Kula Ridge Hearing

The state Land Use Commission will hold a site inspection and meetings on Maui this week to review a proposed land reclassification for the Kula Ridge project.

The commission will gather at 9:30 a.m. Thursday at the Kula Community Center and tennis courts for the site inspection.

Commissioners will then hold a hearing on the proposal at 1:30 p.m. in the Haleakala Room of the Makena Beach & Golf Resort, to continue at 9 a.m. the next day.

The developer is proposing to reclassify 34.5 acres from the agriculture to the urban district, and another 16.5 acres from agriculture to rural.
