DLNR open meeting on Honuaula Forest Reserve
In order to support a growing demand for recreational space in the North Kona District, the DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) is conducting a civic use study to gauge community interest in recreational and subsistence uses, such as hiking, hunting, and gathering other forest resources in the Honua‘ula Forest Reserve. As part of the study, DOFAW has scheduled an open meeting, 6-7:30 p.m., July 15, West Hawaii Civic Center council chambers, to present and receive input on the Kailua-Kona community’s preferences and potential management strategies to support anticipated future increase in activity.
There will be a brief presentation, live polling to solicit real time community feedback, and an opportunity to ask DOFAW representatives questions regarding the proposed project.
