B. PLANNING, ZONING AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE

Motion # 1: The Kailua Neighborhood Board opposes the zoning variance at 1336 Mokulua Drive to allow 2 single-family dwellings on a single zoning lot, which lacks the required lot area because the applicant does not meet the 3 criteria (LUO Sec. 6-909 and 6-910) for a variance. 1) The applicant would be deprived of the reasonable use of such land or building if it were used only for the purpose allowed in that zone, 2) The request of the applicant is due to unique circumstances and not the general conditions in the neighborhoods, 3) the use sought to be authorized by the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor be contrary to the intent and purpose of the zoning ordinance.

Motion # 2: The Kailua Neighborhood Board opposes Hawaiian Memorial Park Expansion in Kaneohe because it is not consistent with the Ko’olaupoko Sustainable Communities Plan, requires conversion of conservation land to urban use and for other reasons.

Motion # 3: The Kailua Neighborhood Board requests that HUD (Federal Housing and Urban Development), the State and/or City purchase the very viable and historic Kailuan apartment building at 409 Kailua Road (TMK 2001035) in Kailua for affordable housing.
