No. 1135/Bill No. 204 PLACE: Council Chambers Hilo, Hawai`i TIME: 1:05 p.m. Council Chair and Members Hawai`i County Council Hilo, Hawai`i 96720 Your Committee on Planning, to which was referred Bill No. 204, reports as follows: Bill No. 204, transmitted by Mayor Harry Kim, via Communication No. 1135, dated October 8, 2018, amends Ordinance No. 06-47, which reclassified lands from Single Family Residential (RS-10) to General Commercial (CG-10) at Waiakea, South Hilo, Hawai`i, covered by Tax Map Keys: 2-2-028:030, 032 and 033. (Applicant: Janice Oshiro) (Area: 28,002 square feet). Mayor Harry Kim forwarded the Windward Planning Commission's favorable recommendation for this amendment to request a five-year time extension to complete construction and an administrative time extension that could provide for an additional five years to complete construction, to allow for the conversion of two existing single-family dwellings into office spaces. The property is located approximately 163 feet northeast of the intersection of Kilauea Avenue and Lanikaula Street. Planning Consultant Sidney Fuke appeared, representing the applicant. Mr. Fuke explained the family had this property years ago, however, when the applicant's father passed away, plans were waylaid for this property. He further stated that the ultimate goal was to convert this property into small offices, and that the time had lapsed for the structures to be converted. There was no discussion. The vote was then taken on the motion to move this measure to Council with a positive recommendation and passed with seven "ayes." Your Committee on Planning is in accord with the purpose and intent of Bill No. 204, and recommends its passage on first reading. wb AYES NOES ABS EX Respectfully submitted, CHUNG X DAVID x COMMITTEE ON PLANNING EOFF X KANUHA X LEE LOY X O'HARA X POINDEXTER x KAREN EOFF, CHAIR RICHARDS X PC REPORT NO.: 76 RUGGLES X ADOPTED: NOV 2 0 2018
