Koʻolau Poko Sustainable Communities Plan

"Koʻolau Poko encompasses the windward coastal and valley areas from Makapuʻu Point to Kaʻōʻio Point at the northern end of Kaneohe Bay, and is bound by the Koʻolau mountain range and the sea. Ko‘olau Poko includes the communities of Waiāhole, Waikane, Kahaluʻu, Heʻeia, Waimānalo, Āhuimanu, Kaneʻohe, and Kaliua. Ko‘olau Poko's natural, cultural, historic, agricultural, and aquacultural/fishpond resources are protected and enhanced. Significant scenic views of ridges, upper valley slopes, shoreline areas from major public parks highways, coastal waters and hiking trails are protected. Access to shoreline areas and mountainous regions are improved and provided for all to use and enjoy. Cultural and historical resources are preserved through the protection of visual landmarks and significant views, protected access rights relating to traditional cultural practices, and the protection of significant historic, cultural, and archaeological features. Ko‘olau Poko contains productive and potentially productive agricultural lands that are preserved by adopted protective regulatory policies and implemented incentives and programs that promote active agricultural use of these lands.
