Aaron S.Y. Chung, Council Chair and Members of the County Council County of Hawaii Page 2 One (1) 4.299 -acre lot situated on the western side of the subject parcel for a proposed affordable housing development to include 36 "units" in seven (7) quad-plex and four (4) duplex buildings. According to the applicant, 60% to 80% of the units will be affordable to households with incomes at or below 140% of the median income. Three (3) lots situated on the eastern side of the subject property totaling 5.971 acres which are slated for commercial development, including the possible future development of a hardware store. Five (5) commercial lots situated on the southern side of the subject property, each with a minimum land area of approximately 12,840 square feet (total 1.437 acres) to be sold to various commercial developers; and One (1) road lot, consisting of an entrance to Waikoloa Road, a cul-de-sac, and access road to the largest (residential) lot. Tentative plans call for securing subdivision approval by the end of 2020. Thereafter, the applicant will construct the necessary improvements within the subdivision. The estimated timeframe to complete the infrastructure improvements and obtain final subdivision approval is approximately 24 months. The estimated cost of improvements for this proposed project is $4001000. Based on Chapter 28 of the Hawaii County Code and Planning Commission Rule 13, the approval for the reclassification of the State Land Use District Boundary Amendment requires that the proposed reclassification conforms to the applicable goals, policies, standards, and courses of action of the General Plan and implementing ordinances, plans and documents. No amendment shall be approved unless it conforms to the General Plan. However, a proposed amendment may be combined with a request to amend the General Plan. The request to reclassify the property to the State Land Use Urban District would be inconsistent with the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) map for this area, which is designated as Open and Rural. The Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map component of the General Plan (GP) is a representation of the document's goals and policies to guide the coordinated growth and development of the County. The LUPAG map reflects a graphic depiction of the physical relationship among the various land uses and establishes the basic urban and non -urban form for areas within the County. This proposed request to reclassify the district boundary from Agricultural to Urban, along with the change the zoning of the subject parcel to CV -10, does not conform with the General Plan LUPAG map which designates most of the property as open (o) and a smaller portion as rural (rur).
