The Clustered Rural Subdivision guidelines provide options for <br /> alternate road and wastewater standards. <br /> 4.2.3 Goals, Objectives, Policies, and Actions <br /> Land Use Goal: Public policies set the foundation and framework within which the community and <br /> private sector work collaboratively towards a shared vision of concentrating growth within urban <br /> villages in North Kona, preserving rural character and agricultural lands, protecting significant <br /> natural and cultural resources, providing a range of housing opportunities, and a process to <br /> constructively, efficiently, and fairly achieve these ends with the best practices and quality. <br /> Objective LU-1: Overall Growth Pattern. To identify areas where higher intensity growth areas should <br /> occur and areas where the rural character and open space along the shoreline should be preserved. <br /> Policy LU-1.1: Official Kona Land Use Map. The Official Kona Land Use Map (see Figure 4-7) shall <br /> define the Kona Urban Area (see Policy LU-1.2) and the general locations, spacing, and type of TOD <br /> Villages (see Policies TRAM-1.3 and LU-2.3). <br /> Action LU-1.1a: Adopt[s] Official Kona Land Use Map[(Enarted by plan) <br /> Policy LU-1.2: Urban Area. The majority of future growth in Kona shall be directed to the Kona Urban <br /> Area shown on the Official Kona Land Use Map (see Figure 4-7), which spans from the Kona International <br /> Airport to Keauhou subject to the policies set forth under Objective LU-2 Urban Area Growth Management. <br /> Action LU-1.2a: Define[s] Kona Urban Area (EnaGted by planfli. <br /> Policy LU-1.3: Rural Area. The rural area consists of the lands outside of the Kona Urban Area. Future <br /> growth in this area shall be concentrated within and around the existing LUPAG medium and low density <br /> areas, which correspond to the existing rural towns. <br /> Action LU-1.3a: County shall work with State to identify lands that may be appropriate to reclassify <br /> from Agriculture to Rural,consistent with Kona CDP Policies (PD,on-going). <br /> Policy LU-1.4: Consistency with Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG). The current LUPAG <br /> accommodates the vision and needs for the Kona CDP area planning horizon and should be amended only <br /> for compelling reasons. Any rezoning application shall be consistent with the LUPAG. <br /> Policy LU-1.5: Enhanced Shoreline Setback. Beyond the 40 foot shoreline setback regulated by Hawaii <br /> Revised Statutes (HRS) Sections 205A Part 111, the County shall explore alternatives (e.g., density transfer <br /> based on gross density)for the applicant of a Special Management Area (SMA) Major Permit to dedicate to <br /> the government or land trust or encumber as open space for the purpose of realizing a shoreline linear park <br /> 20 <br />
