Seniors evicted for new Kauai, Hawaii development

Wednesday, January 18th, 2012,
By Associated Press
Eight homes at a former Kauai sugar plantation are being threatened with demolition to make way for a 50-unit development. Landowner Grove Farms has issued eviction notices to 13 tenants to vacate by March 8.

It's reported that while Grove Farms officials plan to give camp tenants priority to buy the homes, most are senior citizens who can't qualify for mortgages. Prices at the Waihohonu development will range from $260,000 to $485,000.

Koloa Camp was part of the first sugar plantation in Hawaii. It was established in July 1835. Some of the structures are a century old. Rents now range from $600 to $1,000 a month.

Some residents say the camp represents a simpler time and that the development will wipe out the town's historic foundation.
