Kalakoa, there are a lot of people that would agree with you generally. What is missing from your approach is the magnitude of Puna's 80,000
privately owned lots. There is no known legal method available to prevent each and every one of these from building out someday. This is one
of the basic realities of Puna that the PCDP had to deal with. Add to that the fact that Puna has been having the highest rate of growth in the
state.... then do the math. Number of people per household.
A lot of community time and research concluded that an alternative route, referred to as PMAR, is needed. Most any casual review will come to the same conclusion
as will a professional analysis. Puna is vastly under served for it's transportation needs - present and projected.

Assume the best and ask questions.
