Punaluu is the only significant ocean access in Kau that all age groups can use because of its location, <br /> roadway, and protected swimming and activity area. <br /> 2. The area is finite. Its' size makes it precious. As the population grows, it will become more precious. <br /> 3. The site has significant developmental potential as a multi-use recreation area including hiking, swimming, <br /> fishing, and beach going. Food, souvenirs, tour guide and other activity businesses could thrive. <br /> 4. Hundreds of thousand of tourists pass by this site every year. <br /> 5. Residential development in a coastal area such as Punaluu will be permanent. Properties will be deeded and <br /> not reversible. Those who live here far into the future will have to live with the consequences of this usage loss. <br /> 6. Plenty of planned residential site already exist in Kau. Discovery Harbour alone has over 500 vacant lots with <br /> county water, electricity, and paved roads. <br /> 7. Tourism is the only practical central industry to build towards in Kau. <br /> 8. It's because people from far away come to make fortunes changing placed like Punaluu that a committee such <br /> as yours must exist. <br /> Please make the decision for the future. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Paul Routon <br /> P.O.
