Respectfully, r August 2, 2001 To: Members of the County Planning Commission Chris Yuen, Planning Director Re: Redesignate the North Kohala Coastline to Conservation and Open Bear Ladies and Gentlemen, Many North Kohala residents have been trying for many, many years to protect the North Kohala coastline thru legislation.. This is evidenced by the passage of S.C.R. No.179 H.D.1 passed by both houses in 1988, ding the retention of view and open space makai of the Kawaihae to Hawi road, and a petition signed by 5,650 people - 1030 of them residents of Kohala. Most recently S.C.R. No. 146 S.D.1, passed both houses on April 12, 2UU1 -urging the retention and preservation of open space and view planes, historic sites and traditional access along the coastline of the North Kohala District, Hawaii. Testimony for its passage was given by North Kohala community groups and long established North Kohala Merchants. Previous to S.C.R.No. 146, the Kohala community petition, which was signed by 636 people in a period of 16 days -urging the County of Hawaii to recognize, preserve and protect historical, traditional, and sacred sites and places of North Kohala -from Kawaihae to Pololu Valley and beyond; was submitted to the County on October 30, 2000 and resubmitted again on March 28, 2001. We ask al! of you to take and review the materials, maps and sites that we submitted on July 6th, to give all of you a better understanding of how important the North Kohala coastline is to all of us, not just the people of North Kohala. We sincerely ask all of you to preserve the coastline for future generations and redesignate the North Kohala coastline to conservation and open.

We have included some maps of the North Kohala coastline showing the locations of hundreds of ancient pre-contact sites. AIso included are the actual drawings showing just the ancient sites between Honoipu Landing and Kapa'a Beach Park. All of the Ali'i Nui, including AIapai, Kalaniopu'u and Kamehameha the Great, used the North Kohala Coastline to provision and train their warriors before leaving for other islands in the hawaiian chain. A thousand or more canoes came to the North Kohala Coast during these ancient periods from Ka'u and Kona, Puna and Hamakua; occupying the North Kohala leeward coast all the way around to Kauhola Point on the North Kohala windward coast. Provision and Warriors came from the entire IvTorth Kohala coast, including Pololu, Honokane and Awini Valleys. The North Kohala Coastline is historically and culturally very important to West Hawaii, the County and the State of Hawaii. We sincerely hope that the County Planning Commission and Chris Yuen will redesignate the North Kohala Coastline to Conservation and Opeq so present and future generations of residents and visitors, will be able to enjoy the magnificent, natural and open view planes that the North Kohala Coastline provide today. Sincerely, Concerned Residents of North Kohala Testimony on Proposed Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 146 Page 1 of 3 Kohala Community Groups, Businesses, Citizens TO: SENATE COI~~IITTEE ON WATER, LAND, ENERGY AND ENVIRONME?v'T, THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE TWENTY-FIRST LEGISLATURE OF HAWAII RE: Proposed SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION No. 14b URGLNG THE RETENTION AND PRESERVATION OF OPEN SPACE AND VIEW PLANES, HISTORIC SITES, AND TRADITION.~I. ACCESS ALONG THE COASTLINE OF THE NORTH KOHALA DISTRICT, HAWAII FROM: Hawaiian Civic Club, Kohala Filipina Community Association, Kohala Puerto Rican Club, Kohala Historic and Cultural Preservation Group, Arakai Store, H. Naito Store, K. Takata Store, and Union Market DATE: APRIL 10, X001 We regret that we are unable to leave our jobs in order to come to testify in person at this Senate committee hearing. We appreciate the opportunity to express our concerns and our support at this hearing. We strongly urge you to pass the proposed Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 14b. We are submitting the following written testimony on proposed Senate Concurrent Resolution N. 146 to show our strong and continuing support to preserve the historic, rural, scenic and agricultural character and traditional access of the North Kohala coastline, from Kawaihae to Pololu Valley and beyond to Waipio Valley. We are very concerned about the future land use in Kohala and want to be sure that the Legislature hears the voice of our community. We want the Legislature to help us protect out valuable agricultural land and lifestyle, recognize and protect our historic resources and sites, preserve our traditional access to our coastline and mountains, and protect Kohala from encroaching and inappropriate development. We have been actively urging Iviayor Kim, the County Council, the Hawaii Planning Department, the Na Ala Hele and BLNR, to preserve the Kohala coastline and mountains from subdivision and other development. However development continues to take place makai of the Kawaihae-Mahukona-Hawi Road, despite the passage of Senate Concurrent Resolution N. 179 in 1988, which urged the State and County governments to work together to discourage subdivision and building development in this area; and despite the fact that in 1989 the Hawaii County Council itself passed a resolution calling for preservation of the North Kohala i Testimony on Proposed Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 146 Page 2 of 3 Kohala Community Groups, Businesses, Citizens coastline, yet continues to approve subdivision and building development in this area. We see luxury homes being built maka.i of the Kawaihae-Mahukona-Rawl Road just north of Kawaihae. We see coastal and mountain areas that have been accessible for years being fenced and access denied by the use of locked gates. We see historic features being destroyed by grading and bulldozing (often without permits). We want this to stop now. Our community collected over 600 signatures of local Kohala residents urging the Hawaii County Planning Department to include specific language in the General Plan Update and to initiate specific measures that will recognize, preserve and protect the historical, traditional and sacred sites and places of Kohala, which extend from Kawaihae to Pololu Valley and beyond to Waipio Valley. Weak and vague policies are not enough.. Being put off as the lowest priority is not enough given the current and rising pressure for additional development. ~We sincerely request the support of the Senate, the House, the State of Hawaii, and the County of Hawaii to follow through on the policies and commitments that have been made, and to work collaboratively with each other and with us in the . community, to preserve this beautiful coastline from unnecessary and inappropriate development, and to prevent us from losing forever the rich, unique natural and historic resource it is. Some areas of immediate concern that will be protected by Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 146 are: 1) Keawa'nui Bay and Keawe'ula Bay in the Kehena 2~ ahupua'a (cluster of historic encosures and heiau where the ali'i used to wait prior to disembarking for journeys to Tahiti and beyond) 2) Kaiholena ahupua'a (which has more historic sites than Lapakahi State Park}, 3) Hapu'u Bay to Kapanaia Bay (Hale O Kaili Heiau built for Kamehameha the Great's personal war god, Kuka'ilimoku; and the oldest heiau on the coast, Kapalama Heiau, are located in this area) 4) Kapanaia Bay to Keokea Bay (location of very ancient graves and Kuapalaha'a Heiau) We are expressing the concerns of several community groups, longtime established businesses in Kohala, and several hundred residents of Kohala. We believe that other groups and people in our community share like concerns, but we did not have enough time to contact all of them prior to this hearing.

We urge the County Council to implement and put into effect a moratorium to stop any and all subdividing and/or building developments on the North Kohala coastline until the following resolutions and citizen petitions have been addressed: [1 ] S.C.R. No. 179, H.®.1, 14th Legislature, 1988. [2). Petition signed by 5,650 citizens to halt development on the North Kohala coastline until "a thorough study can be done." 1988. [3] Planning Committee of the County Council, Resolution 6/14/89. [4] Kohala Community petition submitted 10/30/00 and resubmitted 3/16/01. In a period of 16 days, 636 citizens signed this petition to protect the North Kohala coastline. [5] S.C.R. No. 146, S.D. 1, the most recent Resolution passed. [6] Testimony provided by the D.L.N.R. Backing S.C.R. No. 146. All of the above adds up to a consensus mandating the Hawaii County Council to implement and put into effect a moratorium to stop subdividing and building developments on the North Kohala Coastline. This will allow the appropriate state, county and North Kohala community groups to meet and develop a comprehensive plan to protect and preserve the North Kohala coastline from inappropriate developments. We are aware of and support K.A.K.0.0.'s letter urging a like moratorium. Them is no other coastline in the State of Hawaii like the North Kohala coastline. Nowhere else is there a comparable continuous undeveloped stretch of coastland containing so large a diversity of sacred sites and fishing areas. This area is vital to preserving the life style of our local community. It is also essential to the preservation of Hawaiian culture and tradition. At least 1 1 subdivisions are pending on the North Kohala coastline. We need the County Council to expedite a moratorium without delay, even a temporary moratorium. If this is not done soon, "the North Kohala coastline will be lost forever!" There will be no tomorrows if the Hawaii County Council does not act now!
