<br /> i <br /> EMLER: Yeah, we also ask that they provide a setback along that side to establish a <br /> possible future collector road width of 60 feet -that's not entirely in their property, dust their <br /> share of it, right -and to stay back from that with any grading efforts that they do to, and <br /> possibly do some grading along there, to establish a proper foundation for a roadway there that <br /> could be improved in the future. That is what we were looking for. <br /> HOUSEL: I see. <br /> EMLER: And also obtain the additional width for a possible turn lane there in the <br /> future, if that's necessary. <br /> WATANABE: Could I interject a second? So just for clarification, then you are looking <br /> for the rights so that potentially you could realign to some degree Hualalai Road and also provide <br /> a 60-foot wide north-south connector? <br /> EMLER: North-south, I wouldn't use those directions but, because Hualalai Road is <br /> basically a mauka-makai connector road. <br /> WATANABE: Yeah, right, right, okay. <br /> EMLER: That's, what you're just asking about, yes, that's what we are looking for. <br /> i <br /> WATANABE: Okay. And would regard <br /> EMLER; The General Plan what is establishes it as a collector road and it gives ~ <br /> Collector roads in the Subdivision Code are generally, and in our specifications, are 60 feet - <br /> that's why. <br /> WATANABE: Okay. And you also heard the concern about the north-south road through <br /> this proposed subdivision meandering, and I'm wondering if you have any feedback on that. <br /> EMLER: Well, certainly I think the former testifier pointed out an inconsistency in <br /> the layout of this subdivision as opposed to the layout in the adjacent subdivisions. We made <br /> that clear to the developer that that is something that might concern us because, you know, <br /> connectivity is an issue, that we are looking for connectivity. We wouldn't want to necessarily j <br /> be discouraging people from driving through this way; that's possibly what could occur in <br /> something that's very tight, and somebody might choose to go the other way instead, if they <br /> didn't want to take a circuitous route. But technically what we are looking for is a safe road, too, <br /> and you need to establish proper sight distances at intersections along the route based on what <br /> the j <br /> ii <br /> WATANABE: Grade is, too. <br /> i <br /> EMLER: Appropriate design speed for the road would be. It should be designed, <br /> you know, generally similar to what the adjacent roadways would be designed for us. <br /> WATANABE: Okay <br /> i <br /> 11 <br /> <br />
