(The project was reduced from 36 to 24 units). I am enclosing the proposed location, site, and elevation plans. Mr. Mochida's 67,500 square foot property, using the "ohana" provisions of the Zoning Code, is entitled to 12 units. These units can either be duplexes or single-family residences. If it were developed as such, for the most part the units would be rented. Under that basis, Mr. Mochida would NOT have to make any curb, gutter, and sidewalk and off-site drainage improvements. In lieu of exercising that option, Mr. Mochida is proposing 24-townhouse units which are expected to be sold, for the most part, to OWNER-OCCUPANTS. The prices for these 2 and 3-bedroom units are tentatively expected to range between $300,000 to $400,000. As part of this process, Laukapu Street would be widened and there would be curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements on the west side of Laukapu Street between Lanikaula and Leilani Streets. . As you know, I am a planning consultant assisting Mr. Mochida on this matter. I would appreciate any thoughts you may have on this matter. Please use the enclosed form and mail it back to we in the self-addressed, stamped envelope before November 10. Also, please feel free to contact me at 969-1522 or by email at sidfiike@hawaiiantel.net . Thank you very much for your interest and cooperation on this matter. Sincerely, SIDNE*MFUKE Planning Consultant Enclosures
