AH-36 BILL 127 (2022) BILL 127 (2022), RELATING TO THE RECLASSIFICATION OF THE STATE LAND USE DISTRICT FOR THE KUIKAHI VILLAGE WORKFORCE HOUSING PROJECT (WAILUKU) (AH-36)
Although here on Maui we have a shortage of housing, let alone affordable, I have an objection to this project, the lack of government foresight. It's just like government to allow a development like this in a vacuum. Who would be opposed to affordable housing? So you build it without considering the overall affects to the community.
Overall, a development of this size has an impact on our community with our single lane roads that in the morning appear to be at capacity. Does anyone else get stuck in traffic in the morning in that vicinity? The highway and Waiale already remind me of traffic in Honolulu. and now we want to add another 400+ cars?
It seems to me that prior to adding such a large and densely populated development around the Highway and Waiale the State, County , and the developer would collectively work to alleviate the traffic and I'm pretty sure a round about is not going to improve traffic towards Wailuku town in the mornings. Or we can just follow Honolulu's example ... build it and they will get stuck in it!
