The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman <br /> and Members of the County Council <br /> Page 8 <br /> • Possible adverse effect or impairment of valued resources: Native plants may be <br /> destroyed by ground alteration. There is no evidence that the flora in the area are <br /> particularly desired or used for cultural practices. <br /> • Feasible actions to protect native Hawaiian rights: No gathering is taking place on <br /> the site. Thus, to the extent to which traditional and customary native Hawaiian <br /> rights are exercised, the proposed action will not affect traditional Hawaiian <br /> rights; therefore, no action is necessary to protect these rights. <br /> Based on the above findings, approval of the Change of Zone request from <br /> Agricultural 40 -acre (A -40a) to Agricultural 5 -acre (A -5a) would result in an <br /> appropriate land use pattern that will further the public necessity and convenience and the <br /> general welfare. <br /> For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25 -8 -11 (Lalamilo - Puukapu Zone <br /> Map) of the County Zoning Code is transmitted. <br /> We are enclosing copies of the staff Background and Planning Director's Recommendation for <br /> your information. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Lani L.
