you this morning is the proper recommendation report that the Director has accepted and is forwarding to you for your consideration. Now if I can direct your attention to that recommendation report of the latest version, the differences between the initial report that we erroneously gave to you and this version is primarily concentrated to Conditions F as in Frank, G as in Gary and H as in Harold on page 2 of the conditions of approval. And IÓll briefly go over them. Condition F as in Frank basically covers a condition that emphasizes the preservation of archeological sites found on the property, more specifically are the sites that contain burials, and the proper easement for this preservation is executed. Condition G as in Gary would require the Applicant to provide a left-turn lane at the project site entrance on Hualalai Road. That would facilitate l heading southbound into the property. I should note that the ApplicantÓs Traffic Impact Analysis Report did not recommend any mitigating efforts. The Director feels otherwise; and that is why heÓs recommending this condition. Condition H as in Harold basically states that the ApplicantÓs current concept of an independent living residential community is based, the traffic modeling was based on traffic volumes consisting of the Hualalai Elderly Facility. Are you familiar with that? The Hualalai Elderly Complex, I think, itÓs located right in this vicinity here, just sort of like makai of The Pines. And with that said, the traffic report, based on that methodology, said that no improvements were recommended. The Director is providing Condition H to basically say that they will develop the project site within three years; or if they change from this concept of an independent living residential community into a regular type of condominium facility, which could demand higher traffic volumes, then we will require a revised Traffic Impact Analysis Report, meeting with the approval of the Department of Public Works. KUBOTA:Daryn, just to make clear in my mind, your explanation that you just gave, so the intent of the Applicant at this point is to set up a condo or multi- residential units for the elderly. But the condition to do the TIAR kicks in when that initial intent is changed to another purpose? Is that what youÓre saying? ARAI:That is correct. Keep in mind that what theyÓre asking for is a change of zone to a Multiple Family, so anything allowed in the Multiple Family zoned district may be permitted. The traffic report, which was based independent living facility did not recommend any additional improvements, aside from what the Director is requiring here as a left turn. So which we find, you know, we would support this request based on this concept. However, take it a step further, if there be another type of use that could generate higher levels of traffic, we will then have the 3
