Malle David, Council Chair and Members of the County Council County of Hawaii December 27, 2021 Page 4 In 2018, the County Council approved Ordinance No. 18 115 to exempt the development of a 48.4-acre portion of the West Hawaii Business Park (WHBP) (hereinafter initial development area) from the requirement to construct the Kamanu Street Extension through the entire rezone area between Kalok-o Industrial area and Honok6hau industrial area (otherwise called 'project area' in the ordinance conditions). Since then, the applicant has secured Final Subdivision Approval of the initial development area and entered into a road construction agreement with Isemoto Contracting Company, Ltd. to provide the following roadway improvements: 1) the extension of Kanalani Street between the northern boundary of the project area to the northern boundary of Parcel 78; and 2) construction of the portions of North Access Road (now Kaula'ili Street) and the South Access Road (now Kimo Drive) between Kanalani Street and Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway (see Exhibit 2 of the application). Once the road sections are complete and dedicated to the County, final occupancy permits can be granted to properties within the initial development area for commercial, retail, and light industrial uses without triggering the required construction of Kamanu Street. Concurrent with this timeline, the following prospective developments have been proposed for two (2)parcels outside of the initial development area: 1. The applicant has entered into an agreement with an interested party for the acquisition of a 31.145-acre portion of the WHBP identified as TNIK 7-4-008:077 (Parcel 77) to establish a single use under single ownership. Based on this single- ownership and use, the property will not require subdivision into smaller lots as initially anticipated by the applicant. Therefore, the prospective buyer would like to provide access to Parcel 77 from the Kamanu Street Extension, which will be partially constructed from its existing pavement within TNM:7-4-020:013 to the southern boundary of TMK: 7-4-008:078 (Parcel 78) to County dedicable standards, including the provision of curb, gutter, and sidewalks as required by DPW in the approved Kamanu Street construction plans. Once complete, this section of Kamanu Street will connect from the mauka end of the project, through Parcel 77 to the southern terminus of the Kanalani Street Extension currently under construction at the makai portion of the property via a 20-foot wide, private internal driveway meeting with the requirements of the County of Hawaii Department of Public Works (see Exhibit 4 of the application). This would be done in lieu of the construction and dedication of County dedicable roadways within the property, as would be required by the approved circulation plan in the case of the property being subdivided. Based on consultation with the Planning Department, the applicant amended their original proposal for Condition N to require the completion of the Kamanu Street Extension through the rezone area prior to issuance of a CO should this current proposal not be realized, and Parcel 77 be further subdivided.
