I believe we need places like this to not only help build a stronger community but also to create jobs and a clean <br />local economy based on education and tourism. <br />I was a visitor using the facilities and urge all that are concerned to visit the center and see what an inspirational place it <br />is indeed. The gardens/orchards and off -grid infrastructure exemplify how people can live more closely to the land and a <br />sustainable style that adds to the solution of the carbon crisis instead of creating more problems. Also since Kalani has <br />taken a big step back, this type of center is in great need. <br />I understand that HER is sensitive to their neighbors and have initiated conversations and guidelines to address <br />concerns. <br />Your approval of this application would be very appreciated. <br />Sincerely, Kelrick Barrow <br />1 <br />
