AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 25 (ZONING CODE) OF THE HAWAII COUNTY
CODE, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO ONE -ACRE PARCELS IN AGRICULTURAL
DISTRICTS BY INCREASING THE MINIMUM BUILDING SITE AREA IN
AGRICULTURAL DISTRICTS TO THREE ACRES.
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Findings and purpose. The County Council of the
County of Hawaii recognizes that the agricultural district
provides for agricultural and very low density residential use,
but at the same time recognizes that one -acre agricultural parcels
are used primarily for residential uses.. The
11
"Gentl:emen/Gentlewomen farmers" with urban lifestyles use
agricultural dedication to minimize property taxes on their
country estates causing the price of agricultural land to increase.
The County General Plan states "The County of Hawaii shall
assist the expansion of the agricultural industry, especially
diversified agriculture, through the protection of important
agricultural lands, capital improvement and other programs, and
continued cooperation with appropriate State and Federal
agencies." To support this, the Council believes that any
agricultural lot less than three -acres should be allowed only in
the County's RA and RS zoned district.
Therefore the purpose of this bill is to designate the minimum
building site area in any (A) Agricultural district to three -acres.
SECTION 2. Section 25-154, Article 8, Chapter 25 of the
Hawaii°County Code is amended as follows:
"Minimum building site area. The minimum building site area
to be designated for any A district shall be [one] three acres.
Other A districts having larger areas may be designated in
increments of one acre up to a recommended maximum of ten thousand
acres . `'
SECTION 3. Section 25-155, Article 8, Chapter 25 of the
Hawaii;;County Code is amended as follows:
"Minimum building site average width. Each building site must
it
f
have a minimum average width of one hundred [twenty] sixty feet
for the first [one] three acres of the required area plus twenty
�i
feet for each additional acre of required area. The maximum
required average width for any building site shall be one thousand
feet
SECTION 4. Section 25-157, Article 8, Chapter 25 of the
Hawaii",County Code is amended as follows:
."Other regulations.
"(a) If any legal building site in an A district has an area
of less than one acre, then the yard and height requirements for
the building site shall be the same as in the RS districts."
-2-
19
"(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this article, building
sites located within areas lawfully designated Agricultural -1 acre
and Agricultural -2 acre at the time of the effective date of this
ordinance, shall continue to be regulated by the provisions of
this article, with the exception of Section 25-154 and Section
25-155, relative to the minimum building site area and minimum
building site average width, respectively. The minimum building
site area for Agricultural -1 acre zoned districts shall be
one acre and the minimum building site average width shall be
one hundred twenty feet. The minimum building site area for
Agricultural -2 acre zoned districts shall be two acres and the
minimum building site average width shall be one hundred forty
feet."
SECTION 5. Material to be repealed is bracketed. New
material is underscored. In printing this ordinance, the
brackets, bracketed materials, and underscoring need not be
included.
SECTION 6. In the event that any portion of this ordinance
is declared invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the other
parts of this ordinance.

SECTION 7. This ordinance shall take effect upon its
approval.
