Hanna: Enclosed are separate information packets on your two Big Island lots and their status under the revised zoning ordinance adopted last December . I recommend that you consider completing and returning the variance resolution (Form #2) pravided for the one lot with a cabin on it. This will ensure that you receive the full "grandfather" benefits of the ordinance designed to protect building rights on those lots with existing cabins . I apologize for the delay in getting this information to you . You will note that the ordinance and attached forms include a July l , 1983 , deadline for your response . I would appreciate your response by that date , but because this notice was delayed, we will extend the actual deadline to September l , 1983 . Thank you for your coopei-ation.

Dear Island Landowner : The purpose of this letter is to provide you with information regarding the recent zoning changes on Big Island and what this means for your property . The new RS Seasonal Recreational zoning regulations were established by City Council adoption of Ordinance No . 246 on December 30 , 1982 . The previous zoning ordinance required two acres or more for any property to be built on . The new ordinance increased this minimum lot size to five acres for creating new building sites , but it also "grandfathered" seasonal building rights for all existing lots having a cabin , and for vacant lots in common ownership that exceed one-half acre in area . Your property is one of seven vacant Record Lots that is less than one- half acre in area . Because of this small size , the City Council has determined that your 1ot is not automatically buildable without sewer available , and would need to go through the formal application and review process to determine whether a variance might be granted or not . This is exactly the same s"tatus and procedure necessary under the previous ordinance . The new zoning regulations have thus not affected the buildability of your property in any way . The new ordinance does , however , specify that one-family seasonal recreational use of your land without a cabin is now a permitted use . This means you may camp overnight , build a barbeque pit , an outhouse , or a small screen house or storage building to facilitate temporary use of the land . The ordinance also provides that if your lot is sold and/or combined with other similar small lots so that the resulting lot size exceeds one-half acre , that it may then be large enough to be used for a seasonal cabin . All construction of any kind remains subject to building permits and other regulations . Please review the Record Lot information shown above and notify the City if there is a problem or if there should be a change . �over) BUILDING&ZONING—473-7357 • ADMINISTRATION&FINANCE —473-7358 • PUf3LIC WOR S —473-7359 ASSESSING J , ' Island Latidowners February 15 , 1983 Page 2 A summary of the ordinance is attached .
