The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-10-12

the improvements authorized and proA
vided for in the following items of Act
VI of the Extra Session of the legisla
ture of 1905, approved by yourself May
49, 1905, and petition your EXcellency
that they may he at once carried out:
Completion Palolo Road, $4,000; Wal
Iupe, Pukele and Waiomao Homestead
Roads, $4,000"
We would respectfully call your at
tention to the fact that with the eX-
ception of the uncompleted Palolo road
and certain other roads built by private
funds, Palolo Valley is without roads.
The items of appropriation called to
your attention are not for the recon-
struction or repair of roads already
built, but for tie construction of roads
where there have never been any be-
fore, and without which the valley
cannot be developed. We are asking
simply that there shall be done for Pa
lolo Valley what was done twenty or
more years ago for each of the other
valleys extending out from Honolulu
Kalihi, Nuuanu, Pauoa and Manoa.
A large part of PalOlo Valley has
been recently opened up for settlement
under various provisions of the land
law, all requiring actual residence and
improvement of the land taken up.
Without roads these conditions cannot
! be complied with. The Legislature APP
propriated, and your Excellency APP
proved the appropriations, for these
necessary roads. Hence we submit
| that good faith to those who have I'M
dertaken the Improvement of land in
! the valley on the assurance of roads by
these appropriations and your APP
prevail of them, requires that they be
| built.
AS showing the good faith of those
who have taken up homesteads, it
may be stated that in order to begin
! the Improvement of their hOmesteads,
! they at their own expence, before the
appropriation by the Legislature could
! become available, built more than a
mile of dirt road from the end of the
uncompleted Palolo Road to and
through the Waiomao Homesteads
| This road except for a short stretch is
built along the line of the road APP
propriated for, and the work done will
be utilized in the construction of that
road. But while it answered the pur-
pose for which it was built, it is not
in any degree suited to the conditions
of climate and soil for a permanent
road.
We would further respectfully re-
present that a large amount of money
has already been spent in building
operations, and the clearing and i'm.
proving of land in the Homesteads anC
elsewhere in Palolo Valley i'm the be
( lief that the necessary roads appro.
priated for by the legislature would be
promptly constructed.
In no other part of Honolulu is Their,
such active development of homes OF
the land as there is i'm Palolo Valley
and It is believed that nowhere will
the construction of roads so quickly re
suit i'm large increase of taxable values
as viii the construction of the roads
authorized by the appropriations here
; in called to your attention, and which
your petitioners pray may be speedil,
/ constructed.
{ I'm this connection also, your petit
TONERS represent that without thes
} roads it is impossible for the children
! of the valley TO attend school, and tn
: need of a school house i'm the valley i
: very pressing Land for a schoo
house has been offered free if a school
2 house is built and a school maintain
