The purpose of Bill 200 is to amend Section 25-87 (North Kona Zone
Map ) and Section 25-89 (Kailua Urban Zone Map) , Article 3, Chapter 25
of the Hawaii County Code, relating to the modification of conditions

Condition D, as amended, requires the applicant to submit subdivision

Condition E requires the applicant to submit plans for Plan Approval
within one year from the date of receipt of an SMA Permit.
Condition B is also amended to require the developer to submit an
overall site development plan for the approval of the Chief Engineer
and the Planning Director within one year from the effective date of
this amendment.
In reference to Conditions D and E, two administrative time
extensions have already been granted . The second extension required
compliance by April 18, 1986 .
On January 24 , 1986 , the applicant requested another time extension.
In support of the request, the applicant stated, in part, that "Our
property lies within the Waiaha flood plain and drainage improvements
are needed in order for us to proceed with development . During the
past year , our consultants, with the Department of Public Works and
others , have been trying to work out a drainage plan for the entire
system and not just a segment . The problems involved are significant
and the solutions have been slow due to the scope of studies needed
to come to an agreement on how the system will work . "

year from the date of approval of the overall site development plan
required under condition B, above. The Planning Director may
administratively grant extensions to the foregoing time conditions .
Further , should any of the conditions not be met or complied with in
a timely fashion, the Director may initiate rezoning of the property
to its original or more appropriate designation. "
At the request of Councilman Kokubun, Planning Director Albert Lyman
stated that the Planning Committee will be informed whenever
extensions to conditions are granted. Mr . Lyman stated that copies
of letters granting such extensions will be sent to the Planning
Committee .
Mr . Lyman added that Corporation Counsel is reviewing a resolution,
prepared by the Planning Department , which would authorize the
Planning Director to administratively grant extensions to certain
conditions . The resolution will be transmitted to the County Council
via the Planning Commission.

of Bill No. 200 and recommends that it pass first reading .
