Moratorium on building houses

Our take

The rapid development in Koloa, particularly the new housing behind Big Save, raises significant concerns about traffic congestion and infrastructure adequacy. With the potential for gridlock and the question of whether our sewer systems can handle increased demand, many locals are worried about the environmental impact, especially regarding untreated sewage in our oceans. Reflecting on San Luis Obispo County's successful moratorium on new construction, it’s worth exploring how Koloa can adopt similar measures to protect our community and environment.

I don't know how Kauai roads are going to run smoothly without gridlock.

Just saw all those new places behind Big Save in Koloa. it's insane! Do we have sewer systems that can handle this? Or is it just going to be untreated sewage dumped into the ocean like they do at Wailua Bay? Smh .

I know years ago in California, San Luis Obispo county did a moratorium on building for a few years ,and it was the smartest thing they ever did. I wonder how that was achieved.? I know Save Koloa is working hard on stopping these builders. mahalo.
