Recomended Hāmākua CDP Policy Rationale

Home

'0 ka mea kupono'aina ka mea kupono kanaka. What is good for the land is good for the people. Each CDP policy was developed systematically, using the best available information about Hamakua and the range of strategies available to achieve the Community Objectives. This Addendum summarizes the rationale behind the policies so that the systematic process of policy development is transparent. The rationale for each CDP policy is based on a Strategy Identification Matrix based on information in the CDP Appendices V4A, V4113, and V4C from 2013-2014. The Rationale Addendum to the CDP contains the policy rationale for County policies and Kokua Actions. For rationale pertaining to Community Actions, please see a separate document - the Community Action Guide. In this document, all references to the General Plan refer to the County of Hawai'i General Plan, February 2005 (As Amended) — unless otherwise noted. In the case of conflicts between a CDP and the General Plan, the General Plan prevails. Note: the CDP Rationale is an abridged document intended to be used as a supplementary document for further information on the proposed policies and kokua actions within the draft plan. Therefore, this document does not include the complete Introduction to the CDP, or other various sections and headers included within the Hamakua Community Development Plan. Some rationale headers will skip in sequence for CDP material not included in this document, so please refer to the Draft Plan document to see the plan in its entirety, available at www.hamakuacdp.info. 9 1 P a g e
