PLACE : Councilroom
TIME : 1:30 p .m .
Chairman and Members
Hawaii County Council
Hilo, Hawaii 96720
Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Bill No . 565 ,
regarding a request to amend Condition D of Ordinance No. 21 , reports
as follows:
The purpose of Bill 565 is to amend Section 25-114 , Article 3 ,
Chapter 25 of the Hawaii County Code , relating to the modification of
Condition D of Ordinance No . 21 which rezoned certain lands at
Waiakea, South Hilo, Hawaii , identified as TMK : 2-4-64 :40
(Park Site ) .
TMK : 2-4-64 :40 identifies a 52,979 square foot park site located in
the Lehua Heights Subdivision . Kawailani Hui '74 , the applicant , had
requested that Condition D (Park Requirement ) of Ordinance No . 21 be
deleted . The Planning Commission is recommending that Condition D be
amended.
According to the Planning Commission , "The code currently states that
where the district resident population is greater than five acres of
park area for each 1 ,000 persons in the district, the park
requirement of this code does not apply. Therefore , based on its
current inventory, the South Hilo District has ample park acreages to
satisfy the requirements of the Park Dedication Code . Since this
particular 1 .2-acre area was not part of the park inventory, it is
determined that the request to delete the park site would not be
detrimental to the public 's general welfare . "
Bill 565 deletes Condition D of Ordinance 21 in its entirety and
replaces it with the following:
•
"The applicant shall comply with the attached agreement
made with the Lehua Heights Community Association and
identified as Exhibit B. Further , a copy of the
executed agreement shall be filed with the Planning
Department within one year from the effective date of
this amendment . "
