GoALs, OBJECTrvES, <br />POLICIES & ACTIONS <br />CHAPTER 4 <br />4. GOALS, OBJECTIVES, POLICIES, AND <br />ACTIONS <br />Chapter 4 presents the goals, objectives, policies, and actions of the Kona Community Development Plan <br />(CDP). They are presented as eight elements, including: <br />Transportation <br />Land Use <br />Environmental Resources <br />Cultural Resources <br />Housing <br />Public Facilities, Infrastructure and Services <br />7. Energy <br />8. Economic Development <br />These elements generally correspond with the thirteen elements of the County of Hawaii General Plan <br />(GP) except that five elements of the GP have been combined in two of the Kona CDP elements. <br />Specifically, the Kona CDP element for Public Facilities, Infrastructure and Services combines the GP <br />elements for Public Facilities, Public Utilities and Recreation; and, the Kona CDP element for <br />Environmental Resources combines the GP elements for Environmental Quality, Flooding and Other <br />Natural Hazards, Natural Beauty and Natural Resources and Shoreline. The GP element for Historic Sites <br />is referred to in the Kona CDP as Cultural Resources and the GP element for Economic is referred to as <br />Economic Development. The concepts of sustainability variously addressed in the GP element for <br />Environmental Quality form a part of the overall vision for the Kona CDP, as presented in Chapter 3 <br />Visualizing Kona Tomorrow. <br />Each of the eight Elements in this chapter has eight components, described as follows: <br />1. Introduction to the Element, discussing its scope, purpose and/or guiding principle(s). A table <br />shows which of the eight guiding principles the Element supports. <br />2. Existing Conditions, describing the issues, concerns, and/or state of knowledge that are addressed <br />in the Element. <br />3. Overall Strategy, explaining the major approaches by which the issues and concerns described in <br />Existing Conditions will be addressed. <br />4. Goal, stating the intended outcome for the Element, as derived from the community outreach <br />phase of the Kona CDP process. <br />5. Objectives, corresponding to each of the major approaches identified in the Overall Strategy. Each <br />of the objectives in an Element is identified by an alphabetical prefix identifying the element and a <br />sequential numeral. For example, "Objective LU -1" is the first objective in the Land Use Element. <br />KONA CDP 4-1 <br />
