Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Bill No. 2, reports as follows:
Bill No. 2, transmitted by Mayor Han•y Kim via Communication No. 8, dated November 16,
2004, amends Section 25-8-22 (Puna District Zone Map), Article 8, Chapter 25 of the Hawai' i
County Code, by changing the District Classification from Open (O) to Family Agriculture
(FA-2a) at Tax Map Key 1-4-73:1 in Kapoho, Puna, Hawaii.
Fay Machielse and Mark Dziatko requested this change for approximately 4.861 acres at the
eastern end of Milani Rd. and approximately 0.6 miles from the Milani Rd. Kapoho-Beach Lots
Road intersection, Vacationland Hawaii Subdivision, Unit II, Kapoho, Puna, Hawaii.
The applicants are requesting the change in order to construct a 2-bedroom dwelling for their
principal residence on approximately one acre of the site, and plant a small, non-commercial
orchard. They have no plans to subdivide at this time.
Communication No. 8 reports that the Hawaii County Planning Commission considered the
above request and concurred with the Planning Director's favorable recommendation on this
matter.
fhe change in zoning request conforms to the goals of the General Plan economic and land use
elements, and to the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map. The
change is consistent with the existing agricultural zoning of properties within the Vacationland
Hawaii Subdivision.
Conditions of approval require that the applicants notify the Department of Land and Natural
Resources Historic Preservation Division (DLNR-HPD) should any unidentified sites or remains
he encountered, and then proceed only upon an archaeological clearance from the DLNR-HPD.
Your Committee concurs with the Planning Commission and the Planning Director's favorable
recommendation on this matter.
