Steering Committee Review of Community Input, September 2016 Review Document 1 of 4 <br />Pupukohi i holomuo <br />Unite to move forward <br />3A Land Use & Settlement Patterns <br />LUPAG - General <br />■ The green, open areas shown on pg. 40 for <br />Pauka'a indicate all residences on makai side of <br />Pauka'a Dr. is an open area ... same for the <br />adjacent residences on Kuikahi St. The green <br />areas should be redrawn to shown the existing <br />residential lots. Appears this situation may also <br />exist elsewhere along the coast. [No Change — <br />this is a misunderstanding of LUPAG Open <br />designation and intent.] <br />■ Any parcel less than 20 acres should not be <br />rezoned to "Important Agricultural Land." They <br />should be rezoned to "Rural" or left as they <br />currently are as "LDU". I own a 15 acre farm <br />which has not been able to be economically <br />sustainable over the 13 years we have owned it, <br />despite being certified organic and selling high <br />value products such as papaya, lychee, citrus, <br />bananas, avocados and other fruits and growing <br />Iamb meat. Expecting any parcel less than 20 <br />acres to be an economically viable unit is <br />extremely dubious. [No Change: this is a <br />misunderstanding of the Agricultural LUPAG <br />designation.] <br />LUPAG — Papa`ikou <br />■ Like the LUPAG proposed changes in Papa'ikou <br />[No Change, supporting comment] <br />■ Papa'ikou Point should stay Ag as proposed on <br />LUPAG maps. [SC Deliberation: See LUPAG <br />revisions) <br />■ Papa'ikou Point near Mill Rd should be Urban <br />Residential since infrastructure is right there. <br />Landowner not clear about why the Ag -Urban <br />line was drawn along this road. [SC <br />Deliberation: See LUPAG revisions.] <br />■ 1 live in mauka Onomea and have a 26 acre <br />FARM where my family and I grow much of our <br />own food. We have animals and greenhouses <br />and many gardens with staple crops. <br />I would like to comment in SUPPORT of the <br />proposed LUPAG amendments that "adjust the <br />makai coastal agricultural areas between Mill <br />Road and makai of Kalaniana'ole School to <br />LUPAG Agricultural to be consistent with their <br />current County zoning and the State Land Use <br />Agricultural District." We MUST "protect <br />productive agricultural lands and their <br />associated open space assets within the coastal <br />and SMA lands makai of the Highway 19."
