5. CDMMUNITY PROFILE: (Provide a brief nerrarive in accordance with insvuctlons)
Population Characteristics. Population in the County of Hawaii rose from 63,468 in 1970
to an estimated 78,900 in 19782, an increase of 24.3 percent. Population projections
are 84,700 for 1980 and 95,200 for 19853. Although projections for districts in Hawaii
County are not available, it is expected that the Scuth Hilo, Puna, South Kohala, and
North Kona districts will experience the greatest population growth in the next 10-15
years4. No data is available on changes in racial composition because different defini-
tions for ethnic stock were used for different sets of population data5.
Income Characteristics. The percentage of persons below the poverty level was 18.8 in
1975b. The percent of households below poverty level rose from 14.1 in 19701 to 19.4 in
19756. The percent of low/moderate income families was 37.2 in 19701.
Economic Conditions. Because of changes in the employment statistic methodology, com-
parisons with 1977 data are not possible.. Based on existing data, this area appears to
have stabilized with little or no change from the previous year. Unemployment in Sep-
tember 1978 was 10.5 percent which means that 3,800 persons of the total civilian labor
force of 36,000 were without jobs7. Employment in manufacturing has steadily declined
since 1975 from 3,000 employees in 1974 to 5,300 in 19784.
Housing Conditions. Information on the degree of housing overcrowding is not readily
available. The recent Daly study defined "crowded" as households with more than one
person per room8.and cites households with crowding problems to be only 5 percent of
the total households.9 However, the concept of overcrowding is highly subjective .
No statistics are kept on the number of abandoned units.
During 1978, 1,716 'new housing units were authorized and 1,382 residential permits
were issued.4

5. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING NEEDS: (Proridea brie!nar,arire in accordance with inirructiom)
A. Neighborhood Revitalization Needs. Major needs in the city of Hilo include slum
clearance, public parking, beautification, right of way improvements and public
facilities for areas of downtown.! Some buildings which pose slum, blight and fire
hazards need to be demolished and the residential and business tenants relocated.
Facilities and services to enable low and moderate income persons to work in the
proposed commercial reuse area in the Ponahawai block are needed. Further integra-
tion of ethnic and cultural activities and festivities into the downtown could help
draw people to the area. Housing is needed for the 50 residential tenants currently
living in substandard and deteriorated housing in the Ponahawai block which is
planned for redevelopment.
Needs in other neighborhoods throughout the community will be assessed after com-
pletion of the Community Development P1ans2,3,4,5 and Village and Urban Design
Plans currently being prepared.6,7.8,9,10
Two fringe areas of the city, 1) the University sector (characterized by low income
housing, elderly housing, and student housing) and 2) the Villa Franca area (old
substandard housing 'area) are in need of upgraded facilities in the form of safer
pedestrian access to shopping and improved water lines.
B. Communitywide Housing Needs. A recent islandwide Housing Market Analysisll
indicated the major need is located in the South Hilo and Kona districts. In
other rural areas the County is working with the large employers and labor'
unions to identify housing needs of the active and retired sugar company
employees. .
A housing needs survey of the Kona district is presently being tabulated.
The Housing Assistance Plan has been developed for the whole community of the
Big Island. A new three-year plan will be developed in 1979.
one hundred sixteen additional allocations are needed for Section 8 existing
housing to increase the choice and availability of housing for low and mod-
erate income persons.
A State Fair Housing Act is already in force although fair housing opportunity
has never been in jeopardy in the community. The final arbiter in the situ-
ation has been and continues to be economic (ability to pay).

C. Community Needs for Public Facilities and Improvements. The community's sparse
population, distributed widely over a large geographic area, results in needs for
such capital improvement projects as water, sewers, roads, parking, and solid
waste disposal.
And for the elderly and handicapped especially, the .removal of architectural
barriers in numerous public facilities is needed.
Differences in climate and population density result in different districts
having different needs. The west side of the island with its potential for resort
development lacks an adequate potable water supply and system. Its agricultural
potential is considerably great but irrigation water is in short supply with no
system. The east side of the island also needs to revitalize its central city
core to more efficiently utilize the existing infrastructure and to clear blighted
conditions and to limit uneconomical urban sprawl.
Improving or developing multipurpose neighborhood facilities housing social ser-
vices are needed around the island. The need for other public facilities is des-
cribed in the Community Development Plans and Urban Design Plans currently under
preparation.2
In Hilo, pedestrian -orientated facilities in the form of sidewalk widening or
similar improvements, street furniture, landscaping, beautification, possible
conversion of a thoroughfare to a mall (at least partially covered for protection
from rain) are needed. Such traffic safety improvements as parking, intersections,
turning radii and widening are also needed.
Parking facilities and other incentives are needed to encourage government offices
and the private sector to re-establish in the downtown area, to increase the .
working population and increase the core's vitality and activity.
Social service and cultural programs and facilities in the area are also needed
to further activity and accommodate the disadvantaged. Because about half the
island's population resides in the South Hilo district, the greatest need is in
Hilo.
D. Economic Development Needs. Because of a high unemployment rate, an increase in
the development of tourism and agriculture and their spinoff industries is
needed. Generally, water development in west Hawaii's more arid (but also beach -
lined seacoast) areas would spark both tourism development and agriculture_2,4

Expansion of agricultural production and processing, service industries related
to tourism, and construction is needed to directly provide employment to the
lesser skilled and entry level worker.
New construction is needed to provide jobs for approximately 300 unemployed con-
struction workers receiving unemployment compensation in June, 1978. Women
share the unemployment problem with men and additionally experience severe under-
employment. Job training centers for low and moderate income persons who are
unemployed or underemployed are needed.
The economic decline of downtown Hilo needs to be stopped and a trend of decreasing
activity, compared to the city of Hilo as a whole, reversed. Downtown needs
public parking, right-of-way improvements, slum clearance, new retail and office
uses, and beautification. Consolidation and acquisition of small, irregularly
shaped parcels of land are needed to redevelop the Ponahawai block as a commercial
reuse area for downtown.'
Stimulii for investing and reinvesting in the City core of Hilo and the other
urban centers are needed. Incentives in the form of interest subsidies, low
interest loans, and certain grants could be programmed.
Improving the appearance of the downtown Hilo and other urban centers is also
needed, in the form of varied, private and public beautification, landscaping
and related endeavors.

5 COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY: !Provide a narrative in accordance with int Fnrcriont.)
A. General Strategy
The general development strategy for the next three years is aimed at stimulating
the economy and increasing employment opportunities for low- and moderate -income
persons. Revitalization of downtown Hilo is the key part of the .strategy. The
major objectives of the project are to expand the present use of the office core
at the Wailuku River end of the ten block city core and to redevelop a retail
and commercialcenter at the other end. The project will be part of a concen-
trated revitalization effort on the part of the County, business and private
citizens.
Priorities for the use of block grant -funds are:
1. Economic development stimulus;
2. Greater employment opportunities for low- and moderate -income persons;
3. Elimination of slum and blight; and
4. Expansion of housing for low- and moderate -income persons.
Downtown Hilo was selected for concentrated action for the following reasons:
1. Over half of the island's population lives in the South Hilo district and
a concentrated project there would affect'the most people;
2. Downtown revitalization was mandated by Ordinance 53, the Hilo Downtown
Development Plan, in 1974 and is thus supported by the County administra-
tion and the Council;
3. Citizen organizations support revitalization and plan to beautify the
downtown;
4. Downtown merchants, property owners and lease holders alike, have been
fixing up their buildings, making more attractive window displays and
supporting design criteria and beautification projects;
5. The revitalization proposal received strong support at an August 3, 1978
public hearing and no alternate proposals were submitted;
6. The revitalization of the County's central business district would probably
have a spin-off effect on improving the County's economy by encouraging
increased tourism and new commercial activity including construction;
7. Needs of the other areas of the island have been and will continue to be
addressed in entitlement applications;

IEPI—e{ Fo.m, HUD 7015.3 and HUD -7015.4, wfi;ch are obaolne Pam 1 of 6 Pagel HUD -7064 (6.78)
8. Review of past CDBG funding to mid -1978 shows that the east side of the island,
with 778 of the population,l has received only 518 of block grant funds, while
the west side,* with 238 of the population, has received 298 of the funds,
leaving 208 of funds used islandwide.
9. The growth of culture and arts activities in the last five years has centered
in downtown Hilo around Kulana Naauao and most recently, around the Federal
Building and Kalakaua Park and promises to entice both residents and tourists
into the area.
Expansion of an office core will be encouraged at the Wailuku River end of the
city core. Factors considered in the selection of this area are related to the
area's present use and the proximity of a low-income residential area. The
present complementary mix of office, retail, service, recreational and cultural
uses can be expanded to bring more people, both residents and tourists, into the
area, thus improving the economy. The area now houses many services for low and
moderate income persons, e.g., the Department of Social Services Food Stamp
Office, Child Support and Income Maintenance units, Hilo Counseling Center, Office
of Housing and Community Development, Corporation Counsel Child Support Division,
and the Department of Health (Health Education; Maternal and Child Health
Screening; Maternity and Infant Care; and Public Health .Clinic) . Expansion of
services as well as filling in some of the gaps in service to make this area a
social service nucleus will benefit the low and moderate income people who use
the services.
Additionally, the area is adjacent to the five -block Puueo area where approximately
200 units of Section 8 and FHA 236 assisted housing plus many low -rent substandard
houses are within walking distance (two blocks).
The present cultural hub of Kulana Naauao is fully used as a classroom for ethnic
arts and culture, a community theater and exhibit space; expansion of present
programs is most logically done in the immediate area. The expansion of theater
to Kalakaua Park in August and September for Hilo's first production of Shake-
speare drew over 3,600 spectators in 10 performances, showing that the park has
good potential for cultural uses. Drama and ethnic dances at the park may well
bring more tourists to the area, resulting in increased commercial and retail
activity -- another economic boost.
It is anticipated that increased pedestrian traffic will come to the downtown
with increased service, commercial, retail, recreational and cultural uses, and
this will result in a healthier economy. Creation of more offstreet parking will
encourage this increased activity.

The Ponahawai block, four and a half acres bounded by Ponahawai, Mamo, Kilauea
and Kamehameha, was selected for redevelopment into a commercial reuse area for
the following reasons:
1. It contains the most severe conditions of slum and blight in Hilo, with
55% of the buildings in poor condition and 37% in dilapidated condition.
2. The wooden buildings are a fire hazard; and
3. The block is composed of 25 irregularly shaped parcels most of which are
too small to be economically developed by any one individual owner.
Through a joint venture of the County and private property owners, land will be
acquired, consolidated, cleared, improved and leased to a developer for use as
a commercial reuse site and offstreet parking. Property owners will retain a
pro rata share of the block or sell their share to the County. The County
ultimately would resell its pro rata share, and would then refunnel the money
into other revitalization activities. It is anticipated that commercial reuse
of the block will be an incentive for the surrounding blocks to redevelop and
will bring more people and commerce into downtown.

B. Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy
1. Downtown Hilo is a Neighborhood Strategy Area.
a. Long term objectives are:
1. Provide an estimated 300 entry-level jobs in sales and service
for the commercial reuse area by 1982.
2. Develop improved, covered pedestrian walkway between office
core and commercial reuse area (Ponahawai block) possibly in
the form of a mall, along Keawe Street.
3. Integrate cultural, social, and recreational programs into
the city core area.
4. Develop a series of parking facilities in strategic locations
throughout the city core.
5. Increase office space and use in the city core area.
6. Improve vehicular traffic routing in the city core area.
Short term objectives are:
1. Seek funds for and construct a multi-level parking facility
in city core area by 1980.
2. Develop Ponahawai block parking by 1980.
3.. Provide construction jobs for the next three years (Ponahawai
block redevelopment).
4. Improve intersections and widen streets within the next three
years.
5. Eliminate slums, blight and fire hazards in the Ponahawai block
by 1980.
6. Provide standard housing for tenants in Ponahawai block by 1980.
7. Develop design criteria for Downtown Hilo by 1980.
8. Realign Kamehameha Avenue to provide landscaping and store front
parking by 1979.
9. Convert the former Police Station to a private business, govern-
ment office or public facility by 1979.
b. The physical improvements programs to be carried out with block grant
funds include plans, appraisals, acquisition, parking, relocation,
demolition, site clearance, improvements, design criteria, beautification
and park development.
C. No related programs such as Urban Homesteading or Section 8 rehabilita-
tion are contemplated.
d. Public services to be carried out in support of the physical improve-
ments projects may be job training and child care programs for low -
moderate income persons.
e. The schedule for implementation of block grant funded activities is in
three phases, starting in late 1978 after funds are released by HUD.
During 1978, beautification projects have been planned and will be
implemented by citizens groups during the next few years. Kamehameha
Avenue realignment, funded mainly by the State and County should be
implemented in early 1979. Ponahawai block acquisition, land consoli-
dation and development plans should begin in 1979. The Short Term
Objectives section above is the basic implementing schedule, further
described below.
The first year phase of the block grant activities would include:
planning, land acquisition and consolidation, and some relocation,
demolition and site clearance. The second year phase would include con-
tinued acquisition, relocation, site clearance, planning and development
for parking, and the commercial reuse planning. The third year phase
would complete relocation, site clearance and related activities in the
Ponahawai block as well as right of way and parking improvements through-
out the city,core's central business district. Ballfield relocation to
an area across the street on State land would be needed to permit Pona-
hawai Street extension to the Bayfront Highway. Plans for possible
onsite improvements for housing on public lands may be developed.
f. The anticipated resources are:
Amount Designated Funds Available
Block grant funds (Small Cities) $1,230,000 $686,000
(Entitlement) 180,000 270,000
County appropriations 2,019,700
State appropriations 1,047,000
Hawaii Redevelopment Agency account 350,000
$4,826,700 $958,000
Private investment is expected to initially contribute about $6 million
in construction of the commercial reuse area and between $2 and $3
million of "in kind" pooling of fee simple property for the joint ven-
ture redevelopment project (Ponahawai block).
-3-
g. Several neighborhood organizations are already working on revitaliza-
tion. The Downtown Improvement Association (DIA) and a beautification
committee plan to put palms in planter boxes on the sidewalks. The
DIA is working on revitalization and preservation and has prepared
drawings of Kamehameha Avenue buildings to aid in local renovation
efforts. The East Hawaii Cultural Council hopes to lease and renovate
the old Police Station for use as a community cultural center.
h. The housing assistance goals for 1978 to 1979 of 60 multi -family units
for the elderly in census tract 205 will provise Section 202/8 housing
opportunities for the tenants of the Ponahawai block. The Housing
Agency is applying for 100 additional Section 8 existing housing
allocations for 1979.
2. Other Neighborhood Improvement Efforts.
When all the community development plans for the districts of the island
are completed, they will be used as a basis for public and private improve-
ments. Input is also expected from OEO boards and the general public.
Certain public facilities need to be provided now in various low income
sectors to provide for standard public safety and health.
Sidewalks for basic access and pedestrian safety to shopping areas, and
water and road improvements are imminently needed in some areas.
C. Communitywide Housing Strategy
1. The County uses HAP Annual and three -goals for Hawaii County, to establish
short-term and long-term housing goals to assist low- and moderate -income
families. To implement its housing goals, the County works with other
governmental agencies, private developers and non-profit organizations to
produce housing. As part of its program to produce housing, the County
has commited Block grant funds to offset site -improvement costs for. several
elderly housing projects: .This was necessary to meet maximum amounts set
by the various programs such as Section 8 -FMR, or Section 202/8 -FMR.
2.. No regulatory or other actions are currently proposed other than the en-
forcement of existing health and building codes.
3. The County HAP reflects the County's program to provide low- and moderate -
income housing units by using Federal, State, and County housing programs
available to provide rental assistance, develop new rentals, and develop
new homes for sale.
4. Community facilities and improvements funded by Block Grant funds and the
Housing Assistance Plan is coordinated by the Office of Housing and Commu-
nity Development.
5. As part of the Hilo City Core improvements project, the Ponahawai Block
segment will displace about 40 low- and moderate -income residents. The
tenant residents may remain in the Hilo downtown area by receiving section
8 Existing Housing assistance or may request to move to.the proposed
Kamana Elderly Project, which is expected to be completed in the near
future.

D. Strategy for Providing Coimnuntywide Public Facilities and Improvements
The needs section for Public Facilities and Improvements in this application des-
cribes the projects and programs to be undertaken. Capital improvement projects
-follow the General Plan, Hilo Community Development Plan, and the Hilo Downtown
Development Plan. A combination of County, State, and Federal funds will be
used to implement them. The activities to be carried out, objectives to be
accomplished, anticipated timing and funding are described for downtown Hilo in
the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy of this application.
A strategy to meet needs for public facilities and improvements for the other
districts of the island will be developed after completion of the community
development plans for the island's six planning districts. Three are in public
draft form. Two are being developed, one is completed. Public input will also
help to shape the strategy.
The County has developed a Program for the Removal -of Architectural Barriers
to make County facilities accessible to the elderly and handicapped,
E. Economic Development Strategy
The following strategy is for Hilo; a strategy for the rest of the island will
be developed in the future, in accordance with the Community Development Plans
for each planning area. It appears that ways to secure water for the Kona
side will be given primary emphasis.
1. The lack of public offstreet parking and small parcel sizes in downtown has
made it difficult to attract private investment for anything larger than the
fast food chains which have started in the last five years. However, the
acquisition and consolidation of land in the Ponahawai block, street im-
provements and parking lot at the makai end of the block will enable the
start of larger scale private development. Offstreet public parking through-
out downtown and a multi-level parking deck in the office core should also
attract more investment.
The County has the bulk of the funds available for the Kamehameha Avenue
realignment to be constructed in early 1979.
2. The commercial reuse area in the Ponahawai block is expected to result in
300 entry level jobs in sales and service. Development of a child care
facility in downtown might better enable low- and moderate -income persons
to work in the new retail and commercial center. The County will look
into job training to assist residents.
3. Two financial institutions have expressed interest in leasing and improving
the old police station for use as a site for their businesses. A culture
and arts council has sought to lease the building for use as a community
art center.
-5-
� t
O
The Ponahawai block will be a commercial reuse area and a major store or
series of stores will be attracted by the land consolidation and improve-
ments. No developers have yet made any firm commitments, as the land is
not yet available.
4. County acquisition of lands in the Ponahawai block would be "temporary",
as the property or shares acquired/owned by the County would be ultimately
sold (County would not permanently remain as joint owner). The sale pro-
ceeds could be recycled for use in adjacent or other areas having similar
problems.
PROGRAM CRITERIA
The program will address the following criteria:
1. Support comprehensive neighborhood stabilization;
2., Provide for expanded economic opportunities for
persons of low and moderate income in the form of
permanent employment;
3. Benefit low and moderate income persons by re-
moving slums and blighted conditions;
4. Resolve a serious threat to the health and safety
of low and moderate income persons.
The slum removal will ultimately support the expansion of
housing for low and moderate income persons by requiring reloca-
tion of the approximately 50 residents to standard housing.

C
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS
The economic decline of downtown Hilo needs to be stopped
and a trend of decreasing retail sales, compared to the City of
Hilo as a whole, reversed. A program of public and private im-
provements and developments is proposed to stop the decline and
revitalize the downtown as a center of commerce, employment and
general business activity..
The major problems of downtown Hilo which the proposed
program will address are economic development stimulus, elimi-
nation of slums and blight conditions, employment opportunities
(entry-level), and beautification and design criteria to improve
appearances and preserve architectural forms and styles.
Community.development needs to be served by the proposed
program are as follows:
1. Some buildings which pose slum, blight and fire
hazards need to be demolished and the residential
and business tenants relocated.
2. Pedestrian -orientated facilities in the form of
sidewalk widening or similar improvements, street
furniture, landscaping and beautification are
needed. Auto traffic safety improvements as
parking, and road widening are also needed.
3. Parking facilities and other incentives are needed
to encourage government offices and private sector
to re-establish in the downtown area, to increase
the working population and increase its vitality
and activity.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The program is a portion of an overall comprehensive plan
to revitalize the older central city of Hilo, called downtown,
a tract of ten blocks comprising about 40 gross acres. (See map
on page A-2 of Appendix A).
The program is based on the Hilo Community Development Plan
which was funded by a Comprehensive Planning Grant from HUD in
1974 and the more detailed Hilo Downtown Development Plan.
Major projects include the following:
1. Ponahawai Block Commercial Anchor
2. Off -Street Parking/Site Clearance
3. Right-of-way Improvements
4. Hilo Alcoholism Receiving Project
5. Planning and Design Criteria for Downtown.
PONAHAWAI BLOCK PROJECT
This block bounded by Ponahawai, Kilauea, and Mamo Streets
and Kamehameha Avenue is the site for a retail anchor and public
parking.
Through a joint venture of the County and private property
owners, land will be acquired, consolidated, cleared, improved
and leased to a developer for use as a commercial reuse site and
offstreet parking. Property owners will retain a pro rata share
of the block or sell their share to the County. The County ulti-
mately would resell its pro rata share, and would then refunnel
the money into other revitalization activities. It is anticipated
3
I
that commercial reuse of the block will be an incentive for.the
surrounding blocks to redevelop and will bring more people and
commerce into downtown.
Property acquisition, relocation, demolition and site
improvement activities are to take place in this block with funds
requested.
HILO ALCOHOLISM RECEIVING PROJECT
The Big Island Council on Alcoholism proposes a drop-in
center, Hilo Alcoholism Receiving Project. Besides being the
soft ware project tending to the social adjustment needs of a
significant percentage of the project residents, the center will
help provide relocation and counseling services for the estimated
25 drop-in clients daily from among the residents in the Pona-
hawai Project area.
OFF-STREET PARKING/SITE CLEARANCE
A multi-level public parking structure at Keawe and Shipman
Streets is planned to serve the office core being developed in
that area. Land acquisition may be necessary to implement this
project for which plans are 95% complete.
A parking area to serve the Ponahawai Block commercial
reuse site is planned in connection with the redevelopment project.
It is aniticipated that the parking area will be financed primar-
ily through a parking improvement district program.
RIGHT-OF-WAY IMPROVEMENTS
Right-of-way improvements to be carried out as part of the
physical improvements program to downtown Hilo include:
I
• O O
1. Sidewalks
2. Overhangs
3. Streetscaping and beautification
4. Traffic Improvements
A citizen's group led an effort to beautify downtown Hilo
through a program of placing palm trees in planter boxes along
the streets of downtown. The palms will be placed on the
streets sometime in February.
A major project to improve traffic and parking conditions
in the downtown area began in March of this year. The project
entitled Kamehameha Avenue Realignment will shift the main
street, Kamehameha Avenue to the makai parking lot and bring the
parking lot next to the existing stores. Other traffic safety
improvements are planned in the downtown area.

Q
PLANNING AND DESIGN CRITERIA
Design criteria will be developed to improve downtown's
appearance and utilization. A criteria study and plan will be
involved to realize the basic document and guidelines. The
benefits of such construction and improvement guidelines will
be immeasurable in terms of the physical appearance of the city.
IMPACT ON PROGRAM DESIGN CRITERIA
COMPREHENSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD STABILIZATION
Trends throughout the nation show that reuse projects such
as the Ponahawai block retail anchor stimulate adjacent area to
improve. The joint venture approach described could be adapted
to successive blocks in the central core.
Increased parking facilities will provide a stimulus to
business as more people use the downtown core area.
Development of Urban Design criteria for improving downtown's
physical appearance will guide property owners in their improve-
ment projects and lend continuity and stability to the downtown
area.
G
EXPANDED ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES
New employment opportunities in construction, sales and
related services will result from the Ponahawai block reuse pro-
ject. The anticipated $6.25 million in construction will result
in new short term employment for low and moderate income persons.
Retailing and service occupations will engender an estimated 300
employees, about a five -fold increase over the 60 to 70 employees
presently in the Ponahawai block. Most of these new jobs would
be at entry level, thus offering significant employment opportu-
nities to those on the lower income scale.
Increased parking facilities will provide a stimulus to
business as more people use the downtown and the business upswing
should also help to create new jobs.
Increases in employment and business activity as a whole
are foreseen as a result of the program.
REMOVING SLUMS OR BLIGHTED CONDITIONS
The four-plus acre Ponahawai block contains 24 single wall
wood frame structures more than 45 years old and one 20 year old
hollow tile structure. All but one of the frame structures are
in either poor or dilapidated condition according to a struc-
tural engineer's report in April of 1978 and a Planning Depart-
ment survey. This block has about 50 residents., about 75 percent
of whom are elderly men under social security, pension or welfare
assistance. Rooming houses with shared common bath and cooking
facilities comprise all the accommodations except for three
single family dwellings which are severely dilapidated.
7
Because of the age and type of structures (wooden) it would
be impractical under the existing building code to improve them.
Consequently, clearance to remove these unsafe and blighting,
conditions if the most appropriate course of action.
The commercial reuse would result in the clearance of
blighting conditions, improvements to the land and new building
construction.
RESOLVE THREAT TO HEALTH AND SAFETY
Buildings are crowded together and fire could easily spread
throughout the Ponahawai block. Two fires have recently endan-
gered these tenants.
A relocation plan to assure that tenants are accommodated
satisfactorily will be carefully formulated. The tenants will
benefit by moving to safe, standard housing. The Hilo Alcohol-
ism Receiving Project will assist in the relocation by providing
a drop-in center where counseling and referral can take place
for some of those residents and others in the downtown area who
will have to move as a result of the Ponahawai Project.
W
P
PROGRAM BENEFITS FOR LOW AND MODERATE INCOME RESIDENTS
The commercial reuse area in the Ponahawai block would en-
tail about $6.25 million in construction which will result in
new short term employment for low and moderate income residents.
This figure is based on an estimated construction cost of $100
per square foot times 60,000 square feet.
About 300 permanent entry-level jobs would be created in
sales and service for the retail anchor. This number is based
on an estimated one employee per 200 square feet of gross leas-
able area for 60,000 square feet.
Spinoff employment would be generated by the increased
business activity in the office core,.
The 38 to 40 low -moderate income tenants within the Pona-
hawai block would be afforded standard living accommodations
either through Section 8 Existing Rental Program or the Elderly
Housing Program. The landlords within the Ponahawai block have
supplied the information that more than 75 percent of the te-
nants are low -moderate income individuals. Elimination of the
fire danger in the Ponahawai block would be a great relief for
the tenants and businesses in this and adjacent areas.
Of the clients serviced by the Big Island Council on
Alcoholism in the downtown area, virtually all are low-income,
most are unemployed and many are senior citizens. The establish-
ment of -the Alcoholism Receiving Center will enable the expansion
of services and hours of service.

CONCENTRATIONS OF
MINORITY GROUPS AND LOWER-INCOME GROUPS
The County of Hawaii has no identifiable concentrations of minority
groups. Lower income persons and families are relatively dispersed
among other income groups. Families residing in subsidized single
family detached housing projects may be exceptions. Census tracts
with such projects having 50 units or more and public low rent units
with 50 units or more are indicated with an asterisk.
Because of the unavailability of more current data, the 1970 census
data was used as the basis to determine the percentage of families
within a census tract that had incomes less than 80 percent of the
median family income for the County of Hawaii. In those census
tracts where more than 40 percent of the families had incomes less
than 80 percent of the County median, it was assumed that the ma-
jority of the families continues to be in the lower-income category
as of this application time.

METHODOLOGY EMPLOYED FOR THE HAWAII COUNTY SURVEY
1. The Hawaii County Housing Survey is a cluster sample, door-to-door survey
of households.
2. The primary objective of the survey was to obtain housing demand informa-
tion on households' which can be serviced by current government housing
programs.
3. A secondary objective was to obtain information which would aid in com-
pleting the 1978 Housing Assistance Plan for Hawaii County.
4. The clusters were chosen from the County Planning Department Structure
File. The Structure File lists housing units by Tax Key numbers.
5. A cluster was chosen from groups of 100 units, except in areas specified
by the County as being of special concern. In these areas, clusters were
chosen from groups of 50 units.
6. Excluded from the sampling frame were dormitories, boarding houses, mili-
tary units, and non-residential units, as well as condominium apartments
which are used for visitor accommodations.
7. Clusters consisted of five units from which interviews were instructed
to obtain two completed interviews.
8. Weights were applied to survey results to correct for over -sampling in
certain areas.

Table III. Narrative
1. Line 15 (C.2.HUD Assisted Programs) includes a proposed allocation
of ten -units for two, five -unit group homes in the Hilo area. The
Hilo Association to Help Retarded Citizens, a private, non-profit
organization, is currently developing a five -unit group home under
the Section 202/8 Program.
The County also complies with the MPS requirement to design 10% of
an Elderly Housing Project for use by paraplegics. Based on input
given by various groups and agencies, the County feels that the
needs of the handicapped and disabled are being provided.
