Police Depai tment Headquarters complex and St. Joseph's School are located nearby on Kapi`olani Street. The adjacent properties to the north were rezoned in 2009 to RM-1.5 in order to develop a four-story, 100-unit residential complex, which has not yet been developed. 11. Flood Zone: Zone "X", an area determined by FEMA to be outside the 500-year flood plain. 12. FloraUFaunal Resources: A flora and faunal survey of the property was conducted by Geometrician Associates, LLC in June 2009. The survey found no rare, threatened or endangered floral or faunal species on the property,but recommended against removing or disturbing vegetation during the months of June and July in order to avoid impacts to any roosting endangered Hawaiian hoary bats, which are difficult to detect. 13. Historical/Archaeologic&Cultural Resources: The property has previously been grubbed and graded; therefore it is unlikely that any historic resources remain on the site. In a letter dated May 9, 2013 the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) State Historic Preservation Division determined that no historic properties would be affected by the proposed project because urbanization has altered the land. There are no known cultural resources on the property. 14. Public Access: There is no record of a designated public access to the shoreline or mountain areas that traverses the property. 15. Scenic Resources: The property sits at an elevation of about 90 feet above sea level and is relatively flat. There are no scenic views from the property. 16. Traffic: A Revised and Updated Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIAR)was prepared in April 2013 by Witcher Engineering LLP to determine the impacts of developing an 88- unit affordable housing project(included in P.D. Exhibit 2). The report determined that the proposed project will not change the acceptable levels of service at the Kapi`olani Street/Hualalai Street intersection. PUBLIC UTILITIES AND SERVICES 17.
