Flooding, flooding, flooding.........as it is right now, Kipahele and Hoohoa streets both flood <br /> during moderate to heavy rains, which in turn, floods Mamalahoa. <br /> 2. Traffic, traffic, traffic.........as all of know Waimea has grown by leaps and bounds, and traffic in <br /> the morning from about 7:15 to 8:00 is usually moving at a very slow crawl from our subdivision, <br /> all the way into town. Again in the afternoon, from about 3:00 on it is worse heading out of town <br /> toward Honokaa. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO INFRASTRUCTURE OR PLAN TO DEAL WITH <br /> THE GROWTH OF OUR COMMUNITY WHERE TRAFFIC IS CONCERNED. <br /> Also, the proposed rezoning and subdivision of the Inaba property shows that access to the <br /> subdivision will be off of Kipahele Street. If the subdivision is approved by the Council as <br /> submitted now, there will be eight more lots, and figuring 2 to 3 cars per lot, 16 to 24 more <br /> cars/trucks will be using our road. Not to mention tractors and trucks associated with building and <br /> grading the lots, if the subdivision is allowed. <br /> Change is inevitable, and should be welcomed, however, change without planning and <br /> preparation and foresight usually becomes a nightmare. <br /> I understand that a video conference has been set up for November Sth. I will not be able to be <br /> there, but plan to speak with as many neighbors as I can, and urge them to speak now, before it's <br /> too late. <br /> Mahalo, <br /> Kathy A.
