Communication no. 2017-03 from Makaeo north to Kikaua Pt. at the Kuki`o development. Most of this area is already publicly owned and much of it has already been set aside for park purposes. This incorporates the Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park, the portion of Kohanaiki that will be deeded to the County under the terms of the existing SMA permit, the makai portion of O`oma 2, NELHA and state lands makai of the airport runway, to the extent that they can be used for public recreation consistent with the requirements of NELHA and the airport, the Kekaha Kai State Park, and Makalawena. Objective LU -2: Urban Area Growth Management. Recognizing that the LUPAG Urban Area is larger than needed in order to accommodate the projected growth within the planning horizon, future growth within the Urban Area shall be encouraged in a pattern of compact villages at densities that support public transit. Policy LU -2.1: Village Types Defined—Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs) vs. Traditional Neighborhood Developments (TNDs). Both TODs and TNDs are compact mixed-use villages, characterized by a village center within a higher -density urban core, roughly equivalent to a 5 -minute walking radius (1/4 mile), surrounded by a secondary mixed-use, mixed -density area with an outer boundary roughly equivalent to a 10 -minute walking radius from the village center (1/2 mile). The distinction between a TOD and TND is that the approximate location of a TOD is currently designated on the Official Kona Land Use Map (Figure 4-7) along the trunk or secondary transit route and contains a transit station, while TND locations have not been designated and may be located off of the trunk or secondary transit route at a location approved by a rezoning action. Policy LU -2.2: TOD/TND Components. The components of a TOD/TND include Urban Core, Secondary Core, and Greenbelt. A TOD/TND contains a higher density urban core surrounded by a lower density secondary area. A greenbelt 4should, in turn, surround and define the outer edge of the secondary area. 1. Urban Core: To control the scale and intensity of development within the urban core of a TOD/TND, there shall be two types of urban cores: a. Regional Center. Regional centers are intended for mixed use and higher -density residential, retail, commercial, employment, and/or regional one -of -a -kind facilities, such as major civic, medical, education, and entertainment facilities. Regional centers shall be designed around a Commercial Center, which is the focus for the Village and designed to encourage pedestrian activity. b. Neighborhood Village. Neighborhood Village Core Areas are intended for predominately residential, public/civic uses, or small- scale neighborhood -oriented commercial uses. The Core's commercial uses are of a small scale and are intended to serve the needs of the Village residents. Neighborhood Village Core Areas shall be designed around a Neighborhood Center.
