lights on the shoreline and ocean waters by prohibiting the positioning of artificial lights in a manner causing direct illumination of the shoreline and ocean waters. This amendment is mandated by Act 224, Session Law of Hawaii 2005. WATANABE: If there are no objections, I think it might be more efficient to address the first three agenda items, which would be Kohala LLC ( REZ 866) which is an amendment to Condition C and it’s a Change of Zone Ordinance, as well as Kohala LLC (SMA 379) and the Planning Director initiated revocation of SMA Use Permit No. 379. We’ve consolidated these in the past and this is, I think, maybe the fifth time we’ve been addressing this. So I would guess that there would be no objections to consolidating these once again. Are there any objections? Yes? SIRACUSA: I just want to clarify that that’s for purposes of discussion. When it comes to taking the votes, we will vote on them separately. Is that -? WATANABE: Yes, yes. SIRACUSA: Okay. WATANABE: Yes. And at the last meeting that we had that addressed this, I did relinquish the Chair because I did have some material to present. As I indicated earlier, this is about the fifth time. I’m not planning to introduce any new material. And you know, technically, the hearing is closed. So – and based on the past voting records it would not appear that we have the votes either way to carry this either way – so unless there are any objections, I wasn’t really planning to relinquish the Chair today. I would welcome your comments. Yes, Ms. Siracusa. SIRACUSA: I would be quite happy if you retain the Chair today. WATANABE: Okay, okay. No objections to that? Okay. Because, like I said, I don’t think -, you know, the positions have been well stated already, I don’t think we are going to elaborate much on that. With that, we have some additional material that we just received this morning from Mr. Lim. And I believe -. Oh, excuse me. I skipped you, yeah, Mr. Darrow? DARROW: No problem. WATANABE: It’s all yours. DARROW: This will just be a brief summary again of the application. This is a continued hearing for these items on the agenda, Items 1, 2 and 3. At our last hearing on March th 20 in West Hawaii, we did have a motion that was made; the motion was to send a favorable recommendation to the County Council for the Change of Zone Ordinance 97-102 with the applicant’s proposed, or adopting the applicant’s proposed amended conditions. The motion did not pass, four to three, four ayes and three noes. So from there all items were continued to the next West Hawaii meeting. EXHIBIT A 2
