ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS None. ANNOUNCEMENTS Next meeting tentatively scheduled for May 21,2019. Ms. Bugado announced that the Commission would meet on May 21, 2019, as scheduled. Commissioner Hetherington informed the Commission that Planet Fitness had taken down its unpermitted signs. Commissioner Smith, followed by the other Commissioners, thanked Mr. Neal Tanaka for issuing an electrical citation to Planet Fitness, encouraging its immediate response, and also for participating in the Commission meetings. Ms. Bugado mentioned that Planet Fitness was working with the Department of Public Works on an application for a compliant sign, which would be submitted to the Commission for review. Chairman Roth questioned if the Commission was responsible for reviewing outdoor furniture. Ms. Bugado responded that outdoor furniture was subject to the Commission review, if it was to be permanently placed. In response to Commissioner Smith's follow-up question, Ms. Bugado clarified that even if the furniture was movable, if it was considered a permanent feature of the business operation, it had to be reviewed by the Commission; for example, the Commission had reviewed the outdoor furniture for the Huggo's On The Rocks restaurant, even though it was put up and taken down daily. Commissioner Smith said that that guideline should be clear to the applicant [referring to Niumalu MarketPlace]. Ms. Bugado said that it had been communicated to them earlier, that in fact the applicant had mentioned her intent to come back later with a furniture plan during her prior presentation, and that the developer had to proceed quickly in order to get the anchor tenant to open for business as soon as possible, thus the piecemeal applications for the project. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, Chairman Roth adjourned the meeting at 6:01 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Noriko Sauer, Secretary ATTEST: Shaun Roth, Chairman Kailua Village Design Commission 5
