Dear Ms. Maley:
Permit Use
vuc rc�mzt Aap7iratin(::P92-2)
Applicant Bay Clinic
Request: Establish Community Health Center
Tax Map Key: 2-1-06.17
The Planning Commission at its duly held public hearing on
February 27, 1992, voted to approve your application, Use Permit
No. 98, to allow the establishment of a community health center
within the former AYH Youth Hostel complex situated within the State
Land Use Urban District and the County's Resort -Hotel -750 square
feet per unit with Safety Flood Hazard (V -S-.75) zoned district.
The subject property, consisting of 90,604 square feet, is located
along the northwest (makai) side of Kalanianaole Street,
approximately 130 feet southwest of the Kalanianaole Street-Keaa
Street intersection, Waiakea, South Hilo, Hawaii.
Approval of this request is based on the following:
The granting of this request will be consistent with the
general purpose of the zoned district, the intent and purpose of
the Zoning Code, and the County General Plan. The establishment
of a community health center on a property within the State Land
Use Urban District and the County's Resort -Hotel zoned district
may be permitted through the granting of a Use Permit. The
proposed use is consistent with the goal of the Land Use Element
of the General Plan to "Designate and allocate land uses in
appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with the social;
cultural, and physical environments of the County." The
proposed use is compatible with the local environment in light
of the mixed uses of the area.

The desired use will not be materially detrimental to the
public welfare nor cause substantial adverse impact to the
community's character or to surrounding properties. The
applicant proposes to utilize the former Hilo Bay AYH Hostel
building for the proposed use. No improvements are proposed to
the structure nor are any land alteration activities being
considered. In light of the various industrial uses within the
surrounding area, it is not anticipated that the proposed use
will have an adverse effect on the character of surrounding
Properties or the community. Given the services to be provided
by the applicant, it is anticipated that the proposed use will
have a positive effect on the welfare of the public.
The granting of the proposed use will not adversely affect
similar or related existing uses within the surrounding area,
community or region. No Use Permits have been granted by the
Planning Commission for similar or related uses within the
region. The applicant currently provides community health
services from its current Hilo Lagoon Centre location.
Relocation of the center, should it be approved, will simply
allow for the continuance of a use already established in this
community.
The desired use will not unreasonably burden public
agencies to provide roads and streets, sewers, water, drainage,
school improvements, police and fire protection, and other
related infrastructure. The site is provided with all essential,
utilities and services. Consulted agencies had no objections to
the request.
Approval of this request is subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant, its successors or assigns shall be
responsible for complying with all stated conditions of
approval.
2. Final Plan Approval shall be secured from the Planning
Department within one year from the effective date of this
permit. To assure adequate time for plan approval review
and in accordance with Chapter 25-244 (Zoning Code), plans
shall be submitted a minimum of forty-five days prior to
the date by which plan approval must be secured. Plans
shall identify existing structures, landscaping, and
parking stalls associated with the community health

center. Parking shall comply with the requirements of
Chapter 25 (Zoning Code).
3. The applicant shall secure the necessary building permit(s)
to allow the change in occupancy from a hostel to a
community health center within one year from the date of
receipt of Final Plan Approval and establish (Certificate
Of Occupancy) the proposed use within one year thereafter.
4. Comply with all other laws, rules, regulations and
requirements of State and County agencies.
5. An annual progress report shall be submitted to the
Planning Director prior, to:the ann versaiy date of the
approval of the permit.' The report shall include, but not
be limited to, the status of the development and to what
extent the conditions of approval are being complied with.
This condition shall remain in effect until all of the
conditions of approval have been complied and the Planning
Director acknowledges that further reports are not required.
6. An extension of time for the performance of conditions
within the permit may be granted by the Planning Director
upon the following circumstances: a) the non-performance
is the result of conditions that could not have been
foreseen or are beyond the control of the applicant,
successors or assigns, and that are not the result of their
fault or negligence; b) granting of the time extension
would not be contrary to the -General Plan or Zoning Code;
c) granting of the time extension would not be contrary to
the original reasons for the granting of the permit; and
d) the time extension granted shall be for a period not to
exceed the period originally granted for performance (i.e.,
a condition to be performed within one year may be extended
for up to one additional year). Further, should any of the
conditions not be met or substantially complied with in a
timely fashion, the Director shall initiate procedures to
revoke the permit.
This approval does not, however, sanction the specific plans
submitted with the application as they may be subject to change
given specific code and regulatory requirements of the affected
agencies.
