J Yoshimoto, Council Chair and Members of the County Council Page 5 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 outside of the SMA. There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountain areas that traverses the site. There is no evidence of any valued cultural, historical or natural resources existing on the property 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. Lastly, this approval is made with the understanding that the applicant remains responsible for complying with all other applicable governmental requirements in connection with the approved use, prior to its commencement or establishment upon the subject properties. Additional governmental requirements may include the issuance of building permits, the installation of approved wastewater disposal systems, compliance with the Fire Code, installation of improvements required by the American with Disabilities Act(ADA), among many others. Compliance with all applicable governmental requirements is a condition of this approval; failure to comply with such requirements will be considered a violation that may result in enforcement action by the Planning Department and/or the affected agencies. 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 the Section 25-8-33 (South Hilo Zone Map), Chapter 25 (Zoning Code) of the Hawai`i County Code is transmitted.
