LUPAG — Laupahoehoe/Papa'aloa <br />Homesteads in Laupahoehoe are defacto rural; <br />but rural designation doesn't match. [SC <br />Deliberation: See LUPAG revisions] <br />TM K 3-5-004-054-000 <br />Per our discussion, in the subject line is the TMK <br />for the parcel I mentioned to you. It's just 1.885 <br />acres so it's not really a piece of land that could <br />be used for ag purposes. <br />If possible, I would like to see this parcel added <br />to the distinction for consideration of being re <br />ti <br />zoned to low density (yellow) on your pr <br />map. This parcel is just above Laupahoe <br />School. I think it would make a great lot <br />some smaller sized homes for teachers a <br />school. Finding housing is one of the chz <br />in attracting teachers to Laupahoehoe Sc <br />and this lot has the potential to help in c <br />solution for this issue. <br />Yes, I fully understand this is not a zoning <br />change, only a designation recommendation <br />change. [SC Deliberation: see LUPAG revisions] <br />(1) Parcel ID 3-5-004-003-0000\ 35-2120 <br />Hawaii Belt Rd. law <br />(2) Draft of Hamakua Development Plan (CDP) <br />Thank you for the information provided. Having <br />been unable to attend the Community Meetings, <br />it helped us to better understand the current <br />CDP Process. <br />The subject property was purchased by my wife <br />and me in June, 1994 and we have resided on it <br />since that date. We plan to continue to do so for <br />the future. <br />The property/parcel is bordered; on the South, <br />by the year round Kihalani Stream (with thick <br />trees and vegetation) on the East and North, by <br />250'-350' inaccessible, vertical cliffs; and, on the <br />West, by the Hawai'i Belt Road. It is not <br />contiguous to any other properties. <br />The property consists of approximately 11.71 <br />acres; with 6.2 acres maintained with 25 yr. old <br />macadamia nut trees, with modest annual <br />income; one acre planted in mixed/mature <br />tropical fruit trees; two and one-half acres in <br />home and lawn use; and, two acres in mixed <br />wooded growth, stream -gulch area. <br />The property is directly accessible by drive -way, <br />from the Hawaii Belt Road. It possesses <br />approved underground utilities -connection. <br />Importantly, the Mauka West areas of the <br />bordering Hi -Way contain the Laupahoehoe <br />Transfer Station, Swimming Pool, Library and <br />Laupahoehoe Charter School. <br />The property has always had dedicated <br />agricultural/conservation/homeowner usage, or <br />some combination thereof. There are no plans <br />to request changes of its usage. <br />I am writing to object to the 2016 Draft of the <br />Hamakua CDP, effectively rezoning/categorizing <br />all of our property status/use (LUPAG) as <br />"OPEN". <br />A "Rural" designation is more appropriate <br />/acceptable. <br />In summary, I/We do not concur with the re- <br />designation/rezoning/re-classification of all our <br />property to "OPEN". We desire to retain all <br />currently existing rights to our property, <br />including the ability to rebuild our home/garage, <br />in the unlikely event of a disaster: Hurricane, <br />Fire or Earthquake.... among others.
