Did I not just see a post saying that Kea'au was proposed for development by Shipman, and would possibly be 'bigger than Hilo' in the fullness of time?
Sounds like a GREAT place for a rocket launch facility! As always, follow the money.
If such a thing is necessary, how about areas already co-opted by the U S Government, such as PTA or the Marine Base on Old Saddle Road?
This is a private enterprise operation. Why are the local taxpayers or the Federal Government being considered as a source of revenue for this venture? Let this company lease land already under Federal control, thus enabling at least minimal tax relief.
Harry says we're broke. Just say 'no' to any requests for local funds. Besides, Uncle Robert's already has a Spaceport...
