K0'~,4 GOl)?dTY COUNCIL <br /> <br /> May 24, 2005 <br /> ZfO~ 27 Fil U~ U <br /> <br /> Hawaii County Council <br /> Committee on Planning <br /> Hawaii County Building <br /> 25 Aupuni Street <br /> Hilo, HI 96720 <br /> Attn: Pete Hoffmann / Co-Chair <br /> K.Angel Pilago / Co-Chair <br /> RE: Suffolk / Puaa Rezoning <br /> Bills 29 thru 32 <br /> The following are a list of reasons to approve the Suffolk/Puaa Rezoning project: <br /> 1. There is a serious need for affordable rental housing in Kailua-Kona. Lack of <br /> inventory is driving an increase in prices. A lot of professionals in our market <br /> place cannot afford to purchase a home so, to have affordable rental housing will <br /> help to facilitate these specific needs. <br /> 2. Adding a corridor connection Mauka to Makai from Queen K. to Kuakini Hwy <br /> with the addition of traffic lights at the intersections would alleviate a lot of the <br /> current traffic problems in this area. <br /> 3. Building another neighborhood shopping area located conveniently between <br /> Keahou and Kailua-Kona, would help to eliminate driving time on the highways. <br /> Our community thrives off of jobs that help to support our local economy. <br /> Constructing a neighborhood shopping area will offer more job opportunities and <br /> help support existing businesses. <br /> I support the Suffolk/Puaa Rezoning and hope that it will be passed! <br /> Mahalo, <br /> Print name:l/~INTDN ~I't-~t1~~Signature:- WVt~~ <br /> Address: ~ 7 5 lp I D ~ I~ K u IR l tC KX l ~ ~ " K-y N ~ ~ 1 a(~` 7~}~ <br /> <br />
