k -0 The Honorable Dr. Holeka Goro Inaba and Members of the County Council County of Hawaii September 15, 2025 Page 4 The proposed affordable housing project will be developed in accordance with the Zoning Code, other County Codes, and conditions of the pertinent rezone ordinances as is evidenced by the applicant's receipt of approved construction plans and building permits that ensure such compliance. In addition, the proposed amendment meets the concurrency requirements of the Zoning Code which addresses traffic, potable water, and Civil Defense requirements. The request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to Coastal Zone Management. The project site is located approximately lh mile from the nearest shoreline and is not situated within the SMA. Previous flora and fauna surveys listed no threatened, or endangered plant, mammalian or avian species were found on the properties. A 2006 Archaeological Inventory Survey and September 2020 Archaeological Field Inspection determined the only historic or cultural resource on the property is SHPD Site 25547, which SHPD confirmed requires no further work or preservation. Lastly, this recommendation is made with the understanding that the applicant remains responsible for complying with all other applicable governmental requirements in connection with the proposed use, prior to its commencement or establishment upon the subject properties. Additional governmental requirements may include the issuance of building permits, compliance with the Fire Code, installation of improvements required by the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), among many others. Compliance with all applicable governmental requirements is a condition of this approval; failure to comply with such requirements will be considered a violation that may result in enforcement action by the Planning Department and/or the affected agencies. Based on the preceding findings, the Planning Director recommends a favorable recommendation for a 5-year time extension to Condition D be forwarded to the County Council. The accompanying draft bill to amend Ordinance No. 21 17 is provided for your consideration. Please note the proposed conditions of approval attached to the draft bill, including updates to conditions that have been complied with and to reflect current standard condition language. Material to be deleted is bracketed and struck through; new material is underscored. This recommendation does not, however, sanction the specific plans submitted with the application as they may be subject to change given specific code and regulatory requirements of the affected agencies.
