• <br /> Statement of Objective - Reason for Request <br /> When we built our home on this three acre property in 2006, our three teenage <br /> children were living with us. They are now all adults and living elsewhere. <br /> Our two oldest children (Sarah & Brandon) still live in Kona. Both now have <br /> families of their own. Through them and others, we see how expensive rental <br /> properties can be and how difficult it is for young families to make ends meet and <br /> then try to save the 20% deposit banks require to buy a home. <br /> There is plenty of space for a second home on our property. If approval is granted <br /> to change the zoning from A-3a to the requested FA-la, we could then secure a <br /> home mortgage loan (for the newly created parcel) and make home ownership <br /> possible for our daughter (Sarah), her husband (Derek) and our grandson (Ryder). <br /> We believe our desire to create a second parcel for a family member meets the <br /> intent of Hawaii County Policy LU-3.8 which states "the zoning allows only a small <br /> number of additional lots, consistent in scale with the transfer of lots to family <br /> members". <br /> While our street (Hiona) is often referred to as Keopu Heights, our parcel (along <br /> with two other mauka properties) are not part of the Keopu Heights Neighborhood <br /> Association (KHNA), nor are we legally required to abide by any of their CCR's. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> aa-44 4-.9,-. <br /> Charles E. Lipps, Jr. Janet S. Lipps <br />
