to highlight the changes that have been made to the Village Design Guidelines out of the <br /> <br /> <br />Kona Community Development Plan. <br /> <br /> <br />Marni Herkes moved to have the Action Committee recommend to the Planning Director to <br /> <br />adopt the VDG by Rule with the understanding that measures of Article 1 in the original <br /> <br /> <br />document be included into the Planning Department deliberations. Bob Ward seconded for <br /> <br />discussion. <br /> <br /> <br />The Planning Department and the Action Committee will need to discuss how the <br /> <br />calibrated VDG adopted. Either as a Planning Department Rule or to amend the KCDP <br />  <br />to change attachment “B.” <br />  <br />The Planning Department is also looking into amending the Zoning Code, Project <br />  <br />District to allow for some light industrial uses. <br />  <br />A red-line version of the VDG would really help and assist in the discussion and analysis. <br />  <br />What happened to Article 1 of the VDG from the KCDP? Needs to be incorporated back <br /> <br />in, in its entirety (Any amendments should be made from Article 2) <br /> <br /> <br />To be used for Transit Oriented Development (TOD) circles and also in Traditional <br /> <br />Neighborhood Development (TND). <br /> <br /> <br />The Planning Director requested that the Action Committee take the time to deliberate <br /> <br />section by section to make sure that the VDG that gets adopted has been thoroughly <br /> <br />reviewed and is consistent with the vision of the KCDP. Target for the recommendation <br /> <br />to the Planning Department in 4 – 5 months and adoption in the spring. <br /> <br />Any important issues, comments, concerns please send to Allen Salavea. Allen will <br /> <br />compiled all and at a future meeting they can be addressed/answered. <br /> <br />Within the Executive Summary reference is made to the removal of Palm Trees from the <br /> <br />recommended trees within the VDG which is questionable. <br /> <br /> <br />Why have the Affordable Housing minimum requirements been taken out of the VDG. <br /> <br />What is a significant amount of a greenbelt? <br /> <br /> <br />What is the commitment to open space? <br /> <br />Some of the roadway changes are not consistent throughout the document. <br /> <br />5.
