A No <br />Vehicular Access 10 -foot wide Planting Screen Easement is identified along Komohana <br />Street fronting the property.

Traffic: According to the applicant, the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) manual <br />indicates that the AM/PM trip generation for general office use is 1.49 trips per 1,000 <br />square feet of gross floor area, thus the projected movements would be no more than <br />fourteen (14) movements for the approximately 9,000 -square foot office building. The <br />ITE manual further indicates that the AM/PM trip generation for a medical/dental office <br />use is 3.46 trips per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area, thus the projected movements <br />would be no more than 31 movements for the approximately 9,000 -square foot office <br />building.
