Dear Fellow Hawaiians/Community Stakeholders,
Here are some concerns:
1. The word"Stakeholder," defined in the plan,is written 86 times and literally means anyone in the entire world
can have input on this plan.
Please recommend Stakeholder be changed to the following: "Local Communities". Local Communities are local
Big Island farmers,homeowners,renters,organizations,businesses,and individuals who live on Big Island or have
property on Big Island that will be personally affected by projects,decisions,or activities in the general plan.
Effective local community engagement and management are crucial for the success and sustainability of any
initiative,as it helps ensure that diverse perspectives and interests are considered.
2. The OSCER Department in the plan will null and void all public input and leave decisions to unelected officials.
This is NOT okay! This department should not be created.This is on page 188,40.8.
3. The Planning Department has sent out letters to many homeowners telling them their land use will be changed
from resident to recreation due to the General Plan 2045.This will drastically lower their property value and opens
the door to rezone the area. This is not pono.It breaks the Aloha Spirit law§ 5-7.5. To reduce someone's property
value is not okay. This must be made pono again.
4. There is a huge section on climate change and things that will be affected.This needs to be further researched.
There are over 1900 credentialed scientists that say there is no climate danger. Here is the pdf showing the scientists
and what country they are from.https://clintel.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WCD-241023.pdf John Coleman,
the first weather man for Good Morning America and the Founder of the Weather Channel has gone on CNN and
other media outlets stating,"There is no climate danger".He explain the reason for this narrative is the investors,in
renewable energy,want to make these changes.
But,there are extensive terra forming weather modification operations(aka geoengineering,SRM,etc.)being
conducted by the U.S.military and their contractors.
5. Hilo does not have a Community Development Plan. How can a Big Island General Plan move forward without
that?Hilo is 22%of the island.
6. This plan wants to turn land into"conservation".The exact opposite is what is needed for Big Island! We need to
turn land into Ag Villages and grow more food! Steve Shropshire,a resident of Papaikou,has created an Ag
Villages plan.
All in all,this plan being floated around the U.S,looks like a U.N.one-world-order agenda plan. Are you trying to
surrender Hawaii to those globalist elites?
Thank you for taking this to your Hawaiian hearts.
