There were designated comercial areas in our location here in Hawaiian Beaches. When Hacker sold out and left, he gave the county another Park which was abandonded for years. We have now got it dedicated as Kahakai Park, and it is quite beautiful, including benches and a good place to watch whales when they go by. I think that we should get the county to condem some of the areas that were originally set up to provide commercial space within our sub-division so that we can walk to a "Mom and Pop" store to get milk snacks or even locally grown vegatables. Everyone who has to go all the way to Hilo to buy Kapoho fruit and veggies would love to have an area where we could just walk up the road a way and by them here. That is what I see as part of the Village Center concept.
