The project area is located between Queen Ka'ahumanu <br /> Highway and Kuakini Highway, north of the existing Kona Industrial Subdivision and east of the <br /> Old Airport State Park, Keahuolu, North Kona, Hawaii. <br /> The Commission concurs with the following Planning Director's reasons for recommending <br /> favorable consideration of the change of zone: <br /> In order to consider an area for any type of zoning designation, the applicable <br /> goals, policies and standards of the General Plan must be adequately addressed. It is only <br /> through such a comprehensive policy analysis approach that evaluations and decisions <br /> can be made to better time and stage developments to achieve growth determined by the <br /> General Plan and related planning documents. The implications of these evaluations and <br /> decisions must be also considered as they may have an impact on similar areas in the <br /> County. <br /> <br />
