History of the making of Puna's subdivisions

[Rob Tucker]

Puna reminds me of the history of the San Fernando Valley in SoCal. Once a broad swath of agriculture with long rambling "boulevards" it subdivided into acre ag lots and the roads became unending miles choked with strip malls.

The Puna Community Development Plan is attempting to avoid that fate. One of our goals in the Land Use Working Group was to take the unholy mess we inherited from forty years ago and to try to avoid leaving a bigger unholy mess for forty years from now.
