To Windward Planning Commission,
As a Puna resident,I am writing to support the above application for a special use permit. I believe we need places
like this to not only help build a stronger community but also to create jobs and a clean local economy based on
education and tourism.
I have been at HER several times and loved it.
I am a frequent visitor using the facilities and urge all that are concerned to visit the center and see what an
inspirational place it is indeed.
The gardens/orchards and off-grid infrastructure exemplify how people can live more closely to the land and a
sustainable style that adds to the solution of the carbon crisis instead of creating more problems.Also since Kalani
has taken a big step back,this type of center is in great need.
I understand that HER is sensitive to their neighbors and have initiated conversations and guidelines to address
concems.
Your approval of this application would be very appreciated.
Sincerely,
Christian Filippella
