REPORT OF THE <br /> COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC WORKS AND <br /> PARKS AND RECREATION <br /> DATE: September 18, 2018 Re: Comm. No. 1058/Res. No. 680-18 <br /> PLACE: Council Chambers <br /> Kailua Kona, Hawai`i <br /> TIME: 1:34 p.m. <br /> Council Chair and Members <br /> Hawai`i County Council <br /> Hilo, Hawai`i 96720 <br /> Your Committee on Public Works and Parks and Recreation, to which was referred Res. No. 680-18, <br /> reports as follows: <br /> Res. No. 680-18, transmitted by Allan G. Simeon, Director of Public Works, via Communication 1058 <br /> dated August 16, 2018, is a resolution for a variance from Chapter 3, Section 3-12(a) Hawai`i County <br /> Code 1983 (2016 Edition, as amended), to allow one ground sign at the new entrance to the Hawai`i <br /> Ocean Science and Technology Park, at the intersection of Kaiminani Drive and Queen Ka`ahumanu <br /> Highway, Tax Map Key: (3) 7- 3- 043:113 (Zoned"0" Open District). <br /> Ms. Laurence Sombardier, Senior Staffer with the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii Authority <br /> (NELHA), which hosts the Science and Technology Park, described the benefits of the new sign and <br /> why a variance request to allow a larger sign was necessary. Due to the newly created entrance to <br /> NELHA, as the result of highway improvements to Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway, a larger size sign was <br /> necessary to allow for adequate visibility from the new four-lane highway and signaled intersection. <br /> Your Committee on Public Works and Parks and Recreation is in accord with the purpose and intent of <br /> Res. 680-18, and recommends its adoption. <br /> ith <br /> AYES NOES ABS EX Respectfully submitted, <br /> CHUNG X <br /> DAVID x COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC WORKS AND <br /> EOFF x PARKS AND RE - ' .ATION <br /> KANUHA X <br /> LEE LOY X - `o <br /> O'HARA X <br /> POINDEXTER x MAILE DAVID, VICE CHAIR <br /> RICHARDS X PWPRC REPORT NO.: 50 <br /> RUGGLES X ADOPTED: OCT 0 3 2018 <br />
