Waiono is NO place to have events , parties etc. by doing so there will be a lot of accidents an deaths. Holualoa road is not a good place for this.

This directly affects neighboring properties who are actually farming not commercializing their lands. Neighbors should have a say! Keep it agriculture use only! No special permit!

Agricultural land on Hawai'i island and state wide should not be used for commercial bussiness which is what a regular wedding venue would be! A small family wedding occasionally is acceptable but this is not agricultural related business and should not be allowed!

The road is of great concern, only people who use it every single day fully understand the dangers, close calls, or actual incidents that make us all oppose this sup. There are heavy trucks carrying cattle, horses, equipment etc. the road is navigated with a great deal of caution and driven very offensively by those who know it well.
I completely understand the desire to seek alternative streams of income. However If it is opposed by nearly all the people who actually live and work up there it seems as though it’s not appropriate. My encounters with the large majority of our neighbors have never been anything but helpful and pleasant, and have I never found them to be unreasonable, petty, or intrusive with the lives of their neighbors, so for there to be this much concern, energy and distrust in regards to this particular SUP it’s really says something.

The road is dangerous and holding sizable events multiple times a week will add people who are not only unfamiliar with its hazards, where the blind spots are and where to pull off to allow for oncoming traffic but also people who are intoxicated and unaware of the road protocol especially at night.
Yes it’s a lucrative business, yes the vendors want to see it pass, and I am compassionate to that, Its a shame they didnt submit this sup to make sure is was received by those effected by it before they created their business and became accustomed to its income. A persons home is their sanctuary, now more than ever the noise from multiple events each week will definitely effect the people who live in close proximity. Clearly this is passionately opposed by people who actually live here, are invested here and have been for a very long time. That should mean something

The Waiono Road is a Farm Road and too narrow to accommodate Weddings and associated workers. The current road will not permit safe passage of multiple cars without one car pulling onto the unimproved and unsafe shoulder. liability for the road is shared by all Waiono Ranch owners and if all existing property owners do not approve, it is unfair that they should have liability for a neighbor's business. Finally, the roadway is a separate lot, #11. believe the owner of the roadway must agree to the proposed SUV and the potential liability to that lot owner. I do not agree with the proposed SUP. A new Hawaii County approved road must be built to accommodate the proposed use. The current road is not adequate for the existing use as a Farm road. This is Farm Property with AG zoning. Where are we going with this, Does not Zoning and County Regulations mean anything. Is someone going to open a Cocktail Bar Next, can I open a Dance Hall and will my neighbor open a race track.

We all knew what the zoning was when we bought our property in Waiono Ranch. It the County were to grant this SUP, it would set a very bad precedent. And for the Hickey’s to say it would not have any negative impact on the neighboring lots would be ridiculous and untrue. “How could it not”, I was told by a local attorney.

Our family has had two head on accidents on this dangerous road and feel strongly apposed to an increase of traffic from a Wedding venue with drivers unfamiliar with the conditions here.

Private road not good enough to support this kind of added traffic, not to speak of the liabilities that this would incur. I oppose this proposal.

I strongly object to the Hickeys proposal. This is a private road and the owner has not even been asked by this group for permission to do this, or talk about a large liability policy to cover liabilities caused by their activities, weddings and wedding venues in which drinking and such are usually the case at such celebrations. This would be a danger to all residents that use this road for home and farming access. They also seem irresponsible as to the extensive wear this would cause to an already over worn access roadway. This is not a part of their property purchase agreement and how can this be allowed when the owner of this roadway does not agree or give permission to this.
No to special use permit on Waiono!
Preserve waiono as farm land not wedding venue!
