Community groups blast city leaders for the move

"Despite overwhelming opposition, the city and county has chosen to ignore the voices of the people and is allowing an outdated development plan to proceed unchecked," said Kevin Kelly, a Kahuku resident and member of the Defend Oahu Coalition.

The coalition is planning another campaign of sign-waving along Kamehameha Highway this weekend, along with candlelight vigils in front of Honolulu Hale and the resort later this month.

With the tentative approval in hand, Kuilima has a year to comply with the city's remaining concerns and recommendations before getting final approval. That deadline could be extended anywhere from two to six months.
