Chapter 3 of the Hawai`i County Code 1983 (2005 Edition, as amended), <br /> is amended by adding a new article to be appropriately designated and to read as follows: <br /> "Article . Pahoa Village Signs. <br /> Division 1. General Provisions. <br /> Section 3- . Purpose; applicability. <br /> Pahoa is recognized as a special design district of the County. Unquestionably, signs have a <br /> legitimate place in Pahoa if they are thoughtfully designed and appropriate to their surroundings. <br /> Many elements of good sign design can serve well to further express community identity and <br /> values through preservation of the architectural theme of the community, which for Pahoa, is the <br /> plantation country village atmosphere cherished by residents and visitors alike. The primary <br /> purpose of a sign is to promote the identity, goods and services, or activities on the property <br /> through visual communication. While laws can regulate the size, placement, number, design, <br /> and aesthetics of signs, it is recognized that reasonable minds may differ as to how sign control <br /> can best be accomplished. The Pahoa design review committee, as established in chapter 2.5, <br /> article 7 of this Code, (hereinafter "committee"), through the planning department, has a shared <br /> responsibility for sign review within the Pahoa Village district. The provisions of this article <br /> shall be utilized by the committee and cooperating agencies in evaluating all sign permit requests <br /> within the Pahoa Village district. <br /> Unless otherwise provided for in this article, all sections of article 1 of this chapter shall <br /> apply to the Pahoa Village district. However, certain other aspects of signage are applied <br /> specifically to this district in addition to those in article 1. <br /> 2 <br />
