honorable Leningrad Elarionof[; Chair <br /> and Members of the Committee on Planning <br /> HAWAII COUNTY COUNCIL <br /> Pagc 10 <br /> June 14, 2004 <br /> Other Issues <br /> Draft 2 (at p. 5) states that the Council will decide whether firture ten-year comprehensive <br /> reviews of the Ueneral Plan should be done. These are mandatory under current law, and <br /> should remain mandatory. The ten-year review forces a periodic evaluation of land use. <br /> Otherwise, decisions are only made on arezoning-by-rezoning basis, without re- <br /> examining the overall framework. <br /> A "Puna Makai" Minor resort (up to 500 rooms) is listed on p. 47, but no location is <br /> mapped. <br /> I am not sure of the reason for eliminating the acreage requirement for a major or <br /> intermediate resort: there should be a large area for a resort of this size, and all listed <br /> major or intermediate resorts meet the current acreage requirement. <br /> I will be happy to discuss these issues and any others that the Council may wish to <br /> <br /> ~__J consider at the June 14 and 15 workshops. <br /> Sincerely,-, <br /> i <br /> CHRISTOPHER J.
