From: J B <br /> To: W PCtesti mono <br /> Subject: Punalu'u development. <br /> Date: Thursday,March 7,2024 6:31:49 AM <br /> To whom it may concern, <br /> My name is John Lomp.I have been a resident of the big island since 2019.In regards to plans entertaining a resort/ <br /> development at Punalu'u,I am AGAINST.Wild open spaces like Punalu'u and Kau'are precisely what make the <br /> big island the big island.Changing that,especially to alter the landscape explicitly to accommodate more tourists is <br /> not progress.It's not an improvement.Creating more affordable housing, sustainable development and <br /> infrastructure,and intentionally serving the existing residents of the big island.Fostering community and <br /> opportunity,that would be a step worth taking.If that is not feasible,leave it alone.If you cannot or will not serve <br /> the community first.At least don't mess it up and make it worse for those that live here. <br /> Thank you for your consideration. <br /> Regards, <br /> JL <br />
