traveling down the Keokeo Beach Road or the Government Road. And this map here is a little bit enlarged, showing the particular site that we’re looking at this morning. In yellow is the property owned by Flora Beamer Solomon. This property is zoned Commercial Village 10,000 square feet. All other properties surrounding it, these smaller properties are zoned Single Family Residential 15,000 square feet; and then the larger portions are zoned Ag-20. The request is to amend Special Management Area Use Permit No. 288 which was originally approved in August of 1989 for the construction of a 3-unit apartment building. They’re requesting an amendment to allow the construction of three single family dwellings, two of which will be used for a bed and breakfast operation, and one for dwelling purposes. You will have, the proposal at this time is for two 2-bedroom dwellings that will be used for the bed and breakfast operation, and one bedroom dwelling to be used for dwelling purposes. On the proposed site map, you’ll see these numbers here, this is for the parking area. In relation to this map, this would be the Government Road that’s coming from the entrance to Niulii and then travelling on to Keokea Beach. There are some access roads that surround this property, one located here and one coming around on the, I believe, that’s the east side. We have received several comment letters from the Department of Water Supply. They’ve been submitted to you this morning. Within there, there are concerns regarding water to this proposed request. There are possible options in the future to try to resolve these concerns. One is that there is only one water unit available to the property, they’re requesting three units, they’re saying there’s only one unit available. The more recent request we’ve got stated that because this is commercial zoning that there are fire flow requirements; and based on that they’re requesting a 12-inch line come in. And at this time they’re saying that that, there’s a six-inch line and there is no possibility of a 12-inch line in the area. But then, again, there are some possible options in the future to be able to see if we can resolve the fire flow requirements. We have received two petitions for standing in a contested case hearing. One is from Shirley Batad-Labisores and Randal Labisores. They are the owners of this property located here. And, also, Mr. and Mrs. Antone Cazimero, and they’re the owners of this property here. Both are within the 300-square foot area and do border the subject property. Are there any questions? GALDONES:Commissioner Springer. SPRINGER:Jeff, can you refresh my memory about the difference between a bed ad breakfast and a vacation rental? DARROW:At this time, the Planning Department does not have a definition for a vacation rental. But, basically, it’s a dwelling that is operated as a single family dwelling and they meet the requirements of a single family dwelling. There’s one kitchen, there is one family or up to five unrelated people. In regards to long-term/short-term rentals, it’s just seen as a single family dwelling that’s being rented out on a short-term basis. 2
