Heather Kimball, Council Chair <br />and Members of the County Council <br />Juno 28, 2024 <br />Page 3 <br />Immediately surrounding properties are almost entirely zoned Single -Family <br />Residential-10,000 square feet (RS-10), with residential uses. An adjacent property to the <br />northeast is zoned Multiple -Family Residential-4,000 square feet (RM-4) and developed <br />with a duplex. Given the preceding, reverting to the RS zoning district will be consistent <br />with surrounding land uses and zoning. <br />All infrastructure, which consists of roadway access, water, wastewater, solid <br />Waste, and utilities and services, are adequate to support the RS-10 zoning district. <br />Lastly, although the recommendation to repeal Ordinance No. 12-132 will <br />extinguish any conditions related to the RM-3 zoning, it is made with the understanding <br />that the landowners remain responsible for developing the parcel in compliance with all <br />other applicable governmental requirements in connection with the Single -Family <br />Residential (RS) zoning district prior to its commencement or establishment upon the <br />subject property. Additional governmental requirements may include the issuance of <br />building permits, compliance with County Streets, Water, Sewer and Fire Code, <br />installation of improvements required by the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), <br />among others. Compliance with all applicable governmental requirements is a condition <br />of this approval; failure to comply with such requirements will be considered a <br />violation that may result in enforcement action by the Planning Department and/or the <br />affected agencies. <br />Based on the preceding findings, a favorable recommendation of the Planning Director's <br />initiated action to repeal Change of Zone Ordinance No. 12-132 and reclassify lands from <br />Multiple -Family Residential-3,000 square feet (RM-3) to Single -Family Residential-10,000 <br />square feet (RS-10) would result in an appropriate land use pattern and would be in the best <br />interest of the general public. <br />The accompanying draft bill to amend Section 25-8-33 (City of Hilo Zone Map), Article <br />8, Chapter 25 (Zoning Code) of the Hawaii County Code, is provided for your favorable <br />consideration. Please note as this draft ordinance repeals Ordinance No. 12-132 and reverts the <br />subject property back to its original RS-10 zoning district, there are no proposed conditions to be <br />attached to this draft bill. <br />The Planning Department's background report, recommendation report, and PowerPoint <br />presentation are available for review at the following Laserfiche WebLink address: <br />littps://records.hawaiicounty_gov/WebLink/l/fol/135474/Row 1.aspx <br />
