■ Consider expanding or sharing N. Hilo policing jurisdiction to include parts of rural South Hilo (Honomu and Pepe'ekeo) to increase response times in these rural areas,- Policy reas, Policy 110 Use alternative energy sources at County facilities within the Planning Area. ■ Add electric vehicle charging stations at appropriate facilities, ■ Add solar lighting in appropriate parking areas, ■ Add photovoltaic systems and/or solar hot water systems to appropriate facilities. 2.11 Public Works Policy 37 Assess siting options for and develop new scenic lookouts along Highway 19 (work with State DOT) and along the Old Mdmalahoa Highway as appropriate to ensure important views (coastal, mountain, and waterfall) are preserved from development and that there are various opportunities to view these scenic resources throughout the three districts of the Hdmdkua Planning Area. (GP 7.3(c)) Policy 38 Prioritize maintaining the views at scenic overlooks with a frequently maintained vegetation management program. Coordinate this work with the regular roadway vegetation management maintenance program. Current scenic overlooks in the Planning Area are located in: • Laupdhoehoe on Highway 19; • Onomea Scenic Route, • Waipi'o Valley Lookout Policy 41 Increase capacity to provide education and outreach and enforce conditions on grading and grubbing permits to require screen planting, erosion control planting, or other treatments to maintain the good appearance of graded areas, reduce the detrimental impact on adjacent properties, and protect watersheds. (HCC 10-12 (c)) Policy 49 Identify government roads (including roads -in -limbo, 'paper roads' and train infrastructure remnants) with public access value for trails. If these are being obstructed by private parties, work to remove the obstructions. This policy is specific to publicly owned roads -in - limbo or old road rights-of-way that are best adapted to trail use; however, for CDP policies relating to the adoption of 'roads -in - limbo' into the current County of Hawai'i road inventory, see Policy 68, and Policy 71. It is important to note that not all train infrastructure remnants are government owned — some are now private and therefore would not relate to this policy. Policy 50 Prior to disposing of, leasing, or transferring public lands, including public roads or trails, public access potentials will be assessed, documented, and protected if public access use is in the public's interest. (HRS §46-1.5 and §171-26) Policy 66 Identify suitable/priority locations for bicycle lanes and paths, walkways, and jogging paths, and set funding priorities (especially in coordination with roadway for improvements such as widening, restriping, ADA improvements, etc.) 23 Hdmdkua CDP Guidance to Agencies
