WIWI <br /> Puma <br /> CERTIFIED NURSERY <br /> .. . ? -' RA ' Ell <br /> April 2, 2026 <br /> Hawai'i County Planning Department <br /> 101 Pauahi Street, #3 <br /> Hilo, Hawai'i 96720 <br /> Re: Subdivision Variance Application PL-SVAR-2026-000080 ; TM (3)1-7-023 :016 <br /> Dear Friends, <br /> I am writing this letter regarding the application above, at this time I am not in favor of this <br /> variance for the following reasons: <br /> 1. Some history, former Mayor Stephen Yamashiro and I worked together to pave the <br /> existing road. <br /> 2. The road was lightly paved to help homeowners enter and depart from at that time a <br /> dirt and very rough road. <br /> 3. The existing pavement is roughly 10'wide and would not support additional traffic <br /> and wear and tear. <br /> 4. The utility poles are located very close to edge of road and would present additional <br /> damages with increased traffic. <br /> 5. The existing water line, as is known runs underground in the middle of the road, this <br /> would be difficult to service. <br /> 6. At the entrance to the existing road, there is a deep ravine which would present a <br /> problem if guard rails are not installed. <br /> If any additional information is needed, please feel free to contact me or I can also come to <br /> your office. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> PCN INC. dba PUNA CERTIFIED NURSERY <br /> Malcolm R.
