Concerns with Special Permit Application PL-SSP-2023-000038
1. Environmental soil samples necessary due to old building exposure(lead paint)and chlorinated insecticides
Discovered on our property Sakamoto Building 2001 after purchase.
Chlordane has a biological half-life over 200 years used frequently 1940-50's.
Two road intersection location for any garden or planting agriculture project would be very dangerous due to
contamination causing severe health risks.
2.Affordable Housing Shortage North Kohala
Please designate affordable housing to public and Kohala Hospital medical staff also short term rentals for visiting
nursing staff,Phase I CONTRUCTION before medical clinic completed.
Currently we have long term affordable rentals in Sakamoto Building for all under$1,000 per month but are rarely
available.We have no short term rentals available for hospital visiting nursing staff.
3. Declaration for funding or financial disclosure for such a vast project before special use permits issued.
Purchase of property in escrow was delayed due to lack of finances for approx one year 2000-2001.
