A huge number of new units planned for Kauai
Waikiki today: Is this the future of Poipu on the southside of Kauai?
Here's the link to a very important article that made the cover of the Sept. 2005 HawaiiBusiness Magazine titled: Kauai in Crisis by Jacy Youn.
http://www.hawaiibusiness.com/currentissue.aspx
It discusses Kauai's strained infrastructure, the excessive number of new visitor andresidential units approved for the next 20 years, how this happened and possible solutions.
Below is a portion of a list of the proposed development projects from the article. These projects are already approved for development; most are within the next 5 years. Please share this information -- it's about Kauai's future.
