<br /> PARKER RANCH
<br /> PBR HAWAII If this resolution is being stimulated in part by such concerns, then we
<br /> PONOHOLO RANCH, LIMITED
<br /> THE QUEEN EMMA FOUNDATION would ask the Council to consider both the stimuli and responses in a
<br /> THE QUEEN LILI'UOKALANI TRUST comprehensive manner. For example, at present, it is unclear how
<br /> R.M. TOWILL CORPORATION postponement of rezoning applications pending updating and implementing by
<br /> RIEHM OWENSBY PLANNERS ARCHITECHTS ordinance, the CDP for North and South Kona, will address existing
<br /> RYAN ASSOCIATES
<br /> SAM O. HIROTA, INC. infrastructure concerns without discussion of both short-term (to meet current
<br /> SURETY KOHALA CORPORATION needs) and long-term (to meet needs stimulated by future growth), commitment
<br /> TITLE GUARANTY ESCROW SERVICES, INC. to and funding of, identified infrastructure requirements. This delay is
<br /> TSA CORPORATION disconcerting especially when one considers that there does not appear to be a
<br /> WAIMEA WATER SERVICES, INC. mandated time frame specifying when "the North and South Kona Community
<br /> WASTE MANAGEMENT OF HAWAII
<br /> WATER RESOURCES INTERNATIONAL, INC. Development Plan is adopted by ordinance."
<br /> WES THOMAS ASSOCIATES
<br /> WEST HAWAII CONCRETE Whereas Resolution 381-06 does not provide a mechanism for dealing
<br /> WILSON OKAMOTO CORPORATION with the causes of existing traffic congestion, rezoning often does include
<br /> WIMBERLY ALLISON TONG & GOO mechanisms for providing roads, water systems, school and commercial sites,
<br /> and other infrastructure. Such opportunities may be lost to the community if
<br /> Jacqul L. Hoover consideration of rezoning applications is delayed by this resolution. For
<br /> President example, one way to deal with congestion is to encourage commercial and
<br /> shopping development in areas closer to existing residences to lessen commute
<br /> P.O. BOX 2159 time and distances, thereby eliminating some of the traffic on main roads, and
<br /> KAMUELA, HAWAII 96743 such opportunity may come through rezoning. Z's'LO
