DPP: Seeks Comments on Primary Urban Center Plan ‘Sneak Preview’

Dpp

Department of Planning and Permitting issued the following announcement on Dec. 30.

The Department of Planning and Permitting (DPP) is seeking comment on  a preview document of the Primary Urban Center Development Plan (PUC  DP) update. The “PUC DP All Policies Summary” is a complete collection  of the draft goals and policies that will make up the final PUC DP.

Because this update introduces a new format for the PUC DP, community  members are invited to a “sneak peek” of the draft policies in  anticipation of the full Public Review Draft release in early 2021.  The  plan’s themes (11 in all) each represent a chapter of the Plan. A copy  of the preview is available at https://bit.ly/3nZhBI1.

The PUC DP update kicked off in late 2017, including stakeholder  interviews, interagency coordination, several rounds of community  evening workshops, “pop-up” workshops, surveys, and other engagement.  Important themes include land use and transportation planning,  infrastructure, parks and open space, public services, economic  development, resource conservation, and planning for sea level rise. 

The Primary Urban Center stretches from Wai‘alae-Kāhala to Pearl  City, extending along a portion of the southern coastline to the top of  the mountain watersheds.  The PUC is home to about 440,000 residents and  makes up a large portion of O‘ahu’s population and highly urbanized  areas. The PUC DP guides development for projected growth and is a key  planning document that informs zoning, infrastructure investments, and  other City codes and standards.
