Communication 700 Bill 181 Page 2 of 3 office structure, cone-acre recreation azea, landscaping and archaeological preserve. Construction completion date is approximately 12 to 18 months, initial occupancy projected for fall of 2008. Approximate cost of the project is $30 million. 5. Surrounding properties to the north, east and south are zoned Agricultural 5-acre. The 10-acre pazcel to the west (across Kakahiaka Street extension) is currently being developed by the applicant (Seascape Condominium), proposed Lokahi Mauka and Makai developments are north of the project site, and further north, the Kona Palisades Subdivision. 6. Favorable recommendation of the Planning Director for the State Land Use Boundary Amendment is based upon the following: • The reclassification from the State Land Use Agriculture to the Urban District will not be violative of Section 205-2, Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes, nor be inconsistent with the Land Use Commission Rules, the County General Plan and the Hawaii State Plan. • The reclassification request also conforms to the goals, policies and standards of, among others, the Land Use and Housing Elements of the General Plan, and also the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map, which designates this area for Urban Expansion. • There will be several potential accesses to the project area from Kaiminani Drive: Kakahiaka Street (direct from Kaiminani Drive), a makai route through the Lokahi Kau subdivision (developed by applicant), through a portion of the future Mid-Level Road (Ane Keohokalole Highway) constructed by applicant to connect the lower part of Lokahi Kau subdivision with Kaiminani Drive, and possibly from Kakahiaka Street through mauka portion of Lokahi Subdivision to Kapuahi Street (not a typical route to go to and from Queen Kaahumanu Highway). • The Department of Public Works recommends that a roadway master plan including roadway alignments and connections, in conjunction with an implementation strategy for the K to K Plan roads be adopted prior to further incremental development in the azea. In the absence of such a plan, a recommendation has been made that development plans include extension of and access to Ane Keohokalole Highway (Midlevel Road) by an improved Homestead Road. • County water will be made available through the extension of a County water line within Kakahiaka Street. A Department of Water Supply memo dated April 27, 2007, states that "the water development agreement (referenced as Appendix F) is currently being revised and negotiated between the developer and the department.
