Maile David, Council Chair and Members of the County Council County of Hawai`i January 09, 2022 Page 9 proposed resort related development planned for the project area should complement the uses in the surrounding community. The development could have the potential to adversely affect surrounding properties if mitigation measures were not required. However, several conditions of approval will mitigate adverse impacts of the project related to noise, air quality(dust), and drainage. For example, the applicant will prepare a drainage study, aquire the necessary permits, and construct necessary improvements in order to contain all development-generated runoff on-site and all earthwork(grubbing and grading) shall be conducted in accordance with applicable County Code. The applicant is required to comply with various State Department of Health standards by controlling dust during construction and reducing the effect of construction equipment noise. Additionally, the Planning Department's landscaping requirements will further minimize the effect of lighting,noise, odors, and dust by providing buffers along the project site perimeter, as required. The PD will be developed with all essential utilities and services. Conditions of approval will require any development to secure potable water from the private Waikoloa Water System and connect to the private sewer system. As represented by the applicant on-site wastewater will be treated to an R-1 water quality standard at the Waikoloa Beach Resort Water Wastewater Treatment Plant to be used to irrigate the remaining golf courses. Irrigation water for the other landscaped areas in the PD will be supplied by a new brackish water well and irrigation system being developed as part of the overall Kumu Hou project. Access to the proposed 900 multi-family timeshare units and community center/commercial facilities is conceptually planned from two (2)points on Waikoloa Beach Drive(North) that link to an internal road. The first access point would be approximately 1,100 feet makai of the northernmost intersection of Waikoloa Beach Drive (North) and Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway which is a signalized intersection. The second access point would be approximately 4,400 feet makai of that, or approximately 400 feet mauka of the intersection of Waikoloa Beach Drive (North) and Ala Ihi Way. Access to the proposed parks, golf facilities, and operational facilities is conceptually planned from Ala Ahi way at its intersection with Waikoloa Beach Drive (South). Despite recommendations made by the Traffic Impact Report and as conceptually represented in the Kumu Hou Master Plan to develop the main internal road with sidewalk facilities, the applicant clarified their intent to develop roadway infrastructure to the Resort Standards in the Subdivision Code, with the option to add sidewalks.
