a. 1) Linda Cavis (mauka neighbor) concerned about "three vague options", feels this problem is not already solved. Dr. Tallan and Keopu access options per DWS r request for MG system hook-up, plus internal KCE option, depending on engineering issues. Option to cross Rapoza property is out. SCD does not intend to use the road Linda Cavis uses for waterline access. 2) Sammie Stanbro (mauka neighbor) says there is no water coming in from the top of the property. SCD intends to utilize either Dr. Tallan's access of the Hiona Street access, not Sammie Stanbro's road, for waterline access. 3) Adele DeCuyper wants Malulani Gardens hooked up to county DWS to increase the water pressure. SCD intends to bring County waterlines to MG subdivision to allow this to happen. 4) Brenda Ford of South Kona is concerned about there being sufficient water pressure and not having any "spaghetti" or Driscoll pipes in the project. The County DWS will assure that we provide sufficient water pressure. There will be no above-ground "spaghetti" or Driscoll pipes on the property, all lines will be below ground. 5) Cheryl King felt there is not enough water for this project. County DWS will not grant approval unless we have sufficient water for the project. Note that this project is primarily a residential use with an Ag component, and is not designed to be an Ag project with such a project's inherent higher water usage. 6) Lorraine Peters (mauka neighbor) says the water issue ash not been addressed. See above. 7) Jake Jacobs says there is insufficient water. See #5 above. 8) Adele DeCuyper (MG) says water is a barrier, only hookup is the one used by MG and Lowes, and that KCE will require a water reservoir 150' in elevation above the highest home. Many owners in MG, who are on a similar system, complain about inadequate water pressure. KCE has the option of building a private system similar to what she describes as approved by the County DWS, although the actual elevation difference is 100', not 150'. Our engineers tell us that the system should have sufficient pressure if designed and used properly. However, SCD plans to bring a new waterline down from the hillside in one of two accesses that SCD has. This will not only benefit the KCE project, but also the MG project as SCD intends to offer this waterline to MG owners as well, _ alleviating their existing pressure problems. 9) Sammie Stanbro (mauka neighbor) stated the Rapozas were against the waterline easement across their land that SCD had requested, and she doesn't know where the water is coming from. SCD did not receive a denial from the Rapozas for the waterline request until weeks after Sammie made this statement, so SCD was certainly not aware of any such position at that time. In any case, SCD has two other waterline transmission line location options at Dr. Tallan's lot and at Hiona Street. 10) Sammie Stanbro notes that SCD also owns the Keopu property, and that SCD could access their waterline through that route. This is accurate and is one of the options SCD is considering.
