NOTICE OF PUBLICATION AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Notice is hereby given that the Council of the County of Kaua’i will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, May 18, 2022, at 8:30 a.m., or soon thereafter, at the Council Chambers, 4396 Rice Street, Room 201, Historic County Building, Lihu’e, on the following:
Bill No. 2854
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 8, KAUA’I COUNTY
CODE 1987, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO ALL-HAZARD STATEWIDE OUTDOOR WARNING SIREN SYSTEMS (County of Kaua’i Planning Department, Applicant) (ZA-2022-2)
This Bill proposes to amend Chapter 8, Kaua’i County Code 1987, as amended, Section 8-1.4(e) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, entitled “Applications of Regulations.” Currently, Section 8-1.4(e) does not specify that
All-Hazard Statewide Outdoor Warning Siren Systems are exempt from Kaua’i County zoning permitting requirements. All-Hazard Statewide Outdoor Warning Siren Systems are intended to provide an outdoor method of alerting people and communities of upcoming hazard events on or nearby coastal areas. County permitting for these structures within coastal areas require Special Management Area permits as well as shoreline variances which could lead to an extensive process which includes an Environmental Assessment (EA) and Kaua’i Planning Commission approvals. This Bill seeks to expedite the regulatory review of these systems which is necessary for the health, safety, and welfare of those living or frequenting coastal areas.
Bill No. 2855
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 8, KAUA’I COUNTY
CODE 1987, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO WAREHOUSES IN THE COMMERCIAL GENERAL ZONING DISTRICT (County of Kaua’i Planning Department, Applicant) (ZA-2022-3)
This Bill proposes to amend Chapter 8, Kaua’i County Code 1987, as amended, Section 8-2.4 Table of Uses, to remedy an inaccuracy in the Commercial General Zoning District. Currently, the Table of Uses, Section 8-2.4(j)(25) outright permits Warehouses in the Commercial General Zoning District and Section 8-2.4(l)(13) requires Warehouses in the Commercial General Zoning District to obtain a Use Permit. This Bill seeks to correct the oversight in the current Table of Uses to ensure that there is consistency. This Bill would permit Warehouses in the Commercial General Zoning District.
All interested persons who wish to present their comments may do so at the public hearing. Written testimony prior to the hearing would be appreciated. Written testimony can be submitted to the Office of the County Clerk, Council Services Division by mail, facsimile, or via E-mail to counciltestimony@kauai.gov. Copies of these Bills are available at the Office of the County Clerk, Council Services Division.
(The Council Committee or Council may amend these Bills at their subsequent meetings. Meeting notices are posted at least six (6) days in advance at the County Clerk’s Office and the public may also testify at any of these meetings.)
