SMITH: Aloha Chair Vitousek, members of the Leeward Planning Commission. My name is Riley Smith. I'm the President and Chief Executive Officer of Lanihau Properties. I represent the Greenwell family with these lands that we own. We trace our roots back to 1850. So, we've been in existence over 170 plus years, okay. We are submitting this application. I'd like to also introduce our Planning Consultant Bill Moore. I've been in this role at Lanihau Properties for about 9 years or so, but Bill has been involved in this project for the last 25 years. So,between the two of us we represent the landowner's interests and are proposing this amendment to the zoning so that we can move forward and establish this use in a fiscally responsible manner. So, I'll turn it over to Bill. MOORE: Yeah, again appreciate Chair Vitousek and Commissioners, again, I think the staff did a really good presentation. The only thing I really wanted to point out is that we are not abandoning the requirement to build Kamanu Street. Christian,if you don't mind pulling up Exhibit 5. KAY: Yeah,just give me a moment. Which one is that,please Mr. Moore? MOORE: That's the one showing the remaining development areas that still will trigger the development or requirement of Kamanu Street. KAY: Okay,just give me a moment. MOORE: Yeah, it's Exhibit 5, it was a revised exhibit we did and is part of the addendum, it's a corrected version. KAY: Thank you, I'll bring that up in a moment. VITOUSEK: Is there anything you can go ahead with in the meantime? MOORE: Yeah, I thinktheexhibit will show there's about 170 acres of the West Hawaii Business Park that would trigger the occupancy of which would trigger the balance of Kamanu Street being constructed. So, it is not,we're not trying to get out of a condition. We're just trying to make this one project area viable in terms of being able to move ahead. So, the area in ' purple that light purple is any development and there other than corral related uses would trigger the balance of Kamanu Street to be constructed. So, it's still the majority of the property, if you look at it. Also want to point out that the Kanalani Street improvements which is shown on there are under construction." The anticipated construction date is end of December actually sometime in— SMITH: Yeah, maybe I can just comment on that. So, we're currently under construction. Isemoto Contracting is our contractor. They started work in June, our scheduled completion date is December of 2022. They are ahead of schedule; we expect to finish the road by August of 2022 and dedicate the County for public use by October of 2022. MOORE: So, again just want to be clear that we're moving ahead, we're not trying to get out of anything, we're just trying to make things work in terms of a single user for Parcel 77. Okay 8 EXHIBIT E
