We have seen more business closures, more <br /> vacant retail and office space and far less people on our sidewalks. <br /> Relocating the community college to downtown would: <br /> 1. Breathe new life into Downtown Hilo. <br /> 2. Encourage landlords to invest in fixing up their buildings <br /> 3. Encourage support businesses to open up downtown locations such as office supply <br /> retailers, restaurants, etc. <br /> Look at how Hawaii Pacific University helped revitalize the Fort Street Mall of <br /> Downtown Honolulu. <br /> Y~o~u,,r~truly, <br /> U~ -d- o~. ,lam 268' .
