Developers want to change agricultural land to industrial in the heart of Lualualei valley in Wai’anae, some of the richest and most productive farm lands in Hawai’i.
The Waianae Sustainable Communities Plan is coming before the City Council on Nov. 2nd (1pm, Kapolei Hale).
1. Please send letters to the council members through this link sponsored by KAHEA.
2. Come to the hearing to testify in person and/or show support with signs etc. See instructions below on how to testify.
3. Send in written testimony online at this link.
The key issue is to remove the “purple spot” (agricultural land rezoned to industrial) from the Waianae Sustainable Communities Plan. Waianae and Ewa residents should also contact Tom Berg with your concerns. As the Council Member for the district, his position will be influential.
