REPORT OF THE <br /> COMMITTEE ON PLANNING <br /> DATE: January 4, 2017 Re: Comm. No. 29/Bill No. 4 <br /> PLACE: Council Chambers <br /> Hilo, Hawai`i <br /> TIME: 1:10 p.m. <br /> Council Chair and Members <br /> Hawai`i County Council <br /> Hilo, Hawai`i 96720 <br /> Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Bill No. 4, reports as follows: <br /> Bill No. 4, transmitted by Mayor Harry Kim, via Communication No. 29 dated December 13, <br /> 2016, amends the State Land Use Boundaries Map for the County of Hawai`i by changing the <br /> district classification from the Agricultural District to the Urban District at Kukuihaele, <br /> Waikoekoe, Hamakua, Hawai`i (Tax Map Key: 4-8-006:003). <br /> This measure is initiated by the Planning Director, and the subject parcel is 8,803 square feet. <br /> The Windward Planning Commission recommended approval of this bill at its public hearing on <br /> December 1, 2016. The property is the site of the formerly proposed Trees of Kukuihaele <br /> development that will not be developed. <br /> Deputy Planning Director Daryn Arai came forward and explained that this request was <br /> prompted by the current landowner and that the original vision for a resort development on this <br /> property was not going to materialize because of limitations such as the lack of adequate water to <br /> sustain a resort development. <br /> Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 4, and <br /> recommends its passage on first reading. <br /> wb <br /> AYES NOES ABS EX Respectfully submitted, <br /> CHUNG X <br /> DAVID x COMMITTEE ON PLANNING <br /> EOFF X <br /> KANUHA X <br /> LEE LOV X <br /> O'HARA X Cj16./(1,- <br /> 1 <br /> POINDEXTER x KAREN EOFF, CHAIR <br /> RICHARDS X PC REPORT NO.: 3 <br /> RUGGLES x ADOPTED: JAN 2 5 2017 <br />
