REPORT OF THE
COMMITTEE ON PLANNING
DATE: May 26, 1999 Re: C-193/Resolution No. 62-99
PLACE: Councilroom
TIME: 2:13 p.m.
Chair and Members
Hawaii County Council
Hilo, Hawaii 96720
Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Resolution No. 62-99, transmitted by
Mayor Stephen K. Yamashiro per Communication No. 193, dated March 2, 1999, regarding the
naming of streets in the County of Hawaii, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 62-99 authorizes the naming of streets within the Naniakea Subdivision,
Waakea, South Hilo, Hawaii, Tax Map Key 2-4-14:214. Pursuant to Section 22-35, Article 2,
Chapter 22, Hawaii County Code, the Council is authorized to adopt street names for Hawaii
County's unnamed roadways. The Planning Commission at its February 19, 1999 meeting,
voted to recommend the adoption of the street names as follows:
Road A "Naniakea Street" extension of existing street
Road B "Nikolao Place" Hawaiian word for Nicholas
Road C "Mika`ele Place" Hawaiian word for Michael
Road D "Kia`i Place" meaning guard, watchman
Road E "Ho`omakoa Place" meaning to act bravely
Road F "Kelika Place" Hawaiian word for Derick
Resolution No. 62-99 and Communication No. 193 were first placed on the April 20, 1999
agenda, but deferred until today. Because Your Committee awaited the response from the
Department of Hawaiian Home Lands to the recommendations of the University of Hawaii at
Hilo regarding Resolution No. 60-99, both resolutions were deferred until today. Your
Committee sought recommendations from the University of Hawaii at Hilo regarding the correct
spelling of the above-mentioned names with diacritical marks, and received a modified list.
Some members of Your Committee firmly believe that the diacritical marks should be used,
however, due to the length of the discussion regarding the previous Resolution No. 60-99, Your
Committee did not offer any discussion on Resolution No. 62-99.

recommends its adoption.
