§ 8-2.2 Method and Effect of Establishment of Districts.

(a) 
Any of the districts listed in Sec. 8-2.1 of this Chapter are or may be established for any portion of the County in map forms as provided in this Section.
(b) 
Sec. 8-2.3 shall constitute the "Zoning Maps" of the County of Kaua'i, an up-to-date copy of which shall be kept for public display in the office of the Planning Department.
(c) 
"Zoning Maps" and all notations, reference, data and other information defined and shown thereon shall be adopted as a part of this Chapter. Any change in the boundary of any district shall be by ordinance and shall constitute an amendment to the "Zoning Maps" and also an amendment to this Zoning Ordinance. As a part of any ordinance enacted by the County Council effecting a change in the zoning classification of any real property or boundary of any district within the County, there may be imposed conditions concerning the use or zoning classification of the real property involved.
(1) 
Conditions may be imposed at the discretion of the County Council for the purpose of preventing circumstances which may be adverse to public health, safety and welfare, to ensure, encourage or enhance the fulfillment of a public need involving public service, industrial or commercial needs or to preserve the heritage, character and beauty of the Island of Kaua'i, to assure substantial compliance with representations made by the petitioner in seeking the district boundary amendment.
(2) 
Conditions may include, but shall not be limited to, specifications of or limitation on any use, construction, landscaping or development of real property, and may contain provisions for submission and approval of plans, drawings, specifications, agreements and other documents to County Agencies and inspection by County Agencies as may be deemed necessary or desirable by the cognizant County Agencies.
(3) 
Conditions may be in the form of a condition precedent or a condition subsequent as the terms are used in common law and may provide that the zoning classification of the real property shall automatically change upon the occurrence of the specified condition.
(4) 
Conditions may contain specifications of time limitations or may be continuing.
(5) 
The Council may require the petitioner for district boundary amendment to submit a development schedule providing for the completion of development within a reasonable time period; to demonstrate financial, organizational and legal capacity to undertake the development that is proposed; and to offer written assurances of compliance with any representations made by the petitioner as part of the application and any specific conditions attached to approval of the application.
(6) 
The Council may require petitioners to submit periodic reports indicating what progress has been made in complying with any conditions that have been imposed by the Council under the provisions of this Section.
(7) 
If affordable housing conditions are included in an existing or future ordinance or if such ordinance is silent, no other affordable housing conditions shall be imposed on or agreed to by the petitioner or buyers, unless required by the State Land Use Commission, ordinance, or Planning Commission condition approved by the Council.
(d) 
Upon adoption of any district as a part of the "Zoning Map," the land thus defined shall become subject to the specific regulations for all of the districts in which it is located and to the provisions of this Chapter and except as otherwise provided:
(1) 
No building, structure or portion thereof shall be erected, or altered, nor shall any structure, land or premises be used except in the manner indicated and only for the uses permitted in the districts in which the building, structure, land or premises is located.
(2) 
No building, structure or portion thereof shall be established, erected, or altered to exceed the height limits and densities, or to encroach upon minimum setbacks and designated open spaces, or to exceed the land coverage limitations, as designated in this Chapter for the districts in which the structure is located.
(3) 
Every use of land shall at all times be located on a parcel of land having not less than the minimum area as designated for the districts in which the use is located.
(4) 
No building, structure, or portion thereof, and no use, activity or development subject to regulation under this Chapter shall be undertaken or established except in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter and without first obtaining the permits required by this Chapter.
(e) 
Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of any of the aforesaid districts as shown on the "Zoning Map," the following rules shall apply:
(1) 
Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets, highways, or alleys shall be construed to follow the centerlines.
(2) 
Boundaries indicated as approximately following plotted lot lines shall be construed as following the lot lines.
(3) 
Boundaries indicated as approximately following jurisdictional lines shall be construed as following the limits.
(4) 
Boundaries indicated as following shore lines shall be construed to follow the shoreline as defined in Sec. 205-31, H.R.S.; boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streams, rivers, canals, lakes, or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow the centerlines.
(5) 
The intent of the boundaries on the Zoning Maps is to differentiate relative uses or characteristics and is not intended to be a precise graphic definition. Where physical or cultural features existing on the ground vary from those shown on the "Zoning Map," or in other circumstances not covered by Subsections (a) through (d), the Planning Director shall determine the location of the boundaries.

1.
Requirements for Additional Dwelling Units (ADU) are contained in Article 15.

Only produce raised or grown on the property and/or associated farm or value-added goods derived primarily from produce or livestock raised on the subject property and/or associated farm.
3.

4.
If the Artisans Market I is located within the Open District, it may only be a permitted use if designated within the State Land Use Urban District.
5.
This use is subject to modified processes for Class I Zoning Permit application and post-approval protest. Prior to applying for a Class I Zoning Permit with the Planning Department, the applicant shall provide notice by certified mail to all landowners of record within three hundred (300) feet of the parcel boundary. When submitting the Class I Zoning Permit application, the applicant shall include an affidavit confirming completion of this notification requirement and attach a list of the landowner names, property addresses, and mailing addresses. If a written protest petition is filed with the Planning Department by more than fifty percent (50%) of landowners of record within three hundred (300) feet of the parcel boundary, within thirty (30) days of the date the applicant submits the Class I Zoning Permit application, the Planning Department shall deny the Class I Zoning Permit application and Planning Commission approval of a Use Permit shall be required. If the use is approved via a Class I Zoning Permit, but within any subsequent 12-month period a written protest petition is filed with the Planning Department by more than fifty percent (50%) of landowners of record within three hundred (300) feet of the parcel boundary, Planning Commission approval of a Use Permit shall be required, and the use shall cease unless a Use Permit is approved.
