Angel; Hoffmann, Pete; EastWest@lava.net; etofak@hotmail.com <br /> Subject: nnmmentary regarding richard wheelock's rezonc application (I:CZ 05-000020) <br /> <br /> Dcar Council M.MLCrs, <br /> Please accept this letter of support for Richard Wheelock's re-zone <br /> application (rez 05-000026). My name is Eric Tallan, I represent <br /> Holualoa <br /> o,;gauic FaL= Lm,k (3) 7-0-002-0,~1. Uur rarm is adjacent to the site to <br /> be <br /> re-zoned (mauka and south). I have reviewed the proposal and addressed <br /> my <br /> concerns with Mr. Wheelock. Mr. Wheelock has demonstrated his <br /> understanding <br /> and support o£ the LzddiLiundl agricultural heritage or toe land mauka - <br /> of <br /> his property. He is sensitive to the needs and accepting of the _ <br /> Ludli UaN - <br /> of the agricultural livelihood. The design of the development - <br /> demonstrates <br /> Lt,ak he is a responsible developer. The proposal addresses the needs of <br /> the <br /> community including affordable housing, charitable causes and traffic <br /> patterns. Not only has Mr. Wnceiock designed his project to minimize <br /> the <br /> a.mpact on surrounding parcels, he has offered our farm access to his <br /> private <br /> road as a gesture of his goodwill (independent of my decision to support <br /> his <br /> project). The Mamalahoa highway (our only other road access) is so <br /> congested that I cannot live on my own farm and qualify to practice <br /> medicine <br /> at the local hospital in Kona. I am an Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon, <br /> currently living off island, but would like to farm and practice <br /> medicine in <br /> Kona,. In summary, I support Mr. Wheelock's application without <br /> reservation <br /> and encourage the council to grant his request. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Eric M Tallan <br /> Holualoa Organic Farms <br /> <br /> <br /> t Comm.
