Pete Hoffmann, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 corner radius at the intersection. Additionally, the applicant will be required to provide improvements to the entire frontage along Lanikaula Street and Hinano Street, consisting of, but not limited to, pavement widening with concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk, drainage improvements, and any required utility relocation. County water is available to the site. The project will connect to the County sewer system. Solid waste will be handled by commercial haulers. Electricity and telephone services are available to the site. The property has no severe geological or topographical problems which cannot be rectified or which would render the land unusable. The project site is located within Zone "X", area determined to be outside the 500-year floodplain. All development generated storm run-off shall be disposed of on-site and not allowed onto adjacent properties or roadways. The subject request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to Coastal Zone Management. The project site is not located in the Special Management Area. The property is located approximately two miles from the shoreline and will not be impacted by coastal hazard and beach erosion. There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountain azeas that traverses the property. No valued cultural, historical or natural resources exist on the property and there is no evidence of any traditional and customary Native Hawaiian rights being practiced on the site. Thus, it is not anticipated that the proposed request will have any adverse impact on cultural or historical resources in the area. Therefore, no action is necessary to protect these rights. Based on the above findings, approval of this change of zone request from Single-Family Residential 10,000 squaze feet (RS-10) to Industrial-Commercial Mixed 20,000 square feet (MCX-20) would result in an appropriate land use pattern that will further benefit the general public. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-8-33 (City of Hilo Zone Map), of the County Zoning Code is transmitted.
