Subject: Delete F-2 Amendment
Importance: High
To: The Hawaii County Council, reviewing Bill 309 - Amendment F-2 in HILO for
Tuesday, October 24th at 213M.
I am extremely disappointed and disheartened to learn that the public hearing scheduled
in Kona to review Bill 309 - Amendment F-2 has been cancelled. Although I understand
that you must respond to the earthquake damage, I do not understand why the Kona
Public Hearing could not have been rescheduled to allow West Hawaii residents to voice
their opinion on this very important issue.
I live in Captain Cook, on the road to Kealakekua Bay, and I wish to strongly oppose any
changes that go against the goals to preserve agricultural [and in South Kona as
expressed in the long-range Genera[ Plan [GP] of February 2005.
Specifically, I urge the council to DELETE the Proposed F-2 Amendment to the General Plan
Land Use Pattern [LUPAG Map] because it will change almost 100 acres above Kealakekua
Bay from "Important Agriculture" Land Use Designation to "Rural" Land Use.
Kealakekua Bay is a precious marine preserve that is treasured by the people of Hawaii
and visitors. Allowing more congestion to encroach of the beautiful area will diminish and
endanger the marine life that is supposed to be protected.
Please delete the Proposed F-2 Amendment to the General Plan.
Sincerely, Nancy Benavides
