The Land Use is Urban. LUPAG shows that the area, pretty much the project area, which would be right along the coast, is in the Open with some other Resort Node being in the mauka end of the property, mauka side, Medium Density Urban,that will be the Kona Urban Core kind of up mauka of the site, mauka of Alii Drive. This is the Special Management Area, so you can see it goes all the way up to the highway, so it includes Alii Drive and all the properties surrounding. So this property is entirely within the Special Management Area. Here is an aerial photograph of the site. The red lines demarcate the parcel TMKs. I put in a yellow dashed line just to kind of show the commissioners, you know, the bounds of the project parcel. I did not outline the shoreline, so, which is kind of opens up, but just to kind of show you the boundary of this parcel and to give you an idea of what the property looks like. Take note of the beach park south of the property and the developments, you know, surrounding this area. Here is another aerial photograph. I put this in to show the commissioners all of the existing seawalls that are currently in place. So everything in yellow is an existing seawall, and the red dashed line will be the proposed wall structure, erosion control structure. So, again, all you see is the beach area that is not walled in and then the remaining property, but the rest of the surrounding shoreline is completely built up with seawalls. Here is a view north from Kona Reef area along Alii Drive,just to kind of give you an idea. View south. This is the property entrance on Kahakai Road that goes down to a shoreline access. This is the shoreline access here that the public has right to cross into the property and then access the shoreline. Here is a shot, two shots, and one, long one, on the left, the panoramic, shows the approximate location of the shoreline, certified shoreline, and then really the so-called damage that the applicant is looking to alleviate on the right-hand picture; you can see there is about 11 or 12 inches of scarp. And that is fill material that was placed during the construction of this condo, and then grass placed on top, so it's, you know, unnatural sandy cobbly fill, not deleterious in any way,just sand and rocks and gravel. Here is from Honl's Beach looking towards the project site. Take note of the CRM, existing CRM wall that runs along the property line boundary between the subject parcel and the beach park. The wall would connect into that CRM wall. Here is the certified shoreline map and then the approximate 40-foot shoreline setback. So the shoreline setback area, you can see that the setback includes the structures, both, both of the building structures, and then the certified shoreline which was certified and was accepted by the director. Here is a site plan. So I have taken everything and kind of put it into one form; the proposed CRM wall is in blue, not really scale but, you know, roughly parallel to the certified shoreline, 3 EXHIBIT A
