RE: BILL 11178, REZONING REQUEST' FROM CLIFTO'S KONA COAST LLC FROM
A MG3A ZONING TO A PROJECT DISTRICT ZONING.
To the Honorable Chairman lames Arakaki and the County of Hawaii County Council,
We are writing to you today concerning Bill #178. This is the rezoning request of Clifto's
Kona Coast LLC to change their existing zoning of MG3a to a Project District on their 83
acre highway parcel which is located on the South side of the Natural Energy Lab of Hawaii.
We understand this is on your County Council agenda for Apri121, 2004,
As our elected representatives, we strongly urge your approval to this zoning change for
ntunerous reasons that are extremely beneficial to our community, you, your families and
most importantly your constituents.
We feel that Kona, North Kona and Suuth Kohala are in desperate need of alternative choices
for housing, goods and services. We all are aware of the current, continuing and increasing
traffic problems in West Hawaii and feel that if given a viable alternative, we will gratefully
embrace it and use it. 7hc concept of providing substantial goods and services six miles
North of Kona is most appealing and extremely logical. The eyuitable distribution of goods
and services will greatly enhattce our lives. 'There are literally thousands of people who live
in this area and have no choice but to drive into Kona for their needs. No other choices at all!
Just U1ink of the thousands of cars that will no longer drive into Kona end impact the only two
roadways. The impact this project would have on the traffic issues end quality of life for us is
immeasurahle. F,verybody wins! We also support Clifto's Kona Coast LLC's otter to
provide 20% oChismulti-family units to be deemed 'affordable housing' which is double the
requirement. This will greatly assist the many needy families with their battle in the ever
increasing cost of living in Hawaii.
Again, we need your help to improve our lives and the lives of the people of Hawaii wham
you have been elected to protect and represent. With all the residential projats totaling
thousands of units that have caning in place and are going to be built in the very near future in
West Hawaii, we need your support to approve this project so we can have a better choice for
our vital goods and services. Please approve this rezoning request.
Please contact us with any cornments or questions.
