<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> General Plan LUPAG map. The LUPAG map has been amended three <br /> times to reflect the current environment of the Waiakea Houselots area <br /> and nearby areas. As such, some.of the planning assumptions reflected <br /> in the 1975 CDP are now obsolete. The GP LUPAG map therefore is a <br /> more accurate land use depiction of the affected properties and <br /> surrounding lands. The County Charter requires all change of zones to be <br /> consistent with the designation in the General Plan. In this case, the GP <br /> LUPAG designation is Industrial, and thus, the requested MCX-10 zoning <br /> would be consistent with the Industrial designation. <br /> <br /> D. County Zoning <br /> <br /> The property is designated Single Family Residential 10,000 square feet <br /> (RS-10). However, over the past decade, various rezonings in the area to <br /> commercial or industrial-commercial mixed uses have been approved. As <br /> such, the surrounding area has been transitioning from single-family <br /> residential to commercial and industrial uses. (Figure 5) <br /> E. Special Management Area <br /> <br /> The property is not located in the Special Management Area (SMA); as <br /> such, no SMA Major Permit is required. <br /> <br /> VI. ENVIRONMENTAL <br /> <br /> A. Project site <br /> <br /> The project site consists of two contiguous parcels which will be <br /> consolidated should this rezoning be approved. Parcel 1 is a 12,820 <br /> square-foot rectangular-shaped corner parcel with an approximately 81- <br /> year old unoccupied dwelling. Parcel 103, adjacent to Parcel 1 to the <br /> east, is a 10,000 square-foot property and is vacant. There is a rock wall <br /> around the perimeter of the two parcels fronting Kekuanaoa Street and <br /> Laukapu Street. <br /> <br /> B. Surrounding properties <br /> Located within a 1/2 mile radius from the project site are various zoning <br /> designations including General Commercial (CG), Single-Family <br /> Residential (RS), Neighborhood Commercial (CN), Limited Industrial (ML) <br /> and Industrial-Commercial Mixed (MCX). (See Figure 5) Big Island <br /> Candies zoned General Commercial is located across Laupaku Street to <br /> the west. A potato chip factory, quilt shop, various office uses, <br /> condominiums, church, offices for the County of Hawaii Department of <br /> Water Supply, and IEG Federal Credit Union are located in close proximity <br /> to the site. Further to the north is a self-storage facility, and the Best <br /> Store, Aloha Petroleum and real estate offices are located on Kekuanaoa <br /> Street to the east. <br /> <br /> -3- <br />
