VITOUSEK: Mahalo. Have you received the background—oh sorry, would you please state <br /> your name and the town that you live in? <br /> PIPAN: John Pipan, Honoka`a. Aaron, go ahead. <br /> KAHANANUL Aaron Kahananui, Kalaoa, `O`oma. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay, mahalo. Have you received the background and recommendation reports <br /> from the Planning Department? <br /> PIPAN: We have. We've reviewed the conditions proposed and suggested revisions, which <br /> Mr. Kay went over just previously. So we are in agreement with all of those revisions, along <br /> with the untouched original conditions. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay,please go ahead with your presentation. <br /> PIPAN: Thank you. Chair Vitousek, Planning Commissioners, Happy New Year. Glad to see <br /> your agendas abbreviated today unlike recent past meetings; they've been pretty robust. So I'll <br /> keep our remarks short. The facts of the applications were covered well by Mr. Kay. We <br /> appreciate the hard work of the Planning Department and the deputy director's favorable <br /> recommendation on these applications. <br /> Basically, what we are dealing with here is bringing the land use designations in line with the use <br /> of the property. This proposed action, the rezoning, the State Land Use Boundary Amendment, <br /> would allow the Kahananuis to separate ownership of the two homes; Mr. Kahananui's niece and <br /> nephew live in the neighboring home on makai side, he lives on the mauka side. You know, <br /> good fences make good neighbors and all of that, and people would like to manage their lots <br /> independently, and he could speak more to that if you'd like. But I feel like the potential adverse <br /> impacts of this project are minimal or non-existent, and this one should be fairly straightforward; <br /> however, we are certainly ready to answer any and all of your questions and have any discussion <br /> you might like. Thank you. <br /> VITOUSEK: Mr. Kahananui, is there anything that you would add? <br /> KAHANANUL No, John basically said everything. Yeah, you know, I just want my niece and <br /> nephew to do what they want to do with their property and, you know, be independent of my, of <br /> the mauka property so they can do whatever they need to do. Thank you very much, and that's <br /> all I have to say. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay, thank you. Commissioners, are there any questions for the Planning <br /> Department or for the applicant? <br /> PAISHON-DUARTE: Yes, Mr. Chair, I have a question. <br /> VITOUSEK: Commissioner Paishon-Duarte, go ahead. <br /> 5 <br /> EXHIBIT A <br />
