This page is against the Bungalow Resort Development they want to build by clearing the ONLY land that helps protect Keauhou Bay from golf course pollution runoff.

Copy and Paste this all ready written letter (Add comments if like):

Dear Zendo Kern and Hawai'i Planning,

Please, OPPOSE Kamehameha Schools Bungalow Resort Development because it violates The Cultural Impact Statement Law https://www.capitol.hawaii.gov/sessions/session2020/bills/SB3152_.HTM.

Keauhou Bay is NOT big for all the tourists Kamehameha Schools Bungalow Resort will bring in, and support the Hawaiian people's and Big Island communities cultural practices. 

Plus, this development will seriously pollute Keauhou Bay and this bay is already listed as "Impaired Water" by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and NEEDS to be preserved https://mywaterway.epa.gov/waterbody-report/21HI/HI713293/2020.

Please read this page that has scientific proof developments kill marine life and destroys ecosystems nearby https://bigislandsupport.com/kbayinfo/.

Please stand with over 6,501 signatures on this petition https://www.change.org/p/save-keauhou-bay-from-becoming-a-big-crowded-resort?utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=custom_url&recruited_by_id=92a53560-1e91-11e5-b4ef-b94e90cedbdd and oppose Kamehameha Schools Bungalow Resort Development.

Kamehameha Schools have other properties they can use to make money such as Kahalu'u Manowai and Hale Laau that they've already developed lands and are hardly using. They do NOT need to devastate an entire ecosystem in Keauhou Bay to make money.

Thank you,

STEP 3 Call often and Get Everyone You Know to Call Because Your Voice Matters! 

Call Hawai'i Planning and ask them to Help Save Keauhou Bay from Kamehameha Schools Bungalow Resort Development. Tell them Kamehameha Schools have other properties they can use to make money such as Kahalu'u Manowai and Hale Laau that they've already developed and are hardly using.  They do NOT need to devastate an entire ecosystem in Keauhou Bay to make money.

Hawaii County Planning 808-323-4770 

Zendo Kern 808-961-8125

CALL and/or stop by Kamehameha Schools office and let them know how you feel about their bungalow resort development. Tell Kamehameha Schools they have Kahalu'u Manowai and Hale Laau that are already developed lands that they can use to make money instead of hurting an entire ecosystem in Keauhou Bay. They probably have other lands they can use to make money as well because they have more Hawaiian land than anyone and it was Endowed to them for the education of the Hawaiian people.

Let Kamehameha Schools know that Keauhou Bay MUST be PRESERVED for future generations and not become an overcrowded polluted bay for tourists.

Mālama ‘Āina.
