Dear Sirs:
The Kona-Kohala Chamber of Commerce is supportive of an extension for the project
plans for the Kealakekua Development Corporation. We understand that the corporation
is askins_* for afive-vear extension.
T'he economy in Japan continues to deteriorate and may even erode further. 'T'his
company is in no position, at this time, to implement their current plans, even though they
may want to. The Kealakekua Ranch Lands plan was approved in 1995 and it would
certainly seem to be in the best inkerest of the Big Island, to allow this extension.
We encourage your favorable consideration.
Si~cerely yours,
~
Marni Herkes, President
