The Honorable Dominic Yagong, Chairman and Members of the County Council Page 5 approximately 4 trips during the a.m. peak hour and 4 trips during the p.m. peak hour which is well below the standard threshold for requiring a traffic impact analysis report. The applicant intends to utilize the existing sewer lateral serving the property. There is also an existing sewer cleanout near the front property line. The Department of Environmental Management has recommended that a sewer study be completed if an increase in wastewater generation from the property is anticipated in order to ensure that the existing sewer lateral is adequate. County water is available from an 8 -inch waterline within Kino`ole Street. The property is currently served by a 5/8 -inch meter that is limited to an average daily usage of 400 gallons. Depending on the water needs of the development, a service lateral and additional meter may be required. The installation of a fire hydrant may also be required to meet Department of Water Supply System Standards. The project has no severe geological or topographical problem which cannot be properly rectified or which would render the land unusable. The property is situated in Flood Zone "X", which is an area determined by FEMA to be outside of the 500 -year flood plain. There are no municipal waste collection services in the County. All solid waste generated by the development will require private disposal at the Hilo landfill. Electric and telephone services are available to the property. Police, fire and medical services are available nearby in Hilo Based on the above findings, approval of the Change of Zone request from Single -Family Residential (RS -10) to the General Commercial (CG -20) zoned district would result in an appropriate land use pattern that will further the public convenience, necessity and general welfare. For your favorable consideration, an amendment to Section 25-8-33 (City of Hilo Zone Map) of Chapter 25 Zoning Code of the Hawaii County Code is transmitted.
