Arakaki, Chairman and Members of the County Council County of Hawaii 25 Aupuni Street Hilo, HI 96720 Dear Chairman Arakaki and Members: Change of Zone Ordinance No. 96-9 (REZ 813) Applicant: Scott & Susan Nakahara Request: Amendment to Condition F (Roadway Improvements) Tax Man Key; 4-3-3:31 The Planning Commission, after a duly held public hearing on November 13, 1997, voted to recommend for your approval the proposed legislative bill to amend Condition F (roadway improvements) of Ordinance No. 96 9, which reclassified approximately 14.913 acres of land from an Agricultural (A-40a) to Agricultural (A-la) zoned district. The property is located between the Mamalahoa Highway and the Old Main Road, north of Paauilo Village at Hauola, Opihilala, Hamakua, Hawaii. The Commission concurs with the following Planning Director's reasons for recommending favorable consideration of the request: The purpose of this request is to amend Condition F in the ordinance which relates to roadway improvements, as the applicant has revised their access plans for the development. The subject property is located immediately on the Honokaa side of Paauilo Village. Access to [he property is from Hauola Road and Pohakea Road which are County maintained roadways. Hauola Road has a 50-foot wide right-of-way with 18-foot wide pavement and grass shoulders. Pohakea Road also has a 50-foot wide right-of-way with 16-foot wide pavement and grass shoulders. Both roads are presently Honorable James Y. Arakaki, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 2 in substandard or poor condition and accommodate present traffic in the area as well as to the solid waste transfer station which is located on the north or Honokaa side of Waipunahina Gulch. They will also accommodate any anticipated traffic from the proposed subdivision. The original request to change the district zoning designation for the subject property was approved by the County Council effective February 23, 1996. Subdivision plans for Increment I were submitted to the Planning Director on January 15, 1997. For Increment I, the applicants propose to develop the property into seven one-acre lots, based on the number of water commitments available to the property. The applicants have explained that in the process of developing their plans for Increment I, they encountered design issues which required them to provide access to the lots from Pohakea Road instead of Hauola Road, as originally planned. In order to implement these changes, applicable revisions are required to Ordinance No. 96-9, since conditions of the ordinance require roadway improvements for Hauola Road. As the applicants now propose access off of Pohakea Road, applicable resurfacing and roadway improvements would be required for Pohakea Road in conjunction with final subdivision approval of Increment I. Improvements to Hauola Road would be delayed until the development of Increment II. Therefore, amendments to the conditions reflect these changes, as well as assuring that the improvements are completed meeting with the requirements of the Departments of Transportation and Public Works. Clarification is also added in to require that remnant improvements to the intersection shall be dedicated to [he County of Hawaii. Amendments to Condition G are also proposed as improvements to Hauola Road are not required for the development of Increment I and will be delayed until Increment II. The Planning Commission also included new wording to ensure adequate site distances are available from the Pohakea/Hauola road intersection and that the right-of-way along Hauola Road be kept clear. Comments received from the Department of Public Works and the State Department of Transportation have been considered in the rewording of the new conditions. According to the Department of Water Supply, water is available to support a maximum of seven units and the water commitment deposit has been paid. Based on the above findings, the proposed amendments are not contrary to the original reasons for approving the Change of Zone. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-97, the Hamakua District Homesteads Area Zone Map, of the County Zoning Code is transmitted. i' Honorable James Y. Arakaki, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 3 We are enclosing a copy of the application and a copy of the staff background for your information. Sincerely, Kevin M.
