text: There are a 1000 acres virtually across the road from Ranchos (Mauka). That are for sale for a thousand dollars and acre. All one piece, old lava flow, unusable for anything else, and south facing. That could easily be tied to the grid (power lines right there). Why don't they do something like that, keep it centralized in stead of chopping it up. Come on HELCO use some of those profits.
