Give Testimony to Big Island General Plan Because Your Voice is Needed 

We are in the comment period for Big Island General Plan. It is a very long plan, and it can change your life on island. It's also very vague, it's trying to "incorporate" ways to take personal land and give more power to the Hawai'i Director.   https://www.planning.hawaiicounty.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/308136/638597487229830000.

In the General Plan on page 111 it states,

17.4 "Land use applications shall identify as early as possible any existing or potential active living corridors that should be incorporated into the County’s open space network."

If this plan goes through and you fill out a Land USE application to build or get a permit on your property, you WILL have to identify if your property has an "existing or POTENTIAL active living corridors that SHOULD BE INCORPORPORATED INTO THE COUNTY'S OPEN SPACE NETWORK.

So, land that the county "SHOULD" TAKE BUT THEY ARE USING THE WORDS "INCORPORPORATE INTO THE COUNTY'S OPEN SPACE NETWORK".

This site has different views on the General Plan and it's up to you to feel what is right. I just want to give you information that is out there https://www.standtogetherhawaii.com/action.
