here. The subject property is located about approximately half a block in on Orchidland Drive, indicated by this blue circle here. For your added information, there was a special permit for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which is adjacent towards the road of the subject property. This red circle is the current Woods application for the Orchidland Trade Center, also coming in for an amendment. Moving on to the site plan, the subject property is outlined in blue. Current improvements include the Wiki Wiki Mart in red, gas station in orange, water tanks in green. This property further in adjacent to the subject property has been cleared, but that cleared area does not belong to the Applicants. For your information, I have the following chronology. The original permit was approved on December 19, 1984, to allow for the construction of a neighborhood convenience store including gas pumps and related uses. Effective August 8, 1990, the special permit was amended to allow the addition of a general store, laundromat, postal service, fast food operation, video rental and arcade stores, real estate office, and a neighborhood convenience center office. Two administrative time extensions were granted, one in 1992 and the other in 1995. Effective December 16, 1997, the special permit was amended to allow for a five-year time extension to complete construction, or by December 16, 2002. This amendment request is for an additional five years to complete construction. As indicated by the site plan, improvements includes the Wiki Wiki Mart, the gas station, two water tanks, and the paved parking area. The proposed buildings, A, B, as well as the fast food structures, were not constructed. Those were on the original plans. The owner was currently working with an architect, but was not able to complete construction by December 16, 2002; therefore, the request for a five-year time extension.
