RE: BILL #178, REl.ONING REQUEST FROM CLIFTO'S KONA COAST LLC FROM
A MG3A ZONING TO A PROJECT DISTRICT ZONING.
io [he Honorable Chairman lames Arekaki and the County of Httwaii Cvunly Cvuncil,
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 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 community, you, your families and
most importantly your constituents.
We feel that Kuna, Nortb Kona and South Kohala aze in desperate need of alternative choices
for housing, goods and services. We all are awazc 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 must appealing and exlremely Ivgical. The eyuitable 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 al]!
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 yuality of life for us is
immeasurable. Everybody wins! We also support Clifto's Kona Coast LLC's offer to
rnovide 20% of his mu1G-family units to Ix 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 Ute lives of the people of Hawaii wham
you have been elected to protect and represent. With al] the residential projects totaling
thousands of units that have zoning in place and are going to be built in the very neaz 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 comments or questions.
Mahalo and Aloha,
