Aloha, all.
Please remember to attend the meeting at Kealakehe High School cafeteria at 6 PM tonight. If you can’t, make sure you send your written testimony NOW!
Our position is unchanged. We’re not opposing Palamanui, but simply demanding our laws be followed. We’ve recently discovered Ordinance 93-45 is not the first one requiring the 80 foot mauka-makai connector road that was never built. It was originally required by Ordinance 850, effective 2/15/1983, and was restated in Ordinance 88-23, effective 2/29/88. And now with Bills 224 and 225, to be discussed tonight, our planning director wishes to remove the requirements for the road and make the substandard Makalei Drive the connector. According to the recent decision by the Hawaii Supreme Court in the case of Kienker vs. Bauer and the State of Hawaii, that potentially exposes the residents of Hawaii County to substantial legal liability.
We know the developer is marshalling support for his position. We need your help. Please, attend this meeting and make your position, whatever it is, known. Do any of us, residents of Makalei or others, really want another substandard, dangerous road with substantial legal exposure when the law already requires the developer to provide a safe, properly designed road?
Mahalo.
