J Yoshimoto, Council Chair and Members of the County Council Page 4 The property is 22,500 square feet in size and improved with a new 7,000 square foot, steel-framed single-family dwelling. The remainder of the property is cleared and graveled. The surrounding land uses in the area are a mix of residential and commercial uses. Big Island Candies, zoned CG-20, and Manano Market place, zoned CN-20, are located just south of the subject property on Hinano Street. There are several properties to the west along Manono Street that have been rezoned to CN-20 and several properties to the east along Laukapu Street that have been rezoned to MCX-20. Immediately adjacent properties are zoned RS-10 and improved with residences. All utilities and services are available to the site. Access to the project site is from Hinano Street, which is a County owned and maintained roadway identified as a collector with an existing right-of-way of 40 feet. The Department of Public Works (DPW) has recommended that the applicant provide improvements to the property's entire Hinano Street frontage consisting of, but not limited to, pavement widening with concrete curb, gutter and sidewalk, drainage improvements, and any required utility relocation. The improvements shall be located in a 5-foot setback road widening recommended by the Planning Director. County water is available to the site. The project will connect to the existing County sewer system. Solid waste will be disposed of by commercial handlers. 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 residential use. By letter dated April 9, 2014, the Planning Department has requested for comments from the DLNR-SHPD. As of the date of this writing, no response has been received. No professional flora or fauna surveys were conducted of the site. The applicant does not believe that rare or endangered floral or faunal resources are on the site as the property is improved and located within an urban environment close to existing residential and commercial uses.
