PUNA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN
MANAGING GROWTH: 3.5 Parks and Recreation
Action 3.5.3.d (page 3-18;19)
Create and improve Linear Parks as follows:
1) When acquiring rights-of-way
for constructing new roadways or improving existing major roadways, make provisions for parallel multi-use recreational trails with appropriate landscaped buffers on either side and
provide connections to other such existing or planned trails, to the extent possible.
2) Complete development of Old Volcano Trail as a pedestrian and bicycle pathway.
3) Acquire the
former railroad right-of-way from Kapoho through Hawaiian Paradise Park and develop it for hiking, bicycling and horse-back riding.
4) Plan for the acquisition and development of the
former railroad right-of-way from Hawaiian Paradise Park to Railroad Avenue in Hilo for bicycle, pedestrian and horse-back riding, provided that measures are taken to protect agriculture
uses of adjoining lands.
5) Plan for public access along Old Government Road (coastal trail) as a bicycle and hiking trail with a natural and cultural resource interpretive program.
(3.5.1)
Goals:
a) Puna offers a variety of public recreational areas, reflecting the beauty and diversity of the natural setting, and recreational programs for people of all ages and physical
abilities that are not currently available.
b) There is an equitable dispersal of parks and recreation facilities readily accessible to most Puna residents.
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.
When acquiring rights-of-way for constructing new roadways or improving existing major roadways, make provisions for parallel multi-use recreational trails with appropriate landscaped
buffers on either side and provide connections to other such existing or planned trails, to the extent possible:
