April 2o, 2004 %~u4 FlPFi 22 Pfd ~I <br /> County of Hawaii County Council C. <br /> Hilo, Hawaii COUw__ <br /> RE: BILL #178, REZONING REQUEST FROM CLIFTO'S KONA COAST LLC FROM A <br /> MG3A ZONING TO A PROJECT DISTRICT ZONING. <br /> To the Honorable Chairman James Arakaki and the County of Hawaii County Council, <br /> We are writing to you today concerning Bill #178. This is the rezoning request of Clifto's Kona <br /> Coast LLC to change their existing zoning of MG3a to a Project District on their 83 acre <br /> highway parcel which is located on the South side of the Natural Energy Lab of Hawaii. We <br /> understand this is on your County Council agenda for Apri121, 2004. <br /> As our elected representatives, we strongly urge your approval to this zoning change for <br /> numerous reasons that are extremely beneficial to our community, you, your families and most <br /> importantly your constituents. <br /> We feel that Kona, North Kona and South Kohala aze in desperate need of alternative choices for <br /> housing, goods and services. We all are aware of the current, continuing and increasing traffic <br /> problems in West Hawaii and feel that if given a viable alternative, we will gratefully embrace it <br /> and use it. The concept of providing substantial goods and services six miles North of Kona is <br /> most appealing and extremely logical. The equitable distribution of goods and services will <br /> greatly enhance our lives. There are literally thousands of people who live in this azea and have <br /> no choice but to drive into Kona for their needs. No other choices at all! Just think of the <br /> thousands of cars that will no longer drive into Kona and impact the only two roadways. The <br /> impact this project would have on the traffic issues and quality of life for us is immeasurable. <br /> Everybody wins! We also support Clifto's Kona Coast LLC's offer to provide 20% of his multi- <br /> family units to be deemed `affordable housing' which is double the requirement. This will <br /> greatly assist the many needy families with their battle in the ever increasing cost of living in <br /> Hawaii. <br /> Again, we need your help to improve our lives and the lives of the people of Hawaii whom you <br /> have been elected to protect and represent. With all the residential projects totaling thousands of <br /> units that have zoning in place and aze going to be built in the very neaz future in West Hawaii, <br /> we need your support to approve this project so we can have a better choice for our vital goods <br /> and services. Please approve this rezoning request. <br /> Please contact us with any comments or questions. <br /> Mahalo and Aloha, <br /> <br /> Name: Mark Wilson <br /> <br /> Address: PO Box 384762 Waikoloa HI 96738 <br /> <br /> Phone: 808-883-8307 <br /> Comm.
