Good morning, commissioners, I’m going to share my screen and start the presentation. Okay, is the introduction screen visible to everybody? Alright. As stated, this is actually for two (2) applications for the applicant Kaupulehu Land LLC. It’s a State Land Use Boundary Amendment application and a Change of Zone application. This screen shows the location map. The site is outlined red, it is just to the east of Waimea on Māmalahoa Highway. The applicant’s request; the applicant is requesting a State Land Use Boundary Amendment from Agricultural to Urban for 2.653 acres of land and a Change of Zone from Agricultural-5 acres to Neighborhood Commercial-10,000 square feet or CN-10 and Single-Family Residential-10,000 square feet (RS-10) for 5.349 acres of land. If the request to land use entitlement changes are approved, the applicant proposes to subdivide the property into a total of nine (9) lots with a minimum size of 10,000 square feet each consisting of three (3) commercial lots fronting Māmalahoa Highway and six (6) residential lots for the development of single-family residences and ohana dwellings south of the commercial development. The commercial lots are anticipated to have 3 one (1) and two (2) story mixed retail and commercial office buildings, having a gross leasable floor area of approximately 18,600 square feet. The applicant would like to begin construction within six (6) months after issuance of all permit approvals. Full build out of the proposed project is anticipated to be 2025. This screen shows the County zoning map, as you can see the subject property is outlined in red, and it is currently zone A-5a. Nearby zoning there’s quite a mix of nearby zoning. There is CV which is Village Commercial on the opposite side of the highway there’s also Neighborhood Commercial as well as RS-10, which is Single-Family dwelling, Family Agricultural just to the north of that and to the west closer into Waimea town there is also Village Commercial, Neighborhood Commercial and Residential (RS-10) which is Single-Family Residential and Multi-Family Residential further to the west. The State Land Use Boundary Map shows that this site has a current mix of Urban which is pink and Agricultural designation which is green. And the General Plan designates the site as a portion of it being MDU which is Medium Density Urban and that’s the orange and the mustard color is Low Density Urban. So again, the site has a mix of the 2 designations currently and further to the east is IAL which is Important Ag Lands. Here you can see a conceptual map that was created as part of the South Kohala CDP the Community Development Plan. The larger map is a broad overview of the town of Waimea and the insert which is blown up on the right side of your screen shows the site outlined in red. Again, it has a mixed designation which you can see the green is a Small Farms and Ranches Preservation Program and the kind of yellow-beige color encompasses the town of Waimea. Here you see an aerial map oh sorry an aerial photograph of the site showing the subject property outlined in blue and Māmalahoa Highway just to the north of it. This is a master plan that was provided by the applicant for the proposed build out of the site. It shows the commercial properties to the left and the residential parcels to the right. And some site photographs show the existing conditions. These are views from Māmalahoa Highway showing the site on the upper left kind of direct on from the highway and then on the bottom right showing the site from the 2 EXHIBIT C
