COMMITTEE ON PLANNING
DATE: March 14 , 1988 Re: 'Comm. 1505
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 . 503 ,
regarding the rezoning request of Lillia Krieger , et . al . ,
North Kona, Hawaii , TMK : 7-9-12 :18 , reports as follows:
Bill No . 503 amends Section 25-87 , Article 3, Chapter 25 of the
Hawaii County Code , by changing the district classification of
7 .099 acres of land from Agricultural (A-5a ) to
Residential-Agricultural (RA-la) .
While the Planning Commission is recommending approval of the
application, the Planning Director is recommending denial because the
proposed rezoning violates Section 205-2, Hawaii Revised Statutes ,
and is inconsistent with the State Land Use Regulations and the
General Plan .
There are five single family dwellings on the property . The
applicant plans to subdivide the property in five lots of
approximately one acre each, to accommodate each of the five
dwellings .
According to the Planning Department, in addition to the five
dwellings , a guest house is also located on the property . Of these
six structures, only two of the dwelling units have all necessary
permits.
The Department of Agriculture has no objection to the zone change
because the property already has several small scale orchards of
avocado , macadamia nuts , coffee, banana and lychee.. According to the
applicants , they will continue to farm the land .
Current access to the property from Mamalahoa Highway is via a
50-foot road reserve which has an 8- to 10-foot wide pavement with
4-foot wide shoulders . The applicants stated that they plan to
provide a new access to the proposed lots .
Your Committee heard testimony from the applicant and her planning
consultant in reference to a new access to the property. Your
Committee suggested that access be provided via an extension of Mamao
Street which currently ends at the southern boundary of the subject
property .

extension of Mamao Street to the northern boundary of
the subject property shall be included at the time of

Your Committee has also amended Condition F of the bill to require
the applicant to secure all required building permits prior to
receiving final subdivision approval .
The bill has been further amended to include the following statement
regarding the proposed Unified Impact Fees Ordinance:
SECTION 3 . Should the Council adopt a Unified Impact
Fees Ordinance setting forth criteria for the
imposition of exactions or the assessment of impact
fees, conditions included herein may at the developer 's
election, be satisfied by performance in accordance
with the requirements of the Unified Impact Fees
Ordinance .
Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the intent and purpose
of Bill No. 503, Draft 2, and recommends that it pass first reading .
