RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Beachboy - 01-04-2007 quote: I'm thinking more in the line of Haleiwa, Oahu or Paia, Maui. Kahunascott is right too, there is no turning back it's growth either. Except it, and embrass it. For the most part it can only increase one's quality of life.

We are not trying to stop or reverse growth. The issue is having planned growth. Is there something amiss in planning for the future in lieu of simply letting what ever happens happen? RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - David M - 01-04-2007 One of the things that really impressed me when living in Germany was related to this topic. Towns and villages were connected by strips of country, not strip malls. It was quite common to see an old building in town get stripped down to its bones, new, updated systems installed and the building refinished presenting a building that fit in with its neighbors. David Ninole Resident RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Seeb - 01-04-2007 in a lot of places planing and zoneing is at the town/village level giving comunitys a litte more say in there destiny RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Scott_S - 01-04-2007 I am with you Rob, keep commerce centralized. Let's try to keep some of the natural beauty along the roadways. Scott RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Rob Tucker - 01-05-2007 The Tribune Herald's top headline this morning was yesterday's council meeting. Not one word or whisper about this Puna Brouhaha.

Many of them don’t want growth at all, “Keep it the same” type attitude. When I say, “Embrace change” it’s to keep on top of change, contribute to planning and zoning changes. Become active in the community and try to do best for the community. We moved here because of the status of Pahoa, we love the small town. But, as I said no matter if you’re a newbie or moved here 20 years ago we are all part of the problems of expansion and growth. RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Kapohocat - 01-05-2007 Rob - Know anything about how AIA Services (know Yamada Developement) on Hwy 130 between Makuu & Ainaloa got to do a commercial biz on ag land? They are a hauling, bulldozing and general contracting biz. -Cat RE: pending Council vote threatens Pahoa Village - Rob Tucker - 01-05-2007 I really don't. There area a number of what are called "non-conforming" uses. Are you referring to the brand new metal building, catchment tank and paved parking? If so I noticed that and was wondering myself. To the best of my knowledge those uses, legal or illegal, are not entering from hwy 130. They may be operating under some special use permit. There are a lot of folks in Puna, deprived of valid zoning for mixed uses, who got creative with their definition of AG zones. |
