My Turn: Old plan doesn’t fit today’s neighborhood
The project Kona Village was formulated 40 years ago as part of the “Kona Vista Plan 1983” when the acreage was still farmed and buildings nearly non-existent. For it, 70 acres were rezoned from ag (agricultural) to high density, or urban district, in 1988. Back then, Lako Street did not exist (nor did Kona Vistas nor Iolani) and Lako did not serve as a connector for Holualoa residents going to Kailua-Kona or Keauhou nor for in-coming tourists.
