DARROW: Great. Thank you. The next applications are Michael D. Tuttle and Hale Ohia LLC. The location of these applications are in the Puna district, more specifically we’re looking in the Volcano area. This is Volcano Highway, Highway 11, running in an east-west direction. We have the Volcano Village center that’s located in this general area. The actual application is just on the south side of Volcano Highway, just before the entrance of the National Park. This used to be one property but has subsequently been subdivided, and the applicant is coming in for an amendment to the original use permit on one property and a new use permit on the newly created property. This is a little clearer picture of the location. This is the highway. There’s a little road that comes off the highway called Hale Ohia Road; and, again, we have the, this was the original property and has been subdivided. This property on the right side is for the Tuttle application which is the original use permit, and the new application will be on the left side. The yellow zoning is RS-10. This is an aerial photo that again shows Volcano Highway and the Hale Ohia Road. You can see the existing structures in this general area. We have the main residence and the new main residence on the newly created property, as well as several cottages. This is the consolidation subdivision map that gives you a clearer picture of the structures that are located on the property. As you come in off the highway on Hale Ohia Road you have the first property, which is for the Tuttle application. It has an existing residence that has four bedrooms and two cottages which make one additional bedroom in each which would be a total of six bedrooms, five for the use permit and one for the owner/operator. On the newly formed property for Hale Ohia, we have two structures. We have the main residence which has five bedrooms, and the guest residence or the cottage which has one additional bedroom. So, again, we will have six bedrooms on the property, one will be occupied by the operator of the bed and breakfast operation. Michael D. Tuttle is requesting an amendment to the existing Use Permit, Use Permit No. 165, which was originally permitted in November of 1997 to allow 5-bedroom bed and breakfasts. He’s asking to change the permit area to reduce it from 34,163 square feet to 20,802 square feet and to change the identified bedrooms that were originally permitted to the new identified bedrooms that are located on the property that, the original property. This again is a site plan for just the Tuttle application. So you have two cottages and the main residence. This is the site photos. You have Hale Ohia Road coming off Volcano Highway. This is the main residence here. This is the Ihilani Cottage and you have the Lehua Cottage. Hale Ohia LLC is requesting a use permit to allow the establishment of a 5-bedroom bed and breakfast operation. It will consist of four bedrooms in the Ohia Cottage and one bedroom in the detached cottage which is identified as Cottage No. 44. This is the Hale Ohia Cottage which has five bedrooms; and this is the Cottage No. 44 that has one bedroom. The Planning Department’s recommendation is approval for the amendment request, as well as approval for the new use permit for Hale Ohia LLC. Are there any questions? 2 EXHIBIT D
