The average price for a house on the Big Island is around $400,000, Kauai is about <br />$550,000, Maui $660,000, and O'ahu at $800,000. My point is that the Big Island <br />is the cheapest island to live on and if we don't get Waikapuna the Big Island will <br />jump up in price. <br />If we lose the land fund, we won't have money to buy land, and if we don't have <br />enough land to plant and grow many species of plants as naupaka, alahe'e, wiliwili <br />and more. Along with plant problems, people could have trouble earning money. <br />For example, Kumu James Akau, Uncle Duane, Clarissa Pua and Uncle Kaui <br />Felder work at Na Mamo o Kawa, and if Kawa gets sold because there is no money <br />to keep it going, all of the people above will have to find another job. I hope that <br />in the future I will always be able to go back to Kawa and see it the way it is today. <br />Sincerely, <br />J.P. <br />
