So here is just a floor plan, first floor, kind of showing the layout, the garage, the great room, the lanai, the pool, to kind of just give you some reference. And then I added the cross section showing you the mauka views and makai views, so what you would see from the ocean and then what you would see from the road. Of course, the one on the bottom is from the ocean. I added this slide because I knew one of the issues in this area is public access. So the thick red lineapproximately, as best as I could do it on a poor map—approximates the location of that access wall. So a citizen or public can walk from one end of that subdivision unimpeded all the way across to the recreation area. On top of that the three other arrows are kind of the mauka- makai access. There are two that run through the subdivision, and they have easements and in fact have parking on the mauka end of that. At the furthest end near the project site, it's pretty open, and I'm going to show you a picture here that will kind of give you better idea. So you can see the project site outlined in red, and then the generous public access in this area with plenty of parking—you can see there's only two vehicles parked there—and numerous trails, and then one could pick up that coastal trail and walk all the way along that, along the boundary. You can also walk, there is plenty of room to walk makai of that wall; there is a significant space. So public access along the shoreline and mauka to makai access through the subdivision, are provided and are existent. Here is a view of the project parcel from the access road looking makai towards the ocean. You can see it very cleared, open, and the walls that were previously permitted and constructed and are existing. This is a view from the public access path looking mauka towards the access road and beyond, so this would be just on that, on that access wall. Here is a shot kind of looking west roughly across the project parcel, and you can take note of the wall access there, the shoreline access there. And if any of you were wondering what the Flood Zone D was, Food Zone D is actually levees, and they consider this to be a levee type of structure, so that's where the Flood Zone DI know it threw a few people off, so I just kind of wanted to touch on that. It's a very uncommon one, you don't see it very often, but FEMA has decided that this in their mind constitutes a levee. And then here is from the public access wall looking east down towards Kailua Bay to kind of give you an idea what the shoreline looks like naupaka, in this area there is very little sand, very rocky. Just a reminder why we are here. Typically, single-family residences are exempt actions in the SMA, but because of the change in law that happened under Act 16 in 2020, those single-family residences that are on a shoreline parcel now are considered development, and this, the evaluation was 1.7 million, which was above the 500,000 threshold, so in that case it became the SMA Major; if it had fallen under 500,000, it would have been an SMA Minor permit. So now 3 EXHIBIT B
