of the Public Access signs up again and unlocked some of the public access gates recently, <br />presumably so as to appear in compliance. <br />5. The entire Public Access should be walked by a planner with the attached public access doc <br />and map as a reference (attached). Most alarming is that coastal public access going east is <br />blocked by what appears to by 4 hog wire fences that extend to the coastal cliffs (see attached <br />map of eastern section). The most westerly fence has no gate (see attached photos). Two of the <br />middle fences have gates near the coastline, but are burdened with billy goats and cattle at various <br />times. Even if someone climbed the first fence at their peril on the cliff (and it appears that some <br />people have done so), they would still have to chance the gauntlet of the livestock. It is hard to <br />tell from a distance, but it appears that the fourth, most easterly fence has no gate, thus restricting <br />coastal access through the adjacent Lot 22 from Lot 16. The coastal public access has been <br />blocked with fencing for easily over 10 years. <br />6. Failure to comply with several conditions of SP NO. 1117. They have not been "good <br />neighbors." The most glaring example (and there are many) is that the now defunct Honopueo <br />Community Association members were forced to pay for Maluhia Road improvements that was <br />required by the county for their Special Permit. None of the other owners have a special permit <br />and could use that road as it was. HIR then sued the neighbors to get additional compensation for <br />those improvements. There was no countersuit, and the Retreat got less than half (about $4500 <br />per lot) of what they originally sought ($10,000 per lot). <br />7. Will the shoreline public access be preserved after the PCRS? The Retreat is applying for <br />another PCRS to restrict the Retreat to 5 acres and retain the other land that has the currently <br />blocked shoreline public access on it. See attached photo, which is posted on Lokahi Road, NOT <br />on Akoni Pule Hwy. The community should finally have the ENTIRE shoreline public access <br />open, unburdened, accessible, and safe. <br />8. Where would they get the water for this project? They only have a 5/8" water meter on Akoni <br />Pule for county water. <br />Thank you for attention to these longstanding concerns. <br />Sincerely, <br />Karl Taubman and Katherine Pomeroy <br />TMK 5-4-009-024-000 Parcel 54009024000 <br />Attachments <br />1.
