Dear councilmembers,
The County should have bought the beach at Punalu'u/Ninole long ago.
Preserving the legacy of irreplaceable natural beauty should be our duty to the children
of the future.
Or will our children and our grandchildren be the brown pool boys and cocktail girls of
the rich and famous?
Changes are already happening in Ka'u: new stores in Ocean View, new construction on all
fronts. Things are far from dying; there are waiting lists for a post box in every town.
What we need is infrastructure.
Before resorts, we need county water to every home. We need banks, pharmacies, commercial
buildings for rent, road improvements, etc. We want healthy communities, not marginalized
ghettos surrounding wealthy enclaves.
I urge you to vote in favor of Resolution 169-07, and to continue to block big business
efforts to develop the Ahapua'a of Punalu'u.
Sincerely,
Robert Domingos
Waiohinu, Ka'u
