MEMO
NKCDP Action Committee
Growth Management Community Group
December 29, 2017
SUBJECT: Planning Department Applications Review for November 6t' and December 4t' 2017
At the Community Group meeting held on November 6t', 2017, we discussed the following
concerns and we had no new applications.
CDP DISCUSSION - SECTION 2.4: LAND USE AND THE IMPACT OF NON -
AGRICULTURE BUSINESS IN AN AGRICULTURE DISTRICT, SPECIFICALLY GUEST
RANCHES AND VENUES FOR WEDDINGS OR OTHER NON -AGRICULTURE
EVENTS/ACTIVITIES.
1 — Reiterate original CDP concern that if the County continues to allow for an increase in
overnight accommodations that they commit to considering the impacts that decision has on
infrastructure demands.
2 — Plan to organize future discussion around this topic with a speaker from the County to
discuss particulars.
CDP DISCUSSION - STRATEGY 4.4: IMPROVE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND
RESPONSE, THE HAWAII COUNTY SIGN CODE, AND THE IMPACT OF LARGE
LIGHTED SIGNS.
1 — The recent installation of a roadside, illuminated, automated sign has stirred the community.
Encouragement for a Kohala Village Article added to the sign code similar to Kailua and Pahoa.
2 — Reiterate frustration being excluded from the process. Neither the NKCDP Action
Committee nor any of the Subcommittees were notified and their input not solicited. The County
needs to recognize the importance of seeking and obtaining a community's advisory
commission's written recommendation
At the Community Group meeting held on December 4t', 2017, we discussed the following
concerns and we had one new application. We had no issues with this application.
