DeVera, Ashley <br /> From: Uala Lenta < <br /> Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2024 8:50 PM <br /> To: hawaiiplan@hawaiicounty.gov; Planning General Plan <br /> Subject: Revise Hawaii general plan testimony here <br /> Attachments: Big Island General Plan 2045 Testimony .pdf <br /> Aloha Planning Department, <br /> The final draft of the Big Island general plan does not support the future of Big Island, nor does it <br /> clearly define what you want to do. It should be revised or thrown-out and redone. <br /> The current general plan looks like it will further regulate and fine the public, limit travel, cluster <br /> people into dense housing and more. It has no conclusive plan to help communities prosper. <br /> The main structure of the plan is "Sustainability" when it should be "Innovation". We want to move <br /> toward thriving communities, environmental support and economic alternatives that support farmers <br /> and homeowners and not put people in boxes while over-regulating them. <br /> The general plan you have is modeled throughout the United States/Mainland with the exact same <br /> words like: cluster, stakeholder, buffer zones, change codes, amend and more! <br /> How is it possible that it was created by the Big Island Planning Department when so many other <br /> General Plans around the country have the same language? <br /> Please review the attached PDF and revise the general plan accordingly. <br /> Much Mahalo <br /> Uala Lenta <br /> https://www.standtogetherhawaii.com/_files/ugd/86fc0c_b34739e4c99c461685de4c0207bf286e.pdf <br />
