Background and County Environmental Report ATTACHMENT TO CHANGE OF ZONING APPLICATION Applicant: 130 Holdings LLC Tax Map Key: 3/1 -6- 010 -083 ORCHIDLAND CENTER A. SUBJECT REQUEST 1. The applicant, 130 Holdings LLC, is requesting a Change of Zone from A -3A to CV 1A (Commercial Village) in order to establish a small neighborhood shopping center which will provide convenient access to goods and services for people who live and work within the surrounding neighborhoods. The project consists of five (5) separate buildings containing approximately 24,000 square feet in total leasable area. Phase One presently has two (2) building shells constructed; Building A containing an area of approximately 6,400 square feet, which is intended for retail /office space, and Building B containing an area of approximately 4,000 square feet, which is intended for restaurant use. Phase 2 consists of Building C, containing an area of 4,800 square feet, Building D, containing an area of 4,000 square feet, and Building E, containing an area of 4,800 sf. The specific uses of these buildings in Phase 2 has not been determined. If the Change of Zone request is approved, the types of use would be much broader and could potentially serve the surrounding communities better. The applicant's intention is to complete Phase 1 of the proposed project by March, 2015, with Phase 2 anticipated to be completed by March, 2019. Under Special Permit No. 870 approved use was for a regional trade center to include a variety of home, garden and animal supplies, catchment supplies, sales and services, and other trade related businesses. The permit was later amended to include food service. The applicant's objective is to create a neighborhood shopping center, rather than a trade center, setting a precedence for the area and offering the community a variety of services and supplies, including medical and social services. By requesting a Change of Zone to CV -1a, we would like to include a gas station, convenience store, Laundromat, and other multiple uses allowed under the CV zoning code. The center will be accommodating tenants. Until we have tenants, we cannot state what all the uses will be. The property is situated approximately nine hundred (900) feet Mauka of the Keaau- Pahoa Highway on the Hilo side of Orchidland Drive immediately Mauka of the
