PUNA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN
MANAGING GROWTH: 3.5 Parks and Recreation
Action 3.5.3.e (page 3-19)
Create and improve Preserves as follows:
1) For designated preserves, assess
the appropriate level of site visitor usage and implement self-guided or steward-led interpretative tours through the site.
2) Improve conditions at Wai'ōpae Tidepools and the Marine
Conservation District by; (1) Offering tax credits to nearby private landowners as incentive to convert existing cesspools, where they exist, to septic tanks with a pump-out system;
(2) Providing public sanitary facilities, including a toilet and trash receptacle; (3) Providing off-street parking that does not encroach into private lands; and (4) Providing permanent
public access.
3) Consider acquiring Kapoho Crater (Green Lake) and adjacent land for native plant/habitat restoration and a nature center with activities and interpretive programs
for school-aged students and the general public.
4) Consider hiking trails through Nānāwale Forest Reserve, provided that areas with intact native forest are adequately protected.
5)
Pursue development of a passive cultural resources and ethno-botanical park in Hawaiian Paradise Park, to include the rock wall, native and introduced plants and exceptional trees.
(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.
For designated preserves, assess the appropriate level of site visitor usage and implement self-guided or steward-led interpretative tours through the site:
