The Leeward Planning Commission, at its duly held public hearing on October 18, 2018,
recommended for your approval the proposed legislative bill for an amendment Project District
Ordinance No. 99 42. The properties are located adjacent to the west of the Kona Village Resort,
makai of Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway, between the 87 and 84 mile marker, Kaupulehu,North
Kona, Hawai`i.

In addition to the favorable recommendations articulated below, the Planning Commission
requested that the County Council evaluate the public access condition (Condition S) to determine if
implementation of the public access plan can be triggered prior to the opening of the golf course to a
more publicly beneficial time period.
The Commission concurs with the following Planning Director's reasons for recommending
favorable consideration of the request and to the County Council to accept the Overall Status Report
required by Condition BB of Project District Ordinance 99 42 and to amend Condition B of project
District Ordinance 99 42 to grant a twenty(20) year time extension to the Kaupulehu Project
District development period.
The applicant is requesting a 20-year extension of time to Condition B (Development
Period) of Project District Ordinance No. 99 42, which rezoned 1,078.634 acres from Open
to Project District. Condition No. B currently states:
"This project area shall be called the Kaupulehu Project District. The
development period for the Kaupulehu Project District will be 20 years
from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance. "
The non-performance is the result of conditions that could not have been
foreseen or are beyond the control of the applicant,successors or assigns, and that are
not the result of their fault or negligence. As discussed above, the applicants have been
diligently developing Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B over the last 19 years. The original applicant
anticipated a 20-year development period at the time of application, however, given the
complexity of developing such a large project and the 2008 recession, the applicants were
unable to meet that deadline. The project has seen consistent growth and investment over the
years, including the development of the required infrastructure; spine roads, water supply,
sewage treatment, power supply, and grading rading and excavation; all of which will meet the
future needs of the community. The majority of Lot 4-B has been completed with the
remaining dwelling units to be complete within 2 to 3 years and the applicants estimate that
future phases of Lot 4-A development will be complete over the next 20 years, based on
current market demand. The Director deems Condition BB satisfied and therefore is
recommending the removal of that condition. The applicants will still be compelled to
provide the Planning Department with an Annual Progress Report as required in Condition
AA. Moreover, the Planning Director is recommending adding the standard time extension
condition, which provides guidance on how to request additional time, if needed.

and Members of the County Council

Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the General Plan or the
Zoning Code or for the original reasons for granting the permit. The LUPAG
designation for the subject parcel is Resort Node and the Project District zoning allows for a
mixture of residential, resort, commercial and recreational uses. Moreover, the
project continues to be consistent with goals, policies and actions articulated in the Land Use
and Economic elements of the General Plan. In addition, land use policies in the
2008 Kona Community Development Plan (KCDP), direct urban growth into compact,
mixed-use communities that provide a mix of uses, services and amenities in the same
development. The Kaupulehu Project District is guided by Director approved Master Plans
that are consistent with this preferred development pattern.
The original reasons for the approval of the Project District Ordinance are still
applicable, and the time extension request is not contrary to these reasons. The proposed
uses continue to be an appropriate use of lands within the Project District and the remaining
development is consistent with the surrounding land use pattern. Moreover, the
infrastructures and facilities will remain privately developed and managed, so continued
development will not place undue burden on the County to provide those services. Plans for
future development of the Property have not significantly changed since the Planning
Commission and County Council originally approved the subject ordinance, so the requested
amendment would not be contrary to the original reasons for granting Project District
Ordinance 99 42.
Lastly,this approval is made with the understanding that the applicant remains
responsible for complying with all other applicable governmental requirements in
connection with the approved use, prior to its commencement or establishment upon the
subject properties. Additional governmental requirements may include the issuance of
building permits, compliance with the Fire Code, installation of improvements required by
the American with Disabilities Act(ADA), among many others. Compliance with all
applicable governmental requirements is a condition of this approval; failure to comply with
such requirements will be considered a violation that may result in enforcement action by the
Planning Department and/or the affected agencies.
Based on the preceding, the Planning Director recommends that a favorable
recommendation be forwarded to the County Council to amend Project District
Ordinance No. 99 42. In addition, the Planning Director recommends revision of some
existing conditions in the ordinance to reflect current standard language for conditions of
approval. The accompanying draft bill reflects these recommendations and changes. Material
to be deleted is bracketed and struck-through; new material is underscored.

KD ACQUISITION, LLLP AND HUALALAI INVESTORS, LLP (FORMERLY

Department, Planning Commission and County Council as required by Condition BB of Project
District Ordinance No. 99 42, which rezoned 1,078.634 acres from Open to Project District. The
applicants are requesting a determination from the Planning Commission and County Council if
a time extension to Condition B (Development Period) is needed. If it is determined to be
needed, the applicants are requesting a 20-year time extension to comply with Condition B. The

048, 050 to 058 and 7-2-030: 001 to 035 (collectively"Lot 4- B").
APPLICANT'S REQUEST
1. Request: The applicants' request is twofold: First, the applicants are requesting a
determination from the Planning Commission and County Council if a fon-nal request for
a time extension of the 20-year development period articulated in Condition B
(Development Period) is needed. Condition B states:
"This project area shall be called the Kaupulehu Project District. The
development periodfor the Kaupulehu Project District will be 20 years from the
effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance. "
Second, if the County Council determines a time extension to Condition B is needed, the
applicants are requesting a 20-year time extension to allow the completion of remaining
development activities on the subject parcels. The effective date of Ordinance No. 99 42
was April 10, 1999, thus the twenty(20) year development timeline culminates on
April 10, 2019.
2. Reasons for the Request: According to the applicants, the 20-year development period
for the Kaupulehu Project District comes from a representation made in the Project
District Application in 1998 that, "Full buildouts of the project is expected over 20
years..." The applicants believe that the inclusion of the 20-year development period
condition was likely only intended to allow the Planning Department, Planning
Commission and County Council an opportunity to review the overall progress of the
development of the project after 20 years as required by Condition BB of Project District
Ordinance No. 99 42, which reads:
"Twenty (20)years from the effective date of the Kaupulehu Project District
Ordinance, the applicant shall submit an overall status report of the project,
including the percentage of completed development. The Planning Director shall
also provide an assessment of the.development of the Project District and its
compliance with conditions of approval for transmittal to the Planning
Commission for their review and recommendation and then forwarded to the
County Council for their review and action. "
The applicants believe that if the Planning Department, the Planning Commission and
County Council, intended for the applicants to apply for a formal time extension of the
20-year development period, Condition BB of Project District Ordinance No. 99 42,
would not have been included as a condition of approval. Rather, the ordinance would
have specifically required the processing of a formal time extension request before the
Planning Commission and County Council, instead of requiring the submittal of an
overall progress report for review and consideration. Furthermore, the applicants note
that Project District Ordinance No. 99 42 lacks the standard condition of approval
generally afforded to all new Change of Zone/Project District Ordinances, which
provides an applicant a one-time opportunity to apply for an administrative time
extension by the Planning Director, in the event that non-performance with the stated
conditions of approval was the result of conditions that could have not been foreseen, or
were beyond the control of the applicant, and was not the result of the applicant's fault or
negligence. The applicants believe that this condition was omitted inadvertently, citing
-2-
other Project District ordinances adopted during the same time period which included this
condition. Based on the preceding and the information provided in the overall status
report, the applicant is requesting a determination from the Planning Commission and
County Council whether or not a time extension to Condition B (Development Period) is
needed. If it is determined that a time extension is needed, the applicants are requesting a
20-year time extension to allow the completion of remaining development activities on
the subject parcels. (P.D. Exhibit 1 —Project District.Ordinance.Amendment).

Dear Mr. Yee:
On behalf of our clients, KD Acquisition, LLLP ("KD"), and Hualalai Investors, LLC
("HILLC") (collectively referred to herein as the "Parties"), we hereby submit the Overall
Status Report covering the development areas Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B, in compliance with and
pursuant to Project District Zoning Ordinance No. 99-42 ("PDO 99-42"), Condition BB.
Condition BB of PDO 99-42 states:
"Twenty (20)years from the effective date of the Kaupulehu Project District Ordinance,
the applicant shall submit an overall status report of the project, including the
percentage of completed development. The Planning Director shall also provide an
assessment of the development of the Project District and its compliance with conditions
of approval for transmittal to the Planning Commission for their review and
recommendation and then forwarded to the County Council for their review and action."

Paget •
• Pursuant to Condition BB, the subject condition provides that an overall status report of
the project be submitted to the Planning Department twenty (20) years from April 10, 1999 or
the effective date of the PDO 99-42 (and thus is not due until April 10, 2019).
Condition B of PDO 99-42 also provides that: "This project area shall be called the
Kaupulehu Project District. The development period for the Kaupulehu Project District will be
20 years from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance." By virtue of the
submission of this Overall Status Report at this time, the Parties are also requesting clarification
from the Leeward Planning Commission and the County Council that the 20-year development
period need not be the subject of a formal request for time extension of the "development
period", as PDO 99-42 does not specifically establish a deadline to complete all development
within 20 years, nor does it require the filing of a formal time extension to extend the
development period.
In the alternative, if the Leeward Planning Commission and/or County Council ultimately
determine that a formal amendment to Condition B of PDO 99-42 is necessary, KD requests that
these bodies take action on this formal amendment discussed in Section IV below.
As we discussed with the Planning Department on numerous occasions, both Lot 4-A
(Kaupulehu) and Lot 4-B (Hualal'ai Resort Expansion II) have been substantially developed over
the past 18 years, with all spine infrastructure, community benefits and public access amenities •
in place for many years. We have attached charts relating to development areas Lot 4-A and Lot
4-B (collectively the "Property"), which outline the various conditions of approval and the
status of the Parties' respective compliance with the stated conditions of approval for their
portion of the Property.
The following sections provide a summary on the history of the entitlements for the
Property (Section I), and report on Parties' development activities since the,effective date of
PDO 99-42 (Sections II and III), the development plans for beyond 2019 (Section IV), the
Parties' position on the development period prescribed under Condition B of PDO 99-42
(Section V), and in the alternative, a request for a 20-year time extension to the development
period under Condition B, if the Leeward Planning Commission and County Council determine
that the processing of a formal time extension is required (Section VI).
I. ENTITLEMENTS HISTORY FOR LOT 4-A AND LOT 4-B
On October 18, 2001,'the State Land Use Commission ("LUC") issued Findings of Fact,
Conclusions of Law, and Decision and Order under Docket No. A93-701 ("Docket No. A93-
701"), which amended the district classification for a majority of Lot 4-A1 and all of Lot 4-B
from the "Conservation District" to the "Urban Districti2.
' Approximately 37.064 acres within portions of TMK: (3)7-2-010:022 and 023 at Kaupulehu were left in the
Conservation District, as this area comprises an existing archaeological preserve.
2 The original Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Decision and Order entered on June 17, 1996 were revised
on October 18,2001 after the Supreme Court in Ka Pa'akai 0 Ka'Aina v. Land Use Commission, 94 Haw.31,46, 7
P.3d 1068, 1083 (2000),vacated the Commission's Decision and Order and remanded the case for the limited

The original Petitioner under Docket No. A93-701, Kaupulehu Developments, proposed
to develop a residential community consisting of 530 single-family homes and 500 low-rise
multiple-family units to complement the adjacent resort development, a 36 holes of golf, a golf
clubhouse, an 11-acre neighborhood commercial center with 45,000 sq.ft. of leasable space, a 3-
acre residents/members recreation club, and a 70-acre area abutting the north boundary of Lot 4-
A for public shoreline access facilities, other recreational uses and cultural activities.
On December 11, 1998, the County Planning Commission approved Special Management
Area Use Permit No. 389 ("SMA 389") to allow the development of a resort residential
community within Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B, to include'a resident's beach club, golf course and
clubhouse, a Hawaiian interpretive center, and other related facilities. SMA 389 was ratified and
reaffirmed by the County Planning Commission on December 30, 1999.
On April 10, 1999, the County of Hawaii approved PDO 99-42, which changed the
zoning for Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B from the "Open" zone to "Project District". PDO 99-42'
permitted the development of the same number of dwellings/units and elements allowed under
Docket No. A93-701.
Although PDO 99-042 was granted on April 10, 1999, as noted above, the State Land
Use Boundary Amendment entered on June 17, 1996 was appealed and under review by the
Hawaii Supreme Court, until it rendered its decision in Ka Pa'akai 0 Ka'Aina v. Land Use
Com'n, State of Hawaii, 94 Hawaii 31, 7 P.3d 1068 (2000), on September 11, 2000, which
remanded the case back to the LUC. Thereafter, the LUC entered its Findings of Fact,
Conclusions of Law, and Decision and Order on October 18, 2001, which amended the district
classification of Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B from the "Conservation District" to the "Urban District".
SMA 389, which was originally approved by the Planning Commission on December 4,
1998, was also subject to an appeal. Upon remand to the Planning Commission, SMA 389 was
ratified and reaffirmed on December 30, 1999. Thus, it wasn't until after October 18, 2001 that
the original Petitioner could proceed with their development plans with the final decisions on its
LUC and SMA entitlements.
The Planning Department subsequently approved SUB-7571-Revised on September 18,
2002, which subdivided the Property covered by the subject entitlements into Lot 4-A
(Kaupulehu) and Lot 4-B (portion of Hualalai Resort), respectively.
HILLC became the successor applicant from Kaupulehu Makai Venture for those lands
comprising Lot 4-B on June 1, 2006. KD became the successor applicant for those lands
comprising Lot 4-A on June 9, 2014, when WB KD Acquisition, LLC' was converted to KD
Acquisition LLLP.

Hawaiian resources. A portion of Kaupulehu Lot 4-A was previously reclassified from Conservation to Urban in
Docket No. A81-524.

DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY FOR LOT 4-A (Kaupulehu)
A. Lot 4-A Development Areas.
KD plans to develop Lot 4-A in two incriements, namely "Increment I" and
"Increment 2". In addition to the main spine infrastructure, the Interpretive
Center, and the opening of the public access areas along the coastline of the
Kaupulehu project, KD's development activities to date have focused on the
Increment 1 lands comprising the developable makai oceanfront lands within Lot
4-A. (See attached "Exhibit A" - Lot 4-A Site Plan).
KD developed Increment 1 in two phases, specifically "Increment 1, Phase 1" and
"Increment 1, Phase 2" based on the Project District Site Plan approval issued by
the Planning Department on July 2, 20031, which allowed the development of 80
residential lots and implementation of KD's Utility Master Plan.
The vacant Increment 2 lands are located immediately mauka of Increment 1,
within TMK Nos.: (3) 7-2-010:023, 024 land a portion of 025. Based on market
demand, KD plans to develop Increment 2 in one or more phases with the
residential unit types divided between single-family estate lots and multiple-
family units, an 18-hole golf course and golf clubhouse, and commercial/retail
opportunities. See Exhibit A.
Following the subdivisions of Increment 1, Phase 1" and "Increment 1; Phase 2",
the Planning Department approved 2 additional subdivisions4 and 10
consolidations5, which produce a total of 74 single-family residential lots
developed within Lot 4-A, as of the date sof this report.
The following sections will further describe the elements that have been
developed within Lot 4-A to date.
1. Increment 1, Phase 1 Developmen.t (SUB-7891)
The Planning Department approved the Increment 1, Phase 1 subdivision
on December 30, 2004 under Final Subdivision Approval No. SUB-7891-
Revised and this phase consisted lof 38 single-family residential lots and
11 bulk lots. The Increment 1, Phi ase subdivision improvements were
completed in 2008. The construction of single-family dwellings by the
individual lot owners is still on-going and is expected to continue into the
near future.

SUB 7891-Revised also created the lot for the future Kaupulehu Beach
Club, which is now located on TMK: (3) 7-2-031:031. The 3,274 sq.ft.
Kaupulehu Beach Club received final Plan Approval from the Planning
Department on August 20, 2007 and the County issued a final inspection
for the completed structure on January 20, 2009. KD also completed 5
public access parking stalls located at the Beach Club to facilitate public
access to the shoreline. The Beach Club is currently open and available
for use by Kaupulehu club members and their guests.
The above subdivision also included roadway improvements to facilitate
access to the future site of the Interpretive Center. The Interpretive Center
was intended to provide a place where the public could obtain educational
information on the sensitive cultural, natural, and shoreline resources
found within the Kalaemano Cultural Preserve, which comprises a
majority of the oceanfront area along the northwestern portion of TMK:
(3) 7-2-010:022.
On May 7, 2006, the Planning Department issued a Final Plan Approval to
allow the construction of the 900 sq.ft. Interpretive Center within Parcel
22, which also included demonstration lawn, public mens' and womens'
restrooms, as well as 33 public p irking stalls, 2.ADA accessible stalls, and
2 bus-parking.stalls. The County issued a final inspection for the
completed structures on February 7, 2008.
In 2013, KD also constructed a 530 sq.ft covered trellis to provide another
shaded area for the Interpretive Center visitors. (See "Exhibit B" -
Interpretive Center Site Photos).
The lineal descendants from Kaupulehu recently requested that KD
relocate the Star Compass' from TMK: (3) 7-2-012:008 within the
Hualalai Resort to the Interpretive Center, in addition to constructing a
new Hale Wa'a (canoe hale) adjacent thereto. KD recently submitted a
Plan Approval Application to the Planning Department to construct a 44'
X 28' Hale Wa'a. The Hale Wa'a will be accessible through a path
extending from the existing public parking lot area. Once the applicable
permits are approved, KD expects to start construction activities on these
elements immediately.
Although the Interpretive Center las been completed for some time,
access to the Interpretive Center is currently restricted to cultural
practitioners, the area's lineal descendants, and guided tours for schools
and other groups by appointment 'only. The guided tours for the schools
may consist of overnight stays at the Interpretive Center to allow for
lessons on celestial navigation and tours to the various cultural sites within
the Kalaemano Cultural Preserves', such as the salt pans, with the objective
to provide students with an opportunity to learn about cultural practices

from old Hawaii. The completioti of the Hale Wa'a will serve to further
• enhance the cultural and educational experience for the Interpretive Center
user and the Kaupulehu lineal descendants.
KD desires to open the Interpretive Center to the general public on an
unrestricted basis based on available parking, however, KD is prevented
from doing so, as the opening of the Interpretive Center to public use is
contingent upon the State Historic Preservation Division ("SHPD")
•
approving the Revised Long-Term Preservation Plan ("Plan") for the
Kalaemano Cultural Preserve. (See enclosed CD diskette - Preservation
Plan). The approval of the Plan vill allow KD to complete the
implementation of the required mitigative measures, such as the
preservation site buffers, and the installation of path improvements with
interpretive and directional signage to facilitate public access from the
Interpretive Center through the rocky Kalaemano Cultural Preserve to the
•shoreline. KD plans to start implementation of the mitigate measures as
soon as the SHPD approves the Plan. KD's archaeologist follows up
regularly with the SHPD on the approval of the Plan and KD is hopeful
that the SHPD will approve the Ilan soon.
Once the Interpretive Center is opened to the public, under the direction of
the area kupuna and•lineal decedents, KD plans to direct all public access
users to the Interpretive Center toll obtain an informal orientation on the
Kalaemano Cultural Preserve and use of the shoreline area. Since there
are vast amounts of preservation sites and areas currently being utilized
for cultural practices, the steward's of the Interpretive Center will educate
the public on the proper use of the area to minimize impacts to these
sensitive sites. KD will also use this opportunity to educate the public
about safely navigating the very rugged shoreline terrain and sea cliffs.
The shoreline area is almost entirely devoid of any ocean-accessible sandy
beach areas, which is not conducive for typical ocean activities such as
swimming. Coupled with the Kaupulehu Reserve, which the State
established on July 29, 2016 to,pi ohibit the taking or possession of any
aquatic life within the preserve boundary for 10 years,
KD anticipates that
the typical public access user will consist of those individuals interested in
learning about the Kalaemano Cultural Preserve or those that plan to hike
the rugged shoreline.
• In the interim, the general public is currently directed to the 2 public
access parking lots located at the: (1) South Public Parking Lot#1, located
adjacent to the Hualalai Resort/Kukio Resort boundary consisting of 59
standard paved stalls and 8 gravelled stalls, and North Public Parking Lot
#2, located adjacent to the Hualalai Resort/Kona Village Resort boundary
consisting of 10 paved stalls, for a total of 77 public access stalls available
for public use.

• The Planning Department approved the Increment 1, Phase 2 subdivision
on November 22, 2006, consisting of 42 single-family residential lots.
• The Increment 1, Phase 2 subdivision improvements were completed in
2016 and construction of single-family dwellings continues and is
expected extend into the near future.
III. DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY FOR LOT 4-IB (portion of Hualalai Resort)
A. Lot 4-B Development Areas.
Lot 4-B is comprised of 15 separate development areas that currently contain 76
single-family lots, 20 multiple-family residential units, Keolu Golf Course holes
10 through 18, and 2 vacant bulk lots. (See attached "Exhibit C" - Lot 4-B Site
Plan).
The following sections will further desciibe the elements that have been
developed within Lot 4-B to date.
1. Hualalai Resort Phase 2-C Subdivision No. 1 (SUB-7835-Revised)
The Planning Department approved SUB-7835-Revised on October 19,
2004. This phase of the development within Lot 4-B consisted of 3
single-family residential lots, 2 multiple-family lots, and 7 bulk lots.
HILLC constructed the 4-unit Na Hale at Kahikole condominium project
on TMK: (3) 7-2-030:002, and the adjoining 4-unit Na Hale at Kahikole
Phase II condominium project on TMK: (3) 7-2-030:001. The subdivision
improvements for this phase were completed in 2006.
2. Hualalai Resort Phase 2-C Subdivision No, 2 (SUB-04-000219)
The Planning Department approved SUB-04-000219 on September 12,
2005. This phase of the development consisted of 19 single-family
residential lots, 1 multiple-family lot, 7 bulk lots for future single-family
lot or multiple-family residential units, and the 2 bulk lots for the back 9
golf holes of the Keolu Golf Course. HILLC constructed the 12-unit Hali'i
Pua Villas condominium project on TMK: (3) 7-2-029:028. The
subdivision improvements for this phase were completed in 2006.
3. Hualalai Resort Phase 2-C Subdivision No. 3 (SUB-05-000222) •
The Planning Department approved SUB-05-000222 on February 21,
2007. This phase of the developinent within Lot 4-B consisted of 31
single-family residential lots, together with a readjustment of the boundary
lines for 2 bulk lots for the golf course. The subdivision improvements for
this phase were completed at the end of 2007.
4. Hualalai Resort Parcel 20 Subdivision (SUB-07-000564)

The Planning Department approved SUB-07-000564 on January 9, 2014.
This phase of the development consisted of 12 single-family residential
lots, together with a readjustmei->t of the boundary lines for 2 bulk lots for
the golf course. The subdivision improvements for this phase were
completed in 2014.
5. Kulanakatchale (SUB-14-001426-Revised)
The Planning Department approved SUB-14-001426-Revised-2 on April
5, 2017. This phase of the development consisted of 11 single-family
residential lots. The subdivision improvements for this phase were
completed in 2017.
IV. DEVELOPMENT PLANS FOR LOT 4-A AND LOT 4-B BEYOND 2019
Although faced with a challenging real estate market, KD and HILLC remained steadfast
and fully committed to implementing thedevelopment plans for Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B,
respectively, and have made substantial progress towards this goal. The total development area
under PDO 99-42 is 1,078.634 acres in size with a maximum allowable density of 1,030
residential units. To date, KD and HILLC have developed approximately 582.030 acres of land
and 170 residential units within the Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B development areas. Approximately
384.094 acres within Lot 4-A7 and 217.394 acres within Lot 4-B8 have been developed,
respectively, which represents roughly 54% of the land covered by PDO 99-42. More
importantly, the Parties have completed a majority of the community benefit and public access
elements under PDO 99-42, such as the Interpretive Center with the public restrooms and public
parking stalls, which will facilitate greater public access to the shoreline, once SHPD approves
the Plan for the Kalaemano Cultural Preserve. As we discussed in Section II.A.1. above, the
Interpretive Center is currently open to lineal descendants, cultural practitioners, and educational
groups on a reservation only basis, while the SHPD review of the Plan is pending.
Concurrent with the work performed by the project archaeologist, KD has consulted with
the Kaupulehu Development Monitoring Committee ("KDMC") and the lineal descendants from
the area to develop an appropriate management plan to ensure the protection of all
archaeological, cultural and natural resources along the shoreline. KD and HILLC maintain
close contact with the lineal descendants from Kaupulehu, and this relationship was integral in
the efforts to relocate the Star Compass from within the,Hualalai Resort and to develop plans for
the new Hale Wa'a(canoe hale) adjacent to the Interpretive Center. Although PDO 99-42 allows
KD to defer opening the public access elements to the general public until the opening of the 18-
hole golf course, KD always intended to open these public access improvements to the public •
earlier. While access to these improvements is currently managed and restricted to certain users
The total acreage accounts for the development of the completed subdivision improvements, including roadways
and utilities,the Kaupulehu Beach Club, the set-asides for the Coastal Planning Areas,which includes the
Kalaemano Cultural Preserve,the Interpretive Center and the Kaupulehu private wastewater treatment plant.

that are acquainted with the sensitive nature of the Kalaemano Cultural Preserve, upon
completion of the archaeological preservation and interpretive work in the shoreline area and
upon completion of the public access items required byii the Planning Department, KD will open
the Interpretive Center to the public. KD will inform the Planning Department in writing when
this occurs.
Article XI, Section 7, of the Hawaii State Constitution provides that the State has an
obligation to protect, control, and regulate the use of Hawaii's water resources for the benefit of
its people. Article XI, Section 1, of the Hawaii State Constitution states that all public natural
resources are held in trust by the State for the benefit of,the people. A County agency's duty and
authority is to maintain the purity and flow of our waters for future generations and to assure that
the waters of our land are put to reasonable and beneficial public benefit.
The remaining development will not significantly use, nor generate significant adverse
impacts to the existing groundwater resources, and thus is consistent with the public trust in the
use of water resources. Kaupulehu draws potable water from 2 existing wells that service
Property and non-potable water is provided by an on-sie well. The potable and non-potable
wells have been in operation for many years in compliance with the applicable State Commission
on Water Resource Management ("CWRM") and DOII requirements. The appropriate potable
water units were set aside and reserved for the Kaupulehu and Hualalai since the wells were
developed, so the required water needed to develop the(Property is well within the sustainable
capacity of the existing well system, and thus use of this potable water will be for a reasonable
and beneficial public benefit. All potable1water for Kaupulehu and Hualalai is supplied by the
Kaupulehu Water Company, which is a PUC regulated utility company. •The current and future
use of potable water for the for these projects are also in compliance with all CWRM
requirements to ensure the continued sustainability of the Kiholo aquifer.
The remaining development within Lot 4-B at Hualalai Resort will be limited to 2 bulky.
lots, namely TMK: (3) 7-2-030:006 and 0099. HILLC anticipates the development of
approximately 25 more residential units within these 2 bulk lots, which would bring the total
number of residential units in Lot 4-B to 121 units.
KD intends to develop an additional 425 residential units within Lot 4-A at Kaupulehu.
When fully developed, KD anticipates completing a total of 606 residential units within Lot 4-A.
As of the date of this report, when taken together, the Parties anticipate a combined
development of approximately 707 residential units at Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B (the "Project"),
which is well below the 1,030 total residential units currently allowed under PDO 99-42.
Since the approval of PDO 99-42 in 1999, KD and HILLC have developeda substantial
portion of the land area and allowable residential units allowed by PDO 99-42 . While HILLC
f ,
Hualalai Resort Parcel 19 Subdivision(SUB-14-001449). The Planning Department issued Tentative Subdivision
Approval for SUB-14-001449 on May 1, 2015. This phase of development consists of 12 single-family residential
lots. On May 13,2016,the Planning Department approved a time extension until May 1,2020 to allow additional
time to obtain Final Subdivision Approval.

anticipates completing the remaining 25 residential units within Lot 4-B within 2 to 3 years, KD •
anticipates that under current market demand, they will,take another 20 years to develop the
balance of Lot 4-A.
V. CONDITION B OF PDO 99-42 (THE 20-YEAR DEVELOPMENT PERIOD).
After consultation with the Planning Department on this issue, the Parties desire guidance
from the Leeward Planning Commission and the County Council that the Parties need not seek a
formal time extension to the 20-year development period for the Kaupulehu Project District,
which time period will occur on April 10, 2019.
Condition B of PDO 99-42 provides that: "This project area shall be called the
Kaupulehu Project District. The development periodfar the Kaupulehu Project District will be
20 years from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance."
•
The genesis of the subject condition specifically arises from a single representation made
by KD's processor-in-interest, Kaupulehu Development within the Project District Application
dated June 22, 1998 ("PD Application").
Section 2.6 of the PD Application states:
"The Kaupulehu Resort expansion project will be a master planned and implemented by a
developer team, including the Applicant. Substantial infrastructure improvements erre
expected to be provided during the initicrl,fve years once the required governmental
approvals have been secured. Initial sales are also expected during this period. Full
buildouts of the project is expected over 20 years...The project construction costs is
expected to exceed$100-million in 1994 dollarsi" [Emphasis added]
A review of the Planning Cornmission and County Council minutes from the public
hearings on PDO 99-42, discloses that the subject 20-year development period found in
Condition B of PDO 99-42 was likely based on the representation found in Section 2.6 of the PD
Application. There is no other evidence or rationale for imposition of the 20-year development
period upon the Kaupulehu Project District.
The inclusion of the 20-year development period was likely only intended to allow the
Planning Department, the Leeward Planning Commission (fka Planning Commission) and
County Council, an opportunity to review the overall progress of the development of the -
Property after 20 years, as Condition BB of PDO 99-42'I specifically states:
"Twenty (20)years from the effective date of the'iKaupulehu Project District Ordinance,
the applicant shall submit an overall status report of the project, including the
percentage of completed development. The Planning Director shall also provide an
assessment of the development of the Project District and its compliance with conditions
of approval for transmittal to the Planning Commission for their review and
recommendation and then forwarded to the County Council for their review and action."
It is clear that if the Planning Department, the Planning Commission and County Council,
genuinely intended that the Parties apply for a formal time extension of the 20-year development
4821-7934-8826.6.060391-00002
•
June 1, 2018
Page 11
period, Condition BB of PDO 99-42, would not have been included as a condition of approval.
Rather, PDO 99-42 would have specifically required the processing of a formal time extension
request before the Planning Commission and County Council, instead of requiring the submittal
of an overall progress report for review and consideration.
PDO 99-42 also lacks the standard condition of approval afforded to all new Change of
Zone Ordinances to provide an applicant one opportunity to apply for an initial administrative
time extension by the Planning Director, in the event that non-performance with the stated
conditions of approval was the result of conditions that could have not been foreseen, or were
beyond the control of the applicant, and was not the result of the applicant's fault or negligence.
We surmise that this standard administrative time extension condition was not included in PDO
99-42 inadvertently, as other Project District Ordinances adopted during the same period as PDO
99-42, included such an administrative time extension condition of approval (e.g. Ord. 00-06 and
Ord. 00-07 for the Maniniowali and Hualalai projects, both adopted January 27, 2000).
On behalf of the Parties, we trust that the foregoing and the attached charts satisfy the
comprehensive reporting requirements of PDO 99-42, Condition BB. Assuming that this
comprehensive report meets with the approval of the Planning Department, Leeward Planning
Commission and the County Council, and no further action is required by the Parties, we offer
our appreciation to these bodies as KD and HILLC will continue to further develop Lot 4-A and
Lot 4-B, respectively, under PDO 99-42 in a timely fashion.
In the alternative, if the Planning Department, Leeward Planning Commission and the
County Council determine that a formal time extension to PDO'99-42, Condition B is required,
we respectfully request your favorable consideration of the following formal time extension
request.
VI. TIME EXTENSION REQUEST JUSTIFICATION, IF REQUIRED BY THE
LEEWARD PLANNING COMMISSION OR THE COUNTY COUNCIL.
As we discussed with the Planning Department on prior occasions, the Parties have has
always been fully committed to the development of Lots 4-A and Lots 4-B, in compliance with
PDO 99-42. If the Leeward•Plaruning Commission and/or the County Council ultimately
determine that the Parties should process a formal time extension to extend the 20-year
development period under PDO 99-42, to continue the remaining development within the
Property, the following will summarize our formal time extension request.
As discussed in Section IV above, to date, KD and HILLC have together developed
approximately 582.030 acres of land and 170 residential units within the Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B
development areas. Approximately 384.094 acres within Lot 4-A and 217.394 acres within Lot
4-B have been developed, respectively, which represents roughly 54% of the land covered by
PD0'99-42. More importantly, KD has completed a majority of the community benefit and
public access elements under PDO 99-42. As further evidence of the Parties' commitment to
their development of the Property, the Parties have invested millions of dollars in infrastructure
improvements, consultant fees, and labor costs toward the goal of fully developing the lands in
compliance with PDO-99-42. The Parties have diligently proceeded with development of their
respective portions of the Property based on market demand and there is no compelling reason
4821-7934-8826.6.060391=00002
•
June 1, 2018
Page 12
for requiring the processing of a formal time extension to the 20-year development period. The
reliance on, and substantial performance by the Parties as to the various conditions of PDO 99-
42, should weigh in favor of not requiring a formal request for an extension of the 20-year
development period of Condition B.
Nevertheless, if a formal time extension is required, the approval by Leeward Planning
Commission and County Council of the requested amendment to PDO 99-42, Condition B, for
another twenty (20) years will allow the Parties to complete the remaining development ,
activities, while also making it possible to open the Interpretive Center to the public in a timely
fashion.
If applicable, the following discussion will form the basis for the Parties' time extension
request.
As discussed in Section IV above, the Parties' non-compliance with PDO 99-42,
Condition B was the result of conditions that could not have been foreseen by the Parties and
were beyond their control. The Parties non-compliance was not the result of their fault or
negligence.
As you know, large-scale projects spanning hundreds of acres and involving the
development of a significant number of residential units and other related elements are typically
guided by an overall Master Plan, and the development of these types of projects occur over
many years and multiple phases. The full build out of Lot 4-A requires careful and thoughtful
planning, as KD evaluates the cost of providing infrastructure, the physical constraints of the
land, impacts to the environment, and the ultimately, the market conditions for new residential
product. Each of these factors are considered when a phasing plan is developed for the project
and the phasing plan is then executed in an orderly fashion.
The timing of development of each phase of the development also dictated by the length
of the initial design work, the governmental approval processes, the duration of the construction
activity, and the length of time it takes to market and sell the resulting residential product. For
example, the design work on a particular phase typically takes about 1 to 2 years complete before
a developer can submit a Subdivision Application and construction plans, and the governmental
review process can take a year or more to complete. Assuming real estate market conditions are
favorable, infrastructure construction and residential construction typically takes another 2 to 3
years to complete, and sales of any completed residential product will typically take another
couple of years.
•
After the recession of 2008, many purchasers want to see the completed product before
making a buying decision to purchase a lot, unit or dwelling. Therefore, it is typical that each
phase would take a minimum of 6 to 8 years to complete. Although some of the steps within a
phase of development are under the control of the developer, such diverse conditions as the
global economy, the local supply of labor, and ultimately real estate market conditions, directly
impact the duration of a phase until completion.
The developments of Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B were always proposed to be developed in
multiple phases. The projects have executed on its initial phases, prepared the land for additional
phases, and has seen consistent growth and investment including the development of the required
4821-7934-8826.6.060391-00002

infrastructure; roads, water supply, sewage treatment, power supply, and grading and excavation;
all of which will meet the future needs of the community.
The effective date of PDO 99-42 is April 10, 1999. Based on the reasons listed above,
the Parties respectfully request that the Leeward Planning Commission and the County Council
approve the requested amendment to Condition B of PDO 99-42, as follows (additions are
underlined; deletions are bracketed):
•
"This project area shall be called the Kaupulehu Project District. The
development period for the Kaupulehu Project District will be 20 years from the
effective date of approval of[the] this amended Project District Ordinance."
The approval of the requested amendment would not be contrary to the General Plan,
Zoning Code, or the Kona Community Development Plan ("KCDP"). The subject amendment
request is consistent with the Land Use and Economic Elements of the General Plan. The
Project increases the County's real property tax base, as well as provides numerous cumulative
positive financial impacts, including but not limited to construction jobs and related job creation
associated with the construction of the Project through the eventual full build-out, in addition to
jobs created during the subsequent operational phases associated with the remaining
development. The remaining development will also continue to support the surrounding land use
patterns and will further the necessity, convenience, and welfare of the general public, through
the creation of new real estate inventory and through the completion of the remaining public
access elements, which are pending the completion of the required archaeological clearances.
The remaining development will be supported by the necessary public facilities, infrastructure,
and services and the development would continue to proceed in a manner that complies with the •
General Plan and Zoning Code. The Planning Commission and the County Council have
• previously determined that the proposed development within the Kaupulehu Project District was
in compliance with the General Plan and Zoning Code when granting PDO 99-42.
The proposed development is consistent with the goals of the KCDP in this regard. The
KCDP focuses primarily on encouraging future urban and rural growth to occur within compact
village-style developments to avoid sprawling developments and disconnected subdivisions and
business centers. The remainder of the proposed development within Lot 4-A and Lot.4-B are
guided by Master Plans that coordinate infrastructure development, and provide for various types
of residential product, recreational amenities and commercial uses.
The approval of the requested amendment would not be contrary to the original reasons
for granting of PDO 99-42. The proposed uses would continue to be a reasonable use of lands
within the Project District. The plans for the•fiiture development of the Property have not •
significantly changed since the Planning Commission and County Council originally approved
PDO 99-42, so the requested amendment would not be contrary to the original reasons for
granting the requested amendment to PDO 99-42.
Finally, we have included with the following to complete our submittal:
1. 1 original and 20 copies of this request;

Ka'OpOlehu is one of 23 traditional ahupua'a
land divisions in the Kekaha region of Kona 'akau [North Kona].
Dryland forests, grass plains, coastal landscapes and communities comprise Kekaha, also known as Kaha—
shortened versions of the region's name, Kekaha-wai-'ole-o-na-Kona—the waterless plains of north Kona.
A saying, passed through generations, poetically describes a dynamic relationship to these lands:

HONORING THE RESOURCES OF KALAEhAANO
Kalaemano, literally, "the shark point", is the coastal section of an ancient ahupua'a that extends from the
mountain regions to the shore, and out into the seas. Ka'ulupulehu, a traditional name of this ahupua'a,
was shortened to Ka'apUlehu, Traditional accounts, historic literature and oral histories tell that the lands
of Ka'aapulehu were favored by the aii'i[chiefs] of Kekaha-wai-`ole-o-na-Kona or the waterless plains of
Kona. These lands are still held precious and sacred by many descendants and stewards. They ask all who
interact with Ka'upalehu, to kokua (help) with the perpetuation of its significance and resources.

The ocean waters of the Kekaha lands, include in part, Pu'u Wa'awa'a, KalaemanO,
and Ka'upulehu—home to many 'apelu ko'a—dedicated sites, where for generations,
•. schools of 'Opelu fish were fed and trained to frequent the area. Kupuna or elders of
Kekaha tell of this disciplined practice, tending and maintaining the ko`a. They say that
.r` the use rights of these fishing grounds were handed clown to individuals trained so their
practices would maintain abundant populations of 'Opelu while not attracting the larger

„nif aspect of their knowledge. Kupuna from this area have recorded the traditional ko'a, their

Kekaha fishermen held a wealth of knowledge beyond the ocean, it was vital to know
the elements, such as the wind and rain names of this famed landscape. They knew the

RECOMMENDATION
KD ACQUISITION, LLLP AND HUALALAI INVESTORS, LLP
(FORMERLY KAUPULEHU DEVELOPMENTS)
AMENDMENT TO PROJECT DISTRICT ORDINANCE NO. 99 42 (REZ 926)
The applicants' request is twofold: First, the applicants are requesting a determination
from the Planning Commission and County Council if a formal request for a time extension of
the 20-year development period articulated in Condition B (Development Period) is needed.
Condition B states:
"This project area shall be called the Kaupulehu Project District. The development
period for the Kaupulehu Project District will be 20 years from the effective date of
approval of the Project District Ordinance. "
Second, if the County Council determines a time extension to Condition B is needed, the
applicants are requesting a 20-year time extension to allow the completion of remaining
development activities on the subject parcels.
According to the applicants, the 20-year development period for the Kaupulehu Project
District comes from a representation made in the Project District Application in 1998 that, "Full
buildouts of the project is expected over 20 years..." The applicants believe that the inclusion of
the 20-year development period condition was likely only intended to allow the Planning
Department, Planning Commission and County Council an opportunity to review the overall
progress of project development after 20 years as required by Condition BB of Project District
Ordinance No. 99 42, which reads:
"Twenty (20)years from the effective date of the Kaupulehu Project District Ordinance,
the applicant shall submit an overall status report of the project, including the percentage of
completed development. The Planning Director shall also provide an assessment of the
development of the Project District and its compliance with conditions of approval for
transmittal to the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation and then
forwarded to the County Council for their review and action. "
The applicants believe that if the Planning Department, the Planning Commission and
County Council, intended for the applicants to apply for a formal time extension of the 20-year
-1-
development period, Condition BB of Project District Ordinance No. 99 42, would not have been
I
included as a condition of approval. Rather, the ordinance would have specifically required the
processing of a formal time extension request before the Planning Commission and County
Council, instead of requiring the submittal of an overall progress report for review and action.
Furthermore, the applicants note that Project District Ordinance No. 99 42 lacks the standard
condition of approval generally afforded to all new Change of Zone/Project District Ordinances,
which provides an applicant a one-time opportunity to apply for an administrative time extension
by the Planning Director. The applicants believe that this condition was omitted inadvertently,
citing other Project District ordinances adopted during the same time period which included this
condition. Moreover, the applicants feel that the based on the development completed to date,
there is no compelling reason for requiring the processing of a formal time extension to the
20-year development period. •
With the applicants' position in mind, Staff conducted a thorough review of the record,
including the original application, correspondences, background and recommendation reports,
meeting minutes/transcripts of both the Planning Commission and County Council hearings and
found that:
• There was no clear rationale for limiting the development period to 20 years;
• There was no definition of what would constitute a completed development nor
any guidance what to do at the end of the 20-year development period (i.e.
reversion, time extension, etc.);
• The was no apparent rationale for the requirement of an overall status report at the
20-year mark;
• There were no criteria against which the County Council should review the
Planning Director's assessment of the overall status report nor any guidance on
which actions the County Council should take.; and
• There was no justification for omitting the standard administrative time extension
condition for this project.
With the absence of clear guidance in the record, the Planning Director finds it prudent to
analyze the applicants' overall status report to determine completeness of the project within the
20-year development period and its compliance with conditions of approval as directed by the by
Condition BB of the subject Project District Ordinance. What follows is the Planning Director's
-2-
assessment of the completeness of development of the Kaupulehu Project District and a
recommendation to the Planning Commission on next steps.
Project District Ordinance 99 42 rezoned 1,078.634 acres from Open to Project District
for the development of a resort/residential community consisting of 530 single-family home and
500 low-rise, multiple-family units, 36-holes of golf, a golf clubhouse, an 11-acre neighborhood
commercial center with 45,000 square feet of leasable space, a 3-acre residents/members
recreation club and a 70-acre area for public shoreline public access facilities, other recreational
uses and cultural activities.
To date, the applicants have developed approximately 582.030 acres of land
(constituting approximately 54% of the land covered by Project District Ordinance 99 42)
including the spine infrastructure, water and wastewater systems, public access amenities and
170 residential units within the Lot 4-A (Kaupulehu) and Lot 4-B (Hualalai Resort) development
areas.
Approximately 384.094 acres within Lot 4-A have been developed, including 80 single-
family residential lots and associated subdivision improvements (roadways and utilities), the
Kaupulehu Beach Club, set-asides for the Coastal Planning Areas, which includes the
Kalaemano Cultural Preserve, the Interpretive Center and the Kaupulehu private wastewater
treatment plant. The applicants intend to develop an additional 425 single and multiple-family
residential units within Lot 4-A over the next 20 years, based on current market demand. In
addition, the applicants plan to develop an 18-hole golf course and golf clubhouse, and
commercial/retail opportunities in lot 4-A over the next 20 years.
Approximately 217.394 acres within Lot 4-B have been developed, including 76 single-
family residential lots, 3 multiple-family residential lots, and 20 multiple- family residential units
and associated subdivision improvements (roadways and utilities) in addition to the back 9 golf
holes of the Keolu Golf Course. The applicant anticipates the development of approximately 25
more residential units within Lot 4-B over the next 2 to 3 years.
Public access improvements include completion of a public access plan, installation of
public access improvements and provision of 77 public access stalls available for public use. In
addition, the applicants have constructed a 900 square-foot Interpretive Center in 2009, which is
intended to provide a place where the public could obtain educational information on the
sensitive cultural, natural, and shoreline resources found within the Kalaemano Cultural
-3-
1 1 1
Preserve. Use of the interpretive Center is currently restricted to cultural practitioners, the area's
lineal descendants, and guided tours for schools and other groups by appointment only. The
applicants plan to open the Interpretive Center to the public once State Historic Preservation
Division approves the Long-Term Preservation Plan for the Kalaemano Culture Preserve.
With respect to condition compliance, the applicants have complied with several
conditions of approval (i.e. Condition E. Coastal Planning Area, Condition L. Water Source
Identification, Condition P. Emergency Preparedness Plan, Condition Q. Solid Waste
Management Plan, Condition S. Public Access Plan, Condition T. Affordable Housing, and
Condition U. Integrated Resource Management Plan.). However, the majority of the conditions
of approval are on-going and will continue until the development is complete over the next 20
years.
Based on the preceding discussion, while the applicants have diligently developed the
project development area over the past 19 years, it is clear that there is still significant
development work required in order for the project to be deemed complete. For example, to date,
the applicants have only completed 23% of the proposed dwelling units for the project(170 of a
proposed 727 dwelling units). Additionally, the applicants' own estimates indicate that full build
out of Lot 4-A will continue through several development increments and will not be completed
for another 20 years, based on current market demand. As such, the Director recommends that
the Planning Commission and County Council grant a 20-year time extension to Condition B
(Development Period) to allow the completion of remaining development activities on the
subject parcels.
Upon careful review of the applicants' request against the guidelines for granting an
amendment to a Change of Zone, the Planning Director recommends that the Planning
Commission approve the request for a 20-year time extension to comply with Condition B
(Development Period) of Project District Ordinance No. 99 42. Since this recommendation is
made without the benefit of public testimony, the Planning Director reserves the right to modify
and/or amend this position based on additional information presented at the public hearing. This
approval recommendation is based on the following findings:
The applicant is requesting a 20-year extension of time to Condition B
(Development Period) of Project District Ordinance No. 99 42, which rezoned 1,078.634
acres from Open to Project District. Condition No. B currently states:
-4-
"This project area shall be called the Kaupulehu Project District. The
e
development period for the Kaupulehu Project District will be 20 years
from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance. "
The non-performance is the result of conditions that could not have been
foreseen or are,beyond the control of the applicant, successors or assigns, and that
are not the result of their fault or negligence. As discussed above, the applicants have
been diligently developing Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B over the last 19 years. The original
applicant anticipated a 20-year development period at the time of application, however,
given the complexity of developing such a large project and the 2008 recession, the
applicants were unable to meet that deadline. The project has seen consistent growth and
investment over the years, including the development of the required infrastructure; spine
roads, water supply, sewage treatment, power supply, and grading and excavation; all of
which will meet the future needs of the community. The majority of Lot 4-B has been
completed with the remaining dwelling units to be complete within 2 to 3 years and the
applicants estimate that future phases of Lot 4-A development will be complete over the
next 20 years, based on current market demand. The Director deems Condition BB
satisfied and therefore is recommending the removal of that condition. The applicants
will still be compelled to provide the Planning Department with an Annual Progress
Report as required in Condition AA. Moreover, the Planning Director is recommending
adding the standard time extension condition, which provides guidance on how to request
additional time, if needed.
Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the General Plan or
the Zoning Code or for the original reasons for granting the permit. The LUPAG
designation for the subject parcel is Resort Node and the Project District zoning allows
for a mixture of residential, resort, commercial and recreational uses. Moreover, the
project continues to be consistent with goals, policies and actions articulated in the Land
Use and Economic elements of the General Plan. In addition, land use policies in the
ti 2008 Kona Community Development Plan(KCDP), direct urban growth into compact,
mixed-use communities that provide a mix of uses, services and amenities in the same
development. The Kaupulehu Project District is guided by Director approved Master
Plans that are consistent with this preferred development pattern.
-5-
The original reasons for the approval of the Project District Ordinance are still
applicable, and the time extension request is not contrary to these reasons. The proposed
uses continue to be an appropriate use of lands within the Project District and the
remaining development is consistent with the surrounding land use pattern. Moreover, the
infrastructures and facilities will remain privately developed and managed, so continued
development will not place undue burden on the County to provide those services. Plans
for future development of the Property have not significantly changed since the Planning
Commission and County Council originally approved the subject ordinance, so the
requested amendment would not be contrary to the original reasons for granting Project
District Ordinance 99 42.
Lastly, this approval is made with the understanding that the applicant remains
responsible for complying with all other applicable governmental requirements in
connection with the approved use, prior to its commencement or establishment upon the
subject properties. Additional governmental requirements may include the issuance of
building permits, compliance with the Fire Code, installation of improvements required
by the American with Disabilities Act(ADA), among many others. Compliance with all
applicable governmental requirements is a condition of this approval; failure to comply
with such requirements will be considered a violation that may result in enforcement
action by the Planning Department and/or the affected agencies.
Based on the preceding, the Planning Director recommends that a favorable
recommendation be forwarded to the County Council to amend Project District
Ordinance No. 99 42. In addition, the Planning Director recommends revision of some
existing conditions in the ordinance to reflect current standard language for conditions of
approval. The accompanying draft bill reflects these recommendations and changes.

UNGER: Agenda Item No. 3, Applicants KD Acquisition, LLLP and Hualalai Investors, LLP,
formerly Kaupulehu Developments,Amend REZ 926, submission of an overall status report to
the Planning Department, Planning Commission and County Council as required by Condition
BB of Project District Ordinance 99 42,which rezoned 1,078.634 acres from Open to Project
District. The applicants are requesting a determination from the Planning Commission and
County Council if a time extension to Condition B, Development Period, is needed. If it is
determined to be needed, the applicants are requesting a 20-year time extension to comply with
Condition B. The subject properties are located adjacent to the west of Kona Village Resort,
1
DRAFT
makai of Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway,between the 87 and 84 mile marker, Ka`upulehu,North
Kona, Hawai`i, collectively referred to as Lot 4-A and Lot 4-B.
KAY: Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. If I can direct your attention to the screen. The subject
property, or the subject project area, is located in the North Kona District of Hawai`i Island, and
it's identified, or known, as Ka`upulehu Project District. For your reference, Queen
Ka`ahumanu Highway is running generally east-west through the slide, and the subject project
area is outlined in red. Just for reference, you've got the Kona Village Resort located here along
the shoreline and the Hualalai Resort to the west.
So this is kind of an interesting application; it's kind of multiple parts. First, the applicant is
requesting a determination from the Planning Commission and'County Council if a formal
request for a time extension of the 20-year development period articulated in Condition B,
Development Period, is needed. That condition states, "This project area shall be called the
Ka`upulehu Project District. The development period for the Ka`upulehu Project District will be
20 years from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance." If it is
determined ultimately by the County Council that a time extension to Condition B is needed, the
applicants are requesting a 20-year time extension to allow the completion of the remaining
development activities on the subject parcels. So we didn't come to you first to try and deal with
the determination, get a determination from the Council,then have to come back for the
amendment; the applicant asked to kind of do it all in one shot. In addition to this, there was a
Condition BB of the ordinance that required an overall status report at the 20-year mark for the
Planning Director, Planning Commission and County Council to consider as well.
So the reasons for the request is the applicants believe that the 20-year development period for
the Ka`upulehu Project District comes from a representation made in the Project District
application stating, "full buildouts of the project is expected over 20 years." The applicants
believe that the 20-year development period condition was likely only added to allow the
Planning Department,Planning Commission and County Council an opportunity to review the
overall progress of the development of the project after 20 years as required by Condition BB,
which reads, "Twenty years from the effective date of the Ka`upulehu Project District
Ordinance, the applicant shall submit an overall status report of the project, including the
percentage of the completed development. The Planning Director shall also provide an
assessment of the development of the Project District and its compliance with conditions of
approval for transmittal to the Planning Commission for their review and recommendation and
then forward to the County Council for their review and action." So it's a bit of a mouthful. I
didn't add a slide here, but ultimately in 1999 the Project District Ordinance 99 42 rezoned the
1,078.634 acres from Open to Project District in order to develop a resort residential community
consisting of 530 single-family homes and 500 low-rise multiple-family units, 36 holes of golf, a
golf clubhouse, an eleven-acre neighborhood commercial center with 45,000 square feet of
leasable space, a three-acre residence/members recreation club and a 70-acre area for public
shoreline access facilities and other recreational uses and cultural activities. So that's the
development against which we are trying to determine whether or not it's been complete.
The applicants believe that if the ordinance intended for the applicants to apply for a formal time
extension, there would be no overall status report condition, but a clear directive to request a
2
DRAFT
time extension. Furthermore, the ordinance lacks the standard administrative time extension
condition. The applicants believe that this condition was omitted inadvertently, citing other
Project District Ordinances in the general time frame that were adopted, which included the
administrative time extension condition. Given the lack of clear guidance in the record on the
reasons or intentions of the Planning Department, Planning Commission and County Council
regarding what to do at the end of the 20-year period, the applicant is requesting a determination
on the need for a formal time extension.
So,just, again, the County zoning for the planning area is a Project District, which allow for a
mix of uses that I talked about before. And other zoning surrounding area is Open as indicated
in green, and then other Resort and Multiple-Family zonings are indicated in the pink, purple and
mustard colors.
The State Land Use designation for the project area is Urban as indicated in red, with the
surrounding area is Conservation.
The General Plan designation for the property is for the most part Resort Node as indicated in
purple and some Open along the shoreline and Conservation is surrounding the property as well.
Here is an aerial photograph of the subject project area. Again, we've got Queen Ka`ahumanu
Highway running generally east-west through the slide, and then you've got, generally this area
to the south is Lot 4-B, which is the Hualalai Resort, and then the lot to the north is 4-A, which is
Ka'upulehu as identified by the applicant.
Here is the applicant's site plan for 4-A. And, again, you can see some of the development has
taken place already. According to the applicant, approximately 80 single-family residential lots
and associated subdivision improvements, including roadways and utilities, the Ka`upulehu
Beach Club, set-asides for the coastal planning areas, which are kind of in this area here, as well
as the interpretive center, which is generally located here, and the Ka`upulehu private wastewater
treatment plant. The applicants intend to develop additional 425 single- and multiple-family
residential units within Lot 4-A over the next 20 years, as well as an 18-hole golf course, golf
clubhouse and commercial retail opportunities. And just for your reference,here is Lot 4-A and
Lot 4-B. It's here closer to, in this case,to the east.
Here is Lot 4-A. This is showing much more development that's already taken place. They are
indicated that approximately 76 single-family residential lots, three multiple-family residential
lots and 20 multiple-family residential units and associated subdivision improvements have
already taken place in addition to the back-nine golf holes for the Keolu Golf Course. The
applicant anticipates approximately 25 more residential units within Lot 4-B over the next two to
three years. That's in this general undeveloped area.
So, in order to determine kind of these multiple questions,the first question being whether or not
a time extension is needed, or a formal request for a time extension is needed, we took kind of a
deep dive into the record to determine if there was anything in the record form the original
rezone, any testimony or information at Planning Commission or at County Council, and here is
ultimately what we found:
3
DRAFT
There was no clear rationale for limiting the development period to 20 years; there was no
definition of what would constitute a completed development nor any guidance what to do at the
end of the 20-year development period, for instance, would they be reverted at the end of that
20-year period or a time extension be required, etcetera; there was no apparent rationale for the
requirement of an overall status report at the 20-year mark; there was no criteria against which
the County Council should review the Planning Director's assessment of the overall status report
nor any guidance on which actions the County Council should take; and finally, there was no
justification for omitting the standard administrative time extension condition for this project.
So really it's kind of a black hole of information. We couldn't find anything that, there was no
request from the applicant to have it structured this way, there was nothing at the Planning
Commission hearings where the commissioners added these conditions, and the same thing at the
County Council level. With that in mind, the Director found it difficult to kind of answer the
question as to whether or not a time extension was needed. So then what we did as required by
Condition BB is then take a look at that overall status report. And again, to date the applicants
have developed approximately 582.030 acres of land, which is approximately 54 percent of the
land covered under the Project District Ordinance. That includes spine infrastructure, water and
wastewater systems,public access amenities and about 170 residential units within Lot 4-A and
Lot 4-B development areas. However, to date the applicants have only completed about 23
percent of the now proposed dwelling units, about 170 of the proposed 727 dwelling units. And
additionally, the applicants' own estimates indicate that full buildout of Lot 4-A will continue
through several development increments and will not be completed for another 20 years, based
on current market demand.
So,because we are compelled to make a recommendation relative to Condition BB, and looking
at the information that the overall status report supplied, the Director is recommending a
favorable recommendation be sent to the County Council for a 20-year development period time
extension to Condition B, with conditions.
I—it's a lot—I'm happy to answer any questions that the Commission may have on our thought
process and anything else that I can help you with.
UNGER: Great, thank you. Commissioners, any questions?
KAY: I apologize. There are a few more things, sorry. There were a few additional, a few
additional pieces of information that came through since we sent out the background and
recommendation: On October 9`h, we received a State Department of Transportation letter
outlining some requests and requirements relative to this application, and then this morning you
should have received a response from Carlsmith Ball to DOT's comments. And then another
piece of information that we found, I mean not another piece of information,but, based on
DOT's comments, we are recommending an amendment to Condition N,which ultimately is just
addition a No. 6 to the condition and it says that"the applicant shall provide an updated Traffic
Impact Analysis Report and Traffic Signal Warrant Study if and when required by the State
Department of Transportation." That was something that came from their letter saying that they
would like an update to the TIAR and Traffic Signal Warrant Study; they didn't provide us with
any guidance on at what point that should take place. And then based on Carlsmith Ball's
4
DRAFT
response, there has been some ongoing conversation between the applicants and the district
engineer whether or not that was going to be required and what other mitigation may take place
instead of that. So that's something that is outlined in that October 17th response from Carlsmith
Ball.
And then one last thing, we found Condition W, there was just, and this is a condition for fair
share, it's the third to last page in your conditions —I'm son-y, these aren't numbered, I
apologize, but Condition W we pretty much x-ed out the entire existing condition because we've
got new language now for fair share—so this is now on the fourth line down of the new
underlined language, I'm sorry, it starts with, "The fair share contribution shall become due and
payable prior to receipt of Final Subdivision Approval." Because the Project District allows for
both single-family and multiple-family dwellings, the trigger for fair share payment for
multiple-family dwellings is Final Plan Approval and not Subdivision Approval, so we'd just
like to add the language to say, "The fair share contribution shall become due and payable prior
to receipt of," and this is what we are adding, "Final Plan Approval or Final Subdivision
Approval, whichever is applicable." So that's going to be the language we are proposing to add
to Condition W in order to just clarify the trigger point for different development for fair share
payment. And, with that, I'm happy to answer any questions the Commission may have.
UNGER: Commissioners?
VITOUSEK: Sure. I was just wondering how the fair share payments were adjusted, how it
went from what it was to what it is now.
KAY: Sure. So, fair share payment gets adjusted every year and it's tied to Honolulu Consumer
Price Index. And generally our standard condition Says three years after the date of the
ordinance it will start adjusting. So because this was, the original ordinance was granted back in
1999, we just updated to our standard condition with the new per multiple- or single-family
residential amount. And that's something that's pretty standard when we do amendments to
older Changes of Zone that have a fair share component, we generally will come and update
those.
VITOUSEK: So it's like a standard formula for calculating that.
KAY: That's correct.
VITOUSEK: Got you.
KAY: Yeah, and it's updated every year, yeah.
UNGER: So, looks like that the Condition B is really what we are focusing on and trying to
determine what exactly that means or doesn't mean.
KAY: That's correct, yeah. And that's where,we were really interested to see if there was
anything that would shed any kind of light on how to provide you with any kind of guidance on
5
DRAFT
how to make your determination, and, unfortunately, we weren't able to find anything in the
record on that first question as to whether or not a formal time extension should be required.
UNGER: Okay, and, again,just to read it, "This project area shall be called the Ka`upulehu
Project District. The development period for the Ka`uptilehu Project District will be 20 years
from the effective date of approval of the Project District Ordinance."
KAY: That is correct. That's—
UNGER: And so that's what we are trying to determine if that's indeed a 20-year time limit, do
they have to come in for another 20 years, etcetera, etcetera?
KAY: That's correct.
UNGER: Okay, well, I guess, we'll, and your opinion is yes, this does—
KAY: Our opinion is yes,based on our review of the overall development, or the overall status
report, which, again, was required under Condition BB, and, again, it compels the Director to
make a recommendation to the Planning Commission and County Council for review and
ultimately action. Again;the record didn't give us any kindof idea as to what that
recommendation looks like, but—
UNGER:
utUNGER: Okay, so this is your recommendation.
KAY: This is our recommendation is ultimately at a 20-year time extension based on our review
of where they are at in the development process.
UNGER: And just from a procedural point, is this an opportunity then for the Planning
Department to go back in, review and make changes to the conditions? Is this a legal question or
is this -? If, if, say, they did not have, say, it was agreed that they don't need a 20-year extension
and they are just coming in for an update.
KAY: So, yeah,I mean, it—
UNGER: I mean they come in for an update and we take this opportunity to, because, I mean,
and reviewing the changes, it looks like the most substantial change is the traffic analysis; I
mean, there is not a lot of changes in here other than the opportunity to update or modify the
conditions, which is probably a good thing. But, is this from, I guess, from a legal standpoint, is
this the opportunity for the Planning Department to comment and require additional changes to
the original agreement?
KAY: It could be an opportunity. We didn't see anything here that was out of the ordinary
where it would require it. So, basically, all of the proposed changes to the language that we have
are to allow for the 20-year time extension, and then just really updating older conditions so that
are bringing up the standard language that we have now.
6
DRAFT
UNGER: Okay, assuming a 20-year extension is required.
KAY: Assuming a 20—well,ultimately, they are required to comply with conditions of
approval through the end of development. And so,really they are still, they are not getting out of
anything, should the Council decide to not require a 20-year time extension; they still have to
comply with all the conditions of approval until the development is complete.
UNGER: No question. But now we are adding and changing those conditions.
KAY: Yeah, to the extent that generally we normally do that for these older Changes of Zone;
we update language to standard condition language. So there is nothing here that's really jumps
out of the ordinary that we are making a substantive change.
UNGER: Okay, and certainly the applicants can add to that as well.
KAY: Certainly, yeah.
YATES: I have a question regarding public access.
KAY: Yes.
YATES: Is there any?
KAY: So I will have the applicants address this a little bit more, but my understanding is public
access has been made available. There is the interpretive center as well. The interpretive center
and then opening up the cultural reserve area is kind of on hold right now pending State Historic
Preservation Division approval of a preservation plan. And the applicants can address kind of•
where that's at in the process.
YATES: Okay, I'll hold my question for them.
KAY: Okay, thank you.
UNGER: Commissioner Can Smith.
CARR SMITH: I was saying an opportunity for the Planning Department to create a policy or
procedure to deal with a situation like this so that we don't have to appear like we have no
history or don't know what to do with this.
KAY: I would,that is an opportunity. This is such a rare occasion, or rare situation. Like I say,
it's very strange that we didn't provide an opportunity for an administrative time extension. It's
very strange that we required a 20-year overall status report. That's not something that is usual
or normal in what we do. So, I mean,we could come up with a procedure, but I'm not sure it's
happened enough or will happen enough in the future where it's required.
CARR SMITH: I just have one more question for you.
7
DRAFT
KAY: Yes.
CARR SMITH: How has the applicant dealt with fair share to date?
KAY: I believe—I'll have the applicant address that—but they have paid fair share, I believe, up
to the level that they've developed at this point. And that's based on either prior to Final Plan
Approval or prior to Final Subdivision Approval.
CARR SMITH: Okay, thank you.
KAY: Mm-hmm.
UNGER: Thank you. Any other questions? Thank you. We'll call the applicant up at this time.
Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or affilln to tell the truth before the Planning
Commission?
APPLICANTS: I do.
UNGER: Please state your name and area of residence.
LIM: Good morning, Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission. Good to see you again. Steven
Lim from Carlsmith Ball. Our office is in Hilo and Kona.
BOND: Good morning. Thad Bond. I am representing the KD, the Lot 4-A side of the
application for, and residing in Kailua-Kona.
KNABLE: Good morning. I'm Jason Knable, work for Carlsmith Ball, and I reside in Hilo.
UNGER: Thank you.
LIM: We also have at the back of the room Mr. Jay Uyeda from Hualalai Investors, Project
Manager.
UNGER: Okay, thank you.
LIM: So, I guess going to the question raised by Christian, the applicant will be requesting that
the Planning Commission make dual recommendation so that you don't have to choose one for
the other. We think that there is, because the Planning Commission is making a recommendation
only and that the County Council is going to effectively make the final decision on how this •
comes down, we'd ask the Planning Commission issue favorable recommendations on both the
receipt of the status report for the project pursuant to Condition BB, and also make a favorable
recommendation on the proposed conditions of approval by the Planning Department, i.e. for the
20-year extension, for the updating of the impact fees, and those types of things. And I think that
way we can proceed in an expeditious fashion up to the County Council and have them make the
final decision.
8
DRAFT
UNGER: Okay, great, so that being said, have you read and reviewed and do you agree with all
the recommendations as set forth by the Planning Department and their recommendation?
LIM: That is correct and we agree with the proposed conditions by the Planning Department,
including the most recent revision on the Department of Transportation condition. Of course,
that's subject to our clients' understanding that we won't be changing other substantive
conditions of the ordinance,but we agree with the current background and recommendation.
UNGER: Okay, great, good clarity. Thank you.
LIM: Essentially, what we are, kind of at the tail end on two different projects. The Hualalai
Resort project on Lot 4-A only has another two development parts left; they are proposing
single-family dwellings for a total of about 24 more lots, 25 more lots. The Lot 4-A
development for the KD Acquisition side is more in the middle of their project, although the
spine infrastructure, you know, water, electric, wastewater plants, that's all constructed for the
project. And so these are all under substantial commencement of their projects. I think they've
been contributing a significant amount of jobs and tax revenue to the County over the past years.
And we would ask for the Commission's support of the dual recommendations that we
discussed.
The fair share question, you know,how do you make the fair share payments. When you come
in for either Lot 4-A or Lot 4-B, you come in for your proposal either for Final Subdivision
Approval for the lots or Final Plan Approval for the multi-family condo units,we will pay the
fair share assessment updated to the current date, so we've not been, you know,paying the old
rate; we've been paying the current rate as adjusted by the CPI Index. And I think that's, you
know, that's why we don't have any problem with the updating of the CPI Index on the fair share
in the current proposed bill.
With respect to the public access issues, I'll go ahead and let my planner from Carlsmith, Jason
Knable, address that issue;
KNABLE: Good morning. With regard to the public access at KD, currently, the KD project
has constructed an interpretive center that's intended to provide some educational opportunities
for those persons that want to come and visit the site and the Kalaemano preservation preserve,
which is located just makai of the interpretive center, and, and also to allow for folks to do, you
know, the typical public access down to the shoreline. I think, you know, what's important to
note is that in this area the public access, or it's actually shoreline access, it isn't traditional
access where you would find beach areas to go down and do your activities; you know, the entire
coastline is of a rocky nature, it's pretty dangerous because of the surf. So the intention of the
interpretive center was to allow for education on the cultural aspect and the rich natural and
cultural resources there, but also allow for an opportunity to educate folks on the public safety
aspect to protect folks. And, you know, the interpretive center was something that was
conceptualized amongst the lineal descendants of the area, the kupuna-s, and a lot of consultation
occurred with the,the government agencies were involved at that time. And they, I think they all
agreed, and it's also articulated in our comprehensive public access plan, that folks come to the
9
DRAFT
interpretive center to learn about the area, so we can ensure that, you know, the resources are
preserved and nobody gets in trouble by the ocean.
Currently, as we stated inside our overall status report, we are held up from opening this
interpretive center to the general public because we have a pending long-term preservation plan
being reviewed by SHPD. You know,we've, over the years we've followed up, our archeologist
has followed up with SHPD. We have gotten no response. Our office has actually followed up
about three times this year and, with no luck. KD is,you know, eager to get these improvements
open to the public because it's been completed for some time now. We actually met with the
Planning Department about 2013, and walked through the entire area. I think the Planning
Department was impressed with the level of improvements that were provided,but the full
implementation of the access to this area couldn't occur until the long-term preservation
protocols are in place and all the proper signage goes up. And so right now we are kind of stuck.
But in the interim, you know, folks want to come down to visit the shoreline, we've been
directing those folks down to the Hualalai public access areas, where there is sufficient parking,
and they can still get to, to the resources in our property by the lateral shoreline trail. I
understand that folks do that by going through Hualalai, Kona Village, crossing through our
properties, and even from the north they come through the property that way. We do allow
public access currently to the interpretive center by reservation. We call Aunty Lei who is one of
the caretakers down there, and set up an appointment, and she'll educate you on the area by
taking you on a guided tour because she knows where all the sites are. And she also brings down
a lot of school groups that come and take a look at the resources down in that area. And, of
course, you know, the area is still open for any lineal descendant that wants to come down, any
cultural practitioner that wants to take advantage of the resources, including gathering salt. So
that's how we are addressing public access.
YATES: Who would they call for that? You know, you make a reservation. You have to call
someone?
KNABLE: Yeah, you would typically contact Aunty Lei, but I, you know, I can, we can
certainly arrange for—
YATES: Kona,uh,who?
KNABLE: Yeah, this would be at the—
YATES: Hualalai?
KNABLE: —interpretive, no, this would be Ka`upulehu Development, then—
YATES: Oh—
KNABLE: —and we can, yeah.
YATES: —thank you.
10
DRAFT
LIM: The Hualalai Resort side there are north and south parking areas totaling about 77 stalls.
VITOUSEK: Thanks. Yeah, I have a couple of questions about that. Is the requirement to open
it up to public after the acceptance of the preservation plan a legal requirement or is that
something that the developer has decided to do? Is there a condition existing that says the
preservation plan must be accepted prior to opening it up to public?
KNABLE: Just one sec. If I could open up the comprehensive public access plan.
LIM: I don't think that that says particular key in the condition itself, but it has been always part
of the discussion with the cultural groups and the State Historic Preservation Division. Part of
the problem on the oceanfront area fronting the Ka`upulehu Development side is that there is a
series of conservation subzones that were enacted during the e initial approvals of the project
through the State Land Use Commission, and many of the archaeological sites and the areas
fronting the shoreline, which are pretty dangerous,were subject to these buffer agreements. And
there is also an integrated resource management plan that was agreed to by the project owners
and the community and accepted by the County as part of this. So that all ties into it. So that's
why Jason was saying it's not like your typical let's-go-to-the-sandy-beach-and-go-into-the-
water kind of a place; this is more of a pretty important cultural asset for the community. In the
original Land Use Commission proceedings, they had the area kupuna, they had,Hannah
Springer was involved, Leina`ala Lightner who is Aunty Lei that Jason is referring to, they are
all involved in the Ka`upulehu Development Monitoring Committee, which was a requirement of
the State Land Use Commission approval. So they proceeded through the initial stages of the
project,meeting with the developer, and essentially approving all of these various cultural and
access plans.
VITOUSEK: Okay. In reading this we see that the only real requirement for opening public
access is after the completion of the golf course,but I didn't see any updates on plans for the golf
course. Is there a time frame on the 18-hole golf course in the area?
LIM: No,no, and we proceeded ahead with development of the various parking lots and
interpretive center prior to the development of the golf course because we know that was
important to the community.
‘VITOUSEK: Absolutely. Would you mind giving us just a little bit more information on the
preservation plan? I see that in your application you guys submitted a copy of that, but that
didn't make its way to us, and I was just wondering if we could have a little bit of history on the
correspondence between SHPD. When was the plan originally submitted to SHPD?
KNABLE: The plan was originally submitted in late 2013. The architect, or, excuse me, the
archaeologist, at that time followed up I believe a few months later, and then it has just been
continual follow-up by the developer over the past five years, including our office. We followed
up in April and May of this year and then also earlier this month.
VITOUSEK: And who submitted it?
11
DRAFT
KNABLE: The project archaeologist was—
LIM: T.S. Dye and Colleagues.
KNABLE: Tom, yeah, Tom Dye. It was Tom Dye, and so he had made the original
submittal, he had followed up I think once or twice after that, and then after that it was just the
developer that followed up, and our office a few more times.
VITOUSEK: And has there been any correspondence back and forth relating to it?
KNABLE: We got one message acknowledging that, you know, we sent over, in April we sent
over a copy of the plan and the letter from Tom Dye, you know,responding to the latest round of
comments on the plan. And we were told that they would take a look, they weren't familiar with
the plan, they would take a look at it and get back to us.
VITOUSEK: So there has been comments that SHPD has issued on the plan?
KNABLE: This, yeah, this, as far as we are aware, the project archaeologist had responded to
the last set of comments in 2013, and provided an updated report addressing those comments—
VITOUSEK: Okay, so—
KNABLE: —so we are just waiting.
VITOUSEK: —SHPD reviewed the project in2013, they submitted comments, most likely me,
and then there was another draft that came back
KNABLE: Correct.
VITOUSEK: and has not been reviewed by SHPD.
KNABLE: Correct.
VITOUSEK: Okay. Has the County Planning Department reviewed the preservation plan?
UNGER: Christian, canY ou oh.
KAY: Yeah, not to an extreme level of detail, no. We defer to State Historic Preservation
Division on making the final determination on that. We, and I need to apologize. The applicant
did supply us with not only the preservation plan but also response from the archaeologist in
response to SHPD's first set of comments or questions, and also supplied us with a traffic impact
analysis report; for sake of saving of paper we decided not to print those fairly large documents.
I apologize. In the future, and I'm happy to email that to you, but in the future when we have
those, we'll make sure we provide them digitally at least so that you can review those.
VITOUSEK: Thank you.
12
DRAFT
KAY: Yeah.
VITOUSEK: Has the County Cultural Resources Commission reviewed the preservation plan?
KAY: At the time the preservation plan was drafted and submitted, I don't believe our Cultural
Resources Commission was seeded. So, no, they have not.
VITOUSEK: Okay,but, I mean,now we do have the Cultural Resources Commission, and,you
know, according to Hawai`i Revised Statutes 6E-42 State Historic Preservation Division is
required to have the opportunity to review and comment on mitigation plan that affects a permit,
and,ultimately, it's the County of Hawai`i, or the permitting agency, in this case the County of
Hawai`i's responsibility to make the actual determination. At this point if these guys have been
held for years and years on end, and the public is losing out of that as not being able to access the
property, at some point I would think that, because the County has this Cultural Resources
Commission in place, the County has to make its own determination as to whether or not this
preservation plan is acceptable per these permitting conditions, and review that so that the
project can have some knowledge on whether they are in compliance or not and whether these
sites are being maintained appropriately.
KAY: We can certainly follow up with the State Historic Preservation Division and see where
they are at with that. And the way that we direct, the way that we engage the Cultural Resources
Commission is at the call of the Director to have them review a project or an application or
something like that, so if it's the pleasure of the Commission to direct the Director to do that, we
can take that under consideration or we can have the Director kind of address that at this point—
VITOUSEK: Sure.
KAY: —sorry to put you on the spot.
VITOUSEK: I mean I definitely don't feel like I can direct the director to do anything, but I can
make a recommendation that,you know, something like this where there is a clear need to have
public access into that area for the community to have to be able to appreciate these resources
that are down there. And a department is not meeting its regulatory time periods. And because
of the way that the historic preservation laws are written, it is ultimately the County's
responsibility to move forward on that. And because the County has the commission, it seems
like they are adequately suited to deal with that.
YEE: More of a higher level comment would be I just met with Susan Lebo and Sean from
SHPD,probably two weeks ago, to have a very private conversation around their untimely
response to things. They certainly recently again lost their archaeologist on this side of the
island, so that hasn't helped the situation any more. But they are expecting, they were approved
for more staff. It's just trying to get the bodies into SHPD to do the work. But I also think I
have very good communication with them right now, and we can try to have them move things
up in the priority, but in a larger scheme there's just a lot of bottlenecks with SHPD, which I'm
13
DRAFT
trying to work with them to fix, not just this kind of situation but all of them. How we leverage
CRC's concern would be something we are looking into, too.
VITOUSEK: Right, I mean, for us I don't think that the County is in the place where we can
solve the State's problems for them, but the County has its own requirements under the law,
under State Historic Preservation Law, and I feel like in this particular case—
HALL: Sorry, what statute are you talking about?
VITOUSEK: Hawai`i Revised Statutes Chapter 6E-42.
HALL: Okay, thank you.
VITOUSEK: That the County can step in and complete these requirements so that this
application can proceed.
That being said, I have a couple of more questions on the preservation plan. Does this
preservation plan that's under review affect the entire project area?
LIM: It affects the KD side,KD Acquisition side. Hualalai,Resort has its own set of
archaeological reports.
VITOUSEK: Okay, so it is not just a preservation plan for the park,public access area, but for
the entire development as a whole?
KNABLE: No, the preservation, long-term preservation plan is purely for the Kalaemano
Preserve, which is the area,the cultural preserve that Christian is pointing to right there.
VITOUSEK: And is there another preservation plan that covers the development area?
KNABLE: Yes, there was one that was completed, that allowed these folks to go in and apply
for their grading permits for the development that's there.
VITOUSEK: You know, one of the potential conditions that, you know, with Chairman's
question about adding additional conditions, I have wondered about was this doesn't seem like it
has any conditions,which requires the applicant to uphold the terms of their mitigation plans.
The only historic preservation related question is to report any inadvertent discoveries. And in
the, you know, the agenda item that will be discussed later on, there is adding a condition to,
"The applicant shall comply with mitigation and preservation plans approved by the Department
of Land and Natural Resources." And, to me, something being added into their requiring the
applicant to continue to uphold their approved mitigation plans would be,would make sense to
me.
KAY: Yeah, I'm not sure if the applicant can speak to this. There is Condition U relative to, or
related to the integrated resource management plan,which was made available as an appendix to
the original ordinance, and it says, "The implementation recommendations and management
14
DRAFT
guidelines shall govern the use of the Coastal Planning Area and other resources." So, not sure if
that's something that just covers that small area or something larger.
Okay,just pointing out Condition No. 10 in the next application, the KW, which reads, "The
applicant shall comply with mitigation and preservation plans approved by the Department of
Land and Natural Resources-State Historic Preservation Division,"and that's, and then it goes
on to say, "In the unlikely event,"for inadvertent finds; but we can add that sentence as well so
that that's covered.
VITOUSEK: Sure.
KAY: And at least it's spoken to in the updated ordinance.
VITOUSEK: I would also recommend adding languageinto that indicating not only the
Depai lment of Land and Natural Resources but also by the County'Planning Department.
KAY: Okay.
DARROW: If I can just chime in on this part. The Planning Director mentioned a meeting that
we just had. One of the subjects that came up was SHPD saying, well,ultimately it's the County
to make that decision. I think all of us that were in the room were a little shocked when we heard
that. And the reason why is because we don't have the expertise that SHPD does in these types
of matters. And so, now we do, that you're mentioning we do have the Cultural Resources
Commission, we can bring this to them and ask for their comments in relation to this. But,
ultimately, you understand we, you know, this is a resource that we want to preserve, or we want
to be mitigated properly
VITOUSEK: Absolutely.
DARROW: and when it comes to the County making kind of like moving forward when we
haven't heard from these experts, we feel very weary on doing that. But again,we do have the
Cultural Resources Commission in place and we can bring it to them—
HALL: Jeff, sorry to interrupt you.
DARROW: —we are hoping that through this meeting that we had recently, that there will be a
better collaboration of responses from SHIPD. But again, that's for the future to tell. But based
on today's discussion, we definitely will bring this matter before them. Thank you.
HALL: Jeff, do we have any archaeologist on the Cultural Resources Commission?
DARROW: Currently, we have Theresa Donham who is actually a big part of the State Historic
Preservation Division.
HALL: So she's an archaeologist.
15
DRAFT
DARROW: Correct.
HALL: Okay, thank you.
KAY: Thank you.
VITOUSEK: You know, to me, going on about this, the issue here is public access, you know. I
mean, to me, I would be a lot more comfortable, if there was a much clearer path requiring
public access so that, you know, the community can get some benefit out of the area as well.
Would you guys be willing to insert additional language about requiring public access by a
certain point in here?
LIM: Lateral shoreline public access is allowed from the north and from the south. The only
thing that's missing is the driving in and parking at the interpretive center.
VITOUSEK: Sure, and that's what I would like to see because it's a long way in, and, you
know, kupuna are not able to walk that long ways in from both sides.
LIM: Well, what's happened over the past several years now is that anybody who wants to
practice cultural practices or the school groups, they've been allowed to go down and they get
toured and educated by Aunty Lei. And, you know, that's why the preservation plan is important
because we, I don't think anybody wants a group just running around down there in the cultural
preserve. So that's why it's a little bit sensitive for us.
VITOUSEK: Completely understand,I completely understand, you know, I understand the
importance of public access, I understand the risk of public access to a sensitive area, completely
get that. But we have plans in place to manage these things, you know, resource management
plans, and, you know, implementing those plans are a requirement of the,the thing I want to be
saying is I think we need to make sure that we have that condition in place so that we have the
adequate resources there to make sure that the public access doesn't impact these sites,but
allows public access to occur. And, for me, you know, the existing language where it doesn't
require public access to be released until after the golf course is built when we have no plans to
build the golf course, seems like we just, and the developers themselves saying that they would
like to open it as soon as possible, to me, it seems like it would come together nicely with, you
know,just another condition in there indicating that, you know, extensions will be granted
subject to opening public access within a certain time frame.
LIM: We don't have the authorityagree an to to changes in conditions. You know, this was
Y
mostly, at least from our point of view, a status report exercise, and if my clients were thinking
that they had to come in here and start to negotiate all the new conditions all over again, I don't
know, I don't have a, you know, client position on that right now for me today. I think that the,
you know,just the nature of the archaeological sites and the preservation plan that's been
proposed, I think for us to open it up before the buffers are established and the treatments are
approved by SHPD, is a little bit dangerous for the developer. You know, we don't have, I mean
and I'm sure the Planning Department and the Planning Commission hasn't had a clamor of
people asking to access the shoreline in that area. If you really want to go,you can go. So, you
16
DRAFT
know, I'd hate to create another process for public access when we already have the existing
condition, and the only reason why it's not being implemented at this point in time is because of
the review by a State agency.
UNGER: To clarify, all of our recommendations are just that,just recommendations. We are
not, our,Leeward Planning Commission is not making or asking for any additional requirements
at this time. It's just, we are having a discussion and, I guess, Commissioners, you can
recommend anything you want. The County Council obviously will be making the final
decision. And,hopefully, between now and then whatever does come out of this, that's the
opportunity for everybody to get involved in a discussion. So, anyways, this is a great
discussion.
LIM: For the record for the applicants, for both KD Acquisition and Hualalai Investors, we
concur with the mitigation condition that was read into the record by Christian just a little while
ago.
UNGER: Okay, and the rest of the recommendations from the Planning Department as—
LIM: That's correct.
UNGER: —okay, great, thank you.
VITOUSEK: Would it be possible for me to make a recommendation that the Cultural
Resources Commission review the archaeological preservation plan and make a recommendation
on whether the Director should accept that.
UNGER: Let's hold that thought, and the process will be to finish with the applicants, and then
we'll open it for public comment, and then we'll go ahead and ask for a motion, we'll get a
second on the motion, and that's when we can have our full discussion amongst the
Commissioners. So if there is no-more questions with the applicants, thank you, you may be
seated. If there are more comments.
LIM: No, no further comments.
UNGER: Okay, thank you. You may be seated. At this time I'd like to open it up for public
testimony, if anybody is in the audience that would like to testify. Seeing none, I motion to close
public testimony.
YATES: So move.
KEALOHA: Second.
UNGER: Motion by Commissioner Yates, second by Commissioner Kealoha. All in favor?
COMMISSIONERS: Aye.

DRAFT
UNGER: Opposed? [None.] Motion carries, public testimony is closed. I recommend we take
a five-minute break and, to consult with our corporate attorney to discuss a possible motion.
HALL: If we are going to discuss that, we have to go into executive session.
UNGER: I'd like to go, I make a motion to go into executive session to further discuss this with
our corporate counsel. I need a second.
CARR SMITH: Second.
UNGER: All in favor?
COMMISSIONERS: Aye.
UNGER: Opposed? [None.]
At 11:20 a.m. Chairman Unger called a short recess. The room was cleared, and the
Commission went into executive session at 11:25 a.m.for the purpose of consulting with its
counsel regarding questions and issues pertaining to the Commission's powers, duties,
privileges, immunities, and liabilities,pursuant to Hawai`i Revised Statutes 92-5.
At 11:42 a.m. it was moved by Commissioner Vitousek and seconded by Commissioner Kealoha
that the Commission go out of executive session. Upon a voice vote, the motion carried
unanimously. The meeting was reconvened at 11:43 a.m.
UNGER: Hearing is called to order. After executive session the Commissioners had additional
questions for the applicants. .If you don't mind, could you please come up? Thank you.
Commissioners,please feel free to ask the applicant questions.
VITOUSEK: Sure. We'"re just trying to understand. We see in your application submittal, it
says, "Although PDO 99-42 allows for KD to defer opening the public access elements to the
general public until the opening of the 18-hole golf course, KD always intended to open these
public access improvements to the public earlier." PDO 99-42, what is that?
LIM: Project District Ordinance 99-42, which is the subject of this—
VITOUSEK: So that's, it's a County, a County requirement. Okay. Thank you.
UNGER: And while we are on that subject, has there been any discussion within your group
with regards to the exact topic? It's good that it is stated in there. Has there ever even been a
discussion? It is tied to the golf course. It sounds like the golf course is maybe not even planned
in the future. It sounds like,pursuant to that sentence there,there is desire to open earlier. It's
all very general, and, obviously, the Commission is just, you know, questioning about the public
access. So has there been any discussion about opening this up earlier versus just tie it to the
opening of the golf course?
18
DRAFT
LIM: That was always the intention. The golf course is still on the table, but we recognize that
that would be pushed back to a later stage in the development pretty early on. And so that's why
the applicant took the step of trying to move forward with the improvements, and then we are
just pending the SHPD approval. So it's still their intention to voluntarily do that. And that's
why we would resist changes in the conditions or changes in the process. We think that the
process is lined up pretty clearly that we just need SHPD approval, and then once that happens,
then we are willing to follow through with our commitment to open the public access. Like I
said, the critical part is the cultural buffers, making sure that all this is managed, because people
won't be able to just drive down to the shoreline; they'll have to go and receive cultural briefings
by Aunty Lei before they even step foot on the property. Thank you.
UNGER: Great, okay, thank you.
CARR SMITH: And then to the north of the interpretive center, is there a—I know the cliff
becomes pretty high there and treacherous—so, is there a trail along the cliff going north?
LIM: Yes, there is a shoreline trail like many areas in Kona, and so people often come from
either the south or the north in through, fronting the project. We try to, we try to brief people
when they come onto the property, but it's not that often.
UNGER: Any other questions? Thank you, Applicants. Great, so, the floor is open for a
motion.
CARR SMITH: I'd like to move that a favorable recommendation be forwarded to the County
Council to accept the Project District Ordinance No. 99 42's updated status report.
KALOHA: I'll second.
UNGER: We have a motion by Commissioner Can Smith, second by Commissioner Kealoha.
Roll call, or discussion, sorry. In executive session the Commission decided to clarify two parts:
To approve the update, which was presented by the applicants, and so that's the motion that's on
the table now; then the second motion will be to talk about the extension and conditions
associated to those extension. So, first order of business.
KAY: Okay, thank you, Mr. Chair. Just a
UNGER: Hold on one second. Commissioner Can Smith, are you-? Okay. Yeah, roll call.
KAY: My apologies. Just so we are accepting the overall status report as required by Condition
BB.
UNGER: Correct.
KAY: Okay. Oka thank you. Commissioner Can Smith?

CARR SMITH: Aye.

KAY: Commissioner Kealoha?
KEALOHA: Aye.
KAY: Commissioner Vitousek?
VITOUSEK: Aye.
KAY: Commissioner Yates?
YATES: Aye.
KAY: And Chair Unger?
UNGER: Aye.
KAY: Thank you. Mr. Chair,motion carries, five-nothing.
UNGER: So, again, we'd like to open the floor to the second motion to the same agenda item in
regards to the extension request, or discussion,and conditions associated with the development.
VITOUSEK: So, I move that a favorable recommendation be forwarded to the County Council
on the request to amend Project District Ordinance 99 42, based on the Planning Director's
recommendation, findings, and proposed amended conditions,which shall be adopted; the
amended conditions include the updated language on the preservation plan and mitigation plan
being upheld that was read in by the County Planning staff; and we'd also like to include our
recommendation to the Planning Depaituient and to the County Council that the public access
conditions be evaluated so that they are not tied to the completion of the golf course but to a
more publicly beneficial and mutually beneficial time period.
YATES: I second the motion.
UNGER: Motion by Commissioner Vitousek, second by Commissioner Yates. The floor is
open for discussion. Hearing no further discussion, roll call.
KAY: Mr. Chair, if I may
UNGER: Oh,yes.
KAY: I'd just like to clarify. The question is to "more mutually publicly beneficial
timeline"; it is kind of vague, and I'm not sure if that was on purpose or—
VITOUSEK: It is—
KAY: Okay.
20
DRAFT
VITOUSEK: —I mean we,we feel like we don't have enough information now to determine
what appropriate timeline to open for public access is. We believe that the Department should
work with the applicant to figure out what's an appropriate time frame to open this for public
access so that it's not tied to the golf course, which is far down the road. You know, we think
they are already taking steps to open it up for the public. We just want to have that evaluated
and clarified, and that's our recommendation to the Council.
KAY: Okay.
UNGER: Roll call.
KAY: Okay, thank you, Mr. Chair. Commissioner Vitousek?
VITOUSEK: Aye.
KAY: Commissioner Yates?
YATES: Aye.
KAY: Commissioner Can Smith?
CARR SMITH: Aye.
KAY: Commissioner Kealoha?
KEALOHA: Aye.
KAY: And Chair Unger.
UNGER: Aye.
KAY: Thank you. Mr. Chair, motion carries, five-nothing.
UNGER: Thank you,Applicant. You'll be contacted in writing by the Planning Commission of
our decision.
LIM: Thank you very much.
UNGER: Thank you.
LIM: Can I ask a point of clarification? That was,part of the conditions that were included, the
amended DOT condition if and when required by DOT?
21
DRAFT
KAY: Yeah, my understanding—and if,I don't want to put words in your month[speaking to
Commissioner Vitousek]—but my understanding was all conditions as presented either
previously in writing or on the floor today.
VITOUSEK: That's correct.
KAY: Okay.
VITOUSEK: Yes.
KAY: Thank you.
UNGER: Thank you.
