The subject property is located in North Kohala, near the Ainakea Subdivision. A large portion of the property is part of the Hapahapai Gulch. In requesting the rezoning, the applicant stated that "We are submitting this rezoning request because the subject pacel is basically a gulch and serves as the drainage area for mauka lands, and thus has minimal commercial or any other development potential. A reversion to an Open zoning would be consistent with the parcel's natural geography and its current use." The Planning Commission states that "The rezoning action would retain the property in its natural open condition as a gulch since no enclosed structures would be permitted within the Open district." Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the intent and purpose of Bill No. 171 and recommends that it pass first reading. TAKASHI DOMINGO, CHAIRMAN HARRY S. R DLE, VICE CHR. HELENE H.
