I chaired the Land Use Working Group of the PCDP. Input was gathered from a few thousand participants through out Puna. There were three levels of proposed commercial zones. Neighborhood centers, village centers and regional centers. Each major subdivision selected it's own preferred neighborhood center area. Village and Regional Centers were defined around existing locations for simple reasons.... they were already there.
The PCDP was no magic wand to make a neighborhood cafe spring into existence. It was just a roadmap. The PCDP itself is unable to overcome the incompetence and corruption of our county government. Only voters can do that.]
I have been surprised over the years that the accumulated wealth and brain power of HPP is incapable of doing anything. You would think the 2nd largest subdivision in the U.S. would be capable of establishing some services in the course of a decade. But instead of fighting the county they fight each other... and that's the way it's been.
The lack of performance is not the fault of the Puna Community Development Plan. It is the fault of the residents of Puna.

Assume the best and ask questions.
