Revision Rationale: The Planning Division noted that a LUPAG Amendment would be necessary for this type of Change of Zone to Industrial so this language was added. The Planning Division also noted that use permits on highly productive Agricultural lands are not appropriate as per criteria set forth in HRS 205, and so the criteria was included to ensure consistency with State land use requirements.
