Road 8 is still privately owned, so they may be within their rights; I hope it happens.

[justthefacts]

apparently there are a few people that are talking about the road block . their rights?? I don't think so on that one road 8 was handed over to the county.

[kalakoa]

road 8 was handed over to the county

Actually, it wasn't.

[justthefacts]

I understood that several lot owners signed over there interest in road 8 to the county. so I would guess that puts the county in a control position , especially when they spent 2.5 million on the culverts to nowhere.

Only if more than half the lot owners "gave" their road lot interest to County.

Unlikely, but assuming it's true: where's the maintenance?

[justthefacts]

yeah there is minimal maintenance they fill in the pot holes and cut back the weeds and grass on the sides of the road . atleast they do something.

what is the cost of this new cam ??? Any one know ?

It isn't "big money". A couple hundred dollars for the low resolution camera and a few hundred more to hook it up to the existing fiber line that runs down the side of the highway.

I just hope that traffic division figures out that allowing a single vehicle on Milo should not immediately trigger a red light on the main highway, just so that a single vehicle doesn't have to wait more than 3 seconds.
The system Thiel described, if instituted, would be islandwide, and similar to Oahu’s GoAkamai system.
According to the article, Thiel said a preliminary price to install about two-thirds of the cameras and associated operating network is about $17 million. He said federal grants could provide 100 percent of the cost, but added there are “a lot of hoops to go through.”[:0]
