Atm-fors Dear Councilman Yagong,
Toni Blair
Barbara f.Bush
Linda Jane Kelley I am writing to discourage the adoption of Resolutions Nos. 312-98 and 311-
Ron Reilly 98. These resolutions support the trading of abandoned County roadways which
could be developed into sections of the Ka`apuni o Hawaii Pathway (a vision for a
aterunver
Ann C.Peterson multi-use trail encircling the island, supported by the County Council Resolution No.
269-98).
Aiwon
m promote trrH/csaii7ty
The Old Walua Road Bike & Pedestrian Scenic Route is a perfect example of
.
educwtxon,and asa/e how these old corridors can be made available for alternatives modes of
environment on
roadways and trails for transportation to commute and recreate. Opened in 1996, the Old Walua Road
/rogation, i multi-use lane is in constant use by residents and visitors who are anxious for more
fitness,and alternative
modes of transportation : trails to be developed.
Studies done on the over 3,000 multi-use trails nation-wide have shown that if
this area is slated for development, a multi-use trail running through it would increase
property values, and increase the selling price of adjacent land. Not to mention the
many other benefits as defined in Resolution 269-98, such as providing a sense or
community, allowing for healthier life-styles, and offering a safe place for children tc
play.
Please do not adopt these resolutions which promote the further loss o
potential right-of-ways for the Ka'apuni o Hawai'i Pathway.
Sincerely,
be
