This white- correction this white line here traveling in a north, south direction is Alii Drive. This thicker white line here is the King Kamehameha III Road that is traveling in a mauka-makai direction. This wide white line running in a north-south direction parallel with Alii Drive is the Alii Highway. The application location is at the corner of King Kamehameha III Road and the Alii Highway on the southeast side of the road. It is identified here on the blue dot. Previously special th management area use permit number 286 in August 8 1989 to allow for a 280, 276 unit residential condominium unit project and related improvements oriented toward a retirement community that was to be constructed in phases. In 1991 they received an administrative time extension to comply with condition number 2 which was the timeframe to secure final plan approval. The time had lapsed over a 10 year period and the applicants had- we now have new applicants for this application and they had requested an amendment to special management area 286 and it done- had brought down the number of units from 232 for phase 2 to 168 units. Phase 1 was- was set apart from phase 2 and was given its own restrictions and conditions for the special management area permit. They also requested time extension for condition number 2 and 3. We are here today to request a time extension for condition number 2 to be able to secure final approval for phase 2 for special management area use permit number 286. If I can bring your attention to a revised condition number 5, basically reflecting the comments that the Planning Department has received from the Department of Public Works. The Planning Department has not received any letters of opposition or support for this application. The Planning Director is recommending that this application be approved by the Planning Commission. Are there any questions? GALDONES:Commissioners any questions of Jeff? Seeing none. May we have the applicant or its representative please step forward.

Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth on this matter now before the Hawaii County Planning Commission? LIM:I do. CHUN:I do. 2
