2. The Kailua Village Design Commission will review a draft letter to the Director of Public Works (DPW) expressing the following; 1) the need for clarification on consistency in the interpretation of the sign area measurements per Chapter 3, Section 3-58, Sign Area/size and lettering size, for sign permit applications for various types of signs, forwarded to the KVDC for review and recommendations, and; 2) request that a representative of the DPW-Building Division attend the Commission meetings for DPW-related issues and/or applications. Commissioner Hetherington had provided staff with a draft letter earlier, which had been distributed to the Commissioners as part of the meeting materials. Commissioner Kern thanked Commissioner Hetherington for drafting the letter, and suggested some editorial changes. Chairman Roth recommended to include a diagram showing the two methods of sign area calculation that had been used, in order to better demonstrate the need for clarification. Commissioner Hetherington agreed and offered to provide an illustration. It was moved by Commissioner Kern and seconded by Commissioner Werchick that the Commission adopt Commissioner Hetherington's draft letter, with minor editorial changes and addition of a diagram illustrating sign area calculation methods. There being no further discussion on the motion, a roll call vote was taken and the motion carried with seven ayes (Kern, Werchick, Ching, Crusat, Hetherington, Ikeuchi and Sullenberger), no noes and one absent and excused (Smith).
