Approval of the requested Non-Significant Gone Change is in compliance with the General Plan. The project site is situated within an area designated for resort, low density urban, and urban expansion uses by the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) map. Approval of the non-significant zone change will provide for approximately 13 acres of Single- Family Residential (RS) zoned lands and 27 acres of Multi-Family (RM) zoned lands. Therefore, approval of this reyucst will be consistent with the classification of the subject property by the 2005 LUPAG map. Approval of the Non-Signitcant Zone Change will not result in a net increase in the density allowed in the zoning districts containing the affected area. The differential between existing and proposed zone district areas is 0.113 acres, which results in a net decrease of 0.85% of land area in the RS-10 zoning district. Also, the request is for less than one acre of increase or decrease in the area of each zoning district. Upon review of the request, we have determined that it complies with the criteria set forth in Section 25-2-45(a)(L) of Chapter 25, Hawaii Cow~ty Code, for determining non-significant zoning changes. "Che adjustment of zoning boundaries will not result in the increase in the zoning densities. Based on the above, we hereby administratively grant the requested non- signi6cantzoning changes.
