They have driven most of the local people out of the State because of the cost of living. Rents are so high many have to double up, but that even doesn't work now. There needs to be rent control. The rents in Coconut Grove are more like Kahala. Please introduce a law to help renters. There isn't even a tax break like in other States for renters. All the breaks are for the wealthy.... Everyone seems to have 3-4 home that are day rentals in Kailua. This is not the Aloha state any more. If it's just for the rich, as it looks, then announce it and stop people moving here. There isn't room for any more regular families. Even with all the kids working, like is hard. No Locals, no local spirit. You can see it everywhere. Cut you off, close doors in your face, rude , not the Hawaiian way .
I know you are a local and must see what is happening. If we don't do something or say something, nothing will be done. I put my trust in you.
