<br /> i r~ <br /> Pete Hoffinann, Chairman <br /> and Members of the County Council <br /> Page 2 <br /> Because it is the applicant's statement that the existing home will be used, the <br /> proposed conditions will make this a requirement. The home is an attractive asset in this <br /> area and adjacent properties are all physically developed with residential structures. <br /> In order to consider an azea for any type of zoning designation, the applicable <br /> goals, policies and standards of the General Plan must be adequately addressed. It is only <br /> through such a comprehensive policy analysis approach that evaluations and decisions <br /> can be made to better time and stage developments to achieve growth determined by the <br /> General Plan and related planning documents. The implications of these evaluations and <br /> decisions must be also considered as they may have an impact on similar areas in the <br /> County. <br /> The proposed request for a change of zone from RS-7.5 to CV-7.5 conforms to the <br /> goals, policies and standazds of Land Use (Commercial) and Economic Elements of the <br /> General Plan. The Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map component of the <br /> General Plan is a representation of the document's goals and policies to guide the <br /> coordinated growth and development of the County. It reflects a graphic depiction of the <br /> physical relationship among the various land uses. The requested Village Commercial <br /> zoning is consistent with the Medium Density Urban designation on the LUPAG Map for <br /> this area of Naalehu. Such designation may allow village commercial uses, including <br /> office uses. <br /> Recent commercial rezonings in the area include: <br /> • TMK: 9-5-24: 76 (adjacent property to the east), Ordinance No. 90 131 effective <br /> October 20, 1990 for a change of zone from RS-7.5 to CV-7.5. <br /> • TMK: 9-5-24: 77, Ordinance No. 90 129 effective October 20, 1990 for a change of <br /> zone from RS-7.5 to CV-7.5. <br /> Surrounding uses are a mix of residential and commercial uses and zoned RS-7.5, <br /> CV-7.5 (adjacent property to the east) and CV-10 (across Highway 11). The Ka'u Family <br /> Health Center is located across the highway to the east and zoned CV-10. Naalehu <br /> School is located east of the Kau Family Health Center. Keoki's Cafe and a Union 6 <br /> service station are located to the south across Highway 11. <br /> Access to the property is proposed from Highway 11, a state-owned highway with <br /> an approximately 50-foot right-of--way with a 40-foot wide pavement. There is an <br /> existing roadway easement within the property which gains access to Highway 11. <br /> <br />
