Kuakini Highway. This identifies the Special Management Area line. Across from Kaiwi Street is the entrance to the Kona Bay Estates. This morning we wereable to conduct a site inspection of the property. As you enter into the Kona Bay Estates, this is identified here in the red dot. Looking at the site plan this shows the proposed single family dwelling that is under construction, a three-story single family dwelling. It also identifies the spa and, more specifically, the swimming pool that is the object of the application this morning. The applicant Dale Laurance is requesting a shoreline setback variance to be able to allow a minimum of 5 feet within the shoreline setback area in lieu of the minimum requirement of 20 feet. Also, just for clarification, this area along the south side of the property is a 10-foot public access right-of- way, 5 feet of which is on the applicants property. And along the makai side of the property we have a rock wall 2 feet in height, 2 feet in width; and this is also for public access purposes, also located on the applicants property. ThePlanningDirectorisrecommendingthatthisrequestbedeniedbythePlanningCommission. Id like to also bring to your attention that weve received several new pieces of material from the applicant and their representative, as well as an exhibit that has been submitted by the Planning Department. Recently, the staff has learned that there was a previous shoreline setback variance that was approved in the Kona Bay Estates on parcel 42. Weve submitted the approval letter with conditions for you for your review. In lieu of this, the Planning Director still feels that this request should be denied. Wed like to make one change to the recommendation: On page 3, in the third paragraph on the third line, theres the sentence that begins The other developed lots which had received prior approval for the construction of a swimming pool were located outside of the shoreline setback area. Wed like to add in, except for one of the lots. Are there any questions? SIRACUSA:I couldnt find the exact spot where that is. SPRINGER:Its on your yellow sheet. DARROW:Sorry about that, the recommendation. SIRACUSA;Ah, okay. DARROW:These- has everybody received all the information that has been passed out? SPRINGER:Jeff, your reference to the other setback variance application is that the correspondence to Mr. Lim? rd DARROW:Correct, dated January 3 , 1995. SPRINGER:Thank you. DARROW:Thank you, Madam Chair. 2
