RFF. 546-6400 T0:808 961 8912 P.003~004 <br /> requirements: "...(c) will enhance Hawaii County's signiScant natural, visual, <br /> recreation, historic and/or cultural qualities, (d) will protect and enhance the <br /> attractiveness of Hawaii County to make it a better place to live, work, visit, sect <br /> play; (e) will improve Hawaii County's economic vitality by enhancing and <br /> protecting our unique natural, visual, historic, cultural, and recreational resources..." <br /> Although the general Intent of this criteria is honorable; it is also very <br /> subjective. Specific criteria is needed to identify a true SCOD and those areas <br /> that will qualify as one. <br /> 2. "Section 2s-6-62. Minimum corridor length."

In a case where the conditions and standards <br /> contained in the CMP for the SCOD and in the Overlay District Enabling Ordinance <br /> differ fom those within the underlying zone, the Overlay District conditions and <br /> standards shall apply." <br /> Language Is ambiguous as to whether existing zoning (and requirements for <br /> existing applicants) will change as a result of a SCOD designation. <br /> 4. "Section 25-6-66. Review and approval of appltcadon." No date of oomplianca <br /> for owners and lessees affected by 5COD designation noted. <br /> 5.
