Fax(808)961-8742 <br /> Mr. Steven S.C. Lim <br /> Carismith Ball LLP <br /> 121 Waianuenue Avenue <br /> Hilo,HI 96721 <br /> Dear Mr. Lim: <br /> SUBJECT: General Plan LUPAG Map and Kona CDP Determination <br /> Tax May Key: (3) 7-5-17.43; Puayuala 1st,North Kona District.Hawaii <br /> This is in response to your February 8,2010 letter requesting the Planning Director's interpretation <br /> of the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide(LUPAG)map designation for TMK 7-5- <br /> 17:43 and whether the subject property is located inside the Kona Urban Area as defined in the Kona <br /> Community Development Plan(CDP). <br /> The General Plan LUPAG map designation for the subject property is Urban Expansion Area. <br /> In the Official Kona Land Use Map(Figure 4-7)in the Kona CDP,the line indicating the boundary <br /> of the Kona Urban Area runs through the property in a north-south direction. According to the <br /> official map metadata(enclosed)contained in"Attachment A"of the Kona CDP, the Kona Urban <br /> Area boundary line traces the LUPAG boundaries so that urban designations (ie. urban expansion <br /> area, low density urban, industrial) are within the Kona Urban Area and rural designations (ie. <br /> important agricultural land) are outside of the Kona Urban Area. Therefore, since the property's <br /> LUPAG designation is Urban Expansion Area,the property is also determined to be entirely within <br /> the Kona Urban Area. <br /> Should you have questions, please contact Maija Cottle of my staff at 961-8159. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> OJ LEITHEAD TODD <br /> Planning Director <br /> MJC:smn <br /> P:\wpwin60\Maija\Letters\Determination\GP\Lim-7-5-17-43.doc <br /> Encl: Pg. 6-7, Attachment A- Kona CDP <br /> xc: Long Range Planning Division <br /> Kona Planning Office <br /> Hawaii Count),is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br /> Exhibit A <br />
