December 27, 2013 at 12:48 pmI am concerned about the water and the number of multifamily homes. Where will the traffic go. I should hope it would not exit out of Kuikahi. With this many multifamily homes the crime rate will soar. More stop lights will be put up. Roundabouts should be used to avoid the traffic pileup. This seems to take a quiet, low crime area and ruin it.
