Dear Chairman Hoffmann and Council Members:
Thank you for your favorable vote on the above referenced matter at the Committee on Planning
on October 16, 2007. This letter shall serve as a response to your questions and requests for
additional information made at that meeting.
t. In a letter dated May, 09, 2007, the Wastewater Branch of the State of Hawaii Department
of Health raised two questions about the Waste Water Treatment Plant (W W'I'P). First,
whether the existing W WTP could be expanded to accommodate the additional 306
housing units. Sewnd, clazification of the effects of the recent amendments to HRS 343
which includes language that triggers the need for an Environmental Assessment.
Attached are the approvals far the existing WWTP, the sign offby DOH for operation and the
County Certificate of Occupancy as well as plans from WSI International who is the supplier and
design engineer ofthe facility. These plans have been reviewed and approved by DOH.
As stated in the comment letter, Section 343-5{a) reads in part:
I'.O. liox 2308, Kuilua-Kona, FII 9(1745
Phono: (8a3) 32b-0G75 I'~uc; (SQS) 329•:5779 '
"(a) Except as otherwise provided, an environmental assessment shall be required for actions
that:...
...(9) Propose any (emphasis added)
(A) Wastewater treatment unit, except an individual wastewater system or
a wastewater treatment unit serving fewer than fifty single family
dwellings or the gquivalent:"
Since we are upgrading an existing facility rather then proposing a new facility we are awaiting
clarification of the requirements from the Department of Health. In any event, our plan is to
comply with the law.
2. TIAR - Attached is a copy of Bruce Witcher's updated report. It has been transmitted to the
Department ofTransportation, Department ofPW, and the Police Department. iYlr. Witcher has
referred to the 7s'version of the traffic study manual and addressed the projected impact of the
planned Palamanui project. The results of his analysis are not significantly affected by his
consideration of these additional bases of information.
3. Affordable Housing Policy - We have confirmed that the County of Hawaii statute defines
the Gfe-term of a rental project as 20 years. That said, the future developer and owner has
committed in other applications to the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation
("HHFDC") to operate the property as affordable rentals at less than 60%n of the AMI for the
next 55 yeazs. That portion of the HHFDC application is attached.
4. Department of Water Supply -Attached is a will-serve letter dated August 6, 2007. The
letter approves water for 306 units for the affordable rental project subject to four conditions.
The first two conditions, the Kalaoa Well upgrade and the construction of the Wainani reservoir
have been satisfied and conveyed to the Water Board. Attached are meeting minutes from those
meetings. The last two requirements, the high pressure bypass connection and the payment of
the prevailing facilities charge will be completed during construction.
5. Energy Efficiency Practices - We have worked together with Councilmember Pilago's
office to add language to the conditions that specifies the Energy Efficient Practices that will be
incorporated into this project. They include the following; Solar Water Heating, Low flow
plumbing fixtures Energy efficient light fixturelCompact Fluorescent Light bulbs Drought
tolerant landscaping and, to the extent feasible, Photovoltaic Solar Panels.
6. Parking -Our existing site plan shows 460 parking for use by tenants of the project. We are
committed to explore additional means of increasing parking for khe project, including but not
limited to assigned stalls, an on-site shared parking program, and other measures that meet with
the approval of the Planning Department.
Sincerely,

Aloha,
The following revisions were made to the narrative to [he T[AR for Lokahi originally submitted to
Westpro Development in 2005.
l The 7th edition of Trip Generation was used. This was obtained from the County Department of
Public Works.
2. The correction was made to the number of units to 306.
3. Trip generation was performed based upon the revised number of units and the new trip
generators. Some of the new trip generators were slightly elevated, sotne were lowered, but all
basically remained the same. The net result was a very minor change to the totals.
4. Since the changes were so minimal, all additional trips were applied to the intersection at
Ka'iminani Street and the new road. Level of service computations were run, and there were no changes
in levels of service when compared to the original report.
5. To be consistent with the otigina12005 report, and this being almost 2008, the period for which
the report was written, the 3.5%/year factor was not used for these additional units.
6. A scenario was put forth fot• the impact that Palamauui may have on the project. A valid at•gument
can be made that Palatnanui would be a benefit to the project.
We are sending the report in 3 separate files to be joined consecutively when you receive them.
[f you have any questions, please contact us.

1.,0[CAHI KA'U SUBDIVISION
KAILUA-KONA, HAWAII
REVISION TO TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS OF DECEMBER, 2005
TMK (3)7-3-010:003
L PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Seascape Developtnent wishes to revise the land use for the 50 acres to the south of the
present project, TMK (3)7-3-010:003 known as Lokahi Ka'u. This latest change is to be
structured as follows:
Lot #l Rental Units
l08 (1-bedroom)
l08 (2-bedroom)
90 (Studio Apartment)
Lot #2 108 Condominium Units
Lots #3 & #4 Will not be developed at this time
Initially, the project will be served by Kakahiaka Street. At some future date, it will be
sewed by the makai connector road,
Il. EXISTING CONDITIONS
This study assumes that all phases of the Lokahi Subdivision have been completed with the
exception of Phase V. It also assumes that no improvement will be made to any of the
intersections other than the construction of the new access road at Ka'iminani Road which
serves the makai end of Phase [I[.
III. TRAFFIC VOLUMES
The traffic counts of November 30, 2005 serve as the baseline in this report. Volumes will
be projected out to 2008.
IV. LEVEL OF SERVICE
Level of service is defined as "a qualitative tneasure describing operational
conditions within a traffic stream; generally described in terms of such factors as
speed and travel time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort and
convenience, and safety." There are six levels of operational conditions defined as
follows:
Level of Service A Little or no traffic delays
Level of Service B Short traffic delays
Page 1 of 8
Level of Service C Average traffic delays
Level of Service D Long traffic delays
Level of Service E Very long traffic delays
Level of Service F Extreme traffic delays
Levels of service were determined for the various turning movements for the intersection of
Ka'iminani Street and Kakahiaka Street for the existing conditions. Calculations were
perfomled in accordance with the analysis laid out in the Hiahwav Capacity Manual. Special
Rye ort 209 2"" Edition of fire Transportation Research Board, 1992 and the Highway
Capacity software from the Federal Highway Administration and McTrans, University of
Florida, Gainesville, FA. For all eastbound and westbound tovements (Ka'iminani), the
level of service was determined to be "A"; for all northbound and southbound movements
(Kakahiaka), the level of service was detetntined to be "B"
V. PROJECT TRAFFIC
A. Methodology
The trip generation tnethodology used in this report is based upon applications
developed by the Institute ofTranspoltation Engineers ([TE) and published in "Trip
Generation", 7'h Edition, 2003. Trip gcneratiotts have been developed for a variety
of land uses (or facility types) which correlated trips with dwelling units, area,
population, vehicle ownership; and intensity of use. Each facility type has a catalog
number for identification purposes. In this case, 210, for single-family, detached
dwellings, 221, Apartment low-rise, and 230, for multi-family condominium units.

The growth factor provided by the Department of Public Works, Traffic Division of 1.1087
for the period is based upon 3.5% growth per year. The assumptions of this report are as
follows:
A. All new traffic turning eastbound, mauka, goes out through Kakahiaka Street.
B. Traffic moving westbound makai, is apportioned as follows:
A. Phase I, [II and IV will use the new road for all makai bound traffic
B. Phase II traffic will use Kahakiaka Strcet.
C. Lots l & 2 of Lokahi Ka'u will use Kahakiaka Street.
C. Traffic moving eastbound, mauka, is apportioned as follows:
A. Phase I, II, HI, IV, Lot 1 & Lot 2 will use Kakahiaka Street
D. Development traffic moving form Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway is apportioned as
follows:
A. Phase I, [[I and IV traffic will enter by way of the new road.
B. Phase II and Lots l & 2 traffic will enter by way of Kahakiaka Street
E. All traffic moving from Mamalahoa Highway to the Development will use
Kahakiaka Street.
F. All traffic entering from the east will use the intersection of Ka'iminani Street and
Mamalahoa Highway.
G. All traffic moving eastbound will use the intetsection at Mamalahoa Highway.
H. All traffic moving either to, or from, the development at Mamalahoa Highway will
be split based upon the northbound and southbound movements.
80% of the aparttnent-generated traffic will be assumed to be traveling to and from
the Kohala resorts on Queen Ka'altumanu Highway.
J. The remainder of the traffic coming from Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway will be
apportioned in accordance wi[h the northbound and southbound movements on
Queen Ka'ahuntanu Highway.
K. At Kahakiaka Street, the traffic is split. 80% moves to and from Queen Ka'ahumanu
Highway, and 20% moves to and from Mamalahoa Highway.
L. Phase V is not considered in this scenario. [n any event, it can be said that Phase V
would enter and exit using Kapuahi Street. With the slowdown in real estate sales,
the start date can be expected to be pushed much further out than currently
anticipated.

VI. ROUTES
There are several routes and accesses to and from the project. These are as follows:
1. From Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway or Mamalahoa Highway to Kakahiaka Street and Kakahiaka
Street to the project, or the reverse when exiting the project. This has impact upon the intersections
of Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway and Ka'iminani Street, Kakahiaka Street and Ka'imittani Street,
and Mamalahoa Highway and Ka'iminani Street.
2. The makai route by way of Kakahiaka Street to the loop through the makai portion of Lokahi
subdivision connecting to a portion of the midlevel road (Anekoohokaloli Highway), already
constructed by the developer, along this midlevel road to Ka'iminani Street, then makai to Queen
Ka'ahumanu Highway. The intersections impacted are at the midlevel road and Ka'iminani Street
and at Ka'iminani Street and Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway.
3. Traveling from the project along Kakahiaka Street to the loop road in the Lokahi Subdivision
mauka, going mauka to Kapuahi Street, then Kapuahi Street to Ka'iminani Street, and in all
likelihood, travel mauka to Mamalahoa Highway. The intersections impacted would be Kapuahi
Street and Ka'iminani Street and Mamalahoa Highway and Ka'iminani Street.
4. A future route to Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway would be Kakahiaka Street to an improved
Homestead Road to the midlevel road to Ka' itninani Street to Queen Ka' ahumanu Highway. In this
report, it was assumed that traffic to and from the project makai would utilize this route rather than
through the Lokahi makai subdivision.
The third route was not studied in this study since it is assumed that, of all the routes, this would not be used
enough to warrant a study.
The question has been put forth concerning how the project, Palamanui, affects this project. Palamanui will
eventually connect to Ka'iminanin Street by the northerly extension of the new road, Aue Kcohokalolc
Street. Palamanui will also have two connections to Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway and one to Mamalahoa
Highway. With these facts in mind, a scenario can be assumed that traffic moving to Mamalahoa Highway
would use the Palamanui connecting road rather than Ka'iminani Street. Further, with two outlets onto
Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway, traffic from Palamanui leaving and moving north would, in all likelihood,
use the northerly access to Palamanui while traffic tnoving south would use the southerly access to Queen
Ka'ahumanu Highway. Traffic from this development would have a choice when traveling north and that
would be either turning left at Ka'iminani Street proceeding to Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway and then
turning north, or proceeding north on Ane Keokalole Street to the other access to Palamanui. Conversely,
traffic from the north having the development as its destination would have the choice of three routes, two
through Palamanui and one on Ka'iminani Street.
As a result, some reduction of traffic at Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway and Ka'iminani Street can be expected
with the development of Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway. Some residents of the development could choose
Page 7 of 8
to use the new access to Matnalahoa Highway rather than using Ka' iminani Street. This again would reduce
traffic on Ka'iminani Street.
Therefore, the impact of Palamanui on the development would be positive and beneficial.
VII. CONCLOSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Queen Ka'ahuaranu Highway and Ka'inrinani Street
Under this scenario, the intersection is impacted less than it would have been under the 2005 Report
scenario. This is particularly true for the morning peak hour. However, during the afternoon peak hour,
the westbound left (turning towards Kailua Town) is more impacted due to the southbound left movement
(People returning from work at the resorts). Queen Ka'ahutnanu Highway is due for some major work in
the near future, therefore, no mitigation measures are recommended at this time since the State design
process would address necessary mitigation.
Ka'iminani Street and Kahakiaka Street
Under this scenario, all the northbound movements, both morning and afternoon, at this intersection are
impacted more than in previous scenarios. However, it should be understood that this is the traffic that
comes from the Development. Since the eastbound and westbound tnovetnents are not impacted and remain
level of service "A", no turn lanes are required in Ka'iminani Street.
Ka'inrinani Street and Manralahaa Highway
Under this scenario, the intersection is impacted less than it would have been under previous scenarios. The
eastbound right movement remains level of service "E" and the intersection level of service remains "E"
as it is now. We understand that the Department of Public Works has recommended that a signal be
installed at this intersection. A signal wazrant study should be implemented to see if this is justified.
Ka'irninani Street and Ane Keohokalole Stree!
The construction of this intersection has little affect on Ka'iminani Street. The level of service is "A" For
Ka'iminani Sn~eet. Since, under this scenario, traffic volumes from [he development are somewhat less than
other scenarios, the northbound levels of service for Ane Kelohokalole are "C" rather than "D".
[n conclusion, although Ka'iminani Street is impacted, it is not greatly impacted by the development even
with a 3.5% growth factor factored into the future Vaffic movements. No turn lanes are justified. With the
widening of Queen Ka'ahuntanu Highway int the future, mitigation measures will be taken at that
intersection.

This letter supersedes our letter to you of July 10, 2007, to correct the Tex Map Key (TMK) Number.
We have reviewed the proposed offsite improvements and have the following comments.
We have no objection to a high pressure bypass connection between Palisades No. I and No. 2 reservoirs near
the intersection of Kaiminani Drive end Koikoi Street. The installation shall include a pressure
sustaining/pressure reducing station.
Based on our evaluation, we concur that a high pressure bypass connection will help to improve the pressure
conditions in the area and limit the impact of the subject development. These improveRtentS wilt allow us to
provide the 306 water units needed for the affordable rental project planned for Lot 1, TMK 7-3-010:003,
subject to the following conditions:
I. The Kalaoa Well upgrade to 500 gpm must be conveyed to the Water Board of the County of Hawaii and
operational.
2. The construction of the Wainani 0.5-MG Reservoir must be completed, conveyed to the Water Board of the
County of Hawaii, and operational.
3. The high pressure bypass connection must be completed, conveyed to the Water Board of the County of
Hawaii, and operations[.
4. The prevailing facilities charge, which is subject to change without notice, must be paid in full to the

C. DEPARTMENT OF WATER SUPPLY PROPOSED OPERATING AND
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGETS FOR FISCAL YhAR 2009-2008:
Chairman Goya stated that he would appreciate it if the members of the Board could be provided
with a tittle more detail regarding how the budget was formed and what considerations were made,
especially in the area he expressed befote regarding the filling of positions. If some of that
information were on these sheets, it would give the Board a littte more background to prepare to
ask staff the appropriate questions.
Mr. Tsunoda asked if Chairman Goya was asking for detail tike identifying vacant positions.
Chainman Goya replied that was correct. It seems like while the year goes along, the operating
expenses appear to have quite a bit of flexibility regarding salaries and benefits. It always seems to
be that the recorded is substantially below forecast. Maybe a little more information would help,
and highlight some of the key items for the Board regarding additional spending to meet some of
the Department's other requirements.
'fhe Manager stated that it is early in the schedule for budget discussion, so more details can be
provided for the next meeting.
In response to Mr. Tsunoda's question of whether Chairman Goya wanted more information on the
C.I.P. as well, he replied that he thinks that is open for discussion as well because the Board's

R, WATER USE AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN:
Mr. Beck gave the Board a brief presentation of whtu would be given to the pubhc at the
upcoming second series of public informational meetings on the LVater llse and Development Plan
(W IJDP) update by Pukunaga & Associates (consultant). "1'hc meeting schedule is as follows:
July 25, 2007, 6:00 p.m. l0 8:00 p.m. Aupuni Center Conference Room
July 26, 2007, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. - Naalehu Cornrnunity Center
July 31, 2007, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.tn. -Waimea Community Center
August I , 200'7, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. -King Kamehameha Kona 13cach Flotcl
Mr. Beck handed out an Executive Summary to the Board and reviewed the nine major aquifers
and different scenarios for each.
Mr. fleck asked if this was the same presentation the consultant would be giving at the different
districts and if it would be for the whole island or localized for each district they visit.
ivU. Beck replied it is similar but this one is a reduced version and is for the whole island. When
the consultant presemtod this in their first round of public meetings last year, the majority of the
comments received dealt primarily with agricultural lands. This study attributes the greatest
demand worst-case scenario to agricultural lands, and the comments were that it was not realistic--
that people wilt not plant crops in areas where they have to do a lot of pumping. They are going
to rely on the natural precipitation in that area, so the true demand would be much less than those
worse-case scenarios.
In response to Mr. ldeck's question if they had more information about agricultural use yet,
Mr. Beck replied that the Agricultural Water Usc Development Plan is expected to come out by
the end of this year, about the same time the W CiDP would be wrapping up. !t would almos[ be
nice to delay this WUDP and incorporate that information; but this is supposed to be updated on a
five-year cycle and Chis will be the first update since 1992. This started in 2004 and it is taking
until 2008 to complete.
l'hc Manager stated that there is an Ordinance that requires rho WUDP to be updated curry live
years, so part of the eonstdtant process is to have them conduct a session with the Council to
educate them on the process and to see if they would redo the Ordinance.
Y1s. Kim asked who is doing the Agricultural Water L'se Development Plan.
