HomeMy WebLinkAboutCOM 0227.019 1996-1998 This photo essay is designed ~to compare property values in Keauhou and `~~Pebble Beach. ' KIC finds no data that suggests that the requirement of curbs, gutters and sidewalks, coupled with road widths required by the County Subdivision code, adds value to the land or has any significant value to the. homeowner. Contrary, architects have advised that these infrastructure requirements, besides adding considerable cost to the project, result in less "community feeling. " In Keauhou, the Villas with minimum road widths, continues to be one of the most popular projects in Kona, and upscale residential areas such as Sunset and Puuloa have stronger "community feelings" than projects built ,under current County Standards. _ 2 2 7. ~ - s' ~~~ot~ PG r ~Ti'.7w A.. ~,_4 Pebble Beach Pebble Beach is a Destination Resort- Residential Community in California. It is Similar to Keauhou, or other destination Resort Communities in Hawaii, in that it has Lodges, Golf, Tennis, Shopping and Dining. Pebble Beach has 5,000 residents, 7 golf courses and several Lodges with occupancies running in the high 90s. Pebble Beach is not asub-standard community. What Pebble Beach does not have is curbs, gutters and sidewalks or oversized roads. The narrow roads that serve the residential areas add to a feeling of community. Pebble Beach does have restrictive covenants covering home design including exterior color. Trees cannot be cut down without approval.. And you cannot shoot the deer. - ><,;<<. ~~~~r~ j :r ,f „t ~ ~ # } .i f ~ ~ ~ _ ..fit ~ f r///i ~/frf/fill//~'d!, t z.;: !4 ~ ~ w ~ ~ g, M y, ? / f'~ f. f ~ ~ f~ l M ' ftAt t;6o5~ ryit ' ~ rf ~ f... f ~ ! ~;kc ~y f: f %f fff~. ~ f t ii i r ~ i..: :~::~~:%:f/ :~:~:~r~r ~'f .9??Fr'',f f " l~~,C~::;:;:.. ~ " fy.i,::.:::~::.;~:: , r/~ y~:: ~o::::: ~:~>ri% is r ~ .l ~ .ya.,y:.. t" 'lie .~~ll~win ~~-~s ~llust~°ate .r~. ~~lec~i~n yes in :pebble each Sc~le~ in ~~9~ ~h®w oe~ s®lcl with ~ ib y°ice ~ ~,~~~,~Q ~ncl ~ ecli~n .~iee ~~~,l~40 utilities are ill ~ve~he~~lo .l~esiclents ~~te ~~e~°zvhel~z~l~ nc~t t~ bum tie utilities. .~:nnu~l maintenance fees ~ 2~ °lie~°e are n~ curbs, ~utte~s sideways in ~esiential areas in pebble ~3ea~ {e~cet water can tr~l~ it, ~ ~ec~nclar .l2®ads in the ~esiential ~ubcli~isio~c ~ ~ ~ mile .~~ive , the main r®a tl~~~ub pebble each, is wi~'e ~ ~$i ' ? .
