Dave;
Missed my tide window.
I am talking about the Big Island, not including Kona and Kohala of course. They sold their souls a long time ago. Really no need to bring in the rest of Polynesia in this discussion.
Researched this a lot. Which is why I am here. Just think opposite of a flipper, it's easy.
The game changer here is not putting a lot of rules and regulations into place via local politics. The game changer is also not trying to bully the local government into putting infrastructure in place. It is way too ingrained.
No, the worst fear of anyone living here is a developer who puts in their own infrastucture. They pave their own roads, they provide their own power generation, they make their own water, they process their own waste. BECAUSE, if that happens, everyone else will have to follow suite. "If so and so can do it, so can you."
Can't stop that from happening with rules and regulations. The developer is asking for nothing, providing everything. A model of self sufficiency.
I looked into this a few years ago, numbers did not work then but technology has a way of getting cheaper in the future. If I even smell something like that happening here, it is time for one more move for me.
You take care as well.
