A group of citizens today called for the city to withhold an infrastructure permit for the proposed Turtle Bay Resort expansion until further studies can be done to locate possible burial sites on the property.The Rev. Bob Nakata, a board member with the Defend O'ahu Coalition, said historical information about the site shows that there are burial grounds there.
At a news conference today, the coalition said it wants to meet with Mayor Mufi Hannemann and the resort owners to discuss the future of the area.
