Pagc l of 1 <br /> Murashige, Laura <br /> From: Karin Johnson [kjkona@hawaii.rr.com] <br /> Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2006 12:29 PM <br /> To: County Council <br /> Subject: KPC Villages on Planning Committee Agenda <br /> It has recently come to our attention that KPC Villages, LLC will present a revised proposal to the Planning <br /> Committee at their meeting on Tuesday, February 14, 2006 relative to the rezoning of land on Ali'i Drive across <br /> <br /> from Huggo's from Multiple Family Residential to Resort Hotel. <br /> Isn't it time that the County of Hawaii Planning Committee start planning' instead of continuing to allow more <br /> resort projects to proceed without consideration being given to upgrading our current infrastructure? Kailua-Kona <br /> does not need another resort unit on Ali'i Drive. What Kailua-Kona does need, however, is to have connecting <br /> roadways from Ali'i Drive to Queen Kaahumanu Highway, so that it doesn't take the driving public twenty minutes <br /> or more to get through town. Lord help us when, not if, there is a tsunami. <br /> We also need to have additional parking. If, for some reason, one needs or wants to shop in Kailua Village first <br /> they have to negotiate through the traffic on Kuakini Highway, and then attempt to locate a place to park <br /> which are nearly impossible unless you want to pay Joey Diamond's exhorbitant parking rates, or park in the lot <br /> at the King Kam Hotel and walk forever to get to your destination. <br /> It is my hope that the County of Hawaii Planning Department start planning and deny KPC Village LLC's proposal <br /> for any further development on Ali'i Drive until our most critical infrastructure has been improved. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Lawrence and Karin Johnson <br /> 72-4085 Alahe'e Place <br /> Kailua-Kona, HI 96740 <br /> Comm.
