Over the past three public votes 63% of voters have voted for the 2% Land Fund <br />and are most likely still for it. Having more wild untouched lands like Kawa will <br />not just be good for us but for the tourist who come here so they can see the real <br />Hawaii. Compared to the rest of the Hawaiian islands Hawaii has the most wild, <br />undeveloped land and housing is more affordable because there aren't as many <br />hotels that jack up the prices of living here. Kawa is not just a place to work, it is <br />also a wonderful place to relax. There is a nice beach that people can swim or surf <br />at, but if you want to escape the big crashing waves you can go to the fish pond <br />nearby. And if you continue to buy more land like this there could be places for <br />people to visit and enjoy. <br />There are a lot of native plants at Kawa some of which are endangered and can <br />be helped to recover with our and any conservatories help. We can also help <br />animals at Kawa. And if you continue with the 2% Land Fund conservatories can <br />help other plants and animals at other places. If you stop funding some plants and <br />animals won't get help. Kawa has lots of plants that ancient Hawaiians used for <br />their canoes like milo and alahe'e and now these plants are endangered, but we are <br />trying to help them at Kawa, but if you stop the land fund some places with those <br />plants will get bulldozed over and will not get saved. <br />In the future I hope to see more land like Kawa because of the 2% Land Fund. <br />And if you continue with it that will happen, but if not there will be more hotels, <br />housing prices will rise, and maybe some endangered plants will not get saved. If <br />you stop the funding tourists will not see the true Hawaii, but if you continue <br />Hawaii will be a better place for all. <br />Mahalo, <br />Travis Wood <br />
