"or was it just taxpayer money to the charter school based on enrollment and the school made the decision on their own to use that location?"
Yes this is how Charter schools operate.They do not get a facility expense per pupil like regular DOE students.Are you implying charter school children do not deserve to have a school building.
Whats your point?
As far as the DOE building schools thats something else, basically the DOE/state has power over the county and can put a school anywhere they want. Charter schools are different unfortunately, lets not commingle the two its completely different.
The problem is in our Puna community of about 40,000 people there
IS NO ZONING FOR SCHOOLS
We need at least one school zoned lot in every 2 square miles throughout the State.
