it's fully vegetated at the moment. The applicant has not cleared the property, and it has stayed like this since approximately 2006. This again is a site photo showing you the views of the subject property. The photo to your left shows the view of Kaloko Drive looking northeast. The subject property is located on your right. As you can see again, as I stated, it is vegetated. The photo on your right shows the view of Hao Street looking south, and the subject property is located to the left, which again is fully vegetated. Right now the Planning Directors is recommending that we forward a favorable recommendation to the County Council for amendment to Condition D, Condition E, and the deletion of Condition J of Change of Zone Ordinance number 06 82. That concludes my presentation, and I can turn the floor back to the Chair. VITOUSEK: Mahalo. We will continue with a presentation from the applicant and their planning consultant, and then we can do fact-finding questions from the Commissioners after the completion of that presentation. So we have Mr. Sidney Fuke, Planning Consultant, and Clinton Hinchcliff, the applicant. Would you please raise your right hand so I can swear you in? Mahalo. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth on the matter before the Planning Commission—and that'd be you, too, Mr. Hinchcliff. FUKE: I do. HINCHCLIFF: I do. VITOUSEK: Okay, Mahalo. Please proceed with your testimony. FUKE: Sure. Good morning, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. My name is Sidney Fuke. My residence address is in Hilo, Hawaii. With me is the applicant, Clinton Hinchcliff. He'll be there primarily to answer any questions that the Commissioners may have or for which I have no response to. You know, we've had a chance to review the staff's recommendation and the proposed conditions and found them to be acceptable. I'd like to just kind of give you some background in terms of the reason for the request. Mr. Hinchcliff is a local boy born and raised here, you know, in the Kona area. He and the family, you know, acquired interest in the property in 2020, uh 2010 thereabouts, but the property was mired in litigation, and so nothing really could happen until the litigation was completely done, and Mr. Hinchcliff retained full control of the property about in 2016. Then he filed for the subdivision application only to be, only to learn that the, you know, the time had expired, and hence the reason why we are before you today. It's a seven-lot subdivi- it's a proposed seven-lot subdivision. The intention Mr. Hinchcliff has is to, it's a family subdivision, he has two children, he has a nephew that kind of wants to, he wants to be able to convey, you know, like at least three of those lots to family members. In addition to that, his father also, you know, is interested in one of the lots. And at the end of the day, maybe sell two of those lots to 4 EXHIBIT C (DRAFT)
