DARROW:Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If I may direct your attention to the location map, the area of this application is very near our last application. If you were traveling mauka on Waikoloa Road, you would pass through the Waikoloa Village area. And just mauka of that on the southeast side, we have the area of this application, identified in this area with the zoning being Rural, correction, Residential Agricultural 1-acre identified in brown, and the Open zoning identified in green which is part of the areas that are requested for the golf course areas. The Applicant in this case, Waikoloa Development Company, is requesting a 10-year time extension to comply with Condition B of Change of Ordinance No. 95-51. Originally, Change of Zone Ordinance No. 91-60 was approved on December 27, 1990, which changed the district classification from Unplanned and Multiple-Family Residential 1,500 square feet to Residential Agricultural 1-acre and Open zoning for approximately 761 acres. This was for, to allow for the development of the Waikoloa HighlandsGolfEstatesandGolfCourseproject. InMarchof1995,theordinancewasamended.TheeffectivedateforOrdinance,Change of Ordinance No. 95-51 was approved and this allowed 5 additional years to comply with Condition B and also changed Condition C to allow for required Final Subdivision Approval for not less than 175 lots to be secured within a 5-year period. The Planning Department approved an administrative time extension for Condition B on May 9, 2000. So an administrative time extension has been granted in relation to this particular rezoning. If I may bring your, to your attention some of the added conditions to the amended ordinance. Weve added a revised Condition No. D relative to housing. Weve added a new Condition No. G which restricts the construction of second dwellings and also CPRs. New Condition H has been added, and if I may read this to you. This is relative to the Applicants coming in to change the State Land Use designation from Agricultural to Rural, basically because of the Hokulia issues that have been occurring. It says, Condition H reads, Before final subdivision approval, applicant must obtain reclassification of the RA-1a zoned area from the State Land Use Commission to the Rural district. This condition may be waived by the Planning Director, after consultation with Corporation Counsel, if an appellate judicial decision, or substantive change to Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes, clearly establishes the legality of this project in the Agricultural State Land Use district, including the residential uses of the lots. Weve also added a new Condition I which is regarding fair share contribution. And Id like to bring your attention to a change that was brought to our attention by the Applicant. The Change of Zone Ordinance No. 95-51 actually had two Condition Gs. Unfortunately, we overlooked that in revising our conditions. So what were doing is were adding condition, the second Condition G to our deletion. 2
