Scott & Lisa Orvis <br /> 75-275 Nani Kailua Drive <br /> Kailua-Kona, HI 98740 <br /> lJ _ <br /> r•~1 <br /> County Council - <br /> Councilman James Arakaki - <br /> 25 Aupuni St. <br /> Hilo, HI 96720_-~ <br /> Dear County Council, - `D ' <br /> - <br /> My name is Lisa Orvis, and my husband and I live at the bottom of Nani <br /> Kailua Rd, just above the stoplight on Queen K highway. I'm writing to <br /> give you feedback on how the proposed Nani Kona Aina subdivision <br /> would impact our lives. My hope is you will go back to the drawing board <br /> on this one and investigate other options for the increased traffic. <br /> I understand the developer has agreed to complete the road that would <br /> join the Aloha Kona and Kailua View Estates subdivision with those off <br /> Hualalai Rd in an effort to relieve the added traffic that would be generated <br /> by new homes. However, most of the traffic is not trying to get up to <br /> Holualoa, and going down Hualalai Rd. is not as quick as using Nani <br /> Kailua Dr, to get to the highway. For these reasons, my husband and I <br /> anticipate that the current plan is not sufficient to alleviate the traffic <br /> problems that will be created. <br /> We anticipate having a huge increase in the number of cars going up and <br /> down our residential street. This is of concern to us as it is already a road <br /> where many go way too fast for a residential area; having more cars can <br /> only add to the hazard. There are many many driveways opening onto <br /> the main road; it's already somewhat risky backing out into the road to <br /> exit our homes. There would be a much higher likelihood of an accident <br /> for those of us living on Nani Kailua if there is a substantial increase in the <br /> number of cars on the road. <br /> We know Kona cannot stay our small town forever and ask only that <br /> making room for new residents does not substantially impact the quality of <br /> life we already enjoy. In this instance, we see a need for another option <br /> for traffic; perhaps an access road alongside the Aloha Kona subdivision. <br /> Thank you for your help in this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ~J w ~ ~ ~ ~ ~s Comm.
