Yuen <br /> Director <br /> Planning Department <br /> County of Hawaii <br /> 101 Pauahi Street, Suite 3 <br /> Hilo,Hawaii 96720-3043 <br /> Dear Mr. Yuen: <br /> Subject: Dennis D. Smith <br /> Change of Zone Application (REZ 05-027) <br /> TMK: 7-3-24: 008 <br /> Thank you for requesting our review of the subject application. <br /> The applicant proposes to subdivide the existing 21.992 acre lot into seven 3 acres+acre lots. <br /> These lots are intended to be used as residential/agricultural lots. We have no objection to the <br /> proposed change in zoning, but we are concerned with the number of past zoning and land use <br /> changes in the Kaloko Mauka Subdivision area and the resultant cumulative impact on the <br /> intersection of Mamalahoa Highway and Kaloko Drive. <br /> It is our understanding that the County will be responsible for implementing required <br /> improvements at the intersection. Improvements to the intersection should include, but not be <br /> limited to the following: <br /> 1. Illuminating the intersection at night. <br /> 2. Channelized turning movements at the intersection; and <br /> 3. Other safety improvements. <br /> All improvements should be made at no cost to the State and plans for construction work within <br /> the State highway right-of-way must be submitted to our Highways Division for review and <br /> approval. <br /> a <br /> 06 010044 <br />
