"I think this is more about HA because . . . "
I can see why it seems that way, but I will note that when I first read the whole bill, I found several elements of it that I thought were tailor made for my own subdivision, HPP. It all depends on your point of view.
As for Sanbuenaventura and/or her husband owning property in HA, I've been told that they own some in HPP, too. I see having a representative who owns property in one (or more) of these subdivisions as a positive point of knowledge and experience rather than a conflict of interest. After all, a large percentage of Puna's residents live in these subdivisions. And finally, I can see scenarios under which some of these proposals could result in lower property values, depending on how they are carried out. Life is full of gambles.
