Dear Mr. Puke:
Use Permit Application
Applicant: Dr. be"nis sayawa
Tax NaL Key: 2-2-22:11
The Planning Commission at its duly held public hearing on
Way 22, 1985, voted to approve the application, Qse Permit ho. 30,
to sallow the construction of a dental building to accommodate three
dentists on 20p314 square feet of lana situates„ within the Bingle
FaMily Residential (RS -10) zoned district at Wiaiahea, South Hilo,
Hawaii.
Approval of this request is based on the following:
The granting of the proposed use will be consistent with
the general purpose of the zoned district, the intent and
purpose of the Zoning Noce, and the County General Plan. The
establishment of a dental office within the Single:'Family zoned
x district may be permitted through the granting of a Use Permit.
It should be further noted that the goals of the Land Use
element of the General Plan states to "Designate and allocate
land uses in appropriate proportions and in keeping with the
social, cultural, and physical environments of the County." It
is felt that the granting of the request at its inarticular
location will still maintain the present environment of this
:area of the City of Hilo. While the property is surrounded by
single family dwellings, other uses in the immediate vicinity
include offices, service: stations and warehouse space. As such,.
the establishment of a dental offices on t;e subject property
would not involve the introduction of a completely new use into
the area. In fact, the dental office will be compatible with
the uses already established.
Since all essential utilities and services are available to
the property, the granting of this request will also be in the
or. sioney Fuge

direction of fulfilling the land use policy of the Ceneral Plan
which states to promote and encourage the utilization of urban
areas which are serviced by basic community facilities and
utilities. Finally, the granting of this request would still be
consistent with One Of the Purposes of the Zoning Code which is
to Promote health, safety, metals or the ene
gral welfare of the
community.
The proposed use Will not be yaterially detrimental to the
public welfare nor cause substantial adverse impact to the
cOmmunitY's character or to surrounding properties. As stated
Previously, although the property is surrounded by single family
Cwellingso other land uses in the vicinity include offices,
service stations and warehouse space. While the establishment
of a dental office may have some impact on the adjacent
residential uses, the impacts should be minimal. The subject
PrOPertY consists of 20,314 square feet of land area which
Provides ample space for all necessiry improvements and a buffer
from surrounding properties. Moreover, the impacts associated
with a dental Office are not expected to be overly qoxioUS in
nature.
The granting of the PrOPOsed use will not adversely affect
similar or related existing noes within the surrounding area,
community or region. Approval of the subject request would
enable the petitioners to improver their services to the
community. The new facility would be tailored to the indivQual
needs of the dentists as well as accommodating the most modern
form of dental technology. Theme improvements could not bc-
accommodated within the existing facilities presently in use.
One other area of imPrOvement would be the better servicing of
handicapped clients by meeting the Present requirements of the
building and zoning codes.
The granting of the proposed use will not unreasonably
burden public agencies to provide roads and streets, sewer,
water, drainage, schools, police and fire protection and other
related infrastructure. The property is provided with all
essential utilities and services. While traffic in this area
will increase, it is expected to be quite negligible. The
section of Kinoole Street fronting the property has a
right-of-way width Of sixty feet and is improved with a 36 -foot
wide Pvverentf curbar gutters and sidewalks. ks a condition of
approval, the Petitioners will also be required to continue the
curb, gutter and sidewalk from Kinsale Street to the northerly
corner of the property on Lanihuli Street. Water, as well as
Lire hydrants are available to service the property. it should
be further noted that none of the cooperating agencies had any
Objections to the subject request.
