2014-73 Community Associations Responses

Home

Communication No. 2014-73 Leilani Community Association Thank you for starting to look into this. The district may well change as events unfold and the more prepared we can be the better off we are. The Leilani Community Association can and will do many things to help ourselves and others in Puna. Frankly, some of the infrastructure you are looking for will not be available. For instance with no county water or sewer available we would find it difficult to support most types of commerce. (The County, or maybe the State,has property and a couple of buildings with County water on Pohoiki Road just below Leilani. It's been abandoned but could probably be brought into useful condition. It was part of the old geothermal site.) Currently our Board of Directors has authorized the use of the Leilani Community property by both government and relief agencies, coordinated by Civil Defense, up to a time frame and density to be determined.Any other use, including other service groups or NGO use,will be considered on a case by case basis. Use of private property in the subdivision remains under the terms of the Leilani CC&Rs. Jay Bondesen Leilani Community Association Questions: 1. How much acreage does your community cover? 2. What is the current zoning of your lots? Ag 3. What is the current infrastructure of your community center? Office and equipment storage building, paved parking, 4,000 gallon catchment water, 20,000 + sq. ft. pavilion. 4. How big is the lot in which your community center is on? Roughly eight acres 5. What commercial endeavors are you willing to temporarily house? We have monthly sales in the pavilion. That could possibly be expanded. 6. Are there any restrictions to what you might be able to temporarily house? Yes. We are generating a document covering things such as insurance, hours of operation and others. So far this is to accommodate non- commercial relief and governmental uses. 7. Do you have water access? If so, what type of access? Also, do you have a water purification system for drinking water? Catchment.
