Haw. Code R. § 15-22-33 - MUZ-R: purpose and intent
The mixed-use zone residential emphasis (MUZ-R) established by this chapter is designed to promote and protect the public health, safety, and general welfare. These general goals include, among others, the following specific purposes:
(1)
To provide a mixed-use subarea whereby residential, commercial, industrial and
public uses may coexist compatibly within the same area. The primary emphasis
within this zone shall be to develop a predominantly multi-family residential
multi-storied area which will support a wide variety of housing types, with a
mixture of residents of various age groups, incomes, and family groups which
will be located above the industrial and commercial uses; together with
appropriate community facilities for residents and workers;
(2) To encourage industrial uses in
appropriate areas provided they meet reasonable performance
standards;
(3) To encourage
developers to provide a certain amount of reserved housing units, for Hula Mae
and the unserviced groups;
(4) To
create a truly mixed-use area, both vertically, as well as horizontally, of
commercial, industrial, and multi-family uses, by regulating the density of
population and the bulk of buildings in relation to the land around them and to
one another, and by providing for off-street parking spaces; to require the
provision of open space; to encourage the development of job opportunities for
the residents in the area;
(5) To
provide freedom of architectural design, in order to encourage the development
of more attractive and economic building forms;
(6) To promote the most desirable use of land
and direction of building development in accord with a well-considered plan, to
promote stability of commercial, industrial, and multi-family development, to
protect the character of the district and its peculiar suitability for
particular uses, and to conserve the value of land and buildings; and
(7) To encourage the development of
integrated multi-decked projects as planned developments within the zone, thus
ensuring maximum building densities and providing appropriate vertical mixtures
of uses.
