2004. <br /> As oar elected representatives, we strongly urge your approval to this zoning change for <br /> numerous reasons that are extremely beneficial to our community, you, your families and <br /> most importantly your constituents. <br /> We feel that Kona, North Kona and South Kohala aze in desperate need of alternative choices <br /> for housing, goods and services. We all are awaze of the current, continuing and increasing <br /> <br /> traffic problems in West Hawaii and feel that if given a viable alternative, we will gratefully <br /> <br /> embrace it and use it. The concept of providing substantial goods and services six miles <br /> <br /> North of Kona is most appealing and extremely logical. The equitable distribution of goods <br /> <br /> and services will greatly enhance our lives. There aze literally thousands of people who live <br /> in this azea and have no choice but to drive into Kona for their needs. No other choices at all! <br /> <br /> Just think of the thousands of cazs that will no longer drive into Kona and impact the only two <br /> roadways. The impact this project would have on the traffic issues and quality of life for us is <br /> immeasurable. Everybody wins! We also support Clifto's Kona Coast LLC's offer to <br /> <br /> provide 20% of his multi-family units to be deemed `affordable housing' which is double the <br /> <br /> requirement. This will greatly assist the many needy families with their battle in the ever <br /> increasing cost of living in Hawaii. <br /> <br /> Again, we need your help to improve our lives and the lives of the people of Hawaii whom <br /> <br /> you have been elected to protect and represent. With all the residential projects totaling <br /> <br /> thousands of units that have zoning in place and are going to be built in the very neaz future in <br /> West Hawaii, we need your support to approve this project so we can have a better choice for <br /> <br /> our vital goods and services. Please approve this rezoning request. <br /> Please contact us with any comments or questions. <br /> <br /> Mahalo and Aloha, <br /> <br /> Name: Blair Cole <br /> <br /> Address: 1078 B Kinau Street , Honolulu, HI 96814 <br /> Phone: (808) 292-2725 <br /> <br />
