rush to sub divide and that it was intended as a scam to bring in tax dollars
Perhaps it's time East Hawaii subdivisions look into joining forces with the Kingdom of Hawaii. Then, secede from the state and county with the freedom to create their own commercial zoning within the new jurisdiction (and sticking with the OP, their own green waste facility). If nothing else, the prospect of Keaau and Hilo losing their retail grip over us might make them agreeable to a few roads and services.
If the county and state still won't budge, it may be time for the newly formed Kingdom of East Hawaii to set up a model of Las Vegas on one of those vacant 20 acre HPP lots with a mini replica Wynn, Luxor, Ceasar's Palace...
That'll generate funds for some infrastructure and services.
You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.
