The Applicants in this case, Jack and Barbara Umphrey, are requesting a Change of zone <br />from Single Family Residential - 7,500 square feet to a Village <br />square foot district. This is for a piece of property that is 25,580 square feet in size. <br />If I may direct your attention to the site map, the Applicants are proposing to use this area <br />for offices as well as mixed commercial uses. At this time ther <br />family dwelling on the property, as well as another structure/dwelling in this area. The <br />Applicants are proposing to demolish this existing structure, allow this dwelling to <br />remain, convert this existing dwelling to an office area, and create two new smaller <br />structures for mixed commercial uses. At this time they have not identified what types of <br />uses those will be. The Applicants are proposing to have 27 parking stalls on the <br />property, as well as two handicapped parking stalls. <br />This is the Mamalahoa Highway in the Honalo area running in a north-south direction. <br />The Applicants are proposing to access from Mamalahoa Highway. There is also a <br />private existing road running east-west along the south side of the property. <br />There are some concerns regarding this application. One is the waterline that runs along <br />the highway is an 8-inch waterline. The Department of Water Supply is requesting that it <br />be brought up to a 12-inch waterline to meet fire flow requirements. The other concern is <br />traffic issues, as well as sight distance requirements. <br />The ApplicantsÓ representative has requested for a continuance of this hearing. And, <br />also, one more point to add is that weÓve recently received a letter of opposition from <br />George and Elaine Hirai that has been submitted to the Commissioners.
