Angel Subject: Bill 123 -KPC Villages, LLC Aloha Council Members, You may remember me as one of the newer members of the Hawaii County Transportation Commission. Since we have a mutual concerns in improving the development process and supplying needed infrastructure in West Hawaii, I thought you might have an interest in my attached testimony. I believe that a Partnership using some form of Enterprise Funding is essential to help close the gap on our infrastructure deficit. Unfortunately, I do not have all of the financial data available. A rough estimate of property taxes using only 22 additional (beyond the current allowable) units at $5,000 per year each, and a possible $40,000 from the commercial area would yield $150,000 per year. Wth allowances for interest, improvements and assessment changes, this could be $1,500,000 over ten years. This is the same amount that Public Works budgeted for the road. More adjustments could be made to the number of years or even the number of units to be considered. Leveraging future taxes that the County would not otherwise receive unless the development is built, to provide infrastructure that is needed, but might not otherwise be provided in time, is a concept that I strongly support.
