New Hawaiian Homes Developments Planned On Big Island (March 12, 2024)

[@StyleshStorm]

Too little too late. So many Hawaiian families already priced out of paradise. Big island is the only one left where there's some kind of living left and even then it's getting rough. No more love for ohana.

[@islandgrown90]

if they don't allow you to own the property then its just a waste of time and money from the hawaiian ppl.

[@ryderdonahue]

Yeah it's confounding the way it works currently... since you can't build equity.. how tf they expect the Hawaiian people to build generational wealth. On the other hand, what prevents some developer (Zucc) from just buying out the property from people if it could be sold and then it's out of Hawaiian hands again.

[@Josephine-sm2db]

When you don't own the land,it stays in trust to the people and stops greedy realtors from selling the land to outsiders and causing land prices to escalate.

Need to address the road infrastructure & safety concerns prior to adding more lots in the back of Pana’ewa. Railroad residents already dealing with major speeding problems, with many of these violators are our own DHHL residents coming from the end of Railroad, Māmaki, Auwae, and Elama. Additionally, very little to no lighting except for the stretch on Railroad from Mamaki to the end of the road. These need to be addressed and possible considerations made for alternate roads connecting the 2 sides of Auwae or another further makai into Pana’ewa.

​@@ryderdonahuethe stupidest thing that Hawaii ever did was to allow land to be sold to outsiders. Now look what has happened, locals no can afford to live here and dem transplants keep moving in.

[@lionmanahawaii]

Exactly

[@4x4country_girl69]

This is sad too many Hawaiian families can't afford these homes and even if they can I think they're trying to get them to move over to the big island so they'll forget about Lahaina

[@Josephine-sm2db]

There is a huge bunch of DHHL land just above Wahikuli that was to be developed into many DHHL homes. Looks like Gov G has other plans for it. We better call DHHL on Maui and find out about plans for that land.

[@hawaiianborn1503]

28,000 Hawaiians on the list, im Hawaiian and not on the list because i know ill never get anything anyway

[@darenmccommon1700]

meanwhile, only 287 out of 807 families that lost their property in the 2018 eruption have received compensation

[@JordanKahele]

Aside from that, because the lease is invalid and the title is defective the appropriate thing STATE OF HAWAII should have done is when someone like you, for example, takes out a loan from the bank. What should've happened by design, the STATE OF HAWAII should have recognized that and pay the loan in full, from its own pocket. Which may, or may not have prevented a grand scale larceny from occuring, embezzlement from happening and repetitive extortion by escrow, and also a lot of federal violations with the banks. Finally but not the least, however, is the bayonette constitution and just researching that now it gets, really interesting?

[@Josephine-sm2db]

That was a very strange eruption. I remember the meeting they had at volcano village where they announced that the volcano was gonna be shooting out boulders the size of refrigerators, remember that one? And remember how the flow came to an abrupt halt on the day that RIMPAC ended? I was very shocked to see how the crater had been completely destroyed. I keep wondering if rimpac had something to do with its destruction.

[@closmasmas9080]

I think they should avoid building single use housing and prioritize multi-use development, so that it’s more livable especially for the kupuna that aren’t able to drive or don’t want to drive as much. I feel like we should be building communities and not cookie cutter suburbs where you have your “own backyard”, but not any real privacy. In my opinion it’s better to just build medium density with mixed use built in and open park spaces. People shouldn’t have to drive out of their community to live

[@Josephine-sm2db]

The reason why Hawaiians were provided with land like in Keaukaha, half acre, was so that they could grow their own food. The irony is that Hawaiians were given land full of pohaku, no soil like Hamakua, so it was difficult to grow anything.

[@Josephine-sm2db]

"Multi use", "livable""medium density" "mixed use" while these concepts sound really good and might work well, you need to keep in mind that these smart growth, 15 minute cites that Gov G is pushing for Lahaina is all about controlling your movements and keeping you under constant surveillance. Forcing you to drive EVs so that they can switch you off. And soon, very soon, maybe this year, controlling how you spend your money, going cashless, digital IDs, CBDCs. This is what is already happening in China and thanks to people electing Gov G, it will be in Hawaii very soon.

[@brandonsilva1903]

​​@@Josephine-sm2db you're already in an island 😂 I dont think your movement will be further restricted. It can't.

[@Josephine-sm2db]

@@brandonsilva1903 takes 6 hours to travel around the entire island

[@deannasilva893]

🙄you never own the land?! How can that be a benefit 🤣😢😡& den dey tell you what you can & what you cant do.

[@lionmanahawaii]

This is great except what they should really be doing is selling the houses at an affordable cost including the land and just require it be kept in the family and not resold. That would keep the housing with the native families rather than having the house taken back over by hawaiian homelands simply because the blood quantum of future generations NATURALLY gets less and less as people marry who they love not based on the color or nationality of their skin. For a government that promotes equality hawaiian homelands is really quite a racist approach to handling displaced Hawaiian people who had their land stolen to begin with. Sorry but not sorry.....the State of Hawaii needs to do FAR FAR more for the people who were stolen from when their land was occupied by colonizers and sugar plantation owners who took over.

[@PA96704]

Apartheid by banks 😢

[@nathanrjugoz3360]

Panaewa is already owned by DHHL Building houses now is most logical

[@StyleshStorm]

The haole guy on the council or whatever this is sounds concerned because he must realize people waiting for homes but as usual the people in charge slow.

[@JordanKahele]

I bet he also, realized that Hawaiians on the waiting list took longer than removing article 39, from the 1887 constitution..

[@maybenot267]

That's the consequences of VOTING liberal.

[@JordanKahele]

@@maybenot267 For you're information,, when I started to get more information about this occupation in 2015, it was only than I refused to vote in the occupied territory ..

[@Day-dreamer488]

​@@JordanKaheleoccupied? Occupied by the sugar industry more like it, they are what destroyed hawaii

[@Beck-Stein]

Not sure there is demand for all these homes. I am here now and have not bumped into one native Hawaiian yet.

[@Josephine-sm2db]

Do the applicants still need to be 50% Hawaiian?

[@Josephine-sm2db]

@Outdoor_Hana_Hou 50% Hawn & 25% Hawn so rare now days. But that's what happens when making deals with the US who is a professional land thief.

[@stonew1927]

So let's pave paradise to build suburbia. Honomu and Akaka Falls are ruined by new Hawaiian Homelands development. Over 600 lots abutting Akaka Falls above our town. No consideration for protecting the aina. Supposed to be ag but looking more and more like suburbia. And all those people having to use the only road in and out through our tiny town.

[@Josephine-sm2db]

So where is the dhhl ag land for Kona?

[@dplj4428]

looks like "the projects"

[@canklemedkits3772]

I’m sure it’s legit.
