TESTIMONY
in SUPPORT of
Kaupulehu Developments District Classification Change
from Open Space to Project District at Kaupulehu, North Kona, Hawaii
Good afternoon Chair Leithead -Todd and members of the Planning
Committee. My name is James C. Pacopac, representing the Pacific
Resource Partnership, A joint Market Recovery Program of Hawaii's
Unionized Contractors and the Hawaii Carpenters Union. We are support of
Kaupulehu Developments District Classification Change to Project District
Zoning.
As you know Hawaii's construction industry has been depressed by the
economic slump. Any and all construction projects are very important to our
industries welfare and recovery. We support the master plan for this
development and anticipate the construction of the multi-family and single
family units, the golf course and clubhouse, the neighborhood commercial
center, the residents club, and the on-site infrastructure and public access
improvements, to provide the needed construction jobs for our industry.
We have supported this development through it's approval at the LUC and
applaud this developments initiative of incorporating a coastal planning area
for the preservation and management of important and cultural resources.
Again we support Kaupulehu Developments request for the Classification
Change and ask for your support and approval. Thank you.
