RE: BILL #178, REZONING REQUEST FROM CLIFTO'S KONA COAST LLC. FROM
A MG3A ZONING TO A PROJECT DISTRICT ZONING.
To the Honorable Chairman James Arakaki and the County of Hawaii County Council,
We aze 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 [his is nn your County Council agenda for April 21, 2004.
As our elected representatives, we strongly urge your approval to this zoning change for
numerous reasons that are extremely beneficial to our conununi[y, you, your families and
most importantly your constituents.
We tact that Kona. North Kona and South Kohala are in desperate need of alternative choices
for housing, goods and services. We all aze awaze of the current, continuing and increasing
traffic problems in West Ilawaii and feel that if given a viable alternative, we will gratefully
embrace it and use it The concept of providing substantial goods and services six miles
North of Kona is most appealing and extremely logical. The eyuilable distribution of goods
and services will greatly enhance 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 think of the thousands of cars that will no longer drive into Kona and impact the only two
roadways. The impact this project would have on the traffic issues and quality of life for us is
immeastuable. Everybody wins! We also support Clifto's Kona Coast LLC's offer to
provide 20% of his multi-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 whom
you have been elected to protect and represent. With all the residential projcx;ts loWling
thousands of units that have zoning in place and are going to be built in the very near fuh^re in
West Hawaii, we need your support to approve this project so we cap have a better choice for
our vital goods and services. Plcasc approve this rezoning request.
Please contaut us with any wmments or yuestions.
