The improvements within the 60 foot wide right-of-way shall be privately owned and maintained unless a road lot is created and dedicated to the County of Hawaii." 2. Reasons for the Request: According to the applicant, they request that the water and road infrastructure improvements should be implemented in conjunction with a subdivision and not a certificate of occupancy for a structure or use when not accompanied by a subdivision. The reason is that the requirement for the industrial or commercial level roadway improvements is specifically triggered or called for in the Subdivision Code and not necessarily triggered when one seeks a building permit for a permitted use. Furthermore,the applicant believes that the water requirement is driven by the industrial zoning and any subdivision based on that zoning designation. Lastly,the applicant states that the requirement or standard, like the road improvement requirement, would not be applicable if a use were permitted with a Special Permit. Therefore, the applicant is requesting similar consideration,i.e. that the road and water infrastructure improvements be deferred to the subdivision and not building permit process. 3.
