The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 4 surface water flow on -site, the applicant will be required to abide by all applicable County guidelines for run -off that may be generated by the project. The entire site has been grubbed and graded as a dwelling site, and was the former site of the Na'alehu Fire Station. Given the scope of work previously conducted on the site, the presence of any known rare, threatened, or endangered floral and fauna species is remote. Likewise, the existence of archaeological sites within the property is unlikely. By letter dated January 19, 2011, the applicant has requested a letter of "no effect" from the State Department of Land and Natural Resources Historic Preservation Division. The Planning Department has not received any comments from the SHPD as of this writing. Based on the above findings, the request to reclassify the property from a Single - Family Residential 15,000 square feet (RS -15) to a Village Commercial 10,000 square feet (CV -10) district would result in a more appropriate land use pattern that will further the public necessity and convenience and the general welfare, and be consistent with the goals, policies and standards of the General Plan. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25 -8 -30 (Na'alehu Zone Map), Article 8, Chapter 25 (Zoning Code) is transmitted. We are enclosing copies of the staff Background, Planning Director's Recommendation, and the Powerpoint presentation for your information.
