Pilago and Pete Hoffman, <br /> Chairs of the Committee on Planning <br /> Hawaii Island County Council <br /> Dear County Council, <br /> As a long-time (15 years now seems to qualify as long-time) home owner and farmer here in South <br /> Kona I urge you to consider the future of our island home carefully and approve Draft 1 of Bill 163. <br /> We have been operating on a seriously out-dated plan for the entire time I have lived here!! <br /> We MUST have a far reaching and growth regulating plan in place if we are to consider Hawaii, <br /> especially Kona, a habitable place for kama'aina as well as newcomers and tourists in the future. <br /> Draft 1 was done carefully and contains well-thought out guidelines for growth, considering the <br /> many factors involved. Please, let's not continue to sell our precious land to the highest bidder. Let's <br /> install a plan with a long vision that can guide us into a truly prosperous future with environmentally <br /> <br /> friendly infastructure as well as slow and healthy growth. <br /> <br /> Thank you for considering my opinion. <br /> Diana Duff <br /> Comm. No. 2.28 <br /> Ref, To: G <br /> Ref. Uote <br /> 1 <br /> <br />
