West Kauai Community Plan Discussion Draft Available online for public
review; Open House events to commence on Sept. 5, 2019
The County of Kauai Planning Department has released a "Discussion Draft' of the
West Kauai Community Plan for public review and comment. The West Kauai Community Plan
updates the previous Hanapepe- `Ele`ele Development Plan (1974) and the Waimea- Kekaha
Development Plan (1978) to provide guidance on land use and investment priorities for the
Westside. The "Discussion Draft' was informed by a participatory process including multiple
outreach events, such as design workshops, open house events, and small group meetings.
The Discussion Draft comment period closes on Monday, Oct. 7, 2019.
Comments may be submitted at upcoming open house events or online at
www.westkauaiplan.org, where the draft is available for download. Emailed comments may be
submitted to plankauai(cDkauai.gov. An online "Story Map" that summarizes the draft plan is
available online at www.westkauaiplan.org.
