photo by Jerry Rothstein taken January 6, 2005 <br /> SAVE PEPEEKEO POINT <br /> NO VOTE- BILL 356 <br /> This is a petition opposing Bill 356, a rezoning ordinance which, if passed, would allow Continental <br /> Pacific, LLC to subdivide the old Pepeekeo Mill caznp plantation pazk into eleven residential lots <br /> with only a forty foot set back from the edge of the pali. There has been no provisions for an open <br /> space park or special accommodations for persons needing convenient access to the shoreline azea in <br /> the comprehensive plan to subdivide 1300 acres and four miles of shoreline. <br /> The plantation pazk at PEPEEKEO POINT is the last remnant of the historic Pepeekeo Mill <br /> plantation community. The Sugaz Industry is of significant historical and cultural importance to <br /> Hawaii and has contributed substantially to the life of the rural communities. The old camp was <br /> abandoned and razed in 1980, yet the old ball pazk and surrounding shoreline open space has <br /> remained an important recreation and scenic azea Pepeekeo Point has been used for fishing, <br /> picnicking, and ocean viewing activities continuously for generations. Public access to the former <br /> Pepeekeo Sugar Mill and old camp is recognized in the County of Hawaii Public Shoreline Access <br /> Inventory of 1979. The General Plan of 1989 designates the shoreline azea as "Qgetl: Pazks and <br /> <br /> historic sites." The pali is gently sloping and low, making this the easiest place to access the <br /> shoreline for a four mile shoreline azea within the newly created Pepeekeo Makai subdivision. We <br /> <br /> ask for favorable consideration from the Hawaii Coun Council and a NO VOTE- BILL 356. <br /> .r~, <br /> :.u:. <br /> _ <br /> PEPEEKEOrrMII.L /VII.LAGE CAMP USCG PEPEEKEO LIGHT STATION <br /> name ~~lGU rrlL+7L1 address ~tl~rn.~ .7-ZS'~ l~y~~tl<~ /~o.1y ema~~ <br /> r-n `~~v7-SE:s <br /> <br />
