Jon, it seems to me that you have not read the Puna Community Development Plan. Is this true?
And explain please. Why would closing Hy. 130 to commercial development doom Puna to a third world existence or a enclave of millionaires? I don't see the connection.
To assume that our highways must be lined with stores is, in my opinion, the old cheap gas model of planning. Where everyone is driving around in gas guzzlers going to and fro. Isn't that what you have in Texas?
In a Village Center model the goods and services are clustered which preserves the sense of rural life and makes public transportation practical. Village Centers are the chosen design model for the district.

Assume the best and ask questions.
