and commercial development.This speculation project has failed to demonstrate the need for <br /> additional retail space in Waimea with many existing vacant retail properties in Waimea. <br /> Waimea is Hawai'i Island's Breadbasket. The proposed lands,if developed,would forever erase <br /> these prime agricultural lands from Waimea's inventory.There is nothing that can replace it and <br /> the result would be to shackle our residents more deeply to imports and ever higher prices. <br /> The development is NOT consistent with the South Kohala CDP (2008). This proposed project <br /> fails to meet the guidelines and policies set forth for the Waimea Town as stipulated in the <br /> South Kohala CDP. Instead,this project would remove prime agricultural lands and push <br /> unsightly commercial development further east of the Waimea Town center. <br /> PLEASE follow the plans that are already in place for Waimea. They provide a studied, <br /> cautionary,long-term view of development.I <br /> In conclusion,I ask that this Commission consider all testimony previously submitted on this <br /> proposal not in support of this proposed project. <br /> Mee/Tkka mahalo iho no, <br /> V T r r <br /> 1'�-GLS <br /> Maulili W.
