The problem that EVERYONE has in HPP is that were paying through the nose for Road Maintenance and not getting any.
The problem that EVERYONE has in Puna is that we're paying fuel tax, property tax, and GET, but not getting any services or representation.
This is a problem that EVERYONE has, regardless of whether they live in HPP, Orchidland, Ainaloa, Hawaiian Acres, Hawaiian Beaches, Hawaiian Shores Rec, Nanavale, Fern Acres, Eden Roc, Fern Forest, Glenwood ...
It wouldn't be so bad if County could just get out of the way, but no, they spend our tax dollars actively obstructing progress.
It's far, far bigger than mailboxes or "fugitive dust" or "rogue board shenanigans".
It's also far, far easier for County if the individual subdivisions fight their pointless internal battles, each separately addressing similar issues.
We are not getting fined by DOH because we don't have enough mailboxes.
Nor are the DOH fines making any difference in the outcome.
