Just a thought......
Consider this...if the Association purchased 2 lots each on Makuu, Paradise and Kaloli and one acre on Shower and one acre on Pohaku Circle to house 8800 mail boxes. Divided by 8 acres, each lot would have to house 1100 boxes....more or less. Is that even doable? I doubt many, if any, Post Offices contain that many boxes. Even at 3 lots each on Makuu, Paradise and Kaloli and one each on Shower and Pohaku for a total of 11 acres would have to house 800 boxes per acre. The price of the lots, prepping (clearing, pouring of the slabs and installing the posts) and the cost of the boxes sounds pretty much cost prohibitive. Even if HPP could build its own Post Office, it couldn't contain 8800 boxes. Something to consider when you vote. $150 x 600 = $90,000.....not enough to even buy the lots.
