I have known John Metzler, <br />the owner of this property, for many years. I am familiar with the quality projects he has <br />built over his 50+ years of doing business here. I can safely say that this subdivision will <br />be well planned, beautifully designed, completed on time and will have the best interests <br />of the community as its ultimate purpose. <br />We are cognizant of the challenges our young people are currently faced with and a <br />serious shortage of housing options is at the top of the list. We are confident that most <br />would like to have the ability to contribute to the community by providing agricultural <br />products at the many wholesale and retail outlets in the area. <br />This suggests that rather than pastureland, which seems to be the default usage, this <br />project has been designed to be affordable enough for our young families. It will also <br />offer enough space for a range of intensive agricultural activities. The existing homes <br />there already compliment Waimea's upcountry charm. We are assured that any new <br />homes there will also be designed and built to honor this traditional style. <br />My warmest aloha, <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />
