Honorable James Y. Arakakt, Chaznnan and Members of the County Council Page 4 Halepueo Road, a pnvate 12-foot wide gravel road within a 40 feet right of way Access is from Moani Road (also known as Kapoho Beach Road), a Cotinty clop seal road that is paved with an approximate pavement width of 26 feet, then titnung onto Ililant Road, a 15'-3" red cindered pnvate road within a 40-foot nght-of--way The Ililant Road/Halepueo Road intersection is located 3 of a mile from Moani Road In addition, road muntenance fees aze collected to mazntain the extshng pnvate roads As such, the existing gravel roadway is adequate to accommodate the proposed rezoning. Water is presently not available to the subJect property However, according to the Department of Water Supply, water can be made available to the extshng lot of record from an extsttng County waterline on Kapoho Beach Road which is approximately 2,600 feet southwest of the subJect property. To require the applicant to hook up to the County water system would be cost prohibitive and not be a reasonable requirement Especially in light of the fact, that the applicant is aslung for entitlements that would have run with his property when it was onginally approved as a subdivision. Approval of thus request would bung this pazcel in conformance with existing agncultural lots within the Vacahonland Hawaii Subdivision. Therefore, in this particulaz situation, the requirement that county water be available to the pazcel prior to rezoning the subJect pazcel will not be applicable and the applicant will not be required to connect to the County water system Wastewater generated by the proposed development will be disposed of utilizing a septic tank system meting the requirement of the Department of Health There aze no telephone or electrical lines. The Department of Land and Natural Resources-State Historic Preservation Division (DLNR-HPD) recommends that the applicant consult with the Historic Preservation Division, Department of Land and Natural Resources to verify that the property does not contain any azchaeological, cultural or historic sites. However, a site inspection has verified that the property has already been selectively cleared and gravelled Finally, other agencies had no obJecttons or comments to the proposed request Based on the above findings, approval of the change of zone request from Open (O) and Agricultural (A-la) to Family Agricultural (FA-2a) zoned district would result in an appropriate land use pattern that will further benefit the general public For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-8-22, the Puna District Zone Map of the County Zoning Code is transmitted
