I want to write about the possibility of co-housing in Hilo. I think it would be the easier of the movements listed to get going in Hilo. We could easily start canvassing residents in neighborhoods in Hilo to gain popularity and support for a co-housing project. We could get an election to change a neighborhood through its association and regulating bodies with residents demanding it. Once we get people on board and a view of agreement established we would then be able to modify the rules for a neighborhood to serve a co-housing movement. We need to get people to support whatever movement we choose to do or nothing will ever work. We could use the benefits of others doing so to gain creditability and sway views. People are the reason for anything happening and what drives a movement. People will do what they think is right and if the movement for a co-housing is not presented In a way that appeals to everyone in some way we will have hard times doing anything. Hilo has a huge potential to make changes for itself if it is aware they can and should. Communication channels of all types will be needed to get it going. We could use the local and state news corporations, newspapers, internet, schools, colleges and public hearings. Together we could do it we just need time and resources and maybe a little bit of donations and support financially, but we could do it!
