TIME : 1: 30 p.m.
PLACE: County Councilroom, Hilo

Hawaii County Council
Hilo, Hawaii
Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Bill No. 1098
regarding a General Plan Amendment for Ernest Texeira,
TMK: 4-5-10 :85, reports as follows :
The purpose of this bill is to amend Chapter 16 of the Hawaii County
Code by amending the General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide
Map from a "Low Density Urban Development" to a "Medium Density Urban
Development" designation at Pa ' alaea and Papa' anui , Honokaa, Hamakua.
The petitioner intends to develop a commercial venture by
establishing a restaurant/banquet hall and commercial rental space
under a 7, 000 square foot building. The petitioner also intends to
provide park space on the property to be used as a scenic overlook of
Honokaa and the coastline.
The Honokaa Urban Design Plan adopted by Ordinance No. 463 designates
Mamane Street as the commercial core of Honokaa. Within this plan,
there are only 26+ acres available for village commercial
development, the majority of which is centered within this commercial
core. Your committee finds that commercial developments are hindered
within the constraints of the designated commercial core. The
development as proposed by the petitioner would add to the employment
opportunities as well as provide much needed restaurant/banquet
facilities, complemented by a scenic overlook.
Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the intent and purpose
of Bill No. 1098 and recommends that it pass first reading.
