i Waiakea Houselots area. The top of your screen is heading in the Hamakua direction, and the bottom is in the Ka`u direction. You have this district area before you(clearing of throat, excuse me) that applies to an area that has various commercial uses as well as residential uses that span around the subject property and that we will be discussing today. The applicant is requesting a change of zone to reclassify the subject property from a Single- Family Residential-10,000 square feet also known as RS-10 to a General Commercial-7,500 square feet. The applicants stated reasons for the request is to formalize the existing commercial use of the property as general office space for the landowner's lessee, the State of Hawaii and to allow for additional future land uses that are permitted within the CG district. The existing dwelling that is located on the subject property is currently being leased to the State of Hawaii Judiciary Branch for general office use for the Children's Advocacy Program and its related activities.

Any provisions from the May 1990 request would also require a re-evaluation. So, on June thirteenth (13t), 1990 the Planning Department issued plan approval to the landowners and shortly after the plan approval was given the landowners came in and got the appropriate building permits to convert the existing dwelling to the office space that it's currently being used as.
