Saturday April 1st 10 AM at Wailokoloa Elementary School
This workshop will consist of 2 presenters who will show us what the basic principles of community planning & development should be according to various academic solutions and real world results. If you have never heard of Smart-Growth, you should attend. If you have ever participated in the Politics of NO, you should most certainly attend.
We can grow Hawaii carefully, in the right way. But only if we all learn the right answers together such that we do not bicker later during implementation of good ideas.
These are some of my personal notes on community design:
Mixed-Use, Higher Densities, Preservation of Ag/Open Space, Tax breaks for productive farmers, Tax hikes for land bankers, Taller Buildings, Parking in rear or underneath, Walkable Retail Fronts with a mixture of Residential and Office Upstairs, Concentrated, Higher Density, Mixed Use environments to foster the natural growth of public transportation, Interconnected, grid style street layouts for multiple transportation solutions, NO MORE CUL DE SACS !! Tall Multi-level parking environments to preserve land in the middle of the busiest business areas promote walking solutions for drivers from distances, Smaller Dwelling sizes in multiple story environments to accommodate affordability issues.
