Good morning, everyone, aloha. We will begin our slide presentation with the location map. The subject one-acre parcel is located in the South Hilo district of Hawaii island in the Waiakea Homestead Houselots area and it is indicated outlined in red in the middle. The Planning Director's request. The Planning Director is initiating a request to repeal Ordinance No.17 7 in response to a written request dated December 29, 2021 submitted by the landowners Robert S. and Carol Oshiro. The repeal would revert the zoning of the one-acre parcel to its original RS-10 zoning designation from the current CN-10 zoning designation. The landowners originally changed the parcel zoning to develop a restaurant. However, due to the recent Covid-19 pandemic, many of the businesses and people who have been supporting the landowners in pursuing their restaurant business are no longer in business or have lost their jobs. Further, it has been approximately five (5) years since the landowners started the project and due to their age, they can no longer pursue the restaurant development. Therefore, they are requesting that the Change of Zone Ordinance No. 17 7 be repealed, and the zoning district reverted to its original Single-Family Residential (RS-10). Here is the County zoning map. The subject parcel is zoned Neighborhood Commercial-10,000 square feet. Directly adjacent to the north and across Kilauea to the west. Excuse me one second. Sorry, to the west we have similar residential zoning with the primary single-family residential use. Adjacent to the south and east are zoned Neighborhood Commercial-10,000 square feet consisting of a parking lot. To the south and the Puainako Town Center commercial area to the east.
