SUBHEAD: As often happens, just when you think you have secured access to a public resource, somebody thinks of another way to screw it up.

We thought we had been saved when Lorna A. Nishimitsu, of the lawfirm representing paradise Ranch wrote the new Chair of the BLNR, Mr. William J. Aila, Jr.
It's all on the determination of the law firm in determining of where the Agricultural Zone ends and the Conservation District begins. The "victorty" was all smoke. Laymon brushhogged dunes two weeks ago (before the surrender of permit). Pig hunters were shooting this weekend towards the beach. Beach goers were discussing caliber size not wave height. Scary.
Paradise Ranch began installing fenceposts in the middle of the ancient coastal Alaloa on 1/19/11, as part of their cattle pasture expansion project, after surrendering their CDUP for fencing in the Conservation District.Right in the middle of the historc trail.
Many mistakenly believed that Paradise Ranch’s plans for the makai portion were over. Not so. They merely pulled their Conservation District permit and then interpreted where the Conservation District begins and the Ag Zone ends.
Conservation Districts were designed to protect resources. Owners of large properties, like Waoli Corporation, should honor those resources by trying to preserve them, not encouraging and enabling commercial cattle pasture expansion in native coastal plant commutes hosting endangered species.
Write Acting Planning Director Michael Daligdig (as Planning does not let public know email address of its director), or email the Mayor and County Clerk requesting immediate revocation of the paradise Ranch SMA permit.
