Honorable Mayor Harry Kim
I read your comments in the news paper yesterday and they reflect my
sentiments and those of many people I have spoken with here in Ka' u. I
believe everyone no matter which side of this debate they are on realizes
that the choices we have are not going to give us what we want. A choice
made now no matter which one will drive a wedge within the community
that will last along time and will be very hard to over come. We need to
compromise and make concessions on all sides. I believe there is a way
that all parties can get what the wish to fundamentally see happen at
Punalu u come to fruition. The hazd liners on all three sides must yield.
(Ka'u Preservation, O Ka'u Kakou, and Sea Mountain five) No one will
benefit if we lose Punalu u to an unsustainable development that does not
fit into and blend with the raw rugged beauty of the Ka'u district. I have
taken the liberty of using Councilman Jacobson's map to put forth a
proposal that I think might palatable to all sides even though it may not
be their favorite food. I have included the maps with notes of explanation.
I would be more than willing to assist you if you think I could help in
fleshing this out.
Respectfully, ~ ~~~v ~ /
