EXHIBIT A 3. To encourage rural clustered[subdw+sieos] PUDs: a) [Streamlined lCoordinated Processing. [By following the Clustered Rural Subdivi Guidelines (Attachment G), many issues are pre settled and theFefore a shorter definite permit preGessing tome period is justified. The master plan approval also serves as the teRtative subdivision approval. By using the Design Center, the appliGaRt also reGeives the beRefit of a Gounty employee assigned to assist with permit Goordin ] For projects reviewed by the Design Center, a planning staff member may be- assigned to help coordinate approvals for the proposed project. b) Alternative Standards. The Clustered Rural Subdivision guidelines provide options for alternate road and wastewater standards. 4.2.3 Goals, Objectives, Policies, and Actions Land Use Goal: Public policies set the foundation and framework within which the community and private sector work collaboratively towards a shared vision of concentrating growth within urban villages in North Kona, preserving rural character and agricultural lands, protecting significant natural and cultural resources, providing a range of housing opportunities, and a process to constructively, efficiently, and fairly achieve these ends with the best practices and quality. Objective LU-1: Overall Growth Pattern. To identify areas where higher intensity growth areas should occur and areas where the rural character and open space along the shoreline should be preserved. Policy LU-1.1: Official Kona Land Use Map. The Official Kona Land Use Map (see Figure 4-7) shall define the Kona Urban Area (see Policy LU-1.2) and the general locations, spacing, and type of TOD Villages (see Policies TRAN-1.3 and LU-2.3). Action LU-1.1a: Adopt[s] Official Kona Land Use Map[ ]. Policy LU-1.2: Urban Area. The majority of future growth in Kona shall be directed to the Kona Urban Area shown on the Official Kona Land Use Map (see Figure 4-7), which spans from the Kona International Airport to Keauhou subject to the policies set forth under Objective LU-2 Urban Area Growth Management, Action LU-1.2a: Define[s] Kona Urban Area (Enacted by plan)]. Policy LU-1.3: Rural Area. The rural area consists of the lands outside of the Kona Urban Area. Future growth in this area shall be concentrated within and around the existing LUPAG medium and low density areas, which correspond to the existing rural towns. Action LU-1.3a: County shall work with State to identify lands that may be appropriate to reclassify from Agriculture to Rural, consistent with Kona CDP Policies (PD, on-going). Policy LU-1.4: Consistency with Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG). The current LUPAG accommodates the vision and needs for the Kona CDP area planning horizon and should be amended only for compelling reasons. Any rezoning application shall be consistent with the LUPAG. Policy LU-1.5: Enhanced Shoreline Setback. Beyond the 40 foot shoreline setback regulated by Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) Sections 205A Part III, the County shall explore alternatives (e.g., density transfer based on gross density) for the applicant of a Special Management Area (SMA) Major Permit to dedicate to the government or land trust or encumber as open space for the purpose of realizing a shoreline linear park 20
