The proposed commercial building will be used for the applicants' engineering consulting firm. Parking will be provided on -site. The applicants intend to commence construction upon approval of the request, with the completion of constructed estimated in 2011. The cost of construction is estimated at approximately $450,000. Howell': County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer The Honorable J Yoshimoto, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 2 In order to consider an area for any type of zoning designation, the applicable goals, policies and standards of the General Plan must be adequately addressed. It is only through such a comprehensive policy analysis approach that evaluations and decisions can be made to better time and stage developments to achieve growth determined by the General Plan and related planning documents. The implications of these evaluations and decisions must also be considered as they may have an impact on similar areas in the County. The Change of Zone request from RS -10 to CN -10 will conform to the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan Economic and Land Use Elements. The General Plan is intended to be used as a policy guide for the coordinated growth and development of all sectors of the County. The overall goals, policies and standards are set forth to physically plan the lands in the County in the best interest of the island's residents. Land Use is one of the principal focal points of public concern and policy. The Land Use Element provides the primary basis for direct control and guidance of publicly and privately owned resources. The request conforms to the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan in that the proposed development will be developed in an area adequately served by necessary services such as water, utilities and transportation systems. The proposed project conforms to the Commercial Development goal which states "provide commercial developments that complement the overall pattern of transportation and land usage within the island's regions, communities, and neighborhoods." The Land Use Patten Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map component of the General Plan is a representation of the document's goals and policies to guide the coordinated growth and development of the County. It reflects a graphic depiction of the physical relationship among the various land uses. The LUPAG Map establishes the basic urban and non -urban form for areas within the County. The project area is designated Medium Density Urban on the LUPAG Map. The requested zoning would be consistent with the urban designation on the LUPAG Map for this area of Hilo. The State Land Use designation for the subject property is Urban. The property is designated Urban by the Land Study Bureau's Productivity Rating. The Hilo Community Development Plan (CDP), adopted in 1975, suggests residential uses in this area. However, this area is transitioning to higher density commercial type uses. The proposed change of zone would complement the existing commercial land uses that already exist in this area and will provide for an orderly development of the area. The Honorable J Yoshimoto, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 3 The property is a vacant, approximately 9,678 square foot parcel located on Manono Street. The parcel was fonnerly used as a single - family residence, but the dwelling has since been demolished. The land uses in the area are a mix of residential and commercial uses. The Atebara Potato Chip Factory is located adjacent to the property to the north. Immediately adjacent properties to the east and south are zoned RS -10. However, there are several parcels zoned Neighborhood Commercial to the north of the property on both sides of Manono Street, including churches, commercial uses and offices. Rezonings in the area from RS -10 to Neighborhood Commercial include: • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 85 and 93 (Ordinance No. 00 031) • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 12 (Ordinance No. 06 107) • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 13 (Ordinance No. 06 124) • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 84 (Ordinance No. 08 006) • TMK: 2 -2 -36: 25 and 26 (Ordinance No. 08 20) TMK: 2 -2 -34: 88 (Ordinance No. 09 45). All utilities and services are available to the site. The project will connect to the existing County sewer system. Solid waste will be disposed of by commercial handlers. Access to the project site is proposed from Manono Street, a secondary arterial with a right -of -way of 50 feet with graveled shoulders. The City of Hilo Zone Map designates Manono Street as a 60 -foot right-of-way. The Department of Public Works (DPW) states that Manono Street is a secondary arterial with an existing right -of -way width of 60 feet fronting the property. 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. No professional surveys were conducted of the site due to the history of extensive disturbance. By letter dated March 9, 2010, the Department of Land and Natural Resources Historic Preservation Division (DLNR -HPD) has determined that no historic properties will be affected by this project because development /urbanization and previous grubbing/grading has altered the land. The inspection of the property by SHPD confirmed that no historic properties were present. No professional flora or fauna surveys were conducted of the site. The applicants do not believe that rare or endangered floral or faunal resources are on the site as the property has been improved and is located within an urban environment close to existing commercial uses. The Honorable J Yoshimoto, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 Sincerely, The request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to Coastal Zone Management. The project site is not proximate to the shoreline and not located in the SMA. There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountain areas that traverses the site. According to the applicants, no valued cultural, historical or natural resources exist on the properties 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, the approval of the change of zone request from a Single - Family Residential (RS -10) to a Neighborhood Commercial (CN -10) zoned district 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. We are enclosing copies of the staff Background and Planning Director's Recommendation for your information.

Anticipated Increase in Traffic Consistent with the community development plan, the area is transitioning from primarily residential uses to a mix of residential and light commercial resulting in a modest increase in traffic. Potential Impacts from Proposed Use The proposed professional office building shall not impact traffic. • A lj Proposed On -site and Off -site Infrastructure Parcel 82 appears to have all necessary on -site and off -site infrastructures. 13. CONFORMANCE WITH STATE /COUNTY PLANS B 2 State Land Use Designation Parcel 82 is in a State land use Urban District as shown on the State Land District Boundary Map. Please see Figure 3 State Land District Boundary Map for details. TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 2 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. B 3 Coastal Zone Management The proposed office building is not contrary to the Coastal Zone Management Program, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). The Site is not in the County's Special Management Area (SMA). The Site is not a coastal property. The Site has no access to the shoreline. The Site has no view of the shoreline. The proposed office building will not impact coastal ecosystems as it is over 3,900 feet inland from Hilo Bay. B 4 Applicable Goals, Policies and Objectives of the Hawaii County General Plan The Site is designated as "Medium Density Urban" ( "Medium Density") on the current General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide ( "LUPAG ") map. The Medium Density designation is intended for village and neighborhood commercial related functions including 3 -story commercial and residential up to 35 units per acre. As such, the proposed project is consistent with the Medium Density designation. The proposed rezoning conforms to the following goals, policies and standards of the General Plan. • Economic Element: Goals (a) Provide residents with opportunities to improve their quality of life through economic development that enhances the County's natural and social environments. (c) Strive for diversity and stability in the economic system. (d) Provide an economic environment that allows new, expanded, or improved economic opportunities that are compatible with the County's cultural, natural and social environment. (e) Strive for an economic climate that provides its residents an opportunity for the choice of occupation. (f) Strive for diversification of the economy by strengthening existing industries and attracting new endeavors. Policies (g) Identify the needs of the business community and take actions that are necessary to improve the business climate. Discussion: The proposed rezoning furthers the County's goals of providing an economic environment which allows new or existing businesses to expand and diversify the County's economic base, and there by also increase the choice of occupations. The design of the proposed professional office building and use of extensive landscaping will make it compatible with the surrounding residential area, minimizing any potential social impacts. Land Use- General: Goals (a) Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with the social, cultural, and physical environments of the County. TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 3 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. Policies (a) Zone urban -types of uses in areas with ease of access to community services and employment centers and with adequate public utilities and facilities. (b) Promote and encourage the rehabilitation and use of urban areas that are serviced by basic community facilities and utilities. (c) Allocate appropriate requested zoning in accordance with the existing or projected needs of neighborhood, community, region and County. (f) Encourage the development and maintenance of communities meeting the needs of its residents in balance with the physical and social environment. Land Use — Commercial Development: Goals (a) Provide for commercial developments that maximize convenience to users. (b) Provide commercial developments that complement the overall pattern of transportation and land usage within the island's regions, communities, and neighborhoods. Policies (a) Commercial facilities shall be developed in areas adequately served by necessary services, such as water, utilities, sewers, and transportation systems. Should such services not be available, the development of more intensive uses should be in concert with a localized program of public and private capital improvements to meet the expected increased needs. (b) Distribution of commercial areas shall meet the demands of neighborhood, community and regional needs. (c) The development of commercial facilities should be designed to fit into the locale with minimal intrusion while providing the desired services. Appropriate infrastructural and design concerns shall be incorporated into the review of such developments. Course of Action: Within the Waiakea Houselots "medium density" area, commercial development shall be focused on the major streets - -- Kekuanaoa, Piilani, Manono and Lanikaula, while the interior blocks should be zoned primarily for single- and multifamily residential use. Parcel 82 is an appropriate location for commercial use because it is adjacent to existing commercial uses and existing public facilities such as water and sewer. The General Plan recognizes the desirability of renewing underutilized areas rather than sprawling into outlying areas. The General Plan also espouses the concept of mixing compatible commercial and residential uses to create a more dynamic community.

TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 6 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. • • Water Quality The proposed commercial office building will not have any significant impact on water resources. The Site has no streams or watercourses located on or near Parcel 82. The nearest waterway to the Site is Waiakea Pond, located over 1,000 feet from the Site. C 18 Existing Archaeological, Cultural or Historic Sites on National or State Register In accordance with DLNR SHPD letter dated December 7, 2009, the proposed Project will have no impact on historical resources. Please find the DLNR SHPD letter attached after the figures for details. C 19 Existing Flora /Fauna Resources The proposed Project would not have any significant impact on natural resources. The parcel has been extensively disturbed sine 1929 from residential use and the only vegetation on the Site appears to be made up of introduced species. Due to the history of extensive and complete disturbance, it is highly unlikely that Parcel 82 contains any habitat for any federally or State listed, candidate or proposed threatened or endangered plant or animal species. Introduced bird species include the spotted dove, Japanese White -Eye, house finch and mynah. Domestic animals such as cats and dogs and other animals such as rats and mongoose are common in the area.

Within 1,000 ft of Parcel 82 there are two Commercial, Industrial (MCX -20) parcels. C 24 Economic Resources of the Area TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 7 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. • The major economic resources of the area are the Civic Center, the Hilo Community College, the University of Hawaii at Hilo and the Hilo International Airport. C 25 Land Values Parcel 82 has an estimated land value of $200,000. C 26 Surrounding Land Use The surrounding area is primarily residential with increasing commercial use. Parcel 82 is adjacent to the Atebara Potato Chip Factory across the street from Coles Drafting and the Hirayama Building. One street further east is Big Island Candy. C 27 Surrounding Zoning of Surrounding Lands Within 600 ft of Parcel 82 there are eight Commercial Neighborhood (CN -10 or 20) parcels, two Commercial General (CG -20) parcels, one Resort-Hotel (V -.75) parcel, one Industrial, Limited (ML -20) parcels and one Residential, Double Family (RD -3.75) parcel.

PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES D 28 Description of Access Parcel 82 fronts Manono Street. Manono Street is a County right of way classified as a secondary arterial of 50 ft width. Access to Manono Street shall be at a single paved driveway approximately 20 ft wide conforming to Chapter 22, County Streets, of the Hawaii County Code. Parcel 82 has full improvements meeting the approval of Department of Public Works to the entire frontage along Manono Street consisting of, but not limited to, pavement widening with concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk and all required utility relocations. D 29 Availability of Water An existing Department of Water Supply (DWS) 5/8 water meter serves the Site from Manono Street. A mechanical PE states that the water requirements of the proposed new office building shall be the same or less than then the previous single family residence D 30 Sewage Disposal The County sewer line runs along Manono Street with an existing sewer line serving the Site. D 31 Solid Waste The Site is currently cleared and does not require the disposal of land clearing material. The Applicant is aware that construction waste is prohibited at transfer stations and would thus disposal of any and all construction waste using a commercial hauler. The Applicant intends to dispose of the office building waste using a commercial hauler. TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 8 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. A Solid Waste Management Plan shall be submitted to the Department of Environmental Management for review and approval prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. D 32 Police and Fire Protection Parcel 82 is located within the service area of the County Fire Department's 24 -hour substation at Waiakea, and supported by the headquarters on Kinoole Street and additional substations at Kawailani Street and Kaumana Drive. The County Police Department main station on Kapiolani Street, approximately 2 miles away provides all necessary police protective services. Parcel 82 has two fire hydrants nearby; one located on the adjacent south parcel the second hydrant across the street and two lots down. D 33 Schools and Parks Parcel 82 is situated within the K -12 Hilo School Complex including the Kapiolani Elementary School, the Hilo Intermediated School, the Hilo High School as well as St. Joseph Grade School and High School.

D 34 Utilities and Services Public sewer connection, electricity, telephone, intemet and cable service are available to the Parcel 82 via overhead lines on Manono Street. E. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS E 35 Relationship between local short -term uses of environment and maintenance and enhancement of long term productivity. The site previously housed a 900 sqft residence that was in disrepair and a public hazard. The Applicant recently demolished the building. The Site is currently vacant open land. If the requested change of zone is approved the construction of a commercial office building for professionals will enhance the long term productivity of the land and area and provided needed services to the community. The proposed commercial office building will not have any significant impact on the environment and will enhance the productivity and use of the land. E 36 Mitigative Measures proposed to avoid, minimize rectify and/ or reduce impact. The hours of operation will be between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Site activity is not expected to inconvenience surrounding properties. The proposed commercial office building and related uses will be properly landscaped so as to minimize any impact to neighbors and scenic resources. TMK (3) 2 -2 -034: 082 9 of 15 Background and Environmental Report: Hakalau Engineering, LLC. E 37 Alternatives to the proposed development: No Project: Under the status quo alternative, the site would remain in its present vacant, cleared use. Under this scenario, the site would not be utilized to its highest and best use as envisioned by the General Plan and current commercial and residential growth of the area. Development Based on Existing RS -10 Zoning: Under this scenario, the site may be used for one residence. While this is possible, residential uses, however, may not be desirable due to noise associated with traffic along Manono Street. Development Based on Residential Rezoning: Under this scenario, the site could be rezoned to accommodate a denser residential project. While this is possible and consistent with the General LUPAG's map Medium Density designation, it may require off -site infrastructure and place a burden on existing services. Evaluation of Alternatives: Leaving the land in its present vacant, cleared use would not maximize the use of the land, will detract from the surrounding properties and will generate the least County tax revenues. The land could continue to be used for residential use however with reduced County tax revenues and with reduced services to the public. While higher density residential use is possible it is less desirable given its frontage along a heavily traveled road and the cost to provide the required off -site infrastructure. Approving the requested rezoning will provided county with the highest County tax revenues and provide the community with needed professional office space consistent with applicable goals, policies and objectives of the Hawaii County General Plan Medium Density Urban designation. E 38. Irreversible and irretrievable commitments of natural resources that would be involved if proposed action implemented. The Site has been in residential use sine 1929 and is situated within a developed medium density urban area. It is not likely that there are any natural resources relating to Parcel 82 that would be irreversibly and irretrievably committed should the requested change of zone be approved.

REQUEST: RS -10 TO CN -10 TAX MAP KEY 2- 2- 034:082 r tU -: We have reviewed the subject application and have the following comments and conditions. w Water is available from an existing 8 -inch waterline within Manono Street fronting the subject parcel. There is an existing 1 -inch service lateral installed to the parcel capable of accommodating a 5/8 -inch meter, which is limited to an average daily usage of 400 gallons. The Department has no objection to the proposed change of zone application subject to the applicant understanding and accepting the following conditions: 1. The Department requests that the applicant submit estimated maximum daily water usage calculations, prepared by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Hawai`i, for review and approval. The water usage calculations should include the total estimated maximum daily water usage in gallons per day and the estimated peak flow in gallons per minute. Based on the water usage calculations provided, if a 5/8 -inch meter cannot accommodate the estimated demand, a larger or additional meter will need to be installed and remittance of the prevailing facilities charge, which is subject to change, will be required. If a 5/8 -inch meter can accommodate the estimated demand, then the applicant may utilize a 5/8 -inch meter. 2. The proposed land use will require the installation of a reduced pressure type backflow prevention assembly, within five (5) feet of the meter on private property. If a larger or additional meter is required, a backflow prevention assembly will also be required for that meter. The installation of the backflow prevention assembly(s) must be inspected and approved by the Department before water service can be activated. 3. Subject to other agencies' requirements to construct improvements within the road right -of -way fronting the property affected by the proposed development, the applicant shall be responsible for the relocation and adjustment of the Department's affected water system facilities, should they be necessary.

The solid waste management plan will be used to: (1) promotes and implement recycling and recycling programs, (2) predict the waste generated by the proposed development to anticipate the loading on County solid waste management facilities, and (3) predict the additional vehicular traffic being generated because of waste and recycling transfers. A qualified consultant shall prepare a suitable solid waste management plan for review by the Department of Environmental Management. REPORT ` The Solid Waste Management Plan will contain the following: 1. Description of the project and the potential waste it may be generating: i.e. analysis of anticipated waste volume and composition. This includes waste generated during the construction and operational or maintenance phases. Waste types shall include (but not be limited to): A. Organics (including food waste and green wastes); B. Construction and Demolition; C. Paper (including cardboard); D. Metal (including ferrous and non - ferrous metals); E. Plastic; F. Special (including ash, sludge, treated medical, bulky items, tires); G. Household Hazardous (including paint, vehicle fluids, oil, batteries); and H. Glass. 2. Indicate onsite source separation facilities by waste type; i.e. source separation bins of glass, metal, plastic, cardboard, aluminum, etc. Provide ample and equal space for rubbish and recycling. 3. Identification and location of the proposed waste reduction, waste re -use, recycling facility or disposal site and associated transportation methods for the various components of the development's waste management system, including the number of County of Hawai`i is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer. • Solid Waste Management Plan Guidelines Page2of2 • vehicle movements and associated routes that will be used to transport the waste and recycled materials. 4. The report will include identification of any impacts to County- operated waste management facilities, and the appropriate mitigation measures that will be implemented by the development to minimize these impacts. 5. Analysis will be based on the highest potential use or zoning of the development. REQUIREMENTS AND CONDITIONS 1. A solid waste management plan will be prepared for all commercial developments, as defined under the policies of the Department of Environmental Management, Solid Waste Division. 2. The Department of Environmental Management will require the developer to provide or resolve all recommendations and mitigation measures as outlined in the solid waste management plan; besides any conditions placed on the applicant herein. 3.

CAVEDONI AND RONG HUA CHANGE OF ZONE (REZ 10 -118) Upon careful review of the request against the guidelines for granting a change of zone, the Planning Director is recommending that a favorable recommendation of the Change of Zone request be forwarded to the County Council. Since this recommendation is made without the benefit of public testimony, the Director reserves the right to modify and/or alter this recommendation based upon additional information presented at the public hearing. This favorable recommendation is based on the following findings: The applicants request a change of zone from Single - Family Residential 10,000 square feet (RS -10) to Neighborhood Commercial 10,000 square feet (CN -10) to construct a single -story 2,100 square foot professional office building for one to three tenants. The proposed commercial building will be used for the applicants' engineering consulting firm. Parking will be provided on -site. The applicants intend to commence construction upon approval of the request, with the completion of constructed estimated in 2011. The cost of construction is estimated at approximately $450,000. In order to consider an area for any type of zoning designation, the applicable goals, policies and standards of the General Plan must be adequately addressed. It is only through such a comprehensive policy analysis approach that evaluations and decisions can be made to better time and stage developments to achieve growth determined by the General Plan and related planning documents. The implications of these evaluations and decisions must also be considered as they may have an impact on similar areas in the County. The Change of Zone request from RS -10 to CN -10 will conform to the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan Economic and Land Use Elements. The General Plan is intended to be used as a policy guide for the coordinated growth and development of all sectors of the County. The overall goals, policies and standards are set forth to physically plan the lands in the County in the best interest of the island's residents. Land Use is one of the principal focal points of public concern and policy. The Land Use Element provides the primary basis for direct control and guidance of publicly and privately owned resources. The request conforms to the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan in that the proposed development will be developed in an area adequately served by necessary services such as water, utilities and transportation systems. The proposed project conforms to the Commercial Development goal which states "provide commercial developments that complement the overall pattern of transportation and land usage within the island's regions, communities, and neighborhoods." The Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map component of the General Plan is a representation of the document's goals and policies to guide the coordinated growth and development of the County. It reflects a graphic depiction of the physical relationship among the various land uses. The LUPAG Map establishes the basic urban and non -urban form for areas within the County. The project area is designated Medium Density Urban on the LUPAG Map. The requested zoning would be consistent with the urban designation on the LUPAG Map for this area of Hilo. The State Land Use designation for the subject property is Urban. The property is designated Urban by the Land Study Bureau's Productivity Rating. The Hilo Community Development Plan (CDP), adopted in 1975, suggests residential uses in this area. However, this area is transitioning to higher density commercial type uses. The proposed change of zone would complement the existing commercial land uses that already exist in this area and will provide for an orderly development of the area. The property is a vacant, approximately 9,678 square foot parcel located on Manono Street. The parcel was formerly used as a single - family residence, but the dwelling has since been demolished. The land uses in the area are a mix of residential and commercial uses. The Atebara Potato Chip Factory is located adjacent to the property to the north. Immediately adjacent properties to the east and south are zoned RS -10. However, there are several parcels zoned Neighborhood Commercial to the north of the property on both sides of Manono Street, including churches, commercial uses and offices. Rezonings in the area from RS -10 to Neighborhood Commercial include: • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 85 and 93 (Ordinance No. 00 031) -2- • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 12 (Ordinance No. 06 107) • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 13 (Ordinance No. 06 124) • TMK: 2 -2 -34: 84 (Ordinance No. 08 006) • TMK: 2 -2 -36: 25 and 26 (Ordinance No. 08 20) TMK: 2 -2 -34: 88 (Ordinance No. 09 45) All utilities and services are available to the site. The project will connect to the existing County sewer system. Solid waste will be disposed of by commercial handlers. Access to the project site is proposed from Manono Street, a secondary arterial with a right -of -way of 50 feet with graveled shoulders. The City of Hilo Zone Map designates Manono Street as a 60 -foot right -of -way. The Department of Public Works (DPW) states that Manono Street is a secondary arterial with an existing right -of -way width of 60 feet fronting the property. Consistent with the rezonings along Manono Street, the applicants will be required to provide a 5 -foot future road widening section along the property's frontage. 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. No professional surveys were conducted of the site due to the history of extensive disturbance. By letter dated March 9, 2010, the Department of Land and Natural Resources Historic Preservation Division (DLNR -HPD) has determined that no historic properties will be affected by this project because development/urbanization and previous grubbing/grading has altered the land. The inspection of the property by SHPD confirmed that no historic properties were present. No professional flora or fauna surveys were conducted of the site. The applicants do not believe that rare or endangered floral or faunal resources are on the site as the property has been improved and is located within an urban environment close to existing commercial uses. The request is not contrary to Chapter 205A, Hawaii Revised Statues, relating to Coastal Zone Management. The project site is not proximate to the -3- shoreline and not located in the SMA. There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountain areas that traverses the site. According to the applicants, no valued cultural, historical or natural resources exist on the properties 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, the approval of the change of zone request from a Single - Family Residential (RS -10) to a Neighborhood Commercial (CN -10) zoned district would result in an appropriate land use pattern that will further benefit the general public. The accompanying draft bill to amend Section 25 -8 -33 (City of Hilo Zone Map), Chapter 25 (Zoning Code) of the Hawaii County Code, is provided for your favorable consideration. Please note the proposed conditions of approval attached to the draft bill. -4- '!P COUNTY OF HAWAII • �'�% • `; STATE OF HAWAII • BILL NO. ORDINANCE NO.
