Subject: Res. 83-21: KE ALA KAKOU (HOLUALOA COMMUNITY FOREST):TMK 76-004-003 Land
Area (Acreage): 2.488 acres
Please nominate the above mentioned property for County acquisition for Public Access, Open
Space. By doing so the land would assist in
mitigating FEMA flood hazard, protecting Holualoa Village from immediate flood damage &
connecting Civic Spaces (IMIN Center & Holualoa Elementary School) to strengthen the
community. It would nourish the existing cultural practices in Holualoa and connect educational
spaces. With the purchase the community would become more disaster prepared to host
displaced Kailua-Kona and South Kona residents in case of tsunami and/or Mauna Loa eruption or
floods.
Mahalo for your consideration,
