BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS SERVICE CATEGORY (Include scope, size, and cost) <br />The 0`ahu General Plan is a collection of overarching objectives <br />and policies that guides land use, development, growth and <br />capital improvements expenditures within the County, with a <br />planning horizon of 25 years. <br />First adopted in 1977, the City Charter requires that the General <br />Plan be reviewed at least every 10 years. HHF is proud to be <br />working with the City and County of Honolulu's Department of <br />Planning and Permitting (DPP) as the lead consultant to update <br />the City's General Plan. This current effort is focused on <br />updating objectives and policies related to 0`ahu's overall <br />growth, the economy, affordable housing and sustainability. <br />Discussion about amending the General Plan to recognize the <br />concept of sustainability as a fundamental city policy is a key <br />issue for this update, as the movement to promote <br />sustainability can influence the choices residents make in their <br />daily lives and shape land use and future development on <br />0`ahu. For an island community like 0`ahu, sustainability <br />principles focus on encouraging self-sufficiency and self- <br />reliance, and reducing dependence on imported products. <br />Through a series of community meetings and a web -based <br />public survey, HHF has identified specific land use and policy <br />considerations to address sustainability, such as promoting the <br />use of local resources to generate energy, increasing the <br />consumption of locally -grown food, promoting land use <br />development forms that encourage compact and mixed -use <br />development at higher densities, supporting multi -modal <br />transportation networks, transit -oriented developments and <br />energy -efficient building design, reducing material <br />consumption and expanding reuse/recycling, and seeking a <br />diversified, resilient economy. <br />Project Cost: $394,999 Project Photography Services: $24,975 <br />w <br />4 <br />'a <br />r <br />r aRLP <br />U 2035: p. <br />�NpOCUSED UPOpTE <br />25.
