Aft nrItiVe Sttitiy POLICY DECISIONS FUNDING DECISIONS We have to remember... There are various opinions and perspectives on what recovery should include, where it should happen, what should be prioritized, etc. —just like the story of the 6 blind folded people and the elephant— we need to make sure we are looking at both the WHOLE picture and the specific parts. It's a kikoU thing! Amenities and Services I N T E N T 91% agree — 169 4 Basic amenities and services 5% neutral — 9 4 Within village and town centers o 4 Provide jobs and economic opportunities 4/o disagree — 8 EMAMPM retail, groceries, child care, dining, entertainment, parks, education and economic opportunity Common sense, brah. Do it within existing communities and you have some goodness. So people travel shorter distances for employment, childcare, and shopping. Less travel time and cost for residents. Better jobs closer to home. Village Town Centers / Residential & Economic Development 0 Ka hale a ku, o ke kanaka a noho. Where a house stands, there man dwells. Not all small rural communities must have amenities, services, and economic opportunities. These are already available within a reasonable distance. I do not support further development in my community. 14 Housing Option INTENT 4 Rural and urban affordable housing choices 4 Diversity of housing types and locations 72% agree —131 4 address the range of affordability needs 15% neutral — 27 E M n m F l E s 13% disagree — 24 • Improve existing, increase new housing stock • Increase affordability • infrastructure support and access to services Upuna housing is needed and important. It's not government's job to provide housing for everybody who wants housing. I believe in the freedom to Village Town Centers / Residential & Economic Development 0 Ka hale a ku, o ke kanaka a noho. Where a house stands, there man dwells. choose where you want to live. There should be choices. Housing is not a "one -size -fits -all" subject. Agree, however, where? There are more than enough housing lots in the Puna District already. We want the improvements in our Nip -- ,_-, .IIIIIIIII�Ir current areas. local Economy INTENT 4 Number and diversity of income sources 4 Living wage 4 Jobs and entrepreneurial opportunities 4 Complement the ecology, culture and evolving demographics 84% agree —151 9% neutral —17 Village Town Centers / Residential & Economic Development 7% disagree —13 0 Ka hale a ku, o ke kanaka a noho. Where a house stands, there man dwells. EMAMPLES • "Green" sectors • Visitor industry that is pono • Small business and entrepreneurial development We absolutely need to bring back tourists. I think there is too much emphasis on the visitor industry —and the island needs a more diverse economy to be resilient. ft -im County and State governments impede job creation with too many barriers. Without adequate support and action of our elected officials nothing happens. Hawaii County needs sustainable industries that will provide good paying jobs for its residents. We need to stop the brain drain from our island. Agriculture is the industry that keeps East Hawaii stable. TMUSPOrtati&-L I N T E N T 4 Complete roadway connectivity 4 Safe, convenient, accessible, and affordable transportation system. EXAMPLES • Road connectivity points for local traffic, emergency and evacuation routes • Multi -modal transportation system • Roadway alternatives le Public transportation is an absolute must, especially of a kind that is affordable and reliable. All modes of transport is needed. L wl Infrastructure 0 ke kahua mamua, mahope ke kukulu The site first, and then the building / Learn all you can, then practice 92% agree —170 2% neutral — 4 6% disagree —11 Connectivity is our #1 issue. I worry about the accessibility of my house, in the event of an emergency. Establish emergency access, yes. However we shouldn't be investing in new paved roadways in lava prone areas. utilities INTENT 4 Restore, improve and expand 4 Adequate and affordable utilities EXAMPLES Access to phone and internet services Potable (drinking) water and wastewater systems Green energy infrastructure Potable water is critical especially because of diseases such as leptospirosis and rat lung worm. I live on catchment and trust my water source because I control its cleanliness. 6� . .L _L==* & M Infrastructure 0 ke kahua mamua, mahope ke kukulu The site first, and then the building / Learn all you can, then practice 88% agree —162 9% neutral —16 3% disagree — 6 Better cell phone service and internet hotspots are needed for safety, business and convenience. It is a sad situation when houses are given building permits without internet infrastructure. The county and state need to partner together to see that is a priority for housing. MC.0 RN �,•� r 'r K16k: L1 O"r N Xk� Gathering Spaces INTENT 4 New and improve existing built and natural community gathering spaces 4 Restore and improve educational facilities 4 Multifunctional community hubs EXAMPLES • Pohoiki • Prioritize Kua O Ka La facilities Infrastructure 0 ke kahua mamua, mahope ke kukulu The site first, and then the building / Learn all you can, then practice • Multifunctional community and resilience hubs W or All communities need a This is needed, but keep the place to gather. religious and spiritual areas separate from community areas. The hub was a great example. Community hubs — schools, parks, and senior centers are important. • 76% agree —139 • 16% neutral — 30 • 8% disagree —15 Kua O Ka La PCS is still trying to find permanent locations. The school is based on Hawaiian values and culture. They hosted many events to the health of the lower Puna community. We need to get Pohoiki up and running again. Help renovate and subsidize the spaces that already exist. Historical and Cultural Resources 4 Historical, cultural, and scenic resources 4 Shoreline public access 4 Agricultural land and open space preservation EXAMPLES • Increase public access sites • Restore native habitat • Preserve/restore significant historic and cultural sites These things represent important cultural values and the Hawaiian practice of sharing aloha for our `aina. R4 k L R Y'LL ii Shoreline access is important, however we should also respect the rights of individuals who own the land and maintain it. ift Natural & Cultural Resource Management He ali`i ka `aina, he kaua ke kanaka The land is the chief, man is the servant. Referring to man having to take care of the land in order for man to survive. 91% agree —168 8% neutral —15 1% disagree — 2 We lost our safe places to access the ocean. Fishermen are still waiting for boat ramp. Gathering rights for native Hawaiians must be honored in these spaces. Native Ecosystems INTENT 4 Restoration of native ecosystems and habitats 4 Significant natural and cultural features 4 Ecologically sensitive lands mauka to makai EMAMPLEs • Protect/preserve native forests and geological features • action against invasive species • Pylic and private collaboration on restoration projects t_ l� Protect, preserve and Primary focus should be on restore is the best thing we can do in order for our natural native ecosystem to thrive. Lot of area was destroyed so we have to take care of what we have left. J s � r invasives. Provide additional and committed annual funding to prevent the further degradation of these open areas by slowly encroaching invasive plants. FI- s ,J., ., W Natural & Cultural Resource Management He ali`i ka `aina, he kaua ke kanaka The land is the chief, man is the servant. Referring to man having to take care of the land in order for man to survive. 88% agree —163 9% neutral —16 3% disagree — 5 Yes, but need to balance w/ housing and economic growth needs. The County shouldn't be wasting its small budget on things such as this. There are private organizations and individuals who do this. Physical and Mental Health INTENT 4 Access to quality health services 4 Options and facilities that promote physical activity and healthy lifestyle 4 Keiki to kupuna EXAMPLES Spectrum of facilities, services and programs Sensitive to diversity of cultures, beliefs, and needs Most especially we need dialysis in Puna. We need dentists. So many people are dealing with lingering effects of the trauma and post -eruption issues that having counselors available would be helpful. No one cares this whole place has PTSD. Health and Wellbeing Loa`a ke ola i Halau-a-ola Life is obtained in the house of life. Used when one is returned to safety, happiness, or well-being. 88% agree —162 9% neutral —17 3% disagree — 5 The distance to a hospital from lower Puna is well over an hour. We don't have enough medical facilities compared to population. -1ANEW- Puna 1 Community Medical Center was created with these services in mind. Li�� Social Health and Safety INTENT 4 Access to quality social services 4 Increase police, fire, and emergency personnel EMAMPM • Wrap around social services • Community based, culturally relevant, individualized, family centered • Restore and harden critical and emergency facilities There are many people in need of social services in Puna, and if their needs are unmet, the consequences are felt by the entire community. Get the services to where the people live. Health and Wellbeing Loa`a ke ola i Halau-a-ola Life is obtained in the house of life. Used when one is returned to safety, happiness, or well-being. • 83% agree —154 • 14% neutral — 26 • 3% disagree — 5 Emergency services and police responsiveness are key to a healthy community. We have a VERY low number of police for the Puna district. They do the best they can. We are in an emergency desert. Family Economic Health Increase the percentage of residents that are economically self-sufficient EXAMPLES • Community-based food systems • Family Financial Empowerment Services • Diversified options to meet basic needs Idw I How can government do this? Of course all would be great if can ... Lot's of jobs in Hawaii don't pay enough for people to be able to afford to live in Hawaii. It's a great idea to improve the economy in a sustainable, locally relevant way. Health and Wellbeing Loa`a ke ola i Halau-a-ola Life is obtained in the house of life. Used when one is returned to safety, happiness, or well-being. 87% agree —158 11% neutral — 20 2% disagree — 3 Local food production is another wave that is a must for future social and personal health. It is ridiculous that an area with the agricultural potential of Puna depends so much upon food from elsewhere. We must expand community- based food systems and begin this in the schools. `Aina based educational initiatives/careers must be supported. Proposed Motion The Puna CDP Action Committee recommends the intent of the recovery objectives as presented by the County of Hawaii Recovery Team and revised by the PCDP Action Committee to be the priority recovery objectives for the Kilauea Eruption Recovery planning process,, which will advance the priority recovery goals confirmed by the Action Committee at the May 21, 2019 PCDP Action Committee meeting. �uFACT1flN 1 r�� .1 .� E surveys available through August 30! ;*T https:1/recovery.hawaiicounty.gov/connect/impact-status-survey-suite) Haw Towmm AWtwd HTA Heather L9 kh 1 �R Aft 44 4F 141 p
