The Honorable J Yoshimoto, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 one block east of the property on Kawili Street and Kalanikoa Street was zoned MCX-20 by Ordinance No. 05 159 effective December 15, 2005. All utilities and services are available to the site. Access to the project site is proposed from Kawili Street and Laukapu Street, both County roadways. Tentatively, an ingress-only access from Kawili Street is being proposed, while the Laukapu Street end would be a frill movement access. However, the applicant would like to retain the option of full movement accesses from both Laukapu and Kawili Streets. There are no sidewalks in the area. According to the Department of Public Works, Kawili Street is a secondary arterial with a right-of-way width of 80 feet. DPW recommends no or limited access to/from Kawili Street. Laukapu Street is a collector with a right-of-way of 40 feet fronting the property. Although the City of Hilo Zone Map does not show a future road widening setback for Laukapu Street, the applicant/landowner of the property across Laukapu Street to the west (TMK: 2-2-50: 37 and 38) was required to provide a 10-foot future road widening strip when the property was rezoned in 2003. Therefore, to be consistent with the condition of approval for TMK: 2-2-50: 37 and 38, a condition will be included to provide a 10-foot future road widening strip along the eastern side of Laukapu Street fronting the subject property. A condition of approval will also require that the applicant install concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk along the Laukapu Street property frontage, as well as pavement widening, drainage improvements, and utility relocation that may be required by the Department of Public Works. These improvements will be located within the road widening strip which will be delineated and dedicated to the County if required by the Department of Public Works. County water is available to the site. The project will connect to the County's sewer line. Solid waste will be handled by commercial haulers. If required, a Solid Waste Management Plan will be prepared. 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 detennined 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.
