PRICE: I represent the South Kohala Traffic Safety Committee. GIFFIN: Thank you. And Sherm? WARNER: Im Sherm Warner, representing the Waimea Community Asso GIFFIN: Thank you. Mr. Price, well begin with you. PRICE: I just want to summarize some things. First of all, I wan testimony and I amended the petitions that were attached; there that support those positions and those two documents the one f key point is that the Safety Committee does not oppose the land are supportive of it. But Ordinance 2-25, which was developed in the primary element to construct a road circulation system in co the area by the applicant, Parker Ranch. In 1996, Parker Ranch, delayed the construction of the road until certain number of hou trigger before they would have to build the road. Since 1996, tw this county one is the Community Development Plan that was men other one is the concurrency ordinance. The concurrency ordinanc application once with the requirement that there be a traffic im Ranch connector road that has been built hasnt been dedicated, private citizens, or several private citizens, litigating. It wa the County. Although the traffic impact analysis report is incom Hunters letter and also Linda Copmans letter, Im not going to but the report demonstrates that by 2015 the Level of Service de unacceptable on the concurrency ordinance. And this is pointed o in the back. But when you look at it, over a half the turning mo level, to say that the County normally just ignores this. Well, ordinances that I just discussed came in. But the whole point of adequate infrastructure in a timely manner. And it is the will o Community Development Plan. Finally, the Lindsey Road-Mmalahoa Highway intersection, which was one of the intersections studied in the TIAR document, Waimea. The result is we see aggressive driving. We currently ha protect pedestrians that cross that intersection. Those pedestri their numbers will increase with the development of the school. center there that the seniors use they are at risk. This needs ordinance. Finally, the current laws need to be applied. Our com on these applications, that these laws be applied and the road b things deteriorate to Level F. Thats all I have. Thank you. GIFFIN: Thank you, Mr. Price. Commissioners, any questions? I ha to be clear, Mr. Price, what you and your group are requesting i anything else goes on, that the Ranch put up that Lindsey Road e PRICE: If they could build it tomorrow, that would be fantastic. probably take five years to get it built because it isnt even d GIFFIN: So your committee -.
