The members <br /> of the Action Committee of the Puna Community Development Plan invite you to attend our meetings <br /> which are held at the Kea'au Community Center on the second Tuesday of each month at 3:00 pm. <br /> The Action Committee's primary mandate is to work with members of the Puna community to <br /> implement the recommended actions in the Plan. Some of the projects we have worked on this past <br /> year have been: <br /> • Pahoa Village Design Guidelines, Pahoa Regional Town Center Plan <br /> • Mountain View Village Long Range Plan <br /> • Volcano Long Range Plan <br /> • Land acquisition through P.O.N.C. to create an alternate access to Wai'opae <br /> • Collaborate with the Department of Mass Transit to establish Hub and Spoke public bus routes <br /> and airport routes <br /> • Designate connecting roadways in Puna subdivisions <br /> • Second Annual Puna Regional Emergency Preparedness Fair <br /> • Support the Puna Community Medical Center <br /> • Support the Kapono Community Development Plan <br /> • Support of the designation of Red Road (Hwy 137) as a National Scenic Byway <br /> • Consultation with the Planning Department on several project permit proposals that had the <br /> potential for negative impact on the mandates of the Puna Community Development Plan <br /> As Hawaii's fastest growing area, Puna's infrastructure already presented challenges. With the current <br /> lava flow and changes to our weather patterns, we are facing unprecedented changes and demands. It <br /> is essential that we come together to serve our community and we look forward to collaborating with <br /> you. <br /> Hawai`i County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br />
