May 13, 2014
To: Puna Community Development Plan(PCDP)Action Committee, Chair Patti Pinto
From: PCDP Connectivity and Emergency Response Subcommittee (CERS), Chair Marlene Hapai
Subj ect: Request for Approval and Forwarding of the PCDP CERS Report on
Prioritized Connectivity Locations,May 2014
Emergency Response Subcommittee of the Puna Community Development Plan
Connectivity Report on Prioritized Connectivity Locations, May 2014
Background and Goals
Since January 2013,the PCDP Connectivity and Emergency Response Subcommittee (CERS)has been
collecting recommendations from the Puna community related to establishing emergency connectivity locations.
Through mapping activities at the August 2013 Puna Regional Emergency Preparedness Fair, PREP Fair
training workshops, surveys, community presentations, and resident testimony, CERS has identified 48
suggested Connectivity Locations(CLs). All of these efforts were guided by CERS goals, approved by the
PCDP AC on February 12, 2013, which included the following:
1. Highest priority—promote health and safety: Establish a series of connectivity locations between Puna
subdivisions and surrounding areas.
2. Desired Outcome: Identify and develop a combination of road connections of various types, agreeable to
residents that enable safe, indirect, calm passage, as well as provide more efficient access for emergency
traffic.
Primary Partnerships, Collaborative Activities, and Accomplishments
CERS created extensive partnerships and collaborative activities,resulting in the following accomplishments:
1. Developed an ongoing partnership with Civil Defense
2. Created and implemented Puna's first PREP Fair(August 2013),which presented 1500-2000
participants with interactive exhibits,presentations, and demonstrations, including major topics of:
Emergency Routes, Centers/Shelters, Planning, Communications, Security, Services, and Sustainability
3. Used the PREP Fair to
o Gather suggestions from the community via mapping activities that asked Puna residents to
identify routes, including Connectivity Locations, that might be used in case of an emergency
o Gather information via surveys to determine family and community emergency preparedness
4. Summarized PREP Fair mapping and survey data and shared results with community organizations
5. Sent surveys to community organizations to determine support for suggested Connectivity Locations,
anticipate problems, and gather more input
6. Heard testimony at monthly PCDP AC meetings regarding Connectivity Locations, received additional
suggestions, and answered questions
7. Used presentations to community groups to evaluate existing CL suggestions and gather more input to
update CL maps
8. Prioritized suggestions collected via all of the activities listed above, to prepare CL priority lists for four
areas: Volcano area,upper Puna, middle Puna, and lower Puna to forward to Hawaii County and to
others responsible for implementation
9. Conducted monthly meetings to plan the August 2014 PREP Fair, which will provide an additional
opportunity to solicit community input on connectivity locations and emergency evacuation routes and
emphasize family and community emergency preparedness
Rationale and Request
Because funding may be available to support high priority Connectivity Locations that have strong community
support and are ready for implementation,the CERS submits its prioritized lists for the four areas,with attached
documentation,to the PCDP AC for approval. These lists are based on community input and take into account
CL criteria developed during the PCDP process, as well as criteria provided by the County of Hawaii.
Actions Requested:
1. The Connectivity and Emergency Response Subcommittee requests that the Action Committee of the
PCDP approve this report and accompanying documents
2. The Connectivity and Emergency Response Subcommittee of the Puna Community Development
requests that the PCDP AC forward the prioritized list and accompanying resource documents to the
County of Hawaii Planning Department for distribution to Department of Public Works and to County
Council members representing Puna for additional input, implementation and funding.
