Purpose of the Plan: Page 1, is revised as follows: The Paia-Haiku Community Plan is mandated by the Charter of Maui County (1977) and the Maui County General Plan which was adopted on June 24, 1980 as Ordinance No. 1052. The Maui County General Plan, in turn, is guided by the Hawaii State Plan formulated under the provisions of Chapter 226, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). The County General Plan sets forth the broad objectives and policies [and] for the long-range development of the County. The purpose of this Community Plan is to provide a relatively detailed scheme for implementing these objectives and policies relative to the Paia-Haiku region. Contained in this plan is [The] the desired sequence, patterns and characteristics of future Ta-elopments for the region [are described by a map showing the planned distribution and intensity of land uses and public facilities, statements of standards and principles with respect to development and statements indicating the sequence in which future development is to occur] as well as statements of standards and principles with respect to development and statements indicating the sequence in which future development is to occur. Also included are maps identifying the planned distribution and intensity of land uses and public facilities. This Community Plan [will provide the County of Maui with a decision-making tool to guide] is a guide to making decisions regarding the development in the region until the year 2000. Updates will occur at least every [five] ten years to incorporate new data and analysis. The plan elements are organized according to the General Plan objectives and policies. The Technical Report which accompanies this Plan provides background information for further interpretation of the summary discussions and recommendations which tallow. [The plan elements are organized according to the objectives and policies outlined in the General Plan. The Technical Report which accompanies this Plan provides background information for further interpretation of the summary discussions and recommendations which follow.] 2. Planning Area Description: Page 2, paragraph I, is revised as follows: Page 2 The Paia-Haiku region is located along the island of Maui's northern shore, ease of Walluku, the County seat. [The boundary of this region runs along Kailua Gulch from the ocean to, but not including, the town of Haliimaile, then crosses over to Kahakapo Gulch up a point near Hosmer Grove Campground, then back towards the ocean along Waiakamoi Stream, then Oopuela Stream to the shoreline.] The boundary of the region is described as follows: North - The shoreline of the Pacific Ocean from Kailua Gulch to Oopuela Stream in the vicinity of Kailua Town. East - Mauka along Oopuela and Waiakamoi Streams to a point near Hosmer's Grove Campground. South - Nlakai across Kahakapo Gulch and west below Haliimaile Town to Kailua Gulch. West - Kailua Gulch makai to the ocean shoreline. This boundary encompasses an area of approximately 17,300 acres and includes a tax map key zone 2, sections 5 through 9. 3. Planning Area Description, Page 2, paragraph 3, 5th sentence, is revised as follows: Population levels have not declined, however, because the Paia area serves to some extent as a bedroom community to the Wailuku-[Hakului]Kahului job center. 4. Planning Process: Page 4, paragraph 1, is revised as follows: Public participation played a key role in the preparation of the Community through the first three stages. The Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) for Paia-Haiku was the focal point for the interaction between the consultants and the public as the Plan was being developed. The CAC was created by the County to advise and guide the Planning Director in the formulation of the Community Plan. The CAC [consists] consisted of 17 members, of which 9 were appointed by the County Council and 8 by the Mayor. The CAC held a public meeting approximately once a month beginning in January, 1981. The first two meetings were very valuable to the data collection effort with respect to the identification of community problems, needs and desires. The review and comments by the CAC members and the general public on the consultants' various work products at subsequent meetings during the data analysis and plan formulation stages were also of great assistance. The results of this process and the minutes of the CAC meetings are contained in the Technical Report which supplements this Community Plan. Page 3 Should any conflict exist between the Technical Report and the Community Plan, the Community Plan shall prevail. 5. Identification of Major Problems and Opportunities Page 6, paragraph 1, is revised as follows: The Paia-Haiku region's key assets and problems were identified through intensive [working] sessions at the first two Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) meetings. Participants were divided into small groups and asked to compile lists of the community's most favorable attributes and most serious problems. These responses were grouped according to the Community Plan categories mentioned earlier and ranked as to their relative importance and frequency of appearance on the lists. 6. Identification of Major Problems and Opportunities: Page 6, paragraph 3, is revised as follows: The region's major problems [, as] have been identified by the residents [, are listed in order of pi1ority in the summary below.] in the following order of importance: 7. Planning Standards and Principles: Pages 8 and 9, paragraphs 1 and 5, are revised as follows: [Certain underlying] The following principles have guided the preparation of the Paia-Fraiku Community Plan. [A brief discussion of each principle follows:] 1. Maintenance of State Land Use Districts To minimize conflicts between State and County planning processes, the boundaries of the four State Land Use District are to be respected to the greatest extent possible in planning for the region's urban growth [of the region]. [In particular, the boundaries of the] The State Conservation District boundaries shall remain unchanged except for Hookipa, Maliko and Pauwela Point. When State Agricultural District land is needed to accommodate future urban expansion, [an' every effort [has been] should be made to identify and protect the potentially most productive [of these lands for] agricultural [purposes] lands. 2. Geographic Concentration of Growth [Public facilities and services are easier and less expensive to provide when urban expansion is incremental and contiguous rather than scattered] It is less expensive to provide public facilities and services when urban expansion is contiguous. A [concentration] concentrated pattern of development also preserves large tracts for agricultural and conservation Page 4 purposes. Future growth in this region will build upon the existing urban nucleus of Paia Town. 3. Diversification and Controlled Expansion of the Economic Base An economy based on a single activity is much more vulnerable than one which is based on a wide range of activities.
