Okay, Jeff, take if off. <br />DARROW: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Good afternoon, Members of the Planning <br />Commission. If I can direct your attention to the PowerPoint presentation on the board. Again, <br />as stated by the Chairman, this is a Special Permit application for Kahua Ranch Limited. Just for <br />references – sorry about the board, it is a little difficult, but – this particular line in the middle of <br />the map is the Kohala Mountain Road. This application is in the North Kohala District. The <br />actual portion of the permit site is located, identified by a blue outline. It actually encompasses a <br />small portion of a 50-acre lot as well as a portion of a larger 1,500-acre lot. This right here <br />would be the actual location of the permit site; it’s on 1.2 acres of land. So you are looking at a <br />very large piece of property with only a small project site. <br />EXHIBIT B <br />1 <br /> <br />
