SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to Bill No. 29; An Ordinance Amending Chapter 25,
Article 3, Section 25-3-3, of the Hawaii County Code 1983 (2016 Edition, as
Amended), Relating to the Establishment of Zoning Districts.
Transmitted herewith are proposed amendments to Bill No. 29. The amendments are shown
below in Ramseyer format with respect to the contents of Bill No. 29; material to be deleted is
bracketed and stricken, and material to be added is underscored.
SECTION 1 of Bill No. 29, which amends article 3, section 25-3-3, of the Hawaii County Code
1983 (2016 Edition, as amended) by amending subsection (a), is amended to read as follows:
"(a) Any of the districts listed in sections 25-3-1 and 25-3-2 [per�] shall be
established for any portion of the County by being described by metes and bounds
and in map form[;] as prepared by a licensed surveyor, except that, when deemed
appropriate by the director, other means of description may be used in lieu of metes
and bounds to establish any district under section 25-3-2. In case of conflict
between a zoning map and metes and bounds description delineating district
boundaries, the latter shall control. In case of conflict between a zoning map, and
any summary of ordinances as provided by subsection (d) below on one hand, and
duly enacted ordinance on the other, the provisions of the ordinance shall be
authoritative. As between ordinances, the provisions of an ordinance enacted later
in time shall control."
A copy of the new draft of this bill that would result if these proposed amendments were adopted
is not attached.
