The applicant intends to establish a fire station complex on an 8-acre property. This particular <br />property is a portion of a 19-acre site. However, we are just reviewing, for this particular <br />purpose, the special permit for the 8-acre area. Proposed on the property would be a fire station <br />that would hold three bays for the vehicles, up to six vehicles. There would be some exercise <br />rooms, storage area, and areas for the fire fighters to utilize. Also proposed would be a pump <br />house and storage shed which would be on the north side of the property. There would be a <br />helipad which would eventually, would be the future; and, also a recreational area for the fire <br />fighters. Access would be from the Keaau-Pahoa Road at the northern side of the property, at <br />this particular location. Just for your information, this particular area, the remaining 11 acres <br />would eventually be utilized for a park site, as well as for a police station. However, as I <br />indicated earlier, thats not part of the requested area. <br />Since the improvements will be utilizing County funds, the applicant had complied with <br />Chapter 343, the environmental law; and they have filed a finding of no significant impact to the <br />OfficeofEnvironmentalQualityControl. <br />ThePlanningDirectorisrecommendingapprovalofthisparticularrequest,withconditions.Are <br />there any questions? <br />GALDONES:Commissioners, any questions of Norman? <br />SPRINGER:Mr. Chair? <br />GALDONES:Commissioner Springer. <br />SPRINGER:Norman, that future park site, would that be like a ballfield, recreational <br />park? <br />HAYASHI:Thats correct.
