The LUPAG Map component of the General Plan is a representation of the document's goals, policies, standards and courses of action. It is also a graphic depiction of the physical relationship between the various land uses. The LUPAG Map establishes the basic urban and non -urban form for areas within the County. The Urban District request conforms to the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map, which designates this area as Medium Density Urban. Thus, the area under consideration is consistent with the urban form established for this section of South Hilo as depicted on the LUPAG Map. The urban classification conforms to the standard that the development is within reasonable proximity to centers of trading and employment and to basic services such as schools, police and fire protection, transportation systems and water. Access is from Mohouli Street onto Kupuna Place (an approximately thirty-foot paved area within a fifty -foot wide roadway parcel owned by the State but managed by the County under the EO No. 4224) then onto a paved portion within an approximately 70 -foot wide road and utility easement leading to the subject properties. There is an existing 10 -feet wide no vehicular access easement on the subject properties fronting Mohouli Street. There is an emergency access gate between the Mohouli Heights Senior Neighborhood project and the end of Kahikini Street in the adjacent Sunrise Ridge Subdivision, which will remain closed unless an emergency access is required. In their June 22, 2018, the Department of Water Supply confirmed that each parcel has an existing service assigned to it from the existing 8 -inch waterline along the roadway within the parcels. Therefore, the Department has no objections to the proposed application. The applicant indicated that all waste generated by the Project will be disposed of at appropriate sites designated by the Department of Environmental Management (DEM) Solid Waste Division. The sewer main extension from Kahikini Street through a road and utility easement services Phase 1.
