Kealakehe Regional Park final master plan to be unveiled
The County of Hawai‘i Department of Parks and Recreation cordially invites the public
to a presentation of the final master plan for the proposed Kealakehe Regional Park.
The master plan will be available for public review from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Tuesday,
July 23, in the Community Meeting Hale (Building G) of the West Hawai‘i Civic Center
located at 74-5044 Ane Keohokālole Highway in Kailua-Kona.
Kealakehe Regional Park is proposed to be built on a 190-acre site located between the
Kealakehe Police Station and the West Hawai‘i Civic Center. The state property, which
has been placed under County control, is bordered by Queen Ka‘ahumanu and Ane
Keohokālole highways.
Reflecting input gathered from numerous stakeholders, the master plan proposes a
soccer/football/rugby complex, a baseball/softball complex and a tennis complex. A
covered play court suitable for indoor basketball and volleyball, along with a central
plaza featuring an amphitheater, skate park and various other recreational facilities also
are part of the park’s design.
People needing accessibility accommodations, a sign language interpreter, or printed
materials in alternate form for this meeting are asked to contact the Department of
Parks and Recreation at (808) 345-9105.
