TESTIMONY
Re: Bill 209 Draft (3)
I am John Ray, President of Hawaii Leeward Planning Conference, testifying
in support of BM 209 Draft (3) and specifically in support of Department of Public
Works item Kahului - Keaahon Parkway, previously known as Ali'i Highway.
This project has been a major planned arterial through Kona on both the
State and County levels, for over 30 years. It represents a major North-South
connector for residents, tourists, and goods and services to move and commute
through this region on a daily and orderly basis, a goal made significantly more
realistic by the recent groundbreaking of the Oceanside 1250 Project. In and of
itself it will comprise the largest capacity mauka -makai connector in the area, and
serve as the spine for additional secondary connections, all critical to address public
safety concerns. This parkway corridor is the key -to. developing the community
between Kellum and• Keanhou which we believe is a sound planning pal to address •
urban sprawl in the region. We should be promoting greater urban density in
proximity to our commercial, school, and recreational infrastructure.

Testimony on BM 209 Draft (3)

The consequences of not building this road will result in intolerable impacts
on Ali'i Drive and Rankin' Highway. The constracdon scenario to widen Kuakini
Highway is'lightening.
So please support this much needed and long awaited project.
We share the community's concern over design issues and pledge to work
actively to create the most attractive and user - friendly road possible.
Thank you for the opportunity to testify.
Very truly yours,
John 11. Ray
