Del.icio.usThe city and its consultants will update the public from 7 to 9 tonight (Sept. 5) on the North Shore Sustainable Communities Plan in the Haleiwa Elementary School cafeteria.
The plan was adopted in 2000 and is up its five-year comprehensive review. This will be the first meeting to discuss the future vision for the North Shore as reflected in the plan. Oahu’s various SCPs provide conceptual, long-range visions and policies to guide decisions on land use and infrastructure.
For the North Shore,planners and residents have focused on the following key elements:
* Establish rural, agriculture and preservation boundaries
* Support diversified agriculture * Enhance recreation and education
* Designate Haleiwa and Waialua as “country towns”
* Retain Waialua Mill as a regional industrial center
* Limit new housing to areas contiguous to Haleiwa and Waialua
* Provide adequate public infrastructure, facilities and services
* Retain cultural and historic resources
* Adapt the ahupuaa concept in land use and natural resource management
