Agricultural to the Urban District will not conform to Section 205-2, Chapter 205, Hawaii
Revised Statutes (HRS), the Hawaii Land Use Commission Rules, the Hawaii State Plan
and the County General Plan; and the change of zone from Agricultural 1-acre to
Industrial-Commercial Mixed 1-acre to develop aself-storage facility, is contrary to the
Land Use goals and policies of the General Plan, and would not result in an appropriate
land use pattern nor further the public convenience, necessity and general welfare.
