That is one reason why I choose to live on a county road. They provide not only free power poles (no ssp fees) no road maintenance fee's ... If a tree falls on the power lines the city has to deal with it in a timely matter (one hopes anyway). I also dig the private water, mail delivery to your own mail box and high speed internet. Road runner rocks in Hi Beaches.
Supposedly police, fire and medical must come down a county maintained street ... Just like they would in a private subdivision but, I there is a reason Pahoa is getting more attention than say the biggest sub-division (HPP) on the big island. If HPP was maintained by the county... I am sure that HPP would have got the police and fire station right next to them instead of Pahoa.
As far as your mail complaint. I would think your case would be ignored and shuffled under the (sue me again) ... The government has more time and money than you do. It's impossible to sue them. I thought the same way when I lived in Orchid Land and they were building more boxes in Keaau. I was on the list for more than a year and even kept the same phone number on file for them even after I sold my lots there and I never got a call. I was told you had to bring in some gifts like manapua or ahi or mangos if you wanted to move up the chain to RENT a Box. I talked to the Post Master and filled out the how are we doing cards with no results. Maybe it has changed? I doubt it. Maybe try bring in some macadamia nut candy?
Good Luck!
