Supportive Information: The applicant has submitted the attached in support of the request(Planning Department Exhibit 1 —Application to Amend Special Management Area Use Permit No. 417 and Special Permit No. 1117 received on June 14,2022). BACKGROUND INFORMATION 6. SMA Use Permit No. 417 and Special Permit No. 1117 and Amendments: The Planning Commission approved SMA Use Permit No. 417 (SMA 417) and Special Permit No. 1117 (SPP 1117) on August 2, 2001, to allow the establishment of a 16-room Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat on approximately 5 acres of land in the Special Management Area and the State Land Use Agricultural District. Both permits were amended by the Planning Commission on January 30, 2004, to allow the use of septic tanks and soil absorption systems field in lieu of an aerobic septic system with a leach field for the retreat as was originally approved. In 2006, the applicant requested a 5- year time extension to comply with Condition No. 3 of SMA 417 and Condition No. 2 of SPP 1117, which required that the proposed retreat be established within 5 years of the effective date of the original permits. The Planning Director granted a 5-year time extension until August 2, 2011, to comply with the respective conditions. Also in 2006, the applicant submitted an application to amend both permits to allow overnight camping and related improvements on the subject property, a request that was subsequently withdrawn. Finally, the applicant submitted a status report on November 11, 2007, indicating compliance with the conditions of approval for both SMA 417 and SPP 1117 as required by conditions of the respective permits. 7. Planning Director Initiated Review: In 2008, following receipt of complaints from surrounding property owners alleging that the applicant was using Union Mill Road to provide access to the subject property despite Condition No. 6 of SPP No. 1117 which prohibited access across this roadway to the site, and that an unpermitted cesspool had -2- been constructed on the property to service an unpermitted dwelling, the Planning Director notified the applicant that they would conduct an investigation and bring the matter before the Planning Commission. As part of the investigation, the Planning Director also determined that the applicant was not in compliance with Condition No. 6 of SPP 1117, requiring Department of Transportation (DOT) approval of the access drive connection at Akoni Pule Highway. According to the Planning Director at the time, the action brought these matters before the Planning Commission for their review, not to initiate revocation of the SMA and SPP permits and recommended that the applicants come into compliance with all relevant conditions of approval. 8. Notice of Violation and Order: In 2015, following a complaint alleging that the subject property was being used for weddings and that a windmill did not comply with minimum side yard setback requirements, zoning inspectors conducted a site visit and issued a Notice of Violation and Order. The applicant provided a response stating that the subject property no longer hosted weddings or special events. County records show that the applicant submitted for a variance application in 2015, to address the setback violation for the windmill, but the variance was not approved. STATE AND COUNTY PLANS 9. State Land Use Designation: The subject property consists of lands designated Agricultural and Conservation by the State Land Use Commission, however the proposed work will be situated within the Agricultural district. 10. General Plan LUPAG Map: The subject property is designated as Important Agricultural Land and Open, however the proposed work will be situated within the area designated as Important Agricultural Land. 11. County Zoning: Agricultural-20 acres (A-20a). 12. North Kohala Community Development Plan (NKCDP): The North Kohala CDP was adopted by the Hawaii County Council by Ordinance No. 08-151 on November 5, 2008. The plan calls for: protection of scenic resources and view planes from Akoni Pule Highway towards the sea, increased public shoreline access, and support for diversified agriculture. -3- 13. Special Management Area (SMA): The project site is located within the Special Management Area; therefore, the proposed development is subject to SMA review. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA 14. Subject Property: The 5.0-acre permit area is generally rectangular in shape, slopes gently toward the ocean and has been improved with the following: • A 15,000-square foot main building with 8 guest rooms, a commercial kitchen, dining room, library and other rooms designated for seminars, exercise, yoga and related activities. • Five 400-square foot yurts with no kitchen facilities. • Three 400-square foot hales with no kitchen facilities. • A 1,400-square foot support/maintenance building. • Three 720-square foot spa buildings, including a locker/shower building, an exercise/pool building and a reception room for massage and other spa services. • A gravel parking area with 20 stalls. • Pathways providing shoreline public access. • Three acres of land dedicated to agriculture, including flower gardens, organic vegetable gardens, orchards, and gravel pathways for access. The remaining 9.5 acres of the subject property is steeper terrain with ironwood trees, pasture lands and fruit tree orchards. The shoreline property is located approximately one mile makai of Akoni Pule Highway and was formerly used for sugar cultivation. 15. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses: Surrounding land uses in the immediate vicinity consist primarily of pasture, agriculture and dwellings, with the closest dwelling located approximately 400 feet mauka of the permit area. Most surrounding lands are similarly zoned A-20a. 16. U.S.D.A. Soil Type: Soils in the project area are classified as Kohala silty clay 0 to 3 percent slopes (KhA). These soils consist of well-drained silty clays that formed in material from basic igneous rock influenced by volcanic ash. They are mostly used for sugar cane cultivation while small areas are used for pasture, orchards, and truck crops. 17. Land Study Bureau Soil Rating: Soils within the permit area are classified as "C" or "Fair" and"E" or"Very Poor" for agricultural productivity. -4- 18. Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawaii(ALISH): Prime Agricultural Lands and Other Important Agricultural Lands. 19. Coastal Hazards: The property is located within Zone"X," an area determined by FEMA to be an area outside the 500-year floodplain. The makai portion of the property is within the Tsunami Area, including the main lodge and several of the guest hales. In the case of a tsunami event, guests and staff would evacuate via Lokahi Road and Maluhia Road. 20. Flora/Fauna Resources: A botanical survey of the subject property was conducted on February 12, 2001, which confirmed the findings of a 1992 survey for the proposed Kohala Coast Trail by Winona Char. The study noted that endemic or indigenous species of plants found within the general area were situated within the Conservation District and not within the permit area. At that time, the study concluded that the establishment of the retreat center would not impact existing endemic and indigenous plants. The 5-acre permit area presently includes 3 acres of agricultural land planted with fruit trees, including mango, banana, avocado, orange, grapefruit, lemon; Hawaiian medicinal plants, including Olena, Awa, noni, ti, ginger and Lauaki; and organic vegetable gardens. The applicant reports that fauna in the permit area may include the Hawaiian Hawk and Hawaiian Owl. According to the State Department of Land and Natural Resources, Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW)the Hawaiian Hawk(`Io) Hawaiian Goose (Nene), Hawaiian Stilt, Hawaiian Coot, Hawaiian Duck, Hawaiian Hoary Bat (Ope`ape`a), and Blackburn's Sphinx Moth may occur in the project vicinity. DOFAW provided guidance on measures to avoid and minimize impacts to listed or endangered species, in addition to guidance on avoiding the spread of invasive species and pathogens. 21. Archaeological/Historical/Cultural Resources: An archeological assessment of the subject property, including the permit area, was done by Haun and Associates on February 16, 2001. The assessment concluded that no historic or prehistoric artifacts or structures were observed on the proposed building sites. Additionally, the applicant reports that no artifacts were found during the construction of existing buildings. By letter dated October 5, 2022, the Department of Land and Natural Resources—State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) indicated that the subject property was included in a -5- previous project review that resulted in a"no historic properties affected" determination and that due to the impacts on the permit area by the development of the existing retreat center, it is unlikely that any unidentified historic properties remain intact within the permit area. Finally, SHPD noted no objection to the approval of the requested permit amendment. 22. Scenic and Open Space: Akoni Pule Highway, located one mile mauka of the permit area, has existing vegetation located makai of the highway that does not allow a clear viewplane to the coastline. 23. Coastal Recreational Resources/Shoreline Public Access: The subject property is a shoreline parcel with the permit area located approximately 100 feet from the 150-foot- tall shoreline cliff. Condition No. 5 of SMA 417 required the applicants to develop a public access plan for the subject property that provides, at a minimum, a continuous traversable lateral public access along the coastal portion of the subject property, and access through Hanaula Gulch to the shoreline. Additionally, the applicants were required to allow vehicular access across the subject property and provide parking for a minimum of two vehicles for members of the public to use the shoreline access. In accordance with this condition, the applicants submitted a lateral and mauka/makai public access plan which was recorded with the Bureau of Conveyances on February 27, 2009 (Planning Department Exhibit 2—Declaration of Access and Utility Easements). The Planning Department provided a final verification of compliance with Condition No. 5 of SMA 417 on April 27, 2009 (Planning Department Exhibit 3 —Letter from the Planning Department to Ms.Jean Sunderland and Mr. Robert Watkins). The public access plan provides vehicular access to the subject property from Akoni Pule Highway, by way of access easements, and pedestrian trails provide access to the shoreline. The applicants received authorization from the owner of the access easements, Chalon International of Hawaii, Inc., on September 3, 2001 (Planning Department Exhibit 4—Letter from the Planning Department to Mr. Marc Melton). The applicant remains responsible for maintenance of the public access trails and all signs erected along or near the public access trails must be approved by the Planning Director. The applicant indicated that they -6- currently maintain the public access trails with mowing and that members of the public regularly use the trails to access the shoreline for fishing and hiking recreation. PUBLIC UTILITIES AND SERVICES 24. Access: Condition No. 6 of Special Permit No. 1117, now Condition No. 8, stated that access to the permit area from Akoni Pule Highway shall be other than Union Mill Road, rather via an access easement through either Kamehameha Park or near Union Market. The condition further required that the applicant improve the access drive, meeting with the approval of the Department of Transportation (DOT) and improve those portions of Pratt Road and the former cane haul road that provides access to the project site with a minimum 20-foot-wide compacted gravel surface,prior to the establishment of the proposed retreat. The applicant states that they have complied with this condition and the improved access drive has been designated with names, with the mauka portion named Maluhia Road and the makai portion named Lokahi Road. DOT-Highways Division reviewed the application and commented that the proposed project does not appear to significantly impact the State highway system. Additionally, DOT-Airports Division provided comments stating that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)will require the applicant to submit a Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration due to the subject property's proximity to Upolu Airport, and that the applicant and users be aware of potential noise and fumes generated by airport operations. 25. Traffic: The applicant expects there to be a minor increase in traffic on Maluhia Road and Lokahi Road, however they do not expect the traffic to affect Akoni Pule Highway given the relatively small increase in use. The Planning Department has received public comments from adjacent landowners expressing concerns about the impacts of increased use of the access roads, including exacerbation of dust issues and unsafe conditions resulting from cars speeding on the roads. The applicant has stated that they are in the process of discussing ways to mitigate traffic impacts with a surrounding property owner and hope to arrive at an agreement and implementation schedule in the near future. 26. Water: Through the original SMA and SPP permit process, the applicant proposed to store potable water in on-site water storage tanks with supplemental bottled water provided to guests. The applicant has since installed water lines to provide county water -7- to the subject property. Currently, the property is served by a 5/8-inch water meter, which is limited to one unit of water with an average daily usage of 400 gallons. The existing meter is located at the intersection of Akoni Pule Highway and Maluhia Road. According to the Department of Water Supply (DWS), the average daily water usage over the past two years is approximately 4,100 gallons per day, which is equivalent to approximately eleven units of water and exceeds the capacity of the existing meter. Additionally, DWS notes that current water availability conditions in the area can only provide one unit of water per existing lot of record, and therefore, the County's existing water system cannot support the proposed project. Extensive improvements and additions, which may include source, storage, booster pumps, transmission and distribution facilities would be required. Further, DWS requests the implementation of water conservation measures to reduce water consumption. The applicant has responded to DWS by noting that the high water usage rate was due largely to recent drought conditions requiring County water for agricultural activities. To address agricultural water needs, the applicant has installed sprinklers and drip lines, and plans to construct a non-potable well, both of which the applicant believes should reduce use of County water. Additionally, the applicant states that the new guest rooms will likely be primarily single occupancy and should not significantly increase potable water demand. According to the Department of Health (DOH), Safe Drinking Water Branch (SDWB), if there is an average of 25 or more individuals served at least 60 days per year, the facility qualifies as a public water system and must comply with Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR), Title 11, Chapter 20, "Rules Relating to Public Water Systems." 27. Wastewater: As part of the amendment approved by the Planning Commission in 2004, the applicant obtained approval to install a septic system and soil absorption fields in lieu of an aerobic septic system with leach field to service the wastewater needs of the retreat center. The facility is currently serviced by four septic tanks and the applicant proposes to install new septic tanks for the proposed guest rooms, meeting with the approval of the Department of Health (DOH). DOH has indicated that the additional individual wastewater systems could negatively impact the ocean due to proximity and soil type, however, despite attempts to follow up by the applicant, DOH has not specified a -8- preferred method of wastewater disposal. According to the applicant, they will comply with DOH requirements if the proposed septic tanks are deemed insufficient during the building permit process, including the potential installation of an anaerobic septic system. 28. Solid Waste: In accordance with Condition No. 9 of the Special Permit, the applicant submitted a solid waste management plan to the Department of Environmental Management, which was approved. The plan, which remains in place, includes composting of all green waste,paper, cardboard and food waste. 29. Other Essential Utilities and Services: There are 60 existing photovoltaic panels which produce electricity for the retreat center, in addition to storage batteries, converter panels and a back-up generator. Water is heated by solar panels and telephone service is available to the site. Police, fire, and emergency services are available nearby in Kapa`au. AGENCIES' COMMENTS 30.

The current project is fully built out with all units and auxiliary buildings completed. There are currently over 30 building permits for all structures. (Exhibit B) B. Project Concept Hawaii Island Retreat has successfully operated as a healing retreat lodge for 13 years, for groups and individual. Groups come to learn from the land and their teachers how to live a healthy life. Sustainability and connection to the land is taught with food, gardens, meditation, and other physical and spiritual wellness experience-based programs. An advanced training in sustainability is taught with participation in growing fruits and vegetables and becoming aware of the production of electricity with wind and photo voltaic panels, as well as the importance of living in harmony with the earth (aina). All water is heated with solar panels and all electricity is generated on site. There is a focus on growing much of the food we provide for guests Condition 5 of the Special Permit required the inclusion of an agricultural component. In that regard, at least three (3) of the 5-acre area is being used for the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, Ti, plumeria groves, medicinal plants, herbs and flowers. Beyond the 5+ acre area and within the 14.5-acre parcel, there are also other agricultural activities in the form of pasturage for cattle, and orchards of banana, citrus, breadfruit, and mango trees. The additional 400+/- square foot hale (Figure 3) will be situated incorporated within the existing gardens and orchards. (Figure 4) This area is currently planted with orchards of mango, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, lilikoi, ti and other 2 A Mam Area 396 � 8 1 S�STpR'Y F 396 5 �-- C 1ST S€ORY FRAME �6 71 C: J 24 f 24 17 7G 11 4� t9 i8 Building 14 https:!/gpubfc srhne;dercorp.com/A"►ication.aspx?AppIp,1p48&Layerlf)=73618&PageiypelD=4&PageID-9E78&0-96882 f 955&KeyVal,.e-;4000 Ficiure 3 N � 26 t' UN .cccr •✓ \co- / c c !r m N `l cL �� � � � � 1 � oa •c r -Ntia; �� � � `i It-.. �•�./fFj C.-�.'. ,r�� C� � ...._._ �.q Q8 rrrly // �i �l� a o \` X q / I Q rr \ 07.

The hale will be situated in a manner that does not disrupt or impact the garden and orchards. On the adjacent property owned by SunderlandNVatkins Family Trust (TMK:5-4- 009:20), there is a thriving farm growing cacao, avocado, papaya, pineapple, coconut, banana, and managed grazing for cattle, sheep, and goats. Although some of the Special Use Permit designated area is on TMK:5-4-009:20, that area is not part of the operations of the Retreat. C. Project Timetable and Cost The Applicant intends to prepare construction plans for the additional units upon approval of the requested amendment. Construction of 10 of the 20 units will commence no later than 18 months after approval, and the remaining 10 units will be added approximately five (5) to six (6) years after approval. The projected cost of the additional 20 hale is $1,800,000, IV. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS Sustainability has been a core value of the Retreat at Ahu Pohaku Ho'omaluhia. An advanced training in sustainability is taught with participation in growing fruits and vegetables and becoming aware of the production of electricity with wind and photo voltaic panels. All water is heated with solar panels and all electricity is generated on site. We do not provide air-conditioning due to pleasant Kohala winds. The Retreat was awarded the highest ranking in sustainability in the State of Hawaii A. General Description of Parcel As noted earlier, the site of the Retreat is approximately one (1) mile makai of the Akoni Pule Highway (Highway 270), at the makai end of Lokahi Road. It was formerly used for sugar cane production and cattle grazing prior to the establishment of the Retreat. At approximately the 150-foot elevation level, the site is located about 100 feet from the ocean. The average annual rainfall ranges between 30 to 40 inches. The wetter months tend to occur between October through April. The average annual temperature ranges between 72 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit, with occasional higher and lower ranges during certain periods such as summer or winter months. The typical rain pattern is sunny during the day and raining at night. The prevailing wind patterns in the area are often light and variable, dominated by trade winds (easterly) during the day and westerly or mountain winds during the evenings. The permitted five (5) acres for the Retreat is somewhat rectangular in shape. The area is relatively flat with modest slope from mauka to makai. The remaining 9.5 acres of the parcel is stepper terrain with ironwood trees, pasturage and fruit orchards. 3 B. Soils U.S.D.A. Soil Type: Soil within the project site is classified as Kohala silty clay 0-3 % slopes (KhA). These soils consist of well-drained silty clays that formed in material from basic igneous rock influenced by volcanic ash. Prior to establishing Hawaii Island Retreat, the land had been used for sugar production followed by cattle grazing with no pasture management. Upon initiating this project, land was covered with weeds and severely depleted. Lands within Hanaula Gulch are classified as Rough Broken land (RB), a miscellaneous land type used for pasture and wildlife, currently covered with ironwood trees. Land Study Bureau Soil Rating: Soil within the project site is classified as "C" or "Fair" and "E" or "Poor" for agricultural productivity. Soil within the 5 acres designated for the project has been improved with extensive mulching, soil augmentation and other organic methods. Class "E" soils are situated along and within Hanaula Gulch coinciding with the USDA Rough Broken Land soil type, Currently the sides of the gulch are covered with ironwood trees. ALISH: Prime Agricultural Lands and Other Important Agricultural Lands. The Prime Agricultural Lands mainly coincide with "C" soils. Hanaula Gulch is not classified by the ALISH maps. C. FIRM: The subject size is designated Zone "X", areas determined to be outside the 500-year flood plain on the Flood Insurance Rate Map. D. Coastal Ecosystem The Retreat is currently served by four (4) septic systems as directed by the State Department of Health. The additional hale will require additional septic systems and will be installed in accordance with the State Department of Health requirements. No wastewater will be discharged into the ocean. E. Flora and Fauna 1. Flora: A botanical survey of the project site was conducted by James Bos, Ph.D. on February 12, 2001. The study, which confirmed the findings of a 1992 survey for the proposed Kohala Coastal Train by Winona Char, noted that endemic or indigenous species of plants found within the general area were situated within the Conservation District and not within the project site. The study concluded that the proposed project will not impact those endemic and indigenous plants_ Upon beginning the project, the site consisted of pasture, and weeds formerly used for sugar cane, with groves of ironwood along the Hanaula Gulch. Owners have since planted and grow organic gardens for food production; Orchards of Mango, banana, avocados, coconut, citrus; plantings of Hawaiian medicinal plants such 4 as Olena, Awa, noni, ti leaf, ginger, Lauaki. Hawaiian medicine is woven into the guest experience. 2. Fauna: A fauna study of the project was not done. However, over 100 years of sugar cane cultivation had degraded the project area and destroyed native habitat. During the past 20 years, there has been noted a return of the Hawaiian Hawk or i'o and native owl or Pueo. F. Archaeological Resources An Archaeological assessment of the project site was done by Haun and Associates on February 16, 2001. The assessment concluded that no historic or prehistoric artifacts or structures were observed within the proposed building sites. Dr. Haun was on site for all excavation of building sites, and no artifacts were found. G. Valued Cultural Resources 1. Traditional and Customary Native Hawaiian Rights: Owners of the Retreat have lived in the community for nearly 50 years. During the past 15 years, a number of traditional Hawaiian ceremonies and customary protocols have been held on this land. There are a number of local divers, fishermen, and pickers of opihi that traverse the property to access the ocean. 2. Coastal Public Access: The subject property is a shoreline parcel. The project area is approximately 100 feet from the cliff. The required lateral and mauka/makai shoreline public access plan is in compliance with condition 5 of SMA Use Permit No. 417 as submitted. The public access trail was created and maintained on a regular basis. Public parking was created for those wishing to access the trails. These are reflected as easements and identified on the final subdivision map. (Figure 4) 3. Lincoln Burial: There is an existing burial(s) on adjacent TMK:5-4-009:20 within the State Land Use Conservation District consisting of .779 acres. There is an access easement on TMK:5-4-009:14 to the burial site. H. Volcanic, Earthquake, and Coastal Hazards The United States Geological Survey (USGS) designates the area Lava Flow Hazard Zone 9, on a scale of ascending risk 9 to 1. This is the lowest risk, as compared, for example, to the City of Hilo's Zone 3. The Building Code identifies the entire island of Hawaii in Earthquake Zone 4 and contains certain structural requirements to address the relative seismic hazards. All required structures and improvements will be designed to reflect this standard. 5 _F i � � G t`� S•o3 i y 0 4 B 1 V IN m 00 0 20 .a+ cnti O °o U to a s o a R a� / PUBLIC ACCESS EASEMENTS Pi a ~ Figure 4 Being at nearly the 150-foot elevation level and nearly 200 ft. from the shoreline, the site falls outside of the Civil Defense Tsunami Evacuation Zone. At the 150-foot elevation, normal winter storm waters are not an issue for this project. I. Water and Coastal Resources Condition Nos. 2 and 4 of the SMA Permit and Special Permit, respectively, stated that "the construction of the retreat and the operation of all of its related facilities and activities shall be conducted in a manner that is substantially representative of plans and details as contained with the Applications for Special Management Area Use Permit and Special Use Permit, Proposed Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat Dated March 2001." The Applicant represented in the original applications that it would construct an aerobic septic system with a leach field. However, an amendment to the subject permits was approved by the Planning Commission on January 30, 2004, to allow the use of septic tanks and soil absorption systems field in lieu of an aerobic septic system with leach field for the 16-room Retreat. (Exhibit C) As part of the construction of Hawai'i Island Retreat, four (4) septic systems were installed to meet the requirements of State Department of Health, Sanitation branch. J. Pasture management Upon initiating this project, land was covered with weeds and was severely depleted. Lands within Hanaula Gulch, classified as Rough Broken Land (RB), used for pasture, and wildlife, was covered with ironwood trees. USDA granted pasture management by allowing repair and replacement of fencing for pasture rotation. K. Noise, Air Quality and Dust During the construction of these additional units, there will be construction noise. Contractors will be required to comply and observe the State Department of Health's noise standards. The air quality in this area should not be materially affected by this project. The project itself should generate little air emission. L. Scenic and Visual Consideration In the Natural Beauty element of the General Plan, there are sites or areas listed as scenic resources. Although the subject site is not one of them, the Plan highlights the coastline view plane from the Akoni Pule Highway. The site is more than a mile from the Highway and thus is not visible from Akoni Pule Highway. V. REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS A. State Land Use The State Land Use designation of the subject property is Agriculture. As such, a Special Permit is required to authorize the requested and proposed expanded use. 6 As the requested area of the proposed use is less than 15 acres, a decision by the Leeward Planning Commission would be required. It should be noted that the coastal portion of the subject property is situated within the Conservation district. Over time, the Applicant has received permits from the State DLNR for repair and replacement of cattle fences. B. County General Plan The County General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide ("LUPAG") map designates most of the site Important Agricultural Land. This designation refers to land that have "better potential for sustained high agricultural yields because of soil type, climate, topography, or other factors." Because the proposed amendment will not result in the reduction of any currently cultivated land, the requested Amendment would not be inconsistent with the General Plan LUPAG designation. The request is consistent with the following goals, policies, and standards of the General Plan: Economic Element • Economic development and improvement shall be in balance with the physical and social environments • The County shall provide an economic environment which allows new, expanded, or improved economic opportunities that are compatible with the County's natural and social environment • The County shall strive for diversification of its economy by strengthening existing industries and attracting new endeavors Land Use Element • Designate and allocate land use in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with the social, cultural, and physical environments of the County • Protect and encourage the intensive utilization of the County's important agricultural lands • The County shall encourage the development and maintenance of communities meeting the needs of its residents in balance with the physical and social environment Natural Resources Element (Goals and Policies) • Protect and preserve forest, water, natural, and scientific resources and open areas. • Ensure that alterations to existing landforms and vegetation, except crops, and construction of structures cause minimum adverse effect to water resources, and 7 scenic and recreational amenities and minimum danger of floods, landslides, erosion, siltation, or failure in the event of earthquake. • The County of Hawaii should require users of natural resources to conduct their activities in a manner that avoids or minimizes adverse effects on the environment. C. North Kohala Community Development Plan ("CDP") Relative to the North Kohala CDP, Section 15.1 of the County General Plan called for the development and eventual County Council adoption of Community Development Plans. The General Plan states that the CDP "will translate the broad General Plan statements to specific actions as they apply to specific geographical areas." The General Plan also notes that should the CDP require a General Plan amendment, it could be considered concurrent with the adoption of the CDP. However, "If there is a direct conflict between the Community Development Plan and the General Plan, the General Plan shall be controlling." Pursuant to the above, the North Kohala CDP was developed and adopted by the County Council on November 5, 2008 (Ordinance No. 2008-151). This is the only significant regulatory change since the approval of the subject permits. The CDP identified four core or overarching goals — 1) Growth Management; 2) Access; 3) Affordable Housing; and 4) Infrastructure and Community Facilities. These goals were then expressed further in the form of more specific goals/objectives and strategies for their implementation. Of these, the Affordable Housing and Infrastructure goals do not apply, while the Growth Management and Access have relevance and as such are discussed herein. Growth Management Goal Under this goal, nine (9) strategies for its implementation were identified. The strategies of establishing the CDP Action Committee (Strategy 1.1); acquisition of coastal lands as open space (Strategy 1.2); downzoning State-owned lands (Strategy 1.3) do not apply Relative to Strategy 1.4 relating to the promotion and support of a community of diversified agriculture, this project fulfills that strategy. The Retreat incorporates classes and experiences with both our guests and interns to learn diversified agriculture, including flowers, fruit orchards, organic vegetable gardens, Hawaiian medicinal plants (La'au Lapa'au), and animal husbandry of cattle, goats and sheep. In so doing there is a fostering of agricultural education strategy. With the placement of the additional 20 hale within the orchards and gardens, guests will have a more comprehensive understanding of the day-to-day maintenance required of agriculture. 8 Strategies 1.5 and 1.6 talk of the importance of agricultural education program and community cultural program, respectively. As well as guests of the retreat and interns, the added accommodations will make it more feasible to support and promote sustainability and agricultural programs. Strategy 1.7 Addresses cultural and historical preservation in the community. The land of Ahu Pohaku Ho'omaluhia (Honaula Gulch) is abundant with historical sites that have been cared for, history shared, and preserved since 2001. There are old pillars still standing that supported the sugar train. There are stone structures believed to be from the time of Kamehameha E Kahi. Strategy 1.8 Importance of Agricultural lands is addressed with the on-going rebuilding of the soil that was depleted with sugar cane agriculture that used extensive herbicides and pesticides. Green waste, paper and cardboard are composted and used for mulch; animal fertilizer is added to compost; companion planting is incorporated and inoculation with beneficial bacteria was added. Strategy 1.9 talks of the need for view plane protection along the Akoni Pule Highway corridor. Hawaii Island Retreat is more than a a mile from the Highway and not seen from the Highway Coastal Access Goal A public access program was developed and implemented. (See Figure 4) The plan includes parking stalls and designation of trails, all of which were incorporated prior to issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy Permit in 2009. The trails are maintained with mowing by the Applicant. Many local fishermen and opi'hi pickers use these trails to reach the cove and ocean. Others use the trails for recreation, primarily hiking. D. Zoning The County zoning designation of the site is Agricultural (A-20a). The minimum lot size for this zoning district is twenty (20) acres. The subject property is considered non-conforming relative to area. Within the A-20a zone, the Applicant's existing uses such as the agricultural activities are permitted uses. A Special Permit was already issued for the 16-room Retreat. Its expansion would require an amendment to the Permit. It should be noted that within the County Agriculture zone, a "lodge" is considered a permitted use. The Zoning Code defines "lodge" as a "building orgroup of buildings, under single management, containing transient lodging accommodations without individual kitchen facilities, and no more than forty guest rooms or suites, and generally located in agricultural, rural, or other less populated area. 9 The Applicant's request would meet this definition of a lodge, not only in terms of its amenities but size (less than 40 guest rooms). Should the request be approved, subsequent "ministerial" or administrative type of permits such as Plan Approval, if needed, will be complied with. E. Special Management Area As the subject site falls within the Special Management Area, a SMA permit is required. A discussion of the project's relationship to the Coastal Zone Management policies is discussed below in Chapter VII. VI. INFRASTRUCTURE & OTHER LAND USE CONSIDERATIONS A. Access Access to the Retreat is from Akoni Pule Highway by way of Maluhia Road. This road was improved from an old cane road to a 20-foot wide gravel and asphalt road with approval from Department of Public Works, Engineering Division and the State Department of Transportation. The 20-foot wide asphalt road continues along old Pratt Road and onto graveled Lokahi Road to the Retreat. B. Government Services There shall not be any public service type of impacts. This area is already serviced by police and fire facilities, located within two (2) miles of the subject area. The project's location should thus not result in an extension of any of these public services. C. Socio-Economic Impacts During the past 13 years, the Retreat has hosted smaller community fundraiser events. It has a full-time staff of seven (7) and three (3) part-time staff. There are also organic agriculture interns working on property. These additional units will generate at least an additional four (4) or five (5) housekeeping staff. D. Agricultural Impact As previously mentioned under "Project Concept"the Special Use permit requires Inclusion of Agriculture. There is now 3+ acres of the designated retreat area for growing fruits, vegetables, Ti, plumeria groves, medicine plants, herbs and flowers. Within the 14.5 acres of TMK:5-4-09:14 there is also agriculture use of pasturage for cattle, orchards of banana, citrus, breadfruit, and mango, As indicated on the site plan (Figure 3), the additional hale will be sited adjacent to and incorporated into the current gardens and orchards. The orchards consists of mango, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, lilikoi, Ti and organic vegetable gardens. The additional units will be sited in a manner that would not impact the orchards and gardens. 10 E. Water County water is provided to the Retreat through water lines installed by the Applicant from a meter located at Akoni Pule Highway. F. Solid Waste Pursuant to Condition 9 of the SPP, the Retreat received approval of its solid waste management plan from the Department of Environmental Management. This plan includes composting of all green waste, paper, cardboard, and food waste. It will continue to be implemented. G. Other Essential Utilities and Services The Retreat produces its own electricity with 60 photovoltaic panels, large storage batteries, converter panels, and a back-up generator. The Retreat is not connected to the electrical grid. Water is heated with numerous solar panels. Telephone lines were laid concurrently with the water lines. H. Compliance Report Condition 2 of the Special Permit required the Applicant to provide a report of its activities prior to issuance of the occupancy permit. In a letter, dated November 11, 2007, such a report was provided to the Planning Department. (Exhibit D) The letter outlines how the Applicant has addressed conditions relating to public access, advisory board, access, and any complaints. VII. JUSTIFICATIONS FOR AMENDMENT TO SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREA PERMIT No. 415 AND SPECIAL PERMIT No. 117 Based on the foregoing, it is concluded that the proposed improvements are consistent with the objectives, policies and guidelines of the Special Management Area Rules and Regulations. Specifically: SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREA The subject site is situated within the County Special Management Area (SMA). As such, this section covers the project's relationship to the goals and policies of the SMA. A. Recreational Resources The proposed improvements should not have any adverse impact to the recreational resources of the area. Although a coastal property, the area is outside of the Conservation District. Notwithstanding the location of the Retreat, it has already provided coastal access with parking for the public in accordance with a County 11 approved plan. None of the proposed improvements will impede this access or its activities. Further, the nature of the project is of such a nature that water quality to the nearshore waters should not be compromised given the appropriate wastewater system will be installed. B. Historical and Cultural Resources While the site does not have any archaeological resources, there are cultural implications. As noted earlier, 1. Traditional and Customary Native Hawaiian Rights: The owners of the Retreat have lived in the community for nearly 50 years. During the past 15 years, traditional Hawaiian ceremonies and customary protocols have been held on this land. Further, local divers, fishermen, and pickers of opihi have frequently parked and then traversed the property to access the ocean. 2. Coastal Public Access: The subject property is a shoreline parcel. The project area is approximately 100 feet from the cliff. The required lateral and mauka/makai shoreline public access plan, as identified in Figure 4, is in compliance with Condition 5 of SMA Use Permit No. 417. The public access trail was created and maintained on a regular basis. Public parking was created for those wishing to access the trails. 3. Lincoln Burial: There is an existing burial(s) on adjacent TMK:5-4-009:20 within the State Land Use Conservation District consisting of .779 acres. Figure 4 also depicts an access easement on TMK:5-4-009:14 to the burial site. In sum, the Applicant has been very sensitive of the cultural aspects of the property and accommodated these aspects into its program. It can thus be reasonably concluded that this project would have no significant adverse impact relating to native Hawaiian cultural and historical resources and/or practices that cannot be otherwise mitigated. C. Scenic and Open Space Resources The only reasonable open space in this area would be the shoreline. The project is not adjacent to the shoreline, as there is a band of Conservation District. The coastal use would not be significantly visually or otherwise impacted by this project. Further, the height and size of the proposed hale would be within the existing agricultural fields and thus somewhat not overly visible within the Retreat, let alone from the shoreline or the Highway. 12 D. Coastal Ecosystem The proposed hale should not generate any adverse impacts to the area's coastal ecosystem. None of the improvements should generate significant site-generated water. They could — like a typical residence — easily be dissipated within the ground. If needed, a site drainage plan can be prepared and, if needed, required mitigative improvements implemented. Thus, the project's impacts to the groundwater and nearshore waters should be negligible, if at all. Finally, the project's wastewater will be addressed through a system of septic system approved by the State Department of Health. E. Economic Uses The project itself should have some significant direct and indirect. economic impacts, due to the short-term and long-term jobs this project could potentially generate. The short-term jobs would be principally in the construction industry. The long-term direct employment impact would come in the form of possibly up to five (5) new full and/or part-time employees for the overall Retreat. Additionally, there would be indirect employment created through the project's multiplier effect. At the same time, by providing a convenient area for employment, it would minimize drive time for many area workers who would otherwise have to travel outside of the district to their place of employment. These people could more productively utilize the time lost on the road. F. Coastal Hazards The site is designated "X" on the Flood Insurance Rate map. However, it is located within the Civil Defense Tsunami Evacuation Zone. The Applicant will continue to take measures to institute appropriate educational and training protocols for their employees and other tenants in times of a tsunami. As the site is not located adjacent to the shoreline, normal winter storm waters should not be an issue for this project. Based on the foregoing, it is concluded that the proposed improvements are consistent with the objectives, policies and guidelines of the Special Management Area Rules and Regulations. Specifically: A. The proposed project will not have any substantial, adverse environmental or ecological effect. Any effect that may result will be minimized to the extent practicable and is clearly outweighed by public health, safety and welfare, and other compelling public interest. 13 Further, it will not generate any adverse effects by themselves or in conjunction with other individual developments, the potential cumulative impacts of which would result in a substantial adverse environmental or ecological effect and the elimination of planning options. Appropriate mitigative measures will be taken to address any potential adverse impacts of this project. B. The proposed activities - as discussed earlier - are consistent with the objectives, policies, and guidelines of the SMA Rules and Regulations,- and C. The proposed activities are consistent with the County General Plan and County Zoning Code, as noted in this Chapter of this document. SPECIAL PERMIT GUIDELINES In determining whether the requested use is an "unusual and reasonable use" and thus should be permitted within the Agricultural District, certain guidelines are used. These guidelines and their relationship to the requested use follow. A. Relationship to Land Use Law and Objectives The subject request will not be contrary to the Land Use Commission Rules (HAR, Title 15, Chapter 15), Planning Commission Rules (Rule 6), or Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes, which purposes are to 1) preserve, protect, and encourage the development of lands in the State for their best uses in the interest of the public welfare, and 2) protect, conserve, and rationally develop the State's urban, agricultural, and conservation lands using a coordinated and balanced approach. In this situation, the subject site's soil resource is Class B or "Good" and C or "Fair". The soil resource based on that classification is thus deemed important. It should be noted that the project will result in no land currently used for agriculture More importantly, however, the project will result in the more intensive agricultural use. The project should result in a more intensive agricultural use of the subject site, while fostering hands-on learning of agricultural practices. B. Relationship to General Plan and Other Planning Requirements The project's relationship to the County General Plan and North Kohala Community Development Plan is discussed in Chapter V-B and C. Relative to the County General Plan, it should be noted that while the General Plan was amended in 2005 (subsequent to approval of the SPP), there were no significant changes to the policies and LUPAG map affecting to the subject area. Thus, the reasons justifying the original request as outlined in the Commission's approval of the SPP (Exhibit A), still apply. 14 In sum, Chapter V-B notes the project's consistency with the goals and policies of the Agricultural, Land Use, and Economic elements. The project will enhance the agricultural activities of the site, while potentially fostering other areas to engage in agricultural pursuits as well. There will be added direct employment opportunities. Further, the project will address all essential infrastructure requirements without burdening the community and County. The project also fulfills the objectives of the North Kohala CDP, as outlined in Chapter V-C. Specifically, it implements the access and growth management goals. All structures will be built to comply with the Zoning Code standards, such as parking, setback, height, loading area, and possible additional landscaping. Further, with the additional 20 units, the Retreat will still fall within the 40-room density threshold of a "lodge" which is identified as being a permitted use within the County Agriculture zone. C. Impacts to Surrounding Properties The additional hale are located on the property so they will not impact any adjacent properties. Two of the three adjacent properties are used for cattle grazing. The third property {TMK:5-4-009-020 is owned by Sunderland /Watkins Trust and is used for farming. The existing background ambient noise level in this area is wind, foliage, birds, and the like. The significant manmade noise is influenced by the traffic associated along the Akoni Pule Highway. The Highway, however, is nearly a mile from the subject site. With the additional Hale, there will be a minor increase in traffic along Lokahi road and Maluhia Road. Given the above, the traffic impact should not be significant at the Akoni Pule Highway. There could potentially be short-term noise impacts during the construction phase. To mitigate this impact, the development of this project— particularly the site work - will be limited to daylight hours and on weekdays. Contractors will also be required to comply with established State Department of Health guidelines and standards relating to noise and emission controls. However, as noted earlier, given the absence of residences immediately adjacent to the site, noise and construction related impacts should not be significant. The proposed development should not generate any direct air quality impacts. As the project itself is not expected to have uses that generate adverse air pollutants, the only discernible air quality impact would be associated with the few vehicular traffic to and from the site. While the added traffic will have an impact to the ambient air quality, the impact should not be significant. This is due in part to the higher EPA standards for vehicular air emissions and the prevailing Tradewinds 15 D_ Suitability of the Site The site is suitable for the requested uses. Hawaii Island Retreat is already established and providing services to guests for 13 years. These additional hale will provide an expanded choice of occupancy. The site for the additional hale is already used for lawns, orchards and gardens so there will be no additional environmental, archaeological, or cultural constraints that would render the site unfeasible for the requested use. All the basic infrastructure is already in place. Additional septic systems will need to be installed for the additional hale. The site is situated between Hawi and Kapa'au. This will provide another potential employment base for residents of North Kohala, some of whom travel outside of the district for employment. E. Altering Character of Land Any development of this site will minimally transform the character of the land. However, this transformation will not involve the creation of a new landform such as a quarry. The basic agricultural ambiance will still be retained. The structures will be kept to a residential scale and tucked into orchards and gardens. F. Unusual Conditions or Trends In 1999, the Hawaii Tourism Authority prepared a Tourism Strategic Plan prepared, wherein the Plan recommended that the State look into tourism market niche opportunities. Two of these — although somewhat overlapping — are Agri-Tourism and Edu-Tourism. Agri-Tourism is travel for education with an agricultural bent. Edu- Tourism is along that line with an emphasis on education and training in Hawaii's unique natural and multi-cultural environment. The Retreat has embraced both of these niche opportunities plus Eco-Tourism by creating a sustainable destination creating electricity with wind and solar, growing much of the fruits and vegetables used on property, and teaching agriculture and sustainability practices, and Hawaii's unique natural and multi-cultural environment Based upon the foregoing, it is concluded that the project is an "unusual and reasonable" use of the subject site and would promote the effectiveness and objectives of Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes. 16 Hairy Kim Alayar tTE•OF•H+1 County of Hawaii PLAMI LNG COMMSSION 25 Aupuni Street, Room 109 + Hilo,Hawaii 96720-425-9 (808)961-8286 • Fax(808)961-8742 CERTIFIED MAIL 7000 0600 0024 2903 7189 .%Ul' T 4 2VIN Mr. Sidney Fuke 100 Pauahi Street, Suite 212 Hilo, III 96720 Dear Fuke: Special Management Area Use Permit Application (SMA 00-003) Special Permit Application(SPP 01-006) Applicant: Robert Watkins and Jean Sunderland Request: Establishment of a 16=Room Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat Tax Map Key: 5-4-9:Portion of 1 The Planning Commission at its duly held public hearing on August 2, 2001, voted to approve the above=referenced applications. Special Management Area(SMA) Use Permit No. 417 and Special Permit No. 1117 are hereby issued to establish a 16-room Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat on approximately 5± acres of land situated in the State Land Use Agricultural District. The property is located approximately one mile makai from Alcom Pule Highway and Kamehameha Park, Hanaula and Honopueo,Forth Kohala, Hawaii. Approval of this requests are based on the following: Special Management Area Use Permit (SMA 00-003) The purpose of Chapter 205-A, Hawaii Revised Statutes and Rule 9, Special Management Area Rules and Regulations of the County of Hawaii, is to preserve,protect, and, where possible, to restore the natural resources of the coastal zone areas. Therefore; special controls on development within an area along the shoreline are,necessary to avoid permanent loss of valuable resources arid the foreclosure of Management options, and to insure that adequate public access is provided to public-owned or used beaches, recreation areas, and natural reserves by dedication or other means. Planning Dept. EXHIBIT A Exhibit- A Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 2 The proposed Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat (hereinafter referred to as "retreat")will not have any significant adverse environmental or ecological effect. The project site, consisting of approximately 5 acres, is situated on lands formally cultivated in sugar cane, with the exception of that portion within Hanaula Gulch. With the exception of the gulch, sugar cane production essentially eliminated any habitats that could have supported endangered species of plants or animals. The applicants have conducted a botanical survey that is consistent with previous findings from an earlier survey that concluded that indigenous and endemic plants are not situated within the project site, but are located within Conservation lands situated immediately makai of the project site. The applicants have also referenced a faunal survey conducted for a similar project located approximately 1.5 miles to the east that concluded that the project site does not provide habitat for any endangered species of animals. According to the applicants, proposed structures and its related improvements will only occupy about 1 acre of land within the 5-acre project site. Another 3 acres will be cultivated for vegetables, fruits and herbs. The limited nature of proposed improvements and activities are not anticipated to impart any significant adverse impacts to the physical environment within the immediate area. Wastewater generated by the proposed retreat will be disposed of within an aerobic septic system that will comply with applicable Department of Health requirements. During construction, the applicants will abide by current construction practices to minimize any dust and runoff that may be generated. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives, policies and guidelines of the Special Management Area. These objectives and policies were established to provide guidance for the preservation, protection and development of coastal resources of the State and County. They identify several areas of management concerns including historic, recreational, scenic resources, coastal ecosystems, economic use and coastal hazards. The proposed retreat will not interfere with any recreational resources,natural shoreline processes or impact view planes to the coastal area. Coastal recreational resources will not be adversely impacted by the proposed retreat due to the location of the project site approximately 200 feet inland from the shoreline. Coastal recreational opportunities within this area are limited since cliffs dominate the shoreline. Visual impacts from the Akoni Pule Highway are expected to be minimal due to vegetation that exists makai of the highway that does not afford a viewplane to the coastline. The project site is situated close to a mile makai of the Akoni Pule Highway. This distance, combined with proposed structures that will not exceed 30 feet in height, will minimize adverse visual impact to adjoining properties and from the Akom Pule Highway. p Compliance with existing governmental regulations to control runoff, drainage y and erosion, especially during the project's construction phase, would mitigate any j adverse impact to the area's environment or the ecology of the area's coastal waters. Mi-_ Sidney Fuke Page Wastewater generated by the proposed retreat will be disposed of within an aerobic septic system designed and constructed in accordance with the requirements of the State Department of Health. The distance of the project site from the shoreline, about 200 feet, should provide a reasonable physical buffer between the project site and the shoreline environment to further minimize any adverse interaction that may be generated by the proposed retreat. The project site is situated outside of the 100-year flood plain(Zone X) and well outside of the coastal portions of the subject property that are subject to coastal flooding hazards, such as coastal storm waves. The construction of all structures and facilities within the project site will be required to comply with applicable requirements of the Building Code as well as with the County's Flood Control Code. In order to ensure the proper disposal of solid waste generated by the proposed retreat and to encourage its recycling, this approval recommendation will require the applicants to develop a solid waste management plan meeting with the approval of the Planning Director. The applicants have noted within its applications that the proposed retreat "relies considerably on the concept of recycling." -- An archaeological assessment of the project site was done by Haun and Associates on February 16, 2001. The assessment concluded that no historic or prehistoric artifacts or structures were observed within the proposed building sites. The applicants noted the following within their applications: "To address potential cultural and archaeological matters, it is noted that there was no identifiable mauka/makai coastal access found on the site. Further, there appeared to be evidence of the site serving as a gathering of native plants. Notwithstanding that, the applicants are prepared, through its program of instituting Native Hawaiian plants, to collaborate with native Hawaiians with valid claims to this are in opening up access." While the archaeological assessment concludes that the proposed retreat will not adversely impact archaeological and historic features, the applicants did disclose that there does appear to be evidence of gathering of native plants from within the project site. The applicants submitted a supplementary letter dated May 28, 2001 concerning traditional Hawaiian uses of the area. They indicate that there is no gathering of plants but that they have seen an individual going to the shoreline to pick `opihi. Although the coast fronting most of the subject property consists of a high sea cliff, it is possible to walk to the shoreline through Hanaula Gulch. This gulch is one of a handful of places where people can actually reach the shoreline on the North Kohala coast between the communities of Hawi and Niulii, a distance of about six iniles. It Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 4 potentially provides access to shoreline natural resources for traditional Hawaiian gathering and fishing. There is also a "Lincoln Family Grave Lot" located within the subject property. This is, apparently, the location of family graves of the Lincoln Family. The access to the proposed site is presently blocked at some distance away. The applicants have committed to collaborate with native Hawaiians with "valid claims to this area"in providing access. At this time, it is not clear exactly what evidence exists that leads the applicants to arrive at these findings nor is it clear what resource within the project site are being gathered. Nevertheless, the applicants have demonstrated its commitment to preserve native Hawaiian gathering rights within the project site should they be substantiated. A condition of this approval recommendation will provide a mechanism by which the preservation of traditional and customary native Hawaiian practices within the project site are identified and protected. On the matter of coastal access, there are no known mauka-makai public shoreline access that will be adversely affected by the establishment of the proposed retreat. However, Chalon International of Hawaii, Inc., the current owner of the project site and surrounding lands, did propose the construction of the Kohala Coastal Trail on lands situated immediately makai of the project site within the State Land Use Conservation District. While this coastal trail was never completed or established, the Planning Department does recognize the importance and desire of preserving its alignment along the North Kohala coastline. Therefore, it is recommended that a condition of approval be included to require the applicants to work with the Planning Department to identify and establish a lateral shoreline public access on lands situated immediately makai of the project site. The establishment of the proposed retreat within the Special Management Area is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Code. The property is zoned A-20a by the Zoning Code, and the General Plan's Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide (LUPAG) Map designates the area as Intensive Agriculture. The proposed retreat would complement the following goals and policies of the General Plan: Land Use • Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and in keeping with the social, cultural and physical environments of the County. z • The County shall encourage the development and maintenance of communities t meeting the needs of its residents in balance with the physical and social environment. t1 Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 5 Economic • Provide residents with opportunities to improve their quality of life. • The County shall provide an economic environment which allows new, expanded, or improved economic opportunities that are compatible with the County's natural and social environment. • The County of Hawaii shall strive for an economic climate which provides its residents an opportunity for choice of occupation. Natural Beauty • Protect scenic vistas and view planes from becoming obstructed. The proposed retreat, will integrate proposed agricultural activities within the project site and within its operations and programs. More specifically, the applicants will establish fruit, vegetable and herbal gardens within the project site. The overall concept of the proposed retreat is to enable guests to learn and experience the cultivation of agricultural practices and the benefits of traditional Hawaiian food and medicinal herbs, as well as spiritual wellness through a series of"hands-on"programs. The agricultural products grown on-site will be served to guests while the Hawaiian medicinal herbs would be used as part of the retreat's educational and wellness programs. Staff employ-,d by the retreat will assist guests in the cultivation and maintenance of the gardens. Through its proposed programs, the applicants have demonstrated its commitment to conduct agricultural activities in a manner consistent with the objectives of the General Plan by blending together two distinct uses that will mutually benefit each other, yet preserve the agricultural character of the project site and the surrounding community. The North Kohala Community Development Plan, adopted in 1984 by Planning Commission Resolution No. 2-84, 'Encourage the development of conference and retreat facilities which capitalize on North Kohala's agricultural and historical resources. " As previously mentioned, the proposed project will incorporate various agricultural activities within the project site and in its operations. This "blending" of a retreat.facility and agricultural activities is consistent with this specific recommendation of the North Kohala Community Development Plan. The vision for retreat facilities that capitalize on North Kohala's agricultural resources has been in place for at least 15 years and is slowly beirig realized as North Kohala further establishes itself as a"wellness community." The proposed retreat will not, by itself, contribute significantly to the economy of North Kohala. The applicants intend to hire 3 to 4 people to assist them in the operation lvh-. Sidney Fuke Page 6 and maintenance of the proposed retreat. Instead, approval of the proposed retreat will be reflected as a commitment by the County to seek new directions in the type of industries, economic opportunities, and use of its resources. The County has recognized that extensive,plantation-style agriculture is slowly becoming less of an economic factor on this island. Smaller acreages of land are being cultivated by smaller entities. Many large landowners may no longer have the resources necessary to conduct intensive agricultural activities over vast expanses of land. The County must consider various non-agricultural options that could have a secondary, beneficial effect upon a landowner's ability to cultivate their land. The project site provides an excellent case-in-point. The project site and its surrounding lands are owned by a large landowner that has allowed the prof ect site and its surrounding area to lie in.fallow; which does not assist in the County's effort to maximize the use of its important agricultural lands. The applicants, on the other hand, will establish vegetable, fruit and herb gardens within the project site that will be incorporated into the healing and wellness experiences being offered by the proposed retreat. In the final analysis, approval of the proposed retreat will promote the use of important agricultural lands within the project site rather than preserving the current fallow condition of these vital lands. Based on the above, the proposed retreat will not have any substantial adverse impacts to the project site or its surrounding area; and therefore will not be contrary to the purpose and intent of Chapter 205-A, HRS,relating to Coastal Zone Management,Rule 9 of the Planning Commission relating to the Special Management Area, the General Plan and Zoning Code of the County of Hawaii. Approval of this request is subject to the following conditions. Further, should any of the conditions not be met or substantially complied with in a timely fashion, the Director may initiate procedures to revoke the permit. I. The applicants, successors or assigns shall be responsible for complying with all of the stated conditions of approval. 2. The construction of the retreat and the operation of all of its related facilities and activities shall be conducted in a manner that is substantially representative of plans and details as contained with the Applications for Special Management Area Use Permit and Special Use Permit, Proposed Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat dated March 2001. 3. The proposed retreat shall be established within five (5) years from the effective date of this permit. Prior to establishing this use, the applicants shall secure Final Plan Approval from the Planning Director in accordance with the Zoning Code, Sections 25-2-71(f), 25-2-72, 25-2-76 and 25-2-77. Plans shall identify all proposed structures, parking area(s), access driveway(s) and landscaping 0 Mr. Sidney Fuke .Page 7 4. associated with the proposed use. The applicants shall notify the Planning Department, in writing, of the completion of required improvements prior to commencing operation of the proposed retreat. S. The applicants shall develop a public access plan for the subject property that provides, at a minimum, a continuous traversable lateral public access along the coastal portion of the subject property, and access through Hanaula Gulch to the shoreline. "Subject property"means the approximately 40-acre area proposed to be subdivided from the larger 689-acre parcel. The applicants shall also allow vehicular access across the subject property and parking for a minimum of two vehicles for members of the public to use the shoreline access. This public access plan shall be submitted to the Planning Director for approval not more than one year after the granting of this permit. 6. In conjunction with the public access plan, the applicants shall submit an updated certified Conservation District Boundary Interpretation Map, showing the location of the proposed buildings and access path through Hanaula Gulch in relation to the Conservation District Boundary. 7. The applicants shall submit photographs of the site from cliff-top locations east and west of the subject property. "er review of the photographs, the Planning Director may require that the main buildings be located up to 100 feet mauka of the pall and the hales up to SO feet from the pali, in order to preserve the vista of open undeveloped coastline that presently exists in the general area. The existing grove of ironwood trees near the proposed main building shall be retained as a landscaping buffer. 8. The applicants shall permit native Hawaiians to exercise any gathering rights within the subject property and to cross the subject property to reach the shoreline through Hanaula Gulch. The applicants shall also permit Lincoln family members to visit the family graves. 9. A Solid Waste Management Plan shall be submitted for review and approval by the Department of Public Works prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for any portion of the proposed retreat. 10. Should any unidentified sites or remains such as artifacts, shell, bone, or charcoal deposits, human burials, rock or coral alignments, pavings or walls be encountered, work in the immediate area shall cease and the Department of Land and Natural Resources-State Historic Preservation Division (DLNR-SHPD) shall 'be immediately notified-.--Subsequent work-shall-proceed upon an-archaeological-- clearance from the DLNR-SHPD when it finds that sufficient mitigative measures 0 t � Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 8 have been taken. IL Comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and requirements of the affected agencies including those of the Department of Public Works, Department of Health, and the Fire Department, including a water tank with adequate capacity for fire-fighting purposes. 12. A final status report shall be submitted in writing to the Planning Director upon compliance with all conditions of approval. 13. An initial extension of time for the performance of conditions within the permit may be granted by the Planning Director upon the following circumstances: A. The non-performance is the result of conditions that could not have been foreseen or are beyond the control of the applicants, successors or assigns, and that are not the result of their fault or negligence. B. Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the General Plan F or Zoning Code. C. Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the original reasons for granting of the permit. D. The time extension granted shall be for a period not to exceed the period originally granted for performance (i.e., a condition to be performed within one year may be extended for up to one additional year). Special Use Permit(SPP 01-006) In considering a Special Permit for any proposed use,Rule 6 of the Planning Commission relating to Special Permits require that such action conform to the following guidelines: t a. Such use shall not be contrary to the objectives sought to be accomplished by the } Land Use Law and Regulations; R b. The desired use shall not adversely affect surrounding properties; i C. Such use shall not wireasonably burden public agencies to provide roads and p streets, sewers, water, drainage, school improvements, and police and fire a protection; r Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 9 d. Unusual conditions, trends, and needs have arisen since the district boundaries and regulations were established; C. The land upon which the proposed use is sought is unsuited for the uses permitted within the district; f. The proposed use will not substantially alter or change the essential character of the land and the present use; and g. The request will not be contrary to the General Plan and official Community Development Plan and other documents such as Design Plans. In addition to the guidelines detailed above, the Planning Commission must also find that the proposed use: a. Is an unusual and reasonable use of land situated within the Agricultural or Rural District, whichever the case may be; and b. Would promote the effectiveness and objectives of Chapter 205,Hawaii Revised -- Statutes, as amended. While a proposed use must meet all of these criteria for approval by the Planning Con-unission, a denial may be made upon a finding of conflict with any of those criteria. It is felt that the granting of this particular request at this particular location would be consistent with the objectives sought to be accomplished by the Land Use Law and Regulations, the County General Plan and Community Development Plans. The granting of this request will promote the effectiveness and objectives of Chapter 205, Hawaii Revised Statutes, as amended. The State Land Use Law and Regulations are intended to preserve, protect and encourage the development of lands in the State for those uses to which they are best suited in the interest of the public health and welfare of the people of the State of Hawaii. In the case of the Agricultural District, the intent is to preserve or Deep lands of high agricultural potential in agricultural use. In recognizing that lands within the Agricultural Districts may not be best suited for agricultural activities and yet classified as such, and in recognition that certain types of uses may not be strictly agricultural in nature, yet reasonable in such districts, the legislature has provided for the Special Permit process to allow certain unusual and reasonable uses within the Agricultural District_ Goals specified within the General Plan states that the County shall "Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping ivith the social, cultural, and ph-vsical envirownents" and"Identify,, protect and maintain iinpo3-tant agriculture lands on the island of Hawaii. " Based on the site plan provided within the applicants' submittal and the Planning Department's assessment of soil 4 Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 10 classification data, the majority of the project site is situated on lands that maintain an overall master productivity rating of"C" or "Fair" according to the Land Study Bureau's Detailed Land Classification-Island of Hawaii (1965). The Agricultural Lands of Importance to the State of Hawaii (ALISH) Maps also identify the majority of lands within the project site as "Prime" agricultural lands with the remaining balance of the project site within the Hanaula Gulch, Unclassified. The location of"Prime" agricultural lands correlates with the location of Class "C"lands. The proposed Hawaiian permaculture and wellness retreat(hereinafter referred to as "retreat"), if approved, will integrate proposed agricultural activities within the project site and within its operations and programs. More specifically, the applicants will establish fruit, vegetable and herbal gardens within the project site. The overall concept of the proposed retreat is to enable guests to learn and experience the cultivation of agricultural practices and the benefits of traditional Hawaiian food and medicinal herbs, as well as spiritual wellness through a series of"hands-on"programs. The agricultural products grown on-site will be served to guests while the Hawaiian medicinal herbs would be used as part of the retreat's educational and wellness programs. Staff employed by the retreat will assist guest in the cultivation and maintenance of the gardens. Through its proposed programs, the applicants have demonstrated its commitment to conduct agricultural activities in a manner consistent with the objectives of the State Land Use Law and General Plan by blending together two distinct uses that will mutually benefit each other. The project site is currently vacant of any agricultural uses, although it has been historically used for sugar cane cultivation. While approval of this Special Permit will introduce non-agricultural uses into the area, the integration of agricultural activities as part of its operations and programs will, in the end, place these important agricultural lands into active agricultural use versus its current fallow condition. The landowners, Chalon International of Hawaii, Inc., has a pending subdivision application that would create a 40-acre parcel where this proposed development would be located. Most of this 40-acre parcel is actuaIIy within Hanaula Gulch and is not suitable for agriculture. l To ensure that the level of agricultural activity occurring within the project site is consistent with the objectives to be accomplished by the State Land Use Law and the General Plan, the applicants will be required to prepare an agricultural plan that incorporates, at a minimum, the cultivation of at least one-half of the less steep lands on the project site as represented by the applicants. N The North Kohala Community Development Plan, adopted in 1984 by Planning Commission Resolution No_ 2-84, "Encourage the development of conference and retreat facilities which capitalize on North Kohala's agricultural and historical resources. " As d previously mentioned, the proposed project will incorporate various agricultural activities within the project site and in its operations. This "blending" of a retreat facility and agricultural activities is consistent with this specific recommendation of the North Kohala c Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 11 Community Development Plan. Finally, approval of the subject request will be consistent with the following goals and policies of the Land Use and Economic Elements of the General Plan: Land Use Element • Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with the social, cultural and physical environments of the County. • Protect and encourage the intensive utilization of the County's important agricultural lands. Economic Element • The County shall assist the expansion of the agricultural industry, especially diversified agriculture, through the protection of important agricultural lands, capital improvements and other programs, and continued cooperation with appropriate State and Federal agencies. • The County shall strive for diversity and stability in its economic system. • The County of Hawaii shall strive for diversification of its economy by strengthening existing industries and attracting new endeavors. The desired use will not adversely affect the surrounding properties_ The project site, consisting of S acres, is situated within a larger parcel consisting of approximately 689 acres. Structures that will house the various activities associated with the proposed retreat will be situated about three-quarters of a mile from the nearest residence. We feel that this distance is adequate to minimize any adverse noise impacts that may be generated by the proposed use. Short-term construction activities during the development phase of the proposed project inay result in noise, dust and other construction-related impacts, but these are expected to be short-lived and minimized with the application of standard construction practices. Visual impacts from the Akoni Pule Highway are also expected to be minimal due to the heavy vegetation that exists makai of the highway that does not afford a viewplane to the coastline. The project site is situated close to a mile makai of the Akoni Pule IIighway. This distance, combined with proposed structures that will not exceed 30 feet in height, will minimize adverse visual impact to adjoining properties and the Akoni Pule Highway. V Y' N'Ir. Sidney Fuke Page 12 This approval recommendation also includes a condition of approval that will allow the Planning Director to suspend activities permitted by the Special Permit should the applicants fail to comply with conditions of this approval or is unable to resolve any complaint relating to interference or nuisance upon the surrounding community. Should the applicants fail to comply with the conditions of approval or has caused any I unreasonable interference or nuisance on the surrounding community, the permit may be i revoked by the Planning Commission. The desired use will not unreasonably burden public agencies to provide roads and streets, sewers, water, drainage, police and fire protection. According to the application, access to the project site from the Akoni Pule Highway will be accommodated by Union Mill Road (for a distance of 2,500±feet), Pratt Road(for a distance of 2,000±feet) and a former cane haul road (for a distance of 3,800± feet), all of which are privately owned and maintained. Union Mill Road has a pavement width of 18 to 20 feet. Pratt Road has a gravel surface approximately 14 to 16 feet wide. Finally, the former cane haul road has a gravel surface approximately 12 to 14 feet wide. In response to concerns expressed by some residents along Union Mill Road, the applicants have agreed to a condition of this approval that would prohibit access to the project site via Union Mill Road. As represented by the applicants to the Planning Commission during its August 2, 2001 meeting, alternative access could be provided by either one of two existing access easements to the Akoni Pule Highway. These access easements, one through the Kamehameha Park and the other near Union Market, could each provide the proposed use with satisfactory access to the Akoni Pule Highway, provided that they are improved with a minimum 20-foot wide compacted gravel surface and that its intersection with the highway meet the requirements of the State Department of Transportation. The proposed retreat will accommodate guests witli an anticipated length of stay ranging from 5 to 14 days. Shuttles provided by the applicants will transport guests to and from the site as necessary. Finally,most activities associated with the retreat will be conducted on-site. These operational characteristics lead the applicants to conclude that the proposed retreat will not have a significant adverse impact to traffic within the affected area. The Police Department did express some concerns regarding the potential impact upon traffic and roadways within the area. With recommended d improvements to portions of Pratt Road and the former cane haul road and the limited amount of traffic anticipated to be generated by the proposed retreat, we feel that the roadway concerns of the Police Department have been adequately addressed by the applicants. The Police Department did note drainage concerns within the area of Union Mill Road and Pratt Road. However, these drainage concerns are not limited to the applicants or the proposed retreat. The drainage concerns in this area of North Kohala are part of a larger, community-wide concern that must be addressed through the collaboration of affected landowners and County and State governments. 0 Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 13 The County's water system does not extend to the project site. Potable water will be provided by the applicants through the construction of on-site storage tanks as well as by bottled water. Water catchment systems or a well will provide for non-potable water to service the project's irrigation and wastewater systems and needs. The applicants anticipate that the proposed project would use approximately 3,200 gallons of potable and non-potable water per day. The applicants have indicated that they will comply with the requirements of the Department of Health and the Fire Department. Compliance with the requirements of these agencies will be made a condition of this approval recommendation to ensure that the safety of potable water for its guests and the availability of adequate fire protection. The Department of Water Supply had no comments regarding the proposed development. The applicants will utilize an aerobic septic systems and leach fields to accommodate wastewater generated by the proposed retreat in accordance with Department of Health requirements. All other essential public utilities and facilities are or will be made available to support the proposed retreat. Unusual conditions, trends and needs have arisen since the district boundaries and regulations were established. The State and the County, through its land use laws, have the fiduciary responsibility of protecting its important agricultural lands located in limited quantities throughout the state. However, the protection of these lands cannot be accomplished without consideration of non-agricultural uses that, when combined, creates a mutually beneficial relationship that enhances the ability of an entity to utilize these important agricultural lands in a feasible manner. Extensive, plantation-style agriculture is slowly becoming less of an economic factor on this island. Smaller acreages of land are being cultivated by smaller entities. Many large landowners may no longer have the resources necessary to conduct intensive agricultural activities over vast expanses of land. The County must consider various non-agricultural options that could have a secondary, beneficial effect upon a landowner's ability to cultivate their land. The project site provides an excellent case-in-point. The project site and its surrounding lands are owned by a large landowner that has allowed the project site and its surrounding area to lie in fallow; which does not assist in the County's effort to maximize the use of its important agricultural lands. The applicants, on the other hand, will establish vegetable, fruit and herb gardens within the project site that will be incorporated into the healing and wellness experiences being offered by the proposed retreat. In the final analysis, approval of the proposed retreat will promote the use of important agricultural lands within the project site rather than preserving the current fallow condition of these vital lands. The land on which the proposed use is sought is unsuited for the uses permitted within the district. While this particular criteria for approval of a Special Permit seeks to utilize "unsuitable" agricultural lands for non-agricultural types of uses, the Planning Department feels that certain non-agricultural uses may be appropriate on lands suitable z Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 14 for agriculture. As discussed in the previous paragraph, the department is seeking a balance of co-existing agricultural and non-agricultural uses that are mutually beneficial to each other. The current economic climate within the agriculture industry emphasizes the importance of seeking innovative means to sustain itself. The applicants' proposal is one such innovative approach to enhancing the cultivation and productivity of the lands upon which it will be established. The use will not substantially alter or change the essential character of the land and the present use. With the integration of agricultural activities within its operations, the proposed retreat will not significantly change the fundamental agricultural character of the project site or the surrounding area. The maximum height of structures proposed within the retreat is 30 feet, less than the maximum allowable 45 feet height permitted within the Agricultural-zoned district. The various structures will be distributed throughout the 5-acre project site in a manner that will promote to "open space ambiance" being sought by the applicants. To ensure the preservation of the agricultural character of the project site and surrounding area, it is recommended that the proposed retreat be constructed and operated in a manner that is substantially representative of plans and details contained within the Special Permit application. In response to the concerns of some area residents regarding the manner in which this proposed project will be developed and implemented within the North Kohala community, the applicants have agreed to a condition of this approval that will require the applicants to consult with area kupuna, prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the proposed use. This consultation process will foster dialogue between the community and the applicants to shape a Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat that will become an asset to the community of North Kohala. Based on the above considerations, it is determined that the establishment of the :Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat within the project site would promote the effectiveness and objectives of the State Land Use Law. Approval of this request is subject to the following conditions. Should any of these conditions not be met or substantially complied with in a timely fashion, the Director may initiate procedures to revoke this Special Permit. 1. The applicants, successor or assigns shall be responsible for complying with all stated conditions of approval. i 2. The proposed retreat shall be established within five (5) years from the effective date of this permit. Prior to establishing this use, the applicants shall secure Final Plan Approval from the Planning Director in accordance with the Zoning Code, Sections 25-2-71(f), 25-2-72, 25-2-76 and 25-2-77. Plans shall identify all , o s Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 15 proposed structures,parking area(s), access driveway(s) and landscaping associated with the proposed use. The applicants shall notify the Planning Department, in writing, of the completion of required improvements prior to commencing operation of the proposed retreat. 3. As represented by the applicants, the applicants shall consult with area kupuna and a cross-section of the community in the development and implementation of their project. This consultation process may be in the form of an advisory board. The advisory process shall include,but not be limited to, the Kohala Hawaiian Civic Club, Na Kupuna o`Kohala, Kaha`i Kupuna, and the Kohala Historic Preservation Counsel. Further, a written report of this consultation process shall be submitted to the Planning Department prior to the issuance of occupancy permit for the project and one year thereafter. 4. The construction of the retreat and the operation of all of its related facilities and activities shall be conducted in a manner that is substantially representative of plans and details as contained with the Apl2lications for Special Management Area Use Permit and Special Use Permit Proposed Hawaiian Permacult_ure_and Wellness Retreat dated March 2001. 5. The applicants shall prepare an agricultural plan for the project site,meeting with the approval of the Planning Director,prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for any portion of the proposed retreat. The agricultural plan shall include, at a minimum,the cultivation of a minimum of three(3) acres of land within the 5-acre project site. 6. Access for the project from the Akoni Pule Highway shall be other than Union Mill Road. Access shall be via an access easement through either the Kamehameha Park or near Union Market. Said drive access shall be improved, meeting with the approval of the State Department of Transportation. The applicants shall improve those portions of Pratt Road and the former cane haul road that provide access to the project site from the Akoni Pule Highway with a minimum 20-foot wide compacted gravel surface,prior to the establishment of the proposed retreat. 7. The applicants, in consultation with the Fire Department, shall provide for the fire-flow needs of the proposed retreat. S. Should any unidentified sites or remains suc!1 as ara acts, shell, bone, or charcoal deposits, human burials,rock or i�-no) is,pavings or walls be encountered, work in the immediate area shall cease and the Department of r Mr. Sidney Fuke :gage 16 and Natural Resources-State Historic Preservation Division (DLNR-SHPD) shall be immediately notified. Subsequent work shall proceed upon an archaeological clearance from the DLNR-SHPD when it finds that sufficient mitigative measures have been taken. 9. Comply with all other applicable Iaws, rules, regulations and requirements of the affected government agencies for the proposed use, including those of the Department of Health and the Fire Department. 10. If the applicants fail to comply with the conditions of approval or cause complaints relating to any interference or nuisance and is unable to resolve them with the surrounding community, the Planning Director shall investigate and, if necessary, suspend the permit. The Planning Director shall then refer the matter to the Planning Commission to revoke the permit. Upon appropriate findings by the Planning Commission, if the applicants fail to comply with the conditions of approval or has caused any unreasonable interference or nuisance on the surrounding community,the permit may be revoked. 11. An initial extension of time for the performance of conditions within the permit may be granted by the Planning Director upon the following circumstances: A. Non-performance is the result of conditions that could not have been foreseen or are beyond the control of the applicants, successors, or assigns and that are not the result of their fault or negligence. 4 B. Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the General Plan 1 or Zoning Code. i C. Granting of the time extension would not be contrary to the original reasons for the granting of the permit. D.

All conditions of the permits have been addressed as well as the conditions of the FINAL PLAN APPROVAL dated January 17,2003. We are virtually finished with the construction of the lodge and will be calling for our final inspection in a few weeks. I am including pictures of the lodge for your review. When final inspection is granted, this letter with inclusions will be submitted to the Planning Department Kona office to facilitate their review. Condition No.3: Listed below are the Building Permits for the lodge,swimming pool, spa,and yurts, and their status.

We have not nor will we book guests until we do receive the certificate of occupancy.Never the less, prior to receiving your letter, I already arranged with our web person to remove any pricing for the yurts from the website. Early in 2007, Mr.Usagawa come to our site and confirmed we were not using any yurts for residence or guests. Condition No.5: We are now requesting an inspection of the public access. It is ready at this time. I am including a copy of our approved PUBLIC ACCESS PLAN. In that plan we stale that we will open the access at the time we are granted a certificate of occupancy. We have removed all gates except for the one on our property. Even at this time that gate is open every work day from dawn to dusk(as is stated in the plan). I did not receive the letter of March 17,2004, however we do have the meets and bounds of the public access. I will have our attorney submit these documents immediately. We have Public Access signs ready to put up as soon as we receive our certificate of occupancy. EXHIBIT D Special Permit No. 1117 Condition No.3: Please find included the list of Advisory Board Members, minutes of meetings and follow-up letters to the Board. Condition No. 6: The road adjacent to Union Mill, named Maluhia has been resurfaced with gravel to a width of 20 ft. Following my letter of April 7,2006,we hired Pattison Surveyor, License# 10743,to survey the Road Easement from Hawi-Niulii Road(otherwise known as Akoni Pule Highway)and the old Pratt road. A copy of the survey is included. Per his survey,the entire road exceeding 20 ft is within the easement. All that was required to return this road to it's previous condition was to grub growth from the sides of the road and resurface the road. Ki Elmer informed its that per Mr. Galen Kuba, no permit may be granted when none is required. Our grubbing consisted of less than 1 acre so no grubbing permit was required and no permit is required for resurfacing an existing road. Letter is included for your files. Mr. James(Kimo)Vassemerillos has inspected the road to make sure it is 20 foot wide and approved the resurfacing. At the same time we resurfaced Maluhia road we also resurfaced Lokahi road (from Pratt to our property). It is my understanding that you are getting reports that construction materials are being transported along Union Mill road. It appears that those reporting assume these materials are being delivered to our site. They are not. Please find included with this report a detail of the building constructed on adjacent properties. A number of these buildings are being constructed without building permits. We formally request that these building projects be investigated so that we no longer are held responsible for actions of others. All these other properties use Union Mill road as their primary access. On TMKs: 5-4-3:20, 5, and 1,we have 55 acres of active farming adjacent to and outside the 5 acres designated for the retreat. Although Union Mill road is not an access for the retreat, it seems inappropriate for us to be excluded from using this access for our farm. We have been using Maluhia road(adjacent to Union Market)as our access for the retreat since June of 2006. Prior to June 2006, we received permission from Surety Kohala to use School road to access Pratt road and Pratt road to Lokahi road. I am happy to send you references that will confirm that we use Maluhia road for all deliveries. Condition No 10: Again we request that you investigate the building projects on adjacent properties. I am including pictures that show these buildings, some permitted and some not. During the past three years, we have had a number of investigations and each time those investigations found us to be in compliance with all conditions. Since we have not been informed as to who is submitting these complaints, we are at a loss as to how to resolve this misunderstanding. I am including a copy of a letter distributed to all residents of Union Mill road. Please respond within 30 days if there is any additional information that you may need to authorize our Certificate of Occupancy for the lodge. We anticipate applying for this Certificate in January 2008. 1 will call you after Thanksgiving to make sure all is in order,and to request an inspection of our Public Access. Please note that included is the ARCHAEOLOGICAL MONITORING REPORT from Haim $Associates. Sincerely, Jean Sunderland&Robert Watkins Enclosures COMPLIANCE REPORT for Special Use Permit No. 1117 SMA Use Permit No. 417 On August 14, 2001, The Planning Commission granted these permits with a number of conditions.

As well as recycling most of our own waste, we are also recycling waste (coffee grounds from Hawi Coffee Mill, cardboard, newspaper)from businesses in Hawi. 10. During excavation for our Lodge, and energy building, we hired Hann &Associates archeologists to monitor our work. As reported by Mr. Alan Hann, no artifacts of any kind were found.

Our initial agricultural plan with greater than 3 acres of cultivation was submitted and approved by the Planning Department concurrently with the Public Access Plan. Our planting is substantially as planned and presented in the agricultural plan. We have substituted Ti leaves for the Ilima on the burms that surround the energy building. Our vegetable gardens are planted to cover crops during this time of draught. As soon as the rains return, we will plant to vegetables. Ditch water is scarce right now and is planned to be reestablished early 2008. We will be able to plant gardens to vegetables as soon as the ditch water is again available or the rains have returned. We have also added grazing animals to our farm. We now have approximately 15 acres in grazing of sheep, cattle, and goats. 6. Our access, Maluhia road, adjacent to Union Market is now resurfaced to 20 ft width. . We have created a 20 ft wide graveled road from Pratt road to our retreat, and just re- graded that road adding gravel as needed. 7. We have provided a stand pipe for fire close to the Lodge. We also have constructed a catchment tank for water from the lodge roof This water is available as a back up for fire prevention. 8. Same as (10) above (#417) 9.

We apologize for the late response to your letter. Special Management Area Use Permit No. 417 and Special Permit No. 1117 were approved by the Planning Commission on August 2, 2001 to allow the establishment of a 16-room Hawaiian Permaculture and Wellness Retreat on approximately 5 acres on a portion of TMK: 5-4-9: 1. At the time of these permit approvals, the Honopueo Community Association was not established. The applicants had received approval from the owner of the easements (Chalon International of Hawaii, Inc.) to allow public access from Akoni Pule Highway to the subject property for the proposed retreat (see enclosed authorization letter dated September 3, 2001). Additionally,the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions of Honopueo was recorded with the Bureau of Conveyances on May 14, 2003. Within the recorded CC&Rs,there are certain references to public access and additional fees regarding the retreat center on Lot 16. Planning Dept. Exhibit 4 Hairar'i Count,is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer GAT 13 2011 1' y/ Mr. Marc Melton, President Honopueo Community Association Board of Directors Page 2 October 10, 2011 The references in the CC&R's include the following sections: "Section 3.11 Special Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreement Lot 16, because of its proposed commercial use as a retreat center,has been required to make part of the Association's roadways available to the public, and will generate larger amounts of traffic because of such use. Accordingly, Lot 16 hereby agrees to hold the Association and the Owners of the other Lots harmless, and indemnify them and each of them, including a reasonable attorney fee, from and for all costs, liabilities or impositions caused by, arising out of or causally connected with traffic to or from Lot 16. Upon being granted authority to occupy the premises, Lot 16 shall initiate and maintain at its own expense a comprehensive general liability policy with the limits set forth in Section 3.05 (ii)hereof name the Association and other Owners as additional insureds with respect to the undertakings made by Lot 16 in this Section 3.11. A copy of such policy shall be kept on file with the Association at all tinges. Section 4.02 Infrastructure Assessments. ........ Lot 16 is intended for commercial use as a retreat center. This has entailed certain governmental requirements for roadway construction over and above what would have been required of the remaining Lots for residential use alone. Such additional costs for infrastructure construction purposes have been allocated to Lot 16 in the assessment allocations in this Section 4.02. Should additional road or water requirements may be imposed upon Lot 16 by governmental authorities, the entire cost of fulfilling such requirements shall be borne by the Owner of Lot 16." Lastly, Section 4.02 was amended by the Association and recorded on November 29, 2005. This section continued to identify the use of Lot 16 as a commercial retreat center and placed additional conditions on the owners of Lot 16 regarding liability and infrastructure improvements. This document also identifies certain easements for"public use" in relation to Lot 16. To summarize, as mentioned in the previous email to Kathie Pomeroy on July 20,2011, public access to Lot 16 was identified in the deed for Lot 16,which included the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions of Honopueo. The CC&R's specifically identify specifically the commercial use of Lot 16 and that portions of the Association's roadways would be available to the public for access to Lot 16. Additionally,the owner of the easements (Chalon International of Hawaii, Inc.) authorized to allow public access from Akoni Pule Highway to the Lot 16 for the proposed retreat at the time of the approval of these permits, which was prior to the establishment of the Honopueo Community Association. Lastly, as part of the approval of SMA Use Permit No. 417, the Planning Commission required the applicants to develop a public access plan for the subject property, which has been complied with. r" Mr. Marc Melton, President Honopueo Community Association Board of Directors Page 3 October 10, 2011 If you have any questions,please feel free to contact Jeff Darrow at 961-8158.

Please be informed that the subject parcel is served by a 5/8-inch meter, which is limited to one (1) unit of water with an average daily usage of 400 gallons. The existing meter is located at the intersection of Akom Pule Highway and Maluhia Road. The Department will note that the average daily water usage over the past two (2)years, is approximately 4,100 gallons per day, which is equivalent to approximately eleven (11) units of water and exceeding the capacity of the existing meter. The current water availability conditions in the area can only provide one (1) unit of water per existing lot of record. Therefore, the Department's existing water system facilities cannot support the proposed project at this time. Extensive improvements and additions, which may include, but not limited to source, storage, booster pumps, transmission, and distribution facilities, would be required. Currently, sufficient funding is not available from the Department for such improvements and no time schedule is set. Please note that the Department of Water Supply acknowledges that potable water is Hawaii Island's most precious resource and encourages our communities to promote water conservation and reserve the highest quality of water for the most valuable end use. which is the sustenance of life.

Projects that propose development of new sources of drinking water serving or proposed to serve a public water system must comply with the terms of HAR 11-20-29, entitled "Use of new sources of raw water for public water systems." This section requires that all new public water system sources be approved by the Director of Health (Director) prior to its use. Such approval is based primarily upon the submission of a satisfactory engineering report, which addresses the requirements set in HAR Section 11-20-29. d. The engineering report must identify all potential sources of contamination and evaluate alternative control measures, which could be implemented to reduce or eliminate the potential for contamination, including treatment of the water source. In addition, water quality analyses for all regulated contaminants, performed by a laboratory certified by the DOH State Laboratories Division (https:Hhealth.hawaii.gov/sdwb/approvedIablist/), must be submitted as part of the report to demonstrate compliance with all drinking water standards. Additional parameters may be required by the Director for this submittal or additional tests required upon his or her review of the information submitted. e. All sources of public water systems must undergo a source water assessment, which will delineate a source water protection area. This process is preliminary to the creation of a source water protection plan for that source and activities which will take place to protect the drinking water source. f. Projects proposing to develop new public water systems or proposing substantial modifications to existing public water systems must receive approval by the Director prior to construction of the proposed system or modification. These projects include treatment, storage, and distribution systems of public water systems. The approval authority for projects owned and operated by a County Board or Department of Water or Water Supply has been delegated to them. AGENCIES AND PROJECT OWNERS November 27, 2020 Page 3 g. All public water systems must be operated by certified distribution system and water treatment plant operators as defined by HAR Chapter 11-25, entitled "Rules Relating to Certification of Public Water System Operators." h. All projects which propose the use of dual water systems or the use of a non- potable water system in proximity to an existing drinking water system to meet irrigation or other needs must be carefully designed and operated these systems to prevent the cross- connection of these systems and prevent the possibility of backflow of water from the non-potable system to the drinking water system. The two (2) systems must be clearly labeled and physically separated by air gaps or reduced pressure principle backflow prevention devices to avoid contaminating the drinking water supply. In addition, backflow devices must be tested annually to assure their proper operation. Further, all non-potable spigots and irrigated areas should be clearly labeled with warning signs to prevent the inadvertent consumption on non-potable water. Compliance with HAR Chapter 11-21, entitled "Cross-Connection and Backflow Control" is also required. i. All projects which propose the establishment of a potentially contaminating activity (as identified in the Hawaii Source Water Assessment Plan) within the source water protection area of an existing source of water for a public water supply should address this potential and activities that will be implemented to prevent or reduce the potential for contamination of the drinking water source. For further information concerning the application of capacity, new source approval, operator certification, source water assessment, backflow/cross-connection prevention or other regulated public water system programs, please contact the Safe Drinking Water Branch Engineering Section at (808) 586-4258 or email sdwb(a-)_doh.hawaii.gov. 2. Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program a. Injection wells used for the subsurface disposal of wastewater, sewage effluent, or surface runoff are subject to environmental regulation and permitting under HAR Chapter 11-23 entitled "Underground Infection Control." The DOH's approval must be first obtained before any injection well construction commences. A UIC permit must be issued before any injection well operation occurs. b. Authorization to use an injection well is granted when a UIC permit is issued to the injection well facility. The UIC permit contains discharge and operation limitations, monitoring and reporting requirements, and other facility management and operational conditions. A complete UIC permit application form found at https:Heha- cloud.doh.hawaii.gov/epermit/Home/9034789e-2918-4f30-82a2-9a5940e467f2 is needed to apply for a UIC permit. c. A UIC permit can have a valid duration of up to five (5) years. Permit renewal is needed to keep an expiring permit valid for another term. d. The UIC line delineates the extent of our underground sources of drinking water and is used to define areas where certain types of injection wells are prohibited. The UIC line is plotted on official UIC maps available for review at SDWB or by contacting the UIC program. Online interpretations of the UIC line maps exists and should be used with AGENCIES AND PROJECT OWNERS November 27, 2020 Page 4 caution as they are not the official maps. One website hosting an interpretation of the UIC line map is at the following: https:Hgeoportal.hawaii.gov/datasets/4597dde2703a4e539f5l 588531 e48101 20 e. If your project involves the construction of an injection well, you must first obtain the DOH's written approval to construct the injection well before any construction commences. The primary purpose of HAR, Chapter 11-23 is to protect underground sources of drinking water from injection well contamination. Written approval is obtained by filing an application for a UIC permit. You may submit your permit application via electronic filing (preferred method) through the DOH website at http://eha cloud.hawaii.gov/epermit or submit a hard copy permit application to: Safe Drinking Water Branch Uluakupu Bldg. 4 2385 Waimano Home Road, Suite 110 Pearl City, Hawaii 96782-1400 f. Areas mauka of the UIC line are considered to overlie underground sources of drinking water. Therefore, no new subclass A injection wells, such as sewage injection wells that receive greater than 1,000 gallons per day, will be allowed to be constructed. g. New sewage injection wells have been further prohibited effective July 5, 2018. Hawaii Revised Statutes 340E-2(e) states "The director shall promulgate regulations establishing an underground injection control program. Such program shall prohibit any underground injection which is not authorized by a permit issued by the director; provided that the director shall not issue permits for the construction of sewage wastewater injection wells unless alternative wastewater disposal options are not available, feasible, or practical," h. New storm water drainage injection well construction must be sited beyond one-quarter mile of a drinking water well. If you intend to construct a drinking water well, be careful to site all drainage injection wells at least one-quarter mile away from the drinking water source well. For further information about the UIC permit and the UIC Program, please contact UIC staff at (808) 586-4258 or email at sdwb(a)doh.hawaii.gov. 3. Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Program The Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) is a federally-capitalized loan program that provides low interest loans to regulated community water systems in the State of Hawaii for their drinking water infrastructure projects. If you would like more information regarding DWSRF eligibility, financing options, etc., you may visit the DWSRF website at https:Hhealth.hawaii.gov/sdwb/drinking-water-state-revolving-fund/ or contact Ms. Joan Corrigan at moan.corrigan(a)doh.hawaii.gov. AGENCIES AND PROJECT OWNERS November 27, 2020 Page 5 4. Private Water Wells a. WARNING! As the owner of a privately-owned well, you should NOT assume that water from your well is safe for consumption. It is your responsibility to make sure that your well water is safe to drink. The only way to do this is to have your well regularly tested for bacteriological and chemical contaminants. b. There are no regulations controlling water quality in private wells serving individual residences as there are for public water systems (public or privately-owned utilities supplying water to 25 or more people or 15 service connections). In other words, there are no enforceable limits for contaminants and no requirements for regular testing. Private wells are often found in rural areas, where many activities such as onsite wastewater disposal can contaminate the ground water. c. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Recommendations: The EPA recommends that private well owners test their well water each year for such contaminants as Total Coliform bacteria, Nitrates, as well as any other contaminants that may be of concern in your area. More frequent testing may be appropriate if you suspect a problem. EPA also suggests that you consider testing for pesticides, organic chemicals, and heavy metals before using it for the first time. Please refer to the EPA website on Private Drinking Water Wells at http://www.ei)a.gov/i)rivatewells. d. Other Contaminants: Water testing can be very expensive. It is important that you spend time to identify what other potential contaminants may be of concern. Please refer to the EPA website on Private Drinking Water Wells for more information. Be aware of what and how you use and dispose of household and garden chemicals. Also determine the location of nearby septic tanks or cesspools, and agricultural or industrial activities in the area. General information on known chemical contamination of ground water in Hawaii can be found at the DOH website http://health.hawaii.gov/sdwb/qroundwater-contamination-viewer. e. Laboratories: Whenever possible, utilize a laboratory that is certified or approved for the specific drinking water tests and carefully follow their instructions for collecting, storing, and transporting the samples. Be sure to ask the lab to use EPA approved methods for drinking water analysis. A list of Drinking Water Laboratories Certified or Approved by the Hawaii Department of Health, State Laboratories Division can be found at httos:Hhealth.hawaii.gov/sdwb/approvedIablist/. As lab certification status changes constantly, confirm their status when you contact the lab. Please note that the list is limited to currently regulated contaminants in public water systems. f. Results: Once the lab provides you with the test results, you will be in a better position to determine if your well water is safe to drink or what contaminant you need to treat for. Generally, you should compare the results with Federal (https://www.epa.gov/ground- water-and-drinking-water/national-primary-drinking-water-regulations) and State (http://health.hawaii.gov/sdwb/files/2014/07/MCL-Fct-2014-07-10.pdf) Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) drinking water standards. Where your test results are greater than the Federal or State maximum contaminant levels, your well water should be considered as unsafe for consumption.

According to the subject Special Permit and SMA Use Permit Amendment Application, Ahu Pohaku Hoomaluhia LLC proposes to increase the number of guest rooms from 16 to 36 by constructing 20 additional rooms at Hawaii Island Retreat. The Retreat is situated on five acres of a 14.5-acre parcel. The previously approved 16-room Retreat has been fully built, which consists of a main building with eight guest rooms, five yurts and three single-story guest hales. Each guest hale consists of approximately 400 square feet or less in floor area and 15 feet in height. The main building, which was designated for seminars, exercise/yoga room, library, dining room, commercial kitchen and related Planning Dept. Exhibit 9 Mr. Zendo Kern December 22, 2022 Page 2 activities, has a floor area of approximately 15,000 square feet and a height of less than 30 feet. As required by Condition No. 5 of the Special Permit No. 1117, at least three of the five-acre area is being used for the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, Ti,plumeria groves, medicinal plants, herbs and flowers. The additional 20 hales, with approximately 400 square feet in floor area each, will be situated within the existing gardens and orchards. The estimated cost of the additional 20 hales is $1,800,000. The subject site is designated Zone X, areas determined to be outside the 500-year flood plain on the Flood Insurance Rate Map. The Office of Planning and Sustainable Development(OPSD) has reviewed the subject application for amendments to Special Permit No. 1117 and SMA Use Permit No. 417, and has the following comments to offer: 1. The OPSD finds that the Special Permit Amendment increases the intensity and scope of commercial activity on State Agricultural District land at the expense of lands currently devoted to active agricultural use. The OPSD is concerned that this amendment will undermine one of the key reasons that the Special Permit(Special Permit No. 1117; Docket No. SPP-01-000006)was approved in 2001, and result in more, higher-value non-farm uses in the Agricultural District, which is contrary to the objective of Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) Chapter 205, with the following analysis: The Applicant's parcel encompasses 25.44 acres with a portion along the coastline within the State Conservation District. The portion of the parcel within the State Agricultural District appears to encompass 14.5 acres, hence the need to obtain a Special Permit for non-permitted uses. The County of Hawaii Planning Commission approved a Special Permit in 2001 for five acres to allow the establishment of the wellness retreat. The Applicant seeks to amend the Special Permit to allow the addition of 20 new dwelling units to the currently permitted 16 structures and locate these units on the three acres of land previously designated for agricultural use. Furthermore, Figure 4 of the Application shows the existing retreat structures and the proposed new structures spread out over the entire 14.5-acre lot. The Applicant should clarify the size and boundaries of the Special Permit Amendment area and state whether the Amendment would also increase the area of the Special Permit area from five acres to 14.5 acres. Pursuant to HRS § 205-6, county planning commissions may permit certain "unusual and reasonable uses"within the Agricultural and Rural Districts other than those for which the district is classified. The guidelines for determining "unusual and reasonable"uses are established in Hawaii Administrative Rules, § 15-15-95, and one of the guidelines is that the use shall not be contrary to the objectives of HRS, Chapters 205 and 205A, and the rules of the State Land Use Commission. Mr. Zendo Kern December 22, 2022 Page 3 In its August 14, 2001, letter approving the Special Permit, the County of Hawaii Planning Commission was acutely aware that the primary purpose of the Agricultural District under Chapter 206 is to promote long-term agricultural use of Hawaii's agricultural lands and concerned that the proposed retreat includes agricultural uses. There are numerous references in the permit enabling the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. "In the final analysis, approval of the proposed retreat will promote the use of important agricultural lands within the project site rather than preserving the current fallow conditions of these vital lands." (Special Permit Amendment Application Exhibit A,pg. 13). The Commission's concern in 2001 is also evidenced by the imposition of a condition that required an agricultural plan for the project that includes the cultivation of a minimum of three acres of land within the 5-acre project site. (Exhibit A,pg. 15.) The Applicant is aware of the "unusual and reasonable"use requirement and refers to it directly in their proposed Special Permit Amendment. The application includes the following statement: "More importantly, however, the project will result in the more intensive agricultural use. The project should result in a more intensive agricultural use of the subject site, while fostering hands-on learning of agricultural practices." (Application, pg. 14.) The Applicant seeks to significantly increase the commercial use of the site and plans to locate the additional 20 dwelling units on the lands that the Hawaii County Planning Commission previously required be set aside for agricultural use. (Application, Figure 4.) This appears to violate Condition 5 of the Special Permit. It is also questionable whether the agricultural use will be"intensified"when the addition of these 20 structures actually reduces the amount of land available for agriculture. Generally, besides increasing the quantity of agricultural lands, another indicator of"intensified" agricultural use would be an increase in the number of jobs needed to farm the land. However, while the Applicant states that three acres are devoted to fruit, vegetable, and herb cultivation and that the remainder of the 14.5 acres in the Agricultural District are used for cattle pasture and orchards, the number of additional workers devoted entirely to agricultural activities is unclear. 2. According to the subject request, page 9, the county zoning designation of the site is Agricultural (A-20a), and the subject property is considered non-conforming relative to the area. Please note that the SMA permit regulates permissible land uses that are already allowed by land use policies including zoning designations, county general plans, and community development plans. No development shall be approved with a SMA permit unless the authority has first found that the development is consistent with the county general plan, community plan, and zoning,pursuant to HRS § 205A-26 SMA guidelines. 3. Construction of 10 of new additional 20 units will commence no later than 18 months after approval, and the remaining 10 units will be added approximately five to six years after Mr. Zendo Kern December 22, 2022 Page 4 approval. The application for amendments to SMA Use Permit(SMA 01-000003)No.417 should address whether SMA Use Permit No.417, which was granted on August 14,2001, is expired or has any time restrictions. In addition, the proposed amendments exceed the scope of the original plan and may result in significant modifications to SMA Use Permit No. 417, including cumulative impacts in density and intensity of use of land, which will require a new SMA Use Permit or new conditions,pursuant to the county SMA rules as amended. 4. The proposed development is located within a shoreline parcel. The applicant shall consult with the County of Hawaii Planning Department for the requirement and determination of shoreline setbacks for all new structures and activities. 5. The application shall provide site-specific mitigation measures and/or updates to the public access plan originally submitted to the County of Hawaii Planning Department to ensure that the existing public access to and along the shoreline, including parking, will be protected and maintained from the new additional development. 6. In enacting Act 224, Session Laws of Hawaii 2005, the legislature found that light pollution in Hawaii's coastal areas and artificial lighting illuminating the shoreline and ocean waters can be disruptive to avian and marine life. The exterior lighting and lamp posts associated with the existing and proposed development shall be cut-off luminaries to provide the necessary shielding to mitigate potential light pollution in the coastal areas, and lessen possible seabird strikes. No artificial light, except as provided in HRS §§ 205A- 30.5(b) and 205A-71(b), shall be directed to travel across the property boundaries toward the shoreline and ocean.

HDOT has the following comments: Airports Division (HDOT-A) 1. The proposed retreat is approximately 3.72 miles from the property boundary of Upolu Airport(UPP). All projects within 5 miles from Hawaii State airports are advised to read the Technical Assistance Memorandum (TAM)for guidance with development and activities that may require further review and permits. The TAM can be viewed at this link: http://files.hawaii.gov/dbedt/op/docs/TAM-FAA-DOT-Airports_08-01-2016.pdf. 2. The project site is approximately 19,959 feet from the end of Runway 25 at UPP. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)regulation requires the submittal of FAA Form 7460-1 Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 14,Part 77.9, if the construction or alteration is within 20,000 feet of a public use or military airport which exceeds a 100:1 surface from any point on the runway of each airport with its longest runway more than 3,200 feet. Construction equipment and staging area Planning Dept. Exhibit 10 Mr. Zendo Kern STP 8.3513 December 13, 2022 Page 2 heights,including heights of temporary construction cranes, shall be included in the submittal. The form and criteria for submittal can be found at the following website: https:Hoeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/extemal/portalisp- 3. Due to the project's proximity to UPP,the applicant and future users should be aware of potential single event noise from aircraft operations. There is also a potential for fumes, smoke,vibrations, odors, etc.,resulting from occasional aircraft flight operations over or near the project. These incidences may increase or decrease over time and are dependent on airport operations. 4. If a solar energy photovoltaic (PV) system is going to be installed,be aware that PV systems located in or near the approach path of aircrafts can create a hazardous condition for pilots due to possible glint and glare reflected from the PV panel array. If glint or glare from the PV array creates a hazardous condition for pilots,the owner of the PV system shall be prepared to immediately mitigate the hazard upon notification by the HDOT-A and/or FAA. The FAA requires a glint and glare analysis for all solar energy PV systems near airports. The www.sandia.gov/glare website has information and guidance with the preparation of a glint and glare analysis. A separate FAA Form 7460-1 will be necessary for the solar energy PV system. After the FAA determination of the Form 7460-1 glint and glare analysis, a copy shall be provided to the HDOT-A by the owner of the solar energy PV system. Solar energy PV systems have also been known to emit radio frequency interference (RFI)to aviation-dedicated radio signals,thereby disrupting the reliability of air-to-ground communications. Again,the owner of the solar energy PV system shall be prepared to immediately mitigate the RFI hazard upon notification by the HDOT-A and/or FAA. Highways Division (HDOT-HWY) The HDOT-HWY has reviewed the Special Permit Amendment application and has determined that based on the information provided,the proposed project does not appear to significantly impact the State highway system. Therefore, HDOT-HWY has no comments. If there are any questions,please contact Mr. Blayne Nikaido of the HDOT Statewide Transportation Planning Office at(808) 831-7979, or via email at blayne.h.nikaido(ahawaii.gov. Sincerely, EDWIN H.

TSUJI, Land Administrator Land Division FROM: LAINIE BERRY, Wildlife Program Manager Division of Forestry and Wildlife SUBJECT: Division of Forestry and Wildlife Comments for the Special Management Area Use Permit (SMA) Application to Amend Special Permit No. 1117 Requesting an Increase in the Number of Guest Rooms at Hawaii Island Retreat The Department of Land and Natural Resources,Division of Forestry and Wildlife(DOFAW)has received your request for comments for the SMA Application(PL-SMA-2022-000018)to amend the Special Permit No. 1117 (Docket No. SPP-0 1-000006) from the County of Hawaii on behalf of Ahu Pohaku Ho`omaluhia LLC for the subject parcel located in Hanaula,North Kohala,on the island ofHawai`i;TMK: (3)5-4-009:014.The proposed project consists of expanding a 16-room permaculture and wellness retreat situated on a 5+ acre portion of a 14.5-acre parcel to 36,400-square feet, guest rooms or hale. The State listed Hawaiian Hoary Bat or`Ope`ape`a(Lasiurus cinereus semotus) could potentially occur at or in the vicinity of the project and may roost in nearby trees. Any required site clearing should be timed to avoid disturbance to bats during their birthing and pup rearing season (June 1 through September 15). During this period woody plants greater than 15 feet(4.6 meters)tall should not be disturbed,removed,or trimmed. Barbed wire should also be avoided for any construction because bats can become ensnared and killed by such fencing material during flight. Artificial lighting can adversely impact seabirds that may pass through the area at night by causing them to become disoriented. This disorientation can result in their collision with manmade structures or the grounding of birds. For nighttime work that might be required,DOFAW recommends that all lights used be fully shielded to minimize the attraction of seabirds. Nighttime work that requires outdoor lighting should be avoided during the seabird fledging season,from September 15 through December 15,when young seabirds make their maiden voyage to sea. Permanent lighting also poses a risk of seabird attraction, and as such should be minimized or eliminated to protect seabird flyways and preserve the night sky. For illustrations and guidance related to seabird-friendly light styles that also protect seabirds and the dark starry skies of Hawaii please visit https://dlnr.hawaii.gov/wildlife/files/2016/03/DOC439.pdf. State-listed waterbirds such as the Hawaiian stilt (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), Hawaiian coot (Fulica alai), Hawaiian Duck(Arras wyvilliana), and Hawaiian Goose (Branta sandvicensis) could potentially occur at or in the vicinity of the proposed project site. It is against State law to harm or harass these species. If any of Planning Dept. Exhibit 11 these species are present during construction,all activities within 100 feet(30 meters)should cease and the bird or birds should not be approached. Work may continue after the bird or birds leave the area of their own accord. If a nest is discovered at any point,please contact the Hawaii Island Branch DOFAW Office at(808)974-4221. The State listed Hawaiian Hawk or `Io (Buteo solitarius) may occur in the project vicinity. DOFAW recommends that surveys of the area be conducted by a qualified biologist to ensure no Hawaiian Hawk nests are present if trees are to be cut. `lo nests may be present during the breeding season from March to September. The project area is within the range of the State listed Blackburn's Sphinx Moth(Manduca blackburni)or BSM. Larvae of BSM feed on many nonnative hostplants, which includes tree tobacco (Nicotiana glauca), that grow in disturbed soil. We recommend contacting the Hawaii Island Branch DOFAW office at(808) 974-4221 for further information about where BSM may be present and whether a vegetation survey should be conducted to determine the presence of plants preferred by BSM DOFAW recommends removing plants less than one meter in height or during the dry season to avoid harm to BSM If you intend to either remove tree tobacco over one meter in height or to disturb the ground around or within several meters of these plants,they must be thoroughly inspected by a qualified entomologist for the presence of BSM eggs and larvae. DOFAW recommends using native plant species for landscaping that are appropriate for the area;i.e.,plants for which climate conditions are suitable for them to thrive, plants that historically occurred there, etc. Please do not plant invasive species. DOFAW also recommends referring to www.planipono.org for guidance on the selection and evaluation of landscaping plants and to determine the potential invasiveness of plants proposed for use in the project. DOFAW recommends minimizing the movement of plant or soil material between worksites. Soil and plant material may contain detrimental fungal pathogens (e.g., Rapid `Ohi`a Death),vertebrate and invertebrate pests (e.g., Little Fire Ants, Coqui Frogs, etc.), or invasive plant parts (e.g., African Tulip, Octopus Tree, Trumpet Tree,etc.)that could harm our native species and ecosystems. We recommend consulting the Big Island Invasive Species Committee (BIISC) at(808) 933-3340 to help plan,design, and construct the project, learn of any high- risk invasive species in the area, and ways to mitigate their spread. All equipment, materials, and personnel should be cleaned of excess soil and debris to minimize the risk of spreading invasive species. We appreciate your efforts to work with our office for the conservation of our native species. These comments are general guidelines and should not be considered comprehensive for this site or project. It is the responsibility of the applicant to do their own due diligence to avoid any negative environmental impacts. Should the scope of the project change significantly, or should it become apparent that threatened or endangered species may be impacted,please contact our staff as soon as possible. If you have any questions,please contact Myrna N.Girald P6rez, Protected Species Habitat Conservation Planning Associate at (808) 265-3276 or myna. ig rald- perezkhawaii.gov.

This letter provides the State Historic Preservation Division's (SHPD) review of the subject Amendment to a proposed Special Management Area (SMA) Permit Application. The SHPD received the current subject submittal on September 8, 2022. It included a document titled, "AMENDMENT to SPECIAL MANAGEMENT AREA (SMA)PERMIT No.417 and SPECIAL PERMIT(SPP)No. 1117."The applicants are seeking an amendment of the Special Management Area Use Permit(SMA 00-003)No. 415 and a Special Permit(SPP 01-006)No. 117 that are associated with the project parcel; SHPD does not have a record of reviewing these permits. SHPD requested additional information via HICRIS on September 15, 2022 and received the information on September 29, 2022. The amendment would facilitate the expansion of an existing wellness retreat from a 16-room retreat to a 36-room retreat.The project area consists of a 5.00-acre portion of the 25.44 parcel. The amendment document submitted in support of the current project indicates that portions of the current project parcel were impacted by previous ground-disturbing activities associated with sugarcane cultivation, pasture use, and the development of the existing wellness retreat.The document also indicates that Haun&Associates conducted an archaeological inventory survey (AIS) that included the current project area. No historic properties were identified within the then-project area and the negative findings were presented in an archaeological assessment (AA) report (Haan 2001). On September 15, 2022, SHPD requested and received a copy of the AA report on September 29, 2022. The AA indicates that the then-project area includes the current project area and that portions of the current project area were previously impacted by sugarcane activities. A review of SHPD records indicates that the subject project parcel was included in a previous project review (Log No. 2006.2204, Doc. No. 0607JT10) that resulted in a determination of "no historic properties affected." Additionally,historic aerial imagery (1965) indicates that portions of the subject project area have been previously impacted by land clearing activities and sugarcane cultivation. Additionally, contemporary aerial imagery indicates that the proposed project area has been impacted by the development of the existing wellness retreat. Thus, it is unlikely that any unidentified historic properties remain intact within the current project area. SHPD has no objections to the approval of the permit amendment. Pursuant to HAR §13-284-7(e),when the SHPD agrees that the action will not affect any significant historic properties, this is the SHPD's written concurrence and historic preservation review ends. The historic preservation review process is ended. The permit issuance process ma proceed. Planning Depi. Exhibit 12 Mr.Kern 10/05/2022 Page 2 Attach to permit: In the unlikely event that historic properties such as lava tube openings,concentrations of artifacts, structural remains or human skeletal remains are found during construction activities please cease work in the immediate vicinity of the find, protect the find from additional disturbance, and contact the State Historic Preservation Division at(808)933-7651.

Be advised that 44CFR, Chapter 1, Subchapter B, Part 60 reflects the minimum standards as set forth by the NFIP. Local community flood ordinances may stipulate higher standards that can be more restrictive and would take precedence over the minimum NFIP standards. The owner of the project property and/or their representative is responsible to research the Flood Hazard Zone designation for the project. Flood zones subject to NFIP requirements are identified on FEMA's Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM). The official FIRMS can be accessed through FEMA's Map Service Center(msc.fema.gov). Our Flood Hazard Assessment Tool (FHAT) (http://gis.hawaiinfip.org/FHAT) could also be used to research flood hazard information.

IPaC has been used by continental USFWS offices to provide official species lists and avoidance and minimization guidance since 2017. Using IPaC expedites the process for species list distribution. Obtaining a species list in IPaC is relatively straightforward and takes minimal time to complete. Step by step instructions are included below. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the Act, the accuracy of your species list should be verified after 90 days. New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change the species list. Verification can be completed by visiting the IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and implementation. An updated list may be requested through the IPaC system by completing the same process used to obtain the initial species list. We hope this process provides efficiencies to our partners in obtaining a species list. For federal action agencies, it also opens additional IPaC functionality that the PIFWO office is still working on, such as the use of Determination Keys for informal section 7 programmatic consultations. We will let our agency partners know when that functionality becomes available. If you have questions about a species list obtained through the IPaC system or need assistance in completing an IPaC species list request,please contact the Service at 808-792-9400 or via email at pifwo admin(a,fws.gov.

I am writing regarding planning consultant Sidney Fuke's letter to me on November 25 regarding the filed amendment to SMA 01-000003 and SPP 01-00006. My interest in this matter is clearly distinguishable from the general public. l am impacted detrimentally by the existing operations of Hawaii Island Retreat and will be further impacted by the proposed expansion. The applicant's property is accessed via a dirt road that runs across my property (via an easement) for more than 100 yards. The road is on the northeast side of my property, windward of our home. The Hawaii Island Retreat guests do not consistently observe reasonable speeds while driving on the road. The noise of speeding cars and work trucks on the bumpy road is constant. Additionally, there are many curves and hills blocking the view along the roadway. Despite deliberate, slow, careful driving on our part there have been several close calls with speeding drivers. In two cases we were forced off the road by careless drivers near the crest of the hill just above our driveway-these were both drivers using the road to access the retreat. Additionally, the road is often dry and dusty. The constant traffic to and from the retreat grinds the road surface into a fine powder_ Huge plumes of fugitive dust blow across our entire property from the road and into our home, kitchen, bedrooms.. etc. Recently we built a 6' stone wall along the road in an attempt to mitigate the dust. It was a very costly and time-consuming project. It helps, but it is by no means a cure. More than doubling the capacity at the retreat will make this situation much worst. The only reasonable answer is to have the road paved to eliminate the dust and to install speed bumps to keep the visitor's speed reasonable. Please acknowledge receipt of this communication. I can also be reached at jc@simplertc.com. Jonathan hristensen Planning Dept. Exhibit 16 December 27, 2022 To: Michael Vitousek, Chair Leeward Planning Commission From: Growth Management Group North Kohala Community Development Plan Subject: Ahu Pohaku Ho'omaluhia LLC Amendments to PL-SMA 2022-000018 and SPL-SPP 2022-000018 for TMK 5-4-009:014, North Kohala Aloha Chair Vitousek and Commissioners, The Growth Management Group of the North Kohala Community Development Plan Advisory Group discussed the above items 1 and 2 on your agenda at its monthly meeting December 14, 2022. Ms Jean Sunderland and her representative attended the meeting to explain the intent to expand the number of units available at the Hawaii Island Retreat. She explained that all existing structures are covered by county permits. The new hale units will be within the 5-acre allocation for the existing SPP and SMA. They will be scattered among two existing clusters of trees and therefore not obtrusive. The retreat currently employs 12 full-time employees and three paid agricultural interns. The Public Access Grant of Easement for vehicle and pedestrian use was recorded in 2009 and includes an adjoining coastal property. The finding of the group is that the amended SMA and SPP will benefit the community in creating additional jobs, reflect the district's agricultural nature, and provide a distinctly Kohala experience for visitors and retreat attenders. Because the Public Access Agreement is one of the first approved in Kohala, the wording may not be as binding to the county as the current wording proscribed by the Planning Department. The group decided to request that the Kohala Community Access Group, also a part of the NKCDP, review the plan to suggest any changes, if needed. Otherwise, we support your passage of the amendments to the SPP and SMA permits. Toni Withington, Acting Chair Planning Dept.

McIntyre PhD and Cam McIntyre MD 54-278 Honopueo Road Kapa'au, HI RE: Public Testimony for AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA LLC Application for amendments fo Special Management Area #417 and Amendment to Special Use Permit#1117 Date: 11212023 This email is to give public testimony to the Leeward Planning Commisioners - asking them to strongly REFUSE the application for amendments to SPA #417 and SUP #1117 due to the enormous burden their retreat expansion from 16 to 36 hotel rooms will have on increased road use on the current, unsafe, 112 mile private Maluhia Road connecting Akoni Pule Highway to Pratt Rd and Lokahi Road. The construction and maintenance of Maluhia Road by Ahu Pohaku Hoomaluhia LLC created years of litigation and has been problematic for seventeen TMKs surrounding lots due to non- compliance of the LLC's Hawaiian Retreat Center not adhering to their special use permit. (see attached pictures of blind curves and culvert at the bottom on Maluhia) In their Special Use permit #1117 it states the Maluhia road should be 20 ft wide. The pavement is only 15 feet wide...and the remaining 5 ft was to be maintained by the commercial retreat - AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA. This has not happened. The road is unsafe, steep, with poor signage and lots of water lines on the easements. Special Use permit#1117 requires an insurance policy for liability for Maluhia and public access to shoreline. Only recently a public access sign has gone up due to the proposed sale of AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA - retreat center for an approximately 15 million dollar price tag which is still in negotiation with Hawaii Life Reality. Given a proposed sale the owners need hotel room expansion on the 5 acres they are carving out for sale at this price. The Hawaiian Retreat Center as a commercial venture and has only Maluhia Road to access their hotel from the highway...they need to bear the cost of maintaining this road for commercial use. Maluhia Road would be much safer if the county would provide oversite on their special use permit#1117 which requires AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA to maintain/mow the sides of the Maluhia Road. Planning Dep . i Exhibit 18 Again I request you vote no for these amendments and review the special use requirements and help enforce them to keep our private Maluhia Road safe for the many community members that use this road. 2 .6 s a? •r+ 4 rXA'Yy r'f, t ii(�i•7f�'S .1 p�'�r" a ' t w r � ��`+F "W. 4�v 7 t i N' I.'a , Y '�"a.."-� • .54 - �t I y 4 t r I' II - "� l f ,•,,` .

As a disclosure, I am a Broker-in-Charge and Director, Conservation and Legacy Lands with Hawaii Life Real Estate, and in this capacity the members of Ahu Pohaku Ho`omaluhia LLC are my clients. I am writing, however, as a member of the Kohala Community who is and has been an active volunteer with multiple community groups beginning with my participation in the creation of the 2008 North Kohala Community Development Plan - as a member of the logistics team doing community interviews in 2006, and as a focus group member working with the consultant and Steering Committee in 2007. 1 am currently part of a working group for the "Kohala Community Plan", an effort to recreate the community input process used for our 2008 CDP, and work with existing CDP subcommittees to update goals from the 2008 plan. From our initial "talk story" sessions and meetings with the subcommittees, we are currently hearing a very different community opinion around facilities such as Hawaii Island Retreat than the sentiment reflected in the 2008 NKCDP. Page 20 of the 2008 NKCDP addressed community concern over the number of special permits issued in the 2000s, of which 10 were for overnight accommodations: One of the issues that has raised the most concern with Kohala residents is that of Special Permits, especially those that allow overnight accommodations, such as "retreats. " While it is true that 10 of the 17 Special Permits issued in the 2000s do allow overnight accommodations, 8 of those 10 are parcels owned by one owner (the New Moon Foundation). Therefore, the bigger problem may be those land owners who are allowing overnight visitors without the appropriate permits. Still, community sentiment is generally that Special Permits that allow large-scale overnight accommodations should not be approved, due to the negative impacts that such developments have on the area's limited infrastructure and small-town feel. The concern at the time was that the approved special permits would collectively equal a small hotel in excess of 300 rooms. Here are key points of what has changed since this was written in 2007: Planning Dept. 1 Exhibit 19 • Only two of the four landowners with special permits for overnight accommodations have completed the anticipated construction. One is the applicant with 16 rooms. The other is the "New Moon Foundation" property, now `tole under the ownership of Hawaii Community Foundation, consisting of 10 new bungalows and a 40-bed dorm (the renovated Girls School). Both of these entities serve primarily educational and non-profit groups rather than individual travelers. • Two of the four special permits have lapsed. One was for a camp housing 75 persons, on a parcel just mauka of Hawaii Island Retreat on Lokahi Road. The other was the Vipassana Hawaii planned retreat center of 100 rooms in Halawa. I was the listing agent for both of these properties when they sold to new owners who allowed the permits to lapse. • The Kohala Club Hotel, located at the turn-off to Hawaii Island Retreat from Akoni Pule Highway, is being converted into a medical facility, a loss of 9 rooms primarily booked by local families. • Licensed accomodations in Hawi town include the Kohala Village Inn with18 rooms, the Plantation House B&B with five rooms and Puakea Ranch with four guest cottages. • The majority of the overnight visitors to Kohala are being housed in hosted short term vacation rentals (transient accommodations rentals). Hosted rentals were required to obtain licenses in 2018. Proposed regulation of unhosted rentals will mean most of those in operation in Kohala will not qualify and will no longer be able to operate for a variety of reasons: ag zoning, unpermitted construction, failure to have paid GET and TAT. In summary, the large-scale building of tourist accommodations feared by the community did not occur. The facilities offering overnight accommodations, including Hawaii Island Retreat, have proven to be good community partners. In the case of Hawaii Island Retreat, the `aina is in better shape and producing food as was intended as a condition of their permit; they host community fundraising events; and they maintain shoreline public access and steward cultural sites. Current Community sentiment as expressed in our Kohala Community Plan talk story sessions strongly favors concentrating visitor accommodations at the existing inns and retreats, as opposed to the proliferation of TARS. The business model of Hawaii Island Retreat is also in keeping with the broader emphasis on regenerative tourism across Hawaii. As a final observation, the Applicant has been proactive in presenting the proposed amendments in advance of this Commission hearing. Applicant met with the CDP Growth Management Subcommittee on December 14, 2022 to present the applications and answer questions. At that meeting Applicant agreed to also work with the CDP Community Access Group to review the terms of their grant of public access, which was one of the first in Kohala, to answer any concerns that group might have given that subsequent grants might have additional or different provisions preferred by the Community. Our Kohala Community Plan working group has as one of its goals the engagement of all stakeholders, so that future planning decisions for our community will be vetted through a more collaborative process than has been the case historically. We hope that encouraging landowners to engage more proactively as this Applicant has done will aid you as Commissioners in having the information you need to make informed decisions. 2 Thank you for your consideration.

(PI- SMA- 2022-000018). Special Permit(SPP 01-000006 and PL-SPP 202.22022-000018, Tax Map Key: 5-4-009:014 AND Application for an amendment to Special Permit No. 1117 Honorable Leeward Planning Commissioners, As people who use Maluhia Road as an easement to our farm, and as members of the Kohala community, we are against the proposed changes set forth in the applications cited above for the following reasons:. 1. Maluhia Road is unsafe.Adding more traffic is foolish. According to the applicant's permit, that road needs to be 20' wide. There are places where it is not, with steep cliffs preventing the 20' width. Along the west side are 5 drisco water lines, further preventing widening of the road. There is no road maintenance agreement among the 17 users of that easement. The overgrowth further exacerbates the blind curves on Maluhia Road. Maluhia Road is not fit for the current traffic, let alone increasing it as proposed. Two cars cannot pass on Maluhia Road. To our knowledge, the Retreat does not carry a current liability insurance policy for Maluhia Road. Are the neighbors/Maluhia easement grantees subject to liability for accidents on Maluhia Road'? The special permit stipulates that HIR cannot use Union Mill Road or go through Kamehameha Park, although they have used Union Planning Dept. t Exhibit 20 Mill for their Retreat on many occasions in the past. Another plan HIR had to ameliorate the Maluhia traffic was to use shuttle buses. That never happened. 2. Hawaii Island Retreat will be on the real estate market soon. According to a Hawaii Life realtor, Hawaii Island Retreat will soon be on the market for around $15-19,000,0(10. It appears that they want to add value to their real estate at the expense of the community. On 12/2.8/22, 1 spoke with Jessica Andrews, the planner in charge of this application. She was not aware of this fact. Why was this nut disclosed to the planner in charge`? 3. Much of the TMK is in a SMA and conservation zone.Where will the new building(s)be located'? There are already 3 buildings in the SMA that they use as their hotel/Retreat.How was this allowed'? They have also held wedding events in the restricted use zones. 4. They have not complied with the shoreline access condition of their special permit. It has been blocked off and re-routed. The Public Access signs on Akoni. Pule Hwy and Pratt Road were taken down for over a year and before that the signs were not always posted. They just put some of the Public Access signs up again and unlocked some of the public access gates recently,presumably so as to appear in compliance. 5. The entire Public Access should be walked by a planner with the attached public access doe and map as a reference(attached).Most alarming is that coastal public access going cast is blocked by what appears to by 4 hog wire fences that extend to the coastal cliffs (see attached map of eastern section). The most westerly fence has no gate(see attached photos). Two of the middle fences have gates near the coastline,but are burdened with billy goats and cattle at various times. Even if someone climbed the first fence at their peril on the cliff(and it appears that some people have done so), they would still have to chance the gauntlet of the livestock. It is hard to tell from a distance, but it appears that the fourth, most easterly fence has no gate,thus restricting coastal access through the adjacent Lot 22 from Lot 16. The coastal public access has been blocked with fencing for easily over 10 years. 6. Failure to comply with several conditions of SP NO. 1117. They have not been "good neighbors."The most glaring example (and there are many) is that the now defunct Honopueo Community Association members were forced to pay for Maluhia Road improvements that was required by the county for their Special Permit. None of the other owners have a special permit and could use that road as it was. H I R then sued the neighbors to get additional compensation for those improvements. There was no countersuit, and the Retreat got less than half (about$4500 per lot)of what they originally sought($10,000 per lot). 7. Will the shoreline public access be preserved after the PCRS?The Retreat is applying for another PCRS to restrict the Retreat to 5 acres and retain the other land that has the currently blocked shoreline public access on it. See attached photo, which is posted on Lokahi Road,NOT on Akoni Pule Hwy. The community should finally have the ENTIRE shoreline public access open, unburdened, accessible,and safe. 8. Where would they get the rater for this project? They only have a 5/8"water meter on Akoni Pule for county water. Thank you for attention to these longstanding concerns.

The Applicant's property is zoned AG 20,part of which is within the Special Management Area for coastal lands. It's my feeling that a hotel (even if it's described by applicant as a "retreat center") is not an appropriate use of these lands,violates the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance, makes my community less safe and puts a unsustainable strain on the community's infrastructure. I am strongly opposed to this application.

HIR has never lived up to its commitments and required mandates for infrastructure on Maluhia Road. 1- The surrounding agricultural lots that were a part of Honopueo Community Association (HCA) had much different needs and uses for Maluhia Rd. HIR had special commitments and requirements mandated for their SUP to build a hotel which set them apart from the rest of the community. 2- Not only did they not follow "a good neighbor" policy (required as one of the mandates of their SUP). They turned around and sued their neighbors to compel them to pay for their required improvements. Which still left us with a sub-standard road 3- The surrounding community has since paved all of Maluhia Rd. The cost was $140,000. 70% of this was paid for by the neighbors and 30% by HIR. This worked out well for HIR. HIR guest's, workers and the hotel mandated "public access" put a huge amount of traffic on this road and have no right to more than double the traffic on our community road. Even with the community's efforts this is still a sub- standard road especially with much of its use by visitors that are not use to driving on steep and cu roads. Planning Dept. `dat 14d a8 ty r Exhibit 22 DIMd_k��Read� FIM Mff 4- An example of "spin" on their plans is that adding 20 more rooms to the hotel would not increase the number of guests, just allow yoga retreats to have one guest per room. It should be assumed that the hotel will run at full capacity whenever it can. Jean Sunderland told community members 20 years ago that all guest would come and go in vans putting very little traffic on our road, this was not true then nor now. 5- Realtors made inquiries to past board members of Honopueo Community Association about the status of FICA. This inquiry was about the sale of HIR and if HIR was still part of HCA. The members of the Planning Commission are well aware of the huge problem of granting zoning and building applications that are just used to increase land value. Years later new owners request extensions due to no action on the granted permits which only increase the property value to the original owners. The next issue that the commission should focus on is the HIR mandate to provide public access to and along the shoreline. We have often found the gate to travel along the coast to be lock and there are fences that do not have gates which impedes those wanting to walk along the coast. As other ocean front neighbors also have mandated public access along this portion of the coastline. HIR originally purchased a large 54-acre piece which surrounded the small Lincoln burial lot. Years after all permits and mandates for HIR where issued, HIR purchased the Lincoln burial lot and used a PCRS to make two larger lots. Now they want to use another PCRS to take land away from the hotel parcel at the same time they want to double the site of the hotel. We own land that touches one of the lots which HIR proposed a PCRS on, there is no notification on Honopueo road that will be used if this PCRS is allowed to move forward. There is a requirement to post notification which was not done. The hotel property should not be allowed to be compressed onto 5 acres. We strongly urge this commission to deny the request to more than double the site of the hotel and we urge that the commission not allow the request for a PCRS. Mahalo for your attention to the surrounding neighbors' concerns.

Mahalo /s/ Cindy Freitas Araujo, Jaclyn From: Emily Sundman <emilysundman@hotmail.com> Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2023 12:54 PM To: LPCtestimony Subject: AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA LLC ( Formerly Robert Watkins and Jean Sunderland Good afternoon, I am writing in regards to the proposed rezoning and expansion of the Hawaiian Life Retreat (AHU POHAKU HOOMALUHIA LLC ( Formerly Robert Watkins and Jean Sunderland) from today's meeting. My apologies on missing the deadline, but I am very concerned about the expansion of the resort in this agricultural and family area given the ongoing issues the resort, their guests, and contractors currently cause. I have summarized these concerns below with specific examples. 1. Traffic usage of Maluhia Rd and Pratt Rd. Pratt road (currently unpaved) is a wonderful roadway providing safe travel for families and children to either walk or ride bicycles to avoid Akoni Pule hwy on their way to Kamehameha Park. Pratt rd and Maluhia are frequently used by families to safely access areas reached by Pratt rd while avoiding dangerous traffic. My family uses Pratt rd in order for our children to bicycle to school at Kohala Elementary. Unfortunately, I have personnaly nearly been hit by vehicles traveling at excessive speed on Pratt Rd that were on their way to Hawaii Life Resort on five separate occasions in the past 4 months. One time the vehicle nearly struck my nine-year-old son on his bicycle as he was pulled over on the side of the road. All of these individuals were either guests or contractors/employees of Hawaii Life Resort. I have seen several near accidents of other children who were safely traveling on the shoulder of Pratt Rd as well. 2. Wandering Tourists from the Resort. My family (including two small children) lives near the resort on Honopueo Rd. We have repeatedly had tourist in our yard, near our children playing outside. These tourists believed they should be allowed on my private property because it "seemed beautiful", and numerous tourist had been told by employees of the resort they can access my personal property to take photos or otherwise lounge outside. I cannot stress enough how upsetting this is given that I have small children who would be at risk of kidnapping from these people. Often, my children (playing feet from our home) have told me about the trespassers and I have had to run outside to investigate who these people are. Repeated calls to the resort has not improved the frequency of these trespassers. 3. Poor signage for resort and coastal access. Due to the poor signage provided by the resort to direct tourists both to their resort and for coastal access, particularly at the numerous turns to reach the resort across Maluhia and Pratt roads, many tourists have inadvertently ended up at various locations across Pratt and Honopueo Rd. Myself and many of my neighbors are fully invested in the agricultural needs of Kohala and have cattle and other livestock on these roads. I have frequently had to stop tourists from attempting to open gates to turn their cars around in, or otherwise harassing animals across fences. I hope my neighbors and my concerns regarding the safety of residents of Kohala, particularly our keiki to safely reach school and Kamehameha Park are taken into consideration and this proposal is rejected.

State Department of Health DOH DOH noted that the project must address and comply with applicable construction and post-construction regulations. These include control of fugitive dust and noise during and after construction. The applicant will adhere to those. Likewise, while there appears to be no need for an injection well to address on- site drainage, if one is needed, the appropriate Underground Injection Control permit will be secured prior to its installation. As the proposed area will occur in already disturbed area either used for the project or in the past for agricultural uses,the chances to unearth hazardous material appear slim. As such, a Phase I Environmental Study should not be necessary. Further a Solid Waste Management Plan has already been prepared and approved by the County. Water will be provided through the County's system. As such, the project will be serviced by clean potable water. Further, the site is located makai of the potable wells, and thus, impacts to any water source in the area should be negligible. State De artment of Health Wastewater Branch WB Currently, the project is serviced by four(4) septic tanks and soil absorption system that was reviewed and approved by the State DOH. The WB noted that due to the project's proximity to the ocean and soil condition, there could be impacts to the ocean.. However, it did not indicate what kind of system would be required. Planning Dept. Exhibit 28 Mr. Zendo Kern, Director December 26, 2022 Page 2 In either event,the applicant would like to continue use of the septic system approach; however, if that is deemed insufficient by the DOH-WB, the applicant will comply with its requirements. State Historic Preservation Division SHPD SHPD noted that all archaeological work had been conducted on the project. A such, it had no objections to the request, concluding that the "historic preservation review process is ended"and that"permit issuance process may proceed." State Department of Transportation DOT The Airports Division of the DOT outlined its construction and related requirements due to the project's proximity (approximately 3.72 miles) to the Upolu Airport. As with the initial construction of the project, the Applicant is mindful of any additional permitting, construction, and operational requirements. In that regard, the appropriate form (FAA Form 7460-1 Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration) will be submitted to the Airports Division. The guests have and will continue to be kept informed of the potential single event noise and related nuisance impacts from aircraft operations. To date, there have been no complaints from the project's guests. The project's energy requirement is currently being supplemented by a solar system. At this time, the applicant does not intend to construct additional panels. However, if it is determined that additional panels are needed or desired,the applicant will file the FAA Form 7460-I which will include the "glint and glare"analysis. Further, while very unlikely given the magnitude of the solar system, any mitigation required by either the DOT or FAA will be complied with. The Highways Division of the DOT noted that the project "does not appear to significantly impact the State highway system." US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) USFWS recommended that a species list of this area be developed to determine whether there would be any impacts to these species, and subsequently to see what kind of mitigation measures, if needed, need to be taken. It added that "Of particular concern may be increasing additional nighttime lighting and the effects associated with Hawaiian seabird fallout caused by night lighting." Mr. Zendo Kern, Director December 26, 2022 Page 3 As with other applications that are proximate to the coastline, a condition could be required to protect any seabirds (Hawaiian petrels and Newell' s shearwaters) in the vicinity of the property. These mitigations could be requiring any lighting to be fully shielded so that the bulb can only be seen from below bulb height; having the lights turned off when human activity is not occurring in the lighted area; and having the lights shielded. Cogpty Fire Department FD The FD required compliance with Chapter 18 of the State Fire Code and Chapter 26 of the Hawaii County Code relative to access and water supply. The access is sufficient to provide for emergency vehicles to get to and from the property. Further, there is potable water serving the site. It should be noted that during the Building Permit process, the FD must review and approve all permits. As such, in the event the FD requires additional improvements to address access and fire protection needs, they will be addressed and complied with. Coon Police Department PD The PD had no "comments or objections"to the request. Public Comment One of the surrounding property owners (Jonathan Christensen) had raised concerns regarding the condition of the access road. The applicant is in the process of discussing possible mitigation and its implementation schedule with Mr. Christensen and hopefully, an agreement can be reached in the very near future. We will update you on this. We trust that this response adequately addressed the comments to date. If not or should there be more, please feel free to contact me. Thank you very much. ncerel hoL�\ Planning Consultant Copy—Ms. Jean Sunderland via email jr� leSidneyFuke, Planning Cons�iltani P.O.Box 1345 •Hilo,Hawaii 96720 •Planning•variance•zoning Cell:(808)989-0640 •Subdivision•Land Use Permits E-mail:sidneyruke@gmail.com •Environmental Reports December 29, 2022 Mr. Zendo Kern, Director Planning Department COUNTY OF HAWAII 101 Pauahi Street Hilo, HI 96720 Dear Mr. Kern: Subject: Amendment to Special Permit(PL-SPP-2022-0000018; SPP 01-000006) Applicant—Abu Pohaku Ho`omaluhia, LLC North Kohala Hawaii TMK: 5-4-009: 014 This is in response to your staffs inquiry regarding use of the retreat for weddings and other special events as well as comments offered by the State Office of Planning and Sustainable Development(OP)regarding the subject matter. In the beginning,the applicant had on a few occasions held wedding and a few special events at the retreat. However, those occasions have been too disruptive of the retreat's mission and operations. As such, the retreat no longer makes its facility available for those special events. Relative to OP comments, OP notes that the request will "result in more, higher- value non farm uses in the Agricultural District. "Perhaps the site plan may not be clear, but the proposed structures and uses will occur within the 5-acre boundary of the existing Special Permit, an area that already had been considered agriculturally relinquished through the initial. Special Permit process. If the uses were to penetrate this area, then, OP's comments would be on point. I have attached a copy of the site plan which reflects the 5-acre area within the 14.5-acre parcel. Notwithstanding the above, while the principal agricultural activities occur outside the 5-acre area,there are still some agricultural activities within the 5-acre area. While there will be some diminution of agricultural activities within the 5-acre area as a result of the additional structures, the diminution should not be significant. The existing and proposed units are and will be nestled within existing gardens and orchards. Gardening and fanning are integral components of the retreat's values of health, wellbeing and peace. Clearly then, there is a symbiotic relationship between the retreat and on-going agricultural activities. For one, the agricultural component helps sustain the retreat both in its program and, at times, financially. Conversely, the importance of the agricultural program to the retreat incentivizes the retreat to also do things to support the agricultural activities. Planning Dept. Exhibit 29 Mr. Zendo Kern, Director December 29, 2022 Page 2 Thus, while there may not necessarily be an increase in the number of farm workers, the project should help sustain the existing (and possibly expand) agricultural activities. As noted in our response to the County Department of Water Supply, water usage has been high not so much because of the retreat but the agricultural activities. As such, to support the water needs of the agricultural activities, the applicant is in the process of constructing a non-potable well, a well which should come online within the next six (b)months. It is questionable whether that step would have been taken had it not been for the importance of the agricultural component to the retreat. Please do note that the additions will be rooms and not dwelling units. The rooms are not really designed to accommodate more people as much as enabling guests to have their privacy in a single versus a shared room. Most guests prefer single room but have had to be housed in a double occupancy room due to space limitation. The applicant is aware that the subject property is "non-conforming"relative to land area. And further, it is within the SMA and thus subject to the SMA requirements. As such, the requested amendments with appropriate supportive justifications relate to both the SMA and Special Permit. While a shoreline parcel, none of the proposed activities will occur within the shoreline setback area. Please note that there is a band of Conservation designated land immediately makai of the area of the existing and proposed improvements. A map of this band was provided earlier as part of the submittal and also attached herein. The public access plan has already been implemented and maintained by the applicant. Photos of the condition of the access will be provided under separate cover directly by the applicant. Finally, in our comments to the US Fish and Wildlife Service, we believe the matter of lighting was addressed. We trust that this response adequately addressed your staff and OP's comments. If not or should there be more,please feel free to contact me. Thank you very much. incerely.WN SIDNEY M.

The applicant shares DWS' philosophy that potable water is a most precious resource, and as such, appropriate water conservation measures should be taken. The guiding principle and thus operational focus of the applicant's retreat is consistent with that philosophy. It strives to promote sustainability by living and working with the land. In that regard, agricultural activities and conservation are important elements of the retreat. Admittedly, the water usage over the past few years has been higher than normal. This was due, in part, not so much for the habitable activities as much as the agricultural activities on the property. There were periodic droughts resulting in greater water usage to maintain the on-going agricultural activities on the subject as well as the adjoining property (TMK 5-4-009: 020). With the return of the rain over the past months, however, records should indicate a considerable reduction of the draw from the County water system. At any rate, to help address reduce the use of County water, the applicant installed sprinklers and drip lines. It is also in the process of constructing a non-potable well on its property to service the agricultural activities. Once it comes online within the next six (6) months, the existing irrigation system will draw its water from this non-potable well, resulting in a drastic reduction of water from the County's water system. The applicant believes that the additional 20 hale or rooms for a total of 36 rooms should not significantly add to the potable water demand. While it could, the additional rooms are not really designed to accommodate more people as much as enabling guests to have their privacy in single versus a shared room. Most guests prefer single room but have had to be housed in a double occupancy room due to space limitation. Planning Dept. Exhibit 30 Mr. Zendo Kern, Director December 29, 2022 Page 2 As noted above,the applicant has and wilt continue to take measures to accommodate DWS' request of having the applicant "implement water conservation measures to reduce water consumption. " Moving forward, the applicant will work with DWS to find other measures to monitor and further reduce its potable water consumption use. We trust that this response adequately addressed DWS' comments. If not or should there be more,please feel free to contact me. Thank you very much. Sincerely V6\W/4 SIDNEY M.

Me Ke Aloha O Ka Aina, Jeanne Sunderland, Owner/Co-Creator Hawaii Island Retreat 808-889-6336 Harmonious Blend of Elegance and Sustainability ---------- Forwarded message--------- From:Jean Sunderland <ieansunderland2@gmail.com> Date: Fri, Dec 30, 2022 at 11:20 AM Subject: Public access pics To:Jean Sunderland <ieansunderland2@gmail.com> Planning Dep;. Exhibit 31 1 Sent from my Whone 2 M { P U- �. a ' : --kj ��4 J 11 '41 �oY.1 1 J� Aw I r rk� Y,. p F �, r r� ti • °� WS Y '1 y � r ,s iN t7 t pr a. •r ail'7V- ..,��A" `66 R°• w 9 r hy ' � R� • WASTWATER REQUIREMENTS • despite numerous attempts, the applicant has not been successful in getting a response from Ms. Sina Pruder who heads the Wastewater Division of the State Department of Health. Accordingly, we cannot unequivocally identify what will be installed. Be that as it may, as noted in our earlier response to this matter, the State Department of Health is one of the reviewing agencies for the building permits. As such, compliance with its requirements is mandatory. Inasmuch as no direction has been provided by the State DOH at this point, the applicant will continue to operate on the premise that the additional septic system will be sufficient. This premise is due to the fact that the subject property is perched on a cliff nearly 150 feet above of the ocean and more than 300 feet from the top of the cliff. In the event the septic system is determined to be insufficient, the applicant believes that, short of a wastewater treatment plan, a reasonable alternative could be the installation of an anaerobic septic system, a system that is commonly used in environmentally sensitive areas. • ROAD IMPROVEMENTS after due consideration of comments from the neighbors, the applicant is willing to accept the following condition of the Special Permit and SMA Permit: "Prior to the issuance of any construction permits relating to the proposed improvements authorized through this amended Special Permit and Special Management Area permit, the applicant shall improve the vehicular access between the intersection of Pratt Road and Lokahi Road and the at least 10 feet inside the property line of TMK: 5-4-009-014 with a minimum 10 foot wide paved road and speed humps in accordance with the pertinent standards/guidelines of the County Department of Public Works for a private road and installation of speed humps. A barrier extending beyond both edges of the speed humps shall also be installed to avoid use of the unimproved section of the right-of-way as a passageway. The applicant, its assigns or heirs, shall also be responsible for maintenance of the proposed improvements within the private road and speed humps for the life of this Special Permit and Special Management Area Permit." There are several things to note about this proposed condition. Planning Daps. Exhibit 32 a. As you are aware, normally off-site improvements — if required as a condition — need to be in place prior to issuance of occupancy permit. In this case, however, the applicant is willing to have these done upfront — i.e., prior to issuance of any construction-related permits. b. Further, to avoid only the blacktopping of the road over the existing ground, there is specific definition of the type and level of road improvements of this 10-foot-wide paved road, using DPW's private road standard. In terms of the speed bumps, DPW's guidelines in terms of the distance/height are also being referenced, coupled with the inclusion of some sort of a barrier at both ends of the speed humps to minimize vehicles from driving on the edges to avoid the speed bumps. c. Finally, the applicant will also bear the maintenance responsibility of the proposed improvements for the life of the Special Permit and SMA Permit. RESPONSE TO PMEROY AND MACINTYRE LETTERS Public Access information Public access follows Maluhia Road to the parking lot at Hawaii Island Retreat. One walking pathway goes to the cliffs overlooking the ocean and one goes down the old cane road into the gulch, traveling from TMK:5-4-009-014 onto TMK:5-4-009-020, our farm. On the farm we raise cattle as well as other crops and we practice pasture management with pasture rotation. The public access trail on the farm goes through gates in our cattle fencing. By following the trail, one will come to the gates which may be closed but never locked. We do rotate cattle through these pastures, and inform guests and other visitors to watch the ground for cattle pies. The cattle are friendly and never dangerous. We have 8 signs designated where the public access trails lead. Initially we posted signs on the highway which were removed and replaced by the State Highway Department. Signs on the highway are maintained and regulated by the State Highway Department. Prior to COVID, there were approximately (8) SHORELINE PUBLIC ACCESS designated with signs in North Kohala. During early COVID when parks and beaches were closed,those signs (including ours) were removed. Maluhia Road At the time in 2003, when all the Lots that access Maluhia Road were purchased at a below market rate, it was required that an Association be formed. That Association was to be responsible for infrastructure. Some Lot owners as Ms Pomeroy believed they could use Pratt Road to Union Mill Road instead of Maluhia for access. On their property titles, Pratt Road is not listed as access, and consequently, the owner of the lot that included Pratt Road installed a locked gate to make sure that access was not available. We do not use nor have used Pratt road to Union Mill road nor can anyone use it. In the Association bylaws, Hawaii Island Retreat was to pay 25%of the cost of the road and the remaining Lots collectively pay 75%. Instead, we willingly paid 30%of the coast of establishing a 20 ft wide gravel road, Maluhia Road, and other lots paid 7%each. The Association then decided to add asphalt to Maluhia Road. We again paid 30% of that job, while other paid 7%each. With gravel shoulders, the road continues to be the original width. Each lot owner was responsible for installing their own water line and some chose to lay their water lines on top of the road instead of burying them. These Lot owners need to either bury their water lines or move them over to the edge of the gulch to allow better maintenance of the gravel part of the road. It is true that some drivers prefer to drive down the middle of the road. There are appropriate speed bumps, so only Lot owners and their renters in large SUV's and trucks tend to drive too fast. There are a number of Lot owners with unpermitted additional dwellings that rent to either vacation renters or longer-term renters. It is correct that the Association did not establish any maintenance agreement before dissolving the Association, and thus it seems our maintenance person at Hawaii Island Retreat is the only one that does maintenance. He mows and grates the sides of Maluhia Road every 3 months, as well as grates Lokahi Road which remain gravel. Planning Dap;. Exhibit 33 Selling Lodge There has been some individual that have come to us asking if we would sell Hawaii Island Retreat on TMK:5-4-009-014. This may happen at some point; however, that is not now, and we do not have the Retreat listed on MILS, nor do we have any offers. I have involved a dear friend and who is a realtor to assist in communicating with those that are expressing an interest in being the steward of this very sacred place. We will not consider selling the farm on TMK:5-4-009-020 as we intend to continue to spend more time farming. As stated in our Amendment Application, we are requesting the additional 20 units so that we can provide the peace and privacy of single occupancy for those that come for yoga retreats, meditation retreats, and such rather than to increase the number of attendees. There may be a minor increase in attendees occasionally.
