RABIN: Could I say something? <br /> VITOUSEK: Sure,please. Go ahead. <br /> RABIN: Yeah, I appreciate your, your question, and I just wanted to say because I've lived here <br /> 50 years, I know this neighborhood intimately that most of the land along the highway that is <br /> being used commercially here in the Honaunau, Ke`ei area, is actually zoned Agriculture. All the <br /> stores are, and as a matter of fact, right below me is Haleakala Gardens, owned by Barbara, <br /> which is also zoned Agriculture. And, you know,we, we cherish these things in our community. <br /> The problem is, with our whole County planning, where they zone places like Kona Palisades <br /> Agricultural, which means impact is tremendous cause agricultural volume--you're not allowed <br /> to rent`um, and I wonder how many rentals are in Kona Palisades. You know? Or in Kona <br /> Acres, also zoned Ag. Also, Kona Paradise south of me, is zoned Ag. There are numerous <br /> subdivisions like this. So, I think that's the real problem, is, is trying to reconcile the Kona <br /> Community Development Plan with actual zoning. <br /> CAMERO: Also, can I just say something? If Mr. Rabin was actually located within a State <br /> Land Use Urban district, he could actually come in through an administrative process that the <br /> Planning Department has and do a home occupation. His request would match that of a home <br /> occupation. However, because he's located within the State Land Use Agricultural District, <br /> within our Code and our Section 25-4-13b, he's required to come in with a Special Permit for <br /> this request. <br /> YATES: Thank you very much. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay. Is that it for you, Commissioner Yates? [Ms. Yates nods.] Okay thank you. <br /> Any other commissioners? [None.] Okay, seeing no further questions, let's entertain a motion. <br /> Commissioner Carr Smith. <br /> CARR SMITH: I move that the application for Special Permit docket number 21-000224 be <br /> approved based on the Planning Director's recommendation, which shall be adopted. <br /> VITOUSEK: Thank you. Is there a second? <br /> NEWBERG: [Raises hand.] <br /> VITOUSEK: Seconded by Vice Chair Newberg. Any discussion? [None.] Okay, seeing none, <br /> let's go to roll call. <br /> CAMERO: Thank you, Chair. With that we'll take the roll call. Commissioner Carr Smith? <br /> CARR SMITH: Aye. <br /> CAMERO: Vice Chair Newberg? <br /> NEWBERG: Aye. <br /> 4 <br /> EXHIBIT D <br />
