METZLER: That’s what I recall happening, I’m not very good on the dates. I think that what happened. I know we requested that the ordinance be rescinded. GARSON: If I may, it is September 14, 2002 when the ordinance was repealed. Mr. Metzler bought the property in about April of 2002. The request from the owner to revert the rezoning was about January. So it was during that year that Mr. Metzler purchase the property. I will say that it was a prior owner’s noncompliance with all of the prior rezoning conditions that led to that. Not anything that Mr. Metzler had done, he was just purchasing the property and they were again all the noncompliance with all of the conditions at that time. Nothing that he did. VITOUSEK: I guess this is a question for the Planning Department and kind of got an indication from the last one, but the South Kohala Community Development Plan establishes the Small Farms and Ranches Preservation Program where any lot it’s supposed to be Ag-5 is not supposed to be rezoned. And the list of few exemption criteria and this doesn’t appear meet any of those. So, why is it that we are supporting the rezone of this? KERN: I’ll take that question. As I mentioned before, when you look at the LUPAG map the Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide map that is the General Plan it shows a medium density urban and low density urban. Low density urban supports single family residential of RS-7.5 or RS-10 or RS-15, so, residential size lots. And per the General Plan when there’s a conflict between the General Plan and the CDP the General Plan is the overriding document so in this case, the low-density urban was applied to the remainder of that parcel. It can be found in the General Plan under 15-2. VITOUSEK: What is the plan as far as is there any plans indicated from County level about providing sewer in this area? KERN: I will have to defer to staff on that one. JACKSON: I’m not aware of any plans for sewer in the area Chair Vitousek. KERN: You’re mute Mike. VITOUSEK: It seems like something that we’re going to have to start thinking about because continuing growth and on individual wastewater systems doesn’t seem like the sustainable thing to do. So, hopefully we can try to get together a regional plan for sewer for Waimea. METZLER: I think everyone agrees with that. VITOUSEK: Could you please give us a quick rundown of what the proposed CC&Rs would be? For the lots in the back. METZLER: Well, Chair. As I mentioned earlier, we’re just conceptualizing those now, but they would be centered around the existing ranch style homes that are in the area. So for instance, the exteriors would probably consist of corrugated metal roofs, actual real board and baton siding and a little bit of gingerbread here and there, and some offsetting paint colors in greens and reds. 16 EXHIBIT C
