<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Stacy Higa, Chairman <br /> and Members of the County Council <br /> Page 8 <br /> <br /> • The valued cultural, historical, and natural resources found in the rezoning area: <br /> According to the applicant, there are no valued cultural, historical and natural <br /> resources found in the rezoning area. The property was previously used for sugar <br /> cane. <br /> <br /> • Possible adverse effect or impairment of valued resources: Given the scope of <br /> work previously conducted, no known rare, threatened, or endangered species are <br /> known to inhabit the parcel or are expected to be discovered on the site. <br /> <br /> • Feasible actions to protect native Hawaiian rights: According to the applicant, no <br /> gathering is taking place on the site. Thus, to the extent to which traditional and <br /> customary native Hawaiian rights are exercised, the proposed action will not <br /> affect traditional Hawaiian rights; therefore, no action is necessary to protect these <br /> rights. <br /> <br /> Based on the above findings, the approval of the Change of Zone request from an <br /> Agricultural 20-acre (A-20a) and Single-Family Residential 15,000 square feet (RS-15) to <br /> a Residential and Agricultural 1-acre (RA-1a) zoned district would result in an <br /> appropriate land use pattern that will further benefit the public. <br /> <br /> For your favorable consideration, amendments to the SLU Boundaries Maps and Section 25-8-34 <br /> (Papaikou-Onomea Zone Map) of Chapter 25, Zoning Code, of the Hawaii County Code 1983 <br /> (2005 Edition), are transmitted. <br /> <br /> We are enclosing a copies of the staff background and recommendation for your information. <br /> <br /> <br /> Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br /> o cda, Chairman <br /> Planning Commission <br /> Lplantmason02PC <br /> Enclosures <br /> cc: Mr. Sidney Fuke <br /> Plant-Mason Family Trust <br /> Department of Water Supply <br /> Department of Public Works <br /> Rodney Haraga/DOT-Highways,Honolulu <br /> State Land Use Commission <br /> DLNR-HPD/Kona <br />
