Honorable James Y. Arakaki, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 Volcano Highway. As the applicant would need to pave E. Kipimana Road, which is private, they have submitted letters from a majority (16 out of the 18) of lot owners who expressed no objections to improving the roadway. Further, in accordance with the Department of Water Supply, water can be made available from a 16-inch waterline along the Volcano Highway. The lots would need to be reconfigured in order that frontage for all lots is off the 60-foot wide private roadway. Wastewater generated by the proposed development will be disposed of utilizing individual wastewater disposal system, meeting with the approval of the State Department of Health. All other essential utilities and services are or will be made available to support the proposed development. The property has no severe topographic or geologic problems which cannot be properly rectified or which would render the land unusable for the proposed use. Because the land has been extensively altered and developed, no significant archaeological sites are anticipated to be located within the property. Similarly, the property is not considered a habitat for rare or endangered species of plants and animals. Based on the above findings, approval of the Change of Zone request from Agricultural-20 acres (A-20a) to Family Agricultural-1 acre (FA-la) zoned district would result in an appropriate land use pattern that will further the public necessity and convenience and the general welfare. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-8-22 (Puna District Zone Map), of the County Zoning Code is transmitted.
