YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A developer is looking to build a 93-home development where the now-shuttered St. Francis School sits in Manoa, as reporter Stewart Yerton told Hawaii News Now Sunrise.

Fire risk is now top of mind for many in the neighborhood following a recent Attorney General’s report on the Lahaina fires, which highlighted the risks of having a crowded, older neighborhood at the edge of wild lands. Opponents also worry about traffic, replacing a school with a profit-making venture and the possibility of Native Hawaiian historic sites.

The Manoa Neighborhood Board has already passed a resolution opposing the project, and the city will hold a public hearing next month. Can the developer assuage public concerns?
