to writing this letter sBaiaat the proposed subdivision ;t is tempting m just ssy'rw", however we are not oompkoely a~
ttew oooetrucxion of bones. ARier living oe Nsai Kdlw Dr. for arty dre pot 4 yew, wa have noeoed a sippitiaaat m-
croase in onto IIaffia Tt seems m us that Kailw View Estates wffi not phaa~ed fm providing tits only aooaa m all of the
~~ts pt+operties. We doa4 believe it is in the public's boR itltareat m ass a resideanitl stroet whh 52 driveways, and t0
imasaxions, is under a mik length, as the priatoy roam m even mar homes. The fimue wit! cptsinFy being even mote
homes m the s~aroamdiog vacant Isnds. '[Lis would be a good t®e m provide additional roads std utilities, before fnreha
damage am done m oar neighba9wod. If additional use is m be approved, we feel positive action eras! be takes m slow
down the speed of the sums on Mani Kaihrs Dr., et rho ol~ense of the developers. Witlr the approval of the oamty anti
the residents hear, saggrstions would include stop sigtts, traffic circles or soon speed humps err other ielem that would wodc
ao this grade. It would be helpful m have aarent iafotmadorr on the manbets asd cpeods of cars using this stroot.
In the last 15 years, h seems that insafficaeal ptvnrring and investment in roads has put us in a traffic jwn. in order mpre-
veffi abed situation from getting much wale it is time for sorao difficult docuioas to be msde. The first developer that
has m mart Crew standards, will titvu be happy, but saneonr will have m bo first. 7Le Grayest aea;idmts of West Hawaii
aro not at all happy either. A massive efi'ort will be roquved by all involved if we tae m avoid s tohl btealcdown of our
rtaruportation sysMm. The rofneocod projea will not by imelf be a largo lateen, bat every little wbdivision adds ap.
Thero are already S+ srdrdivi~orrs, with appmximabely son homes ahoady ttsiog 1 road as oak access m the highway.
if you are mmpted m downplay our coeroeaw we wotdd invite you to coera spend some time a[aog Iho shorddera of Nani
Kailw Dr.. You would be amazed ad the close calls acrd the eraziereaa that oeourp a4 a daily bane Evm the selrool bns
speeds daily and wo once stopped by an ofTicer. But it still goes on, Tf you fed compelled m approve this additional
subdivision, at tenet roquite some improvements from the developer. But wa hope you wi11 cane and nee that all dre pig~-
backing of subdivisions is just not workltg5 sad needs ro be stopped sad plamud bettor.
Todays eceons, will lead to romarow's coasequoaces! So, please think before you aU.
Thank you for your timc,
