is what I am told. Its no secret that many folks are already doing business out of residence illegally. <br />(accountants, architects, acupuncturists, massage therapist hairstylist, yoga instructors, perhaps some <br />in this room etc.) Rental space for business is hard to find and costly in Puna. The PCDP supports <br />deliver of levels of service within community. <br />Part of a healthy vibrant and strong self reliant community is for people to be able to work and assist in <br />providing the level of services to their own community <br />County of Hawaii has not provided the infrastructure and level of service needed for businesses to do <br />this legally. <br />I was informed that as part of the special use permit process one is required to get a commercial <br />architect to draw up facility plans. This is because there must be the architects stamp on the plans. <br />There is no one place where the public can easily access what commercial requirements are before <br />hiring the architect . <br />Businesses must meet a strict fire code which state there must be 3000gpm of water delivered for two <br />hour as a fire code rule. <br />Where in Puna on catchment can this rule be met. It cant. This means that Puna is being <br />discriminated against in the Counties development plan. Is this an environmental justice issue? Please <br />address this question at a near future meeting. <br />Thank you for your services. <br />Sincerely, <br />Stephanie Bath <br />
