c) The development of future parks supports the growth management goals, objectives and actions set forth in Section 3.1 of this plan,
(3.5.2) Objectives:
Adopt the following
classification for expansion and improvement of parks in Puna:
1) Camp Ground: An area with potable water and restroom facilities for overnight tent camping, which may be available
on a permit or fee-for-service basis.
2) Coastal Activity Area: A shoreline recreational area that is accessed by a park or a public easement.
3) Community Park: A recreational park
or facility intended to be used primarily by residents of the area that is owned and maintained by the County or by a private entity with unrestricted public access.
4) Linear Park:
A recreational, non-motorized pathway (except motorized wheelchairs), which may be inter-connected or within a right-of-way of an existing or new roadway, and is separated from travel
lanes and adjacent properties by a landscaped buffer, with occasional rest stops or viewing spots.
5) Preserve: A site with features of significant natural or historic value that provides
minimal facilities for public visitation, such as interpretive signage, a walking trail and small parking area, and is maintained by a stewardship program.
b) Encourage the collocation
of schools, parks and senior centers to promote interactivity between community members of all ages.
c) Identify lands to be used for parks in connection with subdivision interconnectivity.
