For Commissioner Iwashita’s information, Ms. Metler indicated on the presentation map the location of the areas involved and noted that the improvements will be located more than 100 feet away from the heiau. Commissioner Salavea questioned what weight should be given to the fact that a letter of “No effect” from the DLNR has not been received by the Planning Department for the proposed amendments. Mr. Darrow said it was up to the Commission to make this determination, noting however that in many instances DNLR does not provide comments to applications. Mr. Darrow added that the DLNR did provide a response to the original applications, which was they determined there were “no historic properties affected.” There was no one from the public wishing to testify on the application.
