People on the Big Island managed to live in residential neighborhoods and work in <br /> the surrounding area without vacation rentals for many, many years. <br /> Definition of residential from Wiktionary: <br /> residential <br /> 1. Of or pertaining to a place of personal residence or to a location for such places. <br /> They live in a residential neighborhood. <br /> 2. Used as a residence or by residents. <br /> 3. Of or pertaining to residency. <br /> Appropriate areas zoned for tourist accommodations (such as the resorts, or the business <br /> districts of cities/towns) should be encouraged. <br /> Mahalo, <br /> Sherry A.
