the Single-Family Residential zoned land the Zoning Code does provide the option of applying for a use permit to allow the establishment of a medical clinic on residential zoned lands, which is why you have the application before you today. The next slide depicts the County General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map. The yellow represents Low Density Urban which is basically Single-Family Residential uses. And this orange color here represents Medium Density Urban which would accommodate higher density residential uses such as apartment complexes, as well as various commercial type of uses. And as you can see the applicant’s property highlighted in red is situated within that Medium Density urban designation. This is a copy of a map representing the regional town center for Pāhoa, as depicted within the Puna Community Development Plan. The dotted lines represent the outline of those lands designated as the Pāhoa Regional Town Center. As you can see, right here indicated by the green dot, that is the location of the subject property which sits or resides within the proposed town center boundaries. This is an aerial photo of the subject area. Again, the property is, once again, outline in red. As you can see there is an existing single-family dwelling located on the property. It sits roughly 80 feet from the Old Pāhoa Village Road, which is shown off to your left, as well as about 15 feet from its property boundaries with the adjoining single-family residential dwelling. This complex here is Paul’s Repair which resides on commercially designated lands . Across the street you have the Sacred Hearts Church. And, again, there are single-family residences in this location. Off to the bottom of the map resides a Kamehameha School facility, as well as Pāhoa High School. Getting into the details of the proposed request, the applicant wishes to secure a Use Permit to allow the establishment of a medical clinic that will provide quality primary health care services to Pāhoa Village and surrounding communities. An existing 2,457-square foot dwelling and attached carport will be converted to accommodate the proposed medical clinic. Staff will include two Family Nurse Practitioners working as primary care providers in collaboration with a Medical Doctor, a Registered Nurse, a certified Dietitian, a Behavioral Health Specialist, and a receptionist. Hours of operation is proposed from Monday through Friday 7 o’clock to 5:00 p.m. each day and every other Saturday from 8 o’clock in the morning to noon. Approximately 4 to 6 clients per hour will be cared for at the clinic. This is a depiction of the applicant’s site plan. Pāhoa Village Road is at the bottom of this site plan. And as you may note there’s a proposed future road widening setback approximately, I’m sorry not approximately, exactly 15 feet in width. Pāhoa Village Road itself fronting the property is approximately 44 feet in width. Once again, the property sits about 15 feet from its side property boundary with the adjoining single-family dwelling located to the left of the map and approximately 140 feet from Pāhoa Village Road. And off to your right of the map is where Paul’s Repair is situated. As you can see there’s a driveway leading up to the existing home, and the proposed parking is located along that boundary, common boundary, with Paul’s Repair. 2 EXHIBIT B
