To Windward Planning Commission
As a Puna resident, I am writing to support the 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 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. 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 concerns.
Your approval of this application would be very appreciated.
Sincerely,
Kelly Klein
