This road is steep <br /> and narrow with minimal places to pull over for disabled vehicles. The Kukuihalele <br /> Community Association has received complaints from local residents expressing <br /> concern that allowing access to AWD vehicles on the access road and in the Valley <br /> creates a danger to other vehicles. <br /> Three of the Association's officers participate on the committee to create a Waipio <br /> ranger position. A primary long term objective of this committee is to limit the amount <br /> of vehicular traffic into the valley by providing information to tourists and residents <br /> from other parts of our island. Driving into the valley with vehicles not suitable for the <br /> access road and valley floor is contrary to committee's efforts. <br /> <br /> Please support the requested action of Dr, Holschuh, Dominic Yagong, and the <br /> residents of Kukuihaele. Vote yes on Bill 357. <br /> <br /> Mahalo for your consideration. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Kuulei Badua <br /> President, Kukuihaele Community Association <br /> 7C <br /> W rFz <br /> •r a O <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> CPI <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 1 Comm.
