To fuirtheir Coirrurnuinity Objectives #1 and #2 in guiding developirneint, a review of the current Iland uses and designations in co stall areas was performed and Chain es acre recoirrurneinded in aireas snot yet developed but have LUIPAG designations that guide future developirneint to this coastalI airea., IRecolrrurneindatiiolrns acre irnade in these undeveloped coastWl aireas -to protect the shoreline as open space and priority viewslheds w1heineveir possible. The exceptions to this acre w1hein coastalI aireas acre already designated within the State Land Use Urban District and/oir acre already County-zoined for iresideirrtialI or coirnirneircialI uses., See Factor I firoirn PoIli cy 1, above., This 1pollicy is consistent with existing GeineiralI ILII«ern Policy 83 (d), "Flirotect the slioire]Hriie firoirn the einciroadhirneint of irnain -irnade irnpiroveirneints and structures" and (HIRS 205A-2(c)(3(D)), "Encourage those developirneints that acre inot coastalI delpenage nt to locate in inland aireas." Examples of ffiis (,all be seen all ffie proposed changes m Pdpa'ikou and 0'6ka1a. *COMMENT: These considerations are not relevant to the changes in the Laupahoehoe LDU because none of the Laupahoehoe LDU is "coastal". The rationale cites Policy 4 to support "Taking parcel 055 out of LUP": Policy 4 In order -to pr s lry Ilarger Ilot agricull-turall Ilands -for productive agricull-turall use, allow nisi Tulle dev6opin'tein't on Iles near kirlban areas where an int r° i 't IIand us IWaetween residentiall and productive agricull-turall areas is consistent with the surrounding uses and rurall character. This is Irefllected in the location of "Ruiral" (R) aireas on the officialI Land Use IPolllicy IMalp, w1hich is intended to facilitate Chain gesof zone to "ResideintialI and AgiriculltuiralI District" (IRA) or the "Fairnily AgiriculltuiralI District" (FA).

This 1pollicy is intended to set appirolpiriate ciriteiria for w1hein this IRuiralI designation can be used., Note the GeineiralI Plain's LUIPAG description for IRuiralI desciribes the category as including existing subdivisions in the State Land AgiriculltuiralI and IRuiralI districts that lamas a significant iresideintialI coirnpoineint., While Irrulr«SII llot sizes can vairy firoirn 9,000-squaire feet to five acires, inew recoirrurneinded IRuiralI designations in the H5irnRua CUP have conrespoinding County zoining densities of a irnaxiirnuirn of I unit 1peir I acire., As noted in the GeineiralI Plain, the allowable uses within these aireas (with appirolpiriate zoining) irnay include coirnirneircialI facilities that seirve the iresideintialI and agiriculltuiralI uses in the airea, and coirrurnuinity and Ipubllic facilities. The IRuiralI designation does snot inecessairily irnean that these aireas should be fuirtheir subdivided to sirnalleir hots as irnost lack the infrastructure inecessairy to allow fuirtheir subdivision. The GeineiralI ILII«ern desciribes iruiralI developirneint t1hisway:: "RuiralI -style iresideintialI -agiriculltuiralI developirneints irnay include eitheir inew sirnall -scale iruiralI coirrurnuinities or extensions of existing iruiralI coirrurnuinities., Such developirneint provides opportunities for a irnix of iresideintialI and sirnall-scale agiriculltuiralI activities. However, the piriirnairy intent of these developirneintswould be to 1plroviide ain added Irainge to housing opportunities. Ahoing with this housing, the lairge hots of these iruiralI aireas will pirovide opportunities for pairt-dirne agriculture, gairdening activities and the Iraiislirng of livestock on a sirnall scale., By providing opportunities to satisfy the deirnaind for a iruiralI lifestyle on irnairgiinalI agiriculltuiralI land, the piressuires to develop irnpoirtaint agiriculltuiralI land for these 1prulrposes woulld be decireased.." (GeineiralI ILII«ern 14.2.1) This GeineiralI ILII«ern description of iruiralI -style IreslidentiA -agriculture developirneints 1plresents soirne airnbiguity, particularly about what constitutes "irnairgiinalI agiriculltuiralI lands" that acre appirolpiriate for this style of iruiralI iresideintialI developirneint., For the Iprulrposes of the H5irnRua CUP, the intent of recoirrurneinding LUPAG Ruirall designations in soirne aireas is to accoirrurnodate existing land uses, to circ ate a transition airea of sirnall fairirnhresideintialI land uses betweein the uirbain LDU and the lairgeir llot agiriculltuiralI (oftein Ag -20) aireas, and to accoirrurnodate a flexibility in housing options to 1plrovlide ain incentive to develop iruiralI 1paircells doseir to
