Description

The current Kalaeloa Master Plan was adopted in 2006, while the Kalaeloa Community Development District Rules were adopted in 2012.

HCDA initiated the plan and rule amendments process in 2020, and since then there have been several meetings with landowners, stakeholders, and the community to update the plan and rules to meet the needs and aspirations of the Kalaeloa community.

The proposed amendments to the Kalaeloa Community Development District Rules are intended to clarify and streamline the land use permitting processes in Kalaeloa. This should improve regulatory predictability and consistency.

The amendments also establish a new zoning district for the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands and add special overlay zones to promote a main street character along Saratoga Avenue and to protect and interpret the historic landscape within the Ewa Plain Battlefield.

Minimum parking requirements are being eliminated to align with the City and County of Honolulu policies. Language is also being added to reflect Act 221 (2023), which amends HRS Section 206E-33 to require the Authority to consider climate change, sea level rise, and climate-resilient development in the design and sitting of buildings.
