required by the ordinances, but ultimately did not get approved, as they were tied to infrastructure requirements that never took place. Lastly, although there has been no physical construction that's occurred on the properties, the applicant states that they've expended a considerable amount of soft funds, and these include nearly a million dollar spent for more detailed land use planning in the preparation of infrastructure construction plans for the projects. The zoning for the subject properties are as follows: For the Puaa Development parcel, it's a Neighborhood Commercial; and for the Suffolk parcel, it's Multi-Family Residential. Again, for reference, we've got Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway running north-south through the slide and Kuakini running north-south through the slide makai of the subject properties. Other zoning in the area is consistent with Residential zoning, some additional Multiple-Family Residential here to the north, the Kahakai Estates Subdivision is Single-Family Residential, and then mauka we've got the Pualani Estates Subdivision, also Single-Family Residential, with some Commercial as well in the area. The other adjacent properties makai are agriculturally zoned as well. The State Land Use Boundary designations for the subject parcels are Urban. In conjunction with the Change of Zones ordinances that were granted in 2005, the applicants secured State Land Use Boundary amendments for each of the subject parcels, as each of the parcels was under 15 acres. So the other State Land Use designations in the area are Urban to be consistent with the residential zoning, and then, that's in red, and then Agricultural in green surrounding the area. The General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map designation for the majority of the subject properties is Urban Expansion in the thatched design. There is a portion of the Puaa Development parcel that is within Low Density Urban. Medium Density Urban is here to the north, consistent with the Multiple-Family Residential zoning designation. The Kona Community Development Plan designates this area within the Kona Urban Area, which is indicated by this red line surrounding the properties, as well as the Kahului-Puapua`a Village Neighborhood Transit-Oriented Development circle is encompassing the area for both of the subject properties. Here is an aerial photograph of the subject properties. Again, Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway running generally north-south through the slide, Kuakini Highway here, and you can see the other residential subdivisions that I mentioned previously. The property is primarily vacant at this point. There have been some improvements, including a paved roadway that comes from Queen Ka`ahumanu Highway and runs the length of the properties down to Kuakini Highway that's consistent with a sewer easement as required by a subdivision, I believe. Here is the applicant's site plan. Again, this was shown, submitted to us as the Pualani Makai Master Planned Community and encompasses both properties, with the Puaa Development property here to the north—you can see the proposed area of the commercial activity, as well as some multiple-family residential designation, pardon me, developments—and then further makai, you see the 226-unit multiple-family residential development being proposed for the Suffolk property. It's showing a proposal for two accesses from the highway, one here to the 4 EXHIBIT D
