Kona Community Development Plan Action Committee
The Kona Community Development Plan Action Committee implements and monitors the North and South Kona District Community Development Plan, guiding growth and infrastructure on Hawaii Island's western coast.
What This Committee Does
The Kona Community Development Plan (CDP) Action Committee guides implementation of the Kona District's adopted community development plan, which addresses growth management, transportation, affordable housing, and the preservation of Kona's agricultural and natural character amid rapid development pressure. The committee monitors action item progress, coordinates with county departments, and makes recommendations to advance the CDP's goals. It serves as the community's ongoing voice in shaping West Hawaii's future.
