<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Honorable Stacy K. Higa, Chair <br /> and Members of the County Council <br /> Hawaii County Council <br /> Page 3 <br /> June 1, 2006 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> • Implemented a regular practice for referring subdivisions to the State Historic <br /> Preservation Division, so that historic sites could be protected. <br /> <br /> • Changed the use of roadway easements so that they did not violate the intent of <br /> the setback laws. <br /> <br /> • Implemented state laws requiring that there not be covenants against agriculture. <br /> <br /> These reforms all increased the work necessary to process subdivisions, but they were <br /> important for the welfare of the community. Bill 246 is important so that work time can <br /> be spent productively, not on repetitious review of old applications. <br /> <br /> Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> CHRISTOPHER J. X'IOEN <br /> Planning Director <br /> <br /> CJY:pak <br /> Wpwin60/Chris2/Chair Higa - Bill 246 - Subdivision Code Cover Letter <br /> Attachment <br /> <br /> cc: Corporation Counsel <br />
