We need your input! 

 

Dear Resident, 

The City and County of Honolulu is building a rail transit line from East Kapolei to Ala Moana to provide transportation alternatives and help residents travel more efficiently.  Three stations are being planned near you at Pearl Harbor (Radford Drive), Honolulu International Airport, and Lagoon Drive.  The approximate locations are shown on the map below.   

Your home is located near at least one of these stations, and we would really like to hear from you as we begin to make plans to guide future development and public investment around the stations.  For the purpose of this survey, please consider your neighborhood to be the area around your home and the nearest station.   

To complete this survey, we would like you to select a household member randomly.  To do so, please have the adult (anyone 18 years or older) in your household who most recently had a birthday complete this survey.  The year of birth of the adult does not matter.  Please spend a few minutes answering all the questions in this survey, and return it in the enclosed postage‐paid envelope.  Your responses will remain completely anonymous.  

Your participation in this survey is very important.  You will help shape the future of the Airport/Salt Lake/Mapunapuna neighborhood for generations to come! 

If you have any questions about this survey, please call our staff member, Renee Espiau, at (808) 768‐8050.  We also encourage you to sign up to receive project news and event information at www.todhonolulu.org.  

Thank you for your time and participation. 

Sincerely,  

 George I. Atta, FAICP, Director Department of Planning and Permitting City and County of Honolulu
