district classification from Unzoned and Agricultural (A- la) to Agricultural (A-500a) at Waimea,
South Kohala, Hawaii, covered by tax map key 6-5-001-020.
The 2005 Hawai'i County General Plan states that -[t]he pastures and pu`u immediately above
Waimea Town have been identified as a vista of exceptional natural beauty." Changing the
district classification of the subject parcel to Agricultural (A-500x) will preserve the natural
