A group of community leaders on the Hawaii island of Kauai wants to stop redevelopment of the decaying Coco Palms Resort in Wailua.
The Coco Palms Resort was damaged in a 1992 hurricane and has been sitting unrepaired since then. A group of community leaders is working to buy the property to turn it into a public park and cultural center.
“This is one of the most cultural historic religious sites in all of ancient Hawaii,” said Teresa Tico, a local attorney who is part of the effort to return the property to the public. “There are ancient heiau, fishponds, burial grounds. It’s a historic site that should be preserved and protected. What’s more, we don’t have the infrastructure on this island. This island is bursting at the seams. The worst traffic on this island is in front of the Coco Palms.
It’s a drop in the bucket, but Gary Hooser, former Hawaii state Senate majority leader, said it’s a start. Hooser said the group also recently met with the developers, and they are “increasingly aware that this property is going to be extremely difficult to develop into a hotel, both due to the location with the traffic and also due to the community climate.”
