Subject: Hawaii 2054 Plan IS JUNK AND JUST A LAND AND WATER GRAB
Date:Monday,January 13,2025 9:30:12 AM
Dear Planning Departments and Kona Development Committee:
Why can't you have some meetings in the evening or on the weekend for the people who work
constantly to afford to live here. The Smart City and 2045 General Plan plans must not be
adopted.
The 2045 plan steals land from everyone who is not in an existing census cluster. The county
plans on only spending money for infrastructure in the census cluster areas and going to ignore
the rest of the island.
You don't get to take my AG10 land and unilaterally change it to "Natural" WITHOUT
COMPENSATION.
You don't get to tell me how much water I can use, or that the County owns my water!
You don't get to ignore all the substandard subdivisions you approved in the "good of boy
days" because we arn't an urban cluster- we need our taxpayer public roads for economic and
safety reasons and we need priority because you in the cities already have multiple roads
going everywhere..
You don't get to tax me more because I happen to live in a rural area and therefore drive more
than you think I should.
