HILO, Hawaii – In light of a recent Hawaii County Planning Department decision to reduce the monthly meetings of the various action committees working on the Big Island’s numerous community development plans, Kohala councilwoman Margaret Wille called for a discussion on Tuesday (Nov. 3).
CDP action committees now meet once every two months. Members of the Puna CDP Action Committee testified before the Hawaii County Council Committee on Planning, saying the reduced schedule is going to stall the amount of work that their committee can accomplish. A full discussion on the matter was postponed because the Hawaii County Planning Director Duane Kanuha was not able to be present for the Tuesday’s discussion.
