From: Jrothmund <br /> To: WPCtestimonv <br /> Subject: Re.Development Proposal in Punalu'u <br /> Date: Sunday,March 3,2024 4:21:41 PM <br /> March 3, 2024 <br /> To whom it may concern: <br /> My name is Jane Rothmund. I am a Canadian who has been coming to the Punalu'u <br /> area to vacation for years. In Canada I live in a rural area for the peace and natural <br /> beauty. When I come to the Big Island I also look for an area of peace and natural <br /> beauty. Punalu'u is such a place. A large development in Punalu'u would change <br /> the nature of the area immensely, and I for one, would NOT be in favour of this. <br /> There are enough condos, shops, restaurants, and other tourist attractions on the <br /> Kona/Waikoloa side of the island. The south coast must be kept rural so that <br /> Hawaiians have a natural, affordable place to live and visitors have an alternative to <br /> the crowds and large developments. This area of the Big Island is a treasure that <br /> must be preserved. <br /> Thank you for reading my letter in support of keeping Punalu'u natural, beautiful, <br /> and rural. <br /> Jane Rothmund <br /> 604-619-9003 <br />
