The Biden's can help with that.

Lobbyist bought tropical land from Biden’s brother Scott Green, a lobbyist with close ties to Joe Biden, purchased Virgin Islands property from James Biden and then extended him a private mortgage.

Salt Island, a small island in the harbor of Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, USVI. A mini Whitewater thing.

Some celebrity who wants the land will schmooze the guy and he’ll fold like a piece of paper.

It’s illegal for the government to interfere. They have no such power...the power is with the owners.

The land will be bought up....just like Rockefeller (secretly until he got caught) bought up the sleepy Town of Williamsburg Va...and turned it into a perpetual money machine.

I see Obama and Oprah in the future of this Town.

You’re right, but the governor wants the land for the state. Maybe he’ll condemn the properties, zoning violations.

Maybe a politician.

” Hawaii’s governor (Joshua Green-Democrat) vowed “to keep the land in local people’s hands”

Translation:
As soon as the Billionaire Developers make the proper ‘contributions’, they become ‘the people’.

Then he’ll claim that because the state consists of the people, therefore the land is in the hands of the people.

Every single member of the WEF should be abandoned in a remote desert with no food or water!

He said the other day that he was going to grab that land for the State and then allow the Hawaiians to rent it.

If the owners were under or uninsured, they’ve got zero power.

Plus, they’re still paying property taxes on those properties.

And the state committed mass murder for a reason.

Rebuilding to new codes will be enough to tank some projects. Then insuring your building to reopen will also crush many unless they had loss of business insurance.

And then the state will sell the land to the billionaires and “invest” (waste) the money “for the benefit of the people”.
