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