streetlights in Lā'ie on Naniloa Loop. Check out the story below.
We're pleased to announce the Malaekahana bike path groundbreaking on Saturday,

community project that will further link Lā'ie and Kahuku. We'll send more

 Celebrate the next step with us
The groundbreaking for the
Malaekahana bike and pedestrian path has been announced for Saturday, Sept.
11th, at 10 a.m. on Gunstock Ranch Road. The path will further link Lā'ie
and Kahuku, allowing safer and more convenient biking and walking between
communities to go to school, work, or visit family and friends. As part of Envision Lā'ie, workshop participants expressed support for a network
of bike paths connecting destinations and keeping cars off the road. The
8-foot-wide path, nearly a mile and a half long, is a collaboration between
Hawaii Reserves Inc., the Lā'ie Community Association, the Kahuku Community
Association and residents. HRI will provide the land and materials; the
community associations, residents and local businesses will provide the labor. We hope you'll join us for this historic event. Spread the word to your family
and friends. For more info visit our website. |

Solar Streetlights Tested in Lā'ie

 Lights look promising
Hawaii Reserves has been
exploring ways to create a more sustainable community, including renewable
energy solutions. As a result, a
demonstration solar light pole is being tested on Naniloa Loop. The 25-foot light pole is powered by a
solar panel and is remotely computer monitored. The self-sufficient
lights have shown initial promise as a good way to reduce our dependence on
fossil fuel. Read a recent story about
the lights in
