PARKING, roads, sidewalks, business zoning, light industry zoning Security (cameras that can be seen online). Bus service that runs on time. More public transportation The old feel the construction and boardwalks, falling apart needs refacing Lack of sidewalks, drug dealers, no significant work. Lack of police; poor sidewalks and ped crossings; shabby look of downtown; lack of parking. Road planning at new development end of town is terrible. Hate that charm of Hawaiian town is being ruined by big chain stores from mainland (KFC, Burger King). Car congestion is worse and will keep getting that way unless we change how we deal with cars in town. Owner of parking lot behind Luquin's needs to be replaced by someone who has more of a community service focus. Lack of safe pedestrian spaces on main road through town. A few areas are OK, but then you're on the road with no shoulder or broken -up shoulder or ditch right there; some places ankle -deep in water when it's raining hard Need some real bus stop locations. Roads are the most needed item Some people I talk to are "deathly" afraid of going to Pahoa town at night for fear of being robbed or worse.

(Could increase business from older /disabled tourists and locals) Wheel chair ramps at appropriate intervals. One of the things that need improvement in Pahoa is stop lights at the main intersections that come onto and off of the bypass. It is a death trap or what most might call a meat grinder. Another thing that needs to be put into policy is the scrutiny of development. If the development that is occurring in Pahoa is for the health and well -being of the people and culturally sensitive to the Hawaiian people, it might be considered more lightly. As it stands right now, the people that have the most money make all the decisions. This is not Pono. The by -pass going into malama market is a very dangerous place when there is traffic and to many accidents have happened there. fdzn zlk /jm hgfiutoilv ufr The road in pahoa town is super narrow. pedestrians have kids and always have to worry about being
