Class Action Lawsuit to change Ag to Residential

[Rob Tucker]

I have been talking to Fred Blas about this for a year or so and am meeting with him next week. A solution is needed and it should be a legislative solution. The current council may well be receptive to an overhaul of Puna zoning and consideration perhaps of even a new zoning classification. I see the current planning director as an obstacle that can be overcome.

A lawsuit is not the answer at this time. Working through our council office, community associations and with Friends of Puna's Future (www.fopf.org) is the way to go.
