TMK(3)3-"05:015 } CPR with (3)3-6-005:014, This <br /> valley including beach and stream Could be of great benefit to the community as an <br /> invaluable educational and cultural resource. We hope to steward this parcel alongside <br /> Laupahoehoe Train Museum and inviting others to join including local fishing and <br /> educational organizations as available. <br /> We look forward to further discussions of how this possibility might develop with PONC <br /> and the broader community so that this parcel could serve as a living laboratory for our <br /> area youth, and have submitted a draft management plan in the PONC application. With <br /> the involvement of Hui Kako'o o Laupahoehoe. this land can transition from a pnvate lot <br /> to an educational resource where students learn about watershed health, native <br /> species, and responsible land stewardship. <br /> Protecting the stream and beach from privatization is critical to the long-term health of <br /> our coastline and community. In conclusion, we support this effort to identify& seek <br /> funding for the Purchase of this Property through the PONC process and look forward to <br /> the opportunity to steward this parcel for the greater good. <br /> Sincerely. <br /> aw� C".1 <br /> Rachel Condor.
