Save the Mahogany Trees at the Honokaʻa County Park

As usual, the Hawaiian government is acting like stupidity is a virtue! These trees add to the beauty of our island home. These are the same imbeciles that permitted the killing of the red-headed parakeets because they were predating on a limited number of coffee trees. Their excuse was that the parakeets were not indigenous.....as if coffee trees are!!! Maybe we should direct county employees to consider cleaning up the litter, fix the parking issues in Kona and resolve the homeless problem in town!

Please don’t remove those iconic trees.

Preserve our aina and Hawaii beauty. Also like the shade they provide.

Please save the trees and honor the requests of the community to modify the proposal/scope of work.

Please Kokua the Aina by leaving the healthy trees alone

Thank you for taking the time and effort to find solutions that maximize outcomes for all concerned.

Please pause the removal of these trees and seek alternative methods.

Save the healthy trees.

Leave the trees too many people moving to this island lately and plowing down trees at an alarming rate!!!!

Please stop cutting down the trees in our beautiful parks and aina. This is a very disturbing trend on the island, not sure why or what's going on but it needs to stop. Better land management is essential!

Save the trees

I'd love to see these beautiful trees remain.

Save the trees

There's got to be a better way than cutting down iconic and much-needed shade trees, just for a parking lot. Listen to the people who live there and use the park - their priorities should be considered.

Unless the trees are absolutely diseased or are rot ridden, and are gonna fall and kill somebody, you need to leave old Trees alone

It’s inconceivable to cut down 36 shade trees due to a few causing issues in the parking lots.

Please save these trees! They are a vital part of what makes this place beautiful, comfortable and inviting to the community! I think taking the few down that need to go and perhaps adding another smaller parking lot. When the shade of the canopy goes, so will many of the people. Remember, the Life of the Land is Preserved in Righteousness!

Eradication of all trees is not a thoughtful solution

The trees are beautiful & functional & need to be protected.
