required by Condition K of the subject ordinance (the remainder of Kimo Street and Kaula`ili Street between the highway and the Kanalani Street extension and Kanalani Street from its existing terminus in the Kaloko Light Industrial area south to Kimo Street, to County dedicable standards). While not required under Condition H,the approved roadway construction plans, and road construction contract include the further extension of Kanalani Street between Kimo Street and the northern property boundary of Parcel 78. For access to the mauka portion of Parcel 77,the applicant proposes to extend Kamanu Street from its existing pavement within TMK: 7-4-020:013 to the southern boundary of Parcel 78 to County-dedicable standards and construct an internal driveway with a minimum 20-foot pavement width, meeting with approval of the Department of Public Works, connecting the terminus of Kanalani Street at the northern boundary of Parcel 78 to the Kamanu Street right-of-way.According to the applicant, these access improvements will provide an internal connection between Kanalani Street and Kamanu Street that will be open and accessible to the public during normal business hours of the proposed single use on the property, thus providing an alternate route between Hina Lani Street and Kealakehe Parkway. In support of the request, the applicant submitted a letter from Wilson Okamoto Corporation (WOC) indicating that the proposed amendments would not result in a significant impact on traffic in the area, stating that, "With the implementation of the recommendations, traffic operations at the study intersections are generally expected to continue operating at levels of service similar to those as identified in the WHBP Traffic Impact Report(TIR). Therefore, it is expected that the recommendations and general conclusions provided in the WHBP TIR should continue to be valid and implemented. "In their August 2021 comment letter, the State Department of Transportation (DOT) concurred with WOCs findings, indicating that no additional traffic studies are required to support the proposed amendments. Furthermore, DOT i indicated that the proposed amendments and roadway improvements were consistent with the approved Roadway Circulation Plan required in Condition I of the subject ordinance and that the proposed amendments would have no significant, direct impacts to State highways. -to-
