Subdivision. To the left side of the map we have the Red Road; and coming we have Kapoho Beach Road; and then the actual access road to the property is Ililani Street or Ililani Road. This is an overview aerial photo. Again, we show Ililani Road. The property is outlined with a red outline. There is an existing dwelling on the property and also a guest house that has been built right in this particular location. There are existing dwellings in the area, mainly the Beach Lots. There also is a dwelling located on the adjacent property. The applicant is requesting the construction of a temple for religious purposes. I believe this is approximately 1500 square feet in size, three guest bedrooms, let me go back on that. The religious purposes are to be able to conduct spiritually-based ceremonies and celebrations, spiritual practices, energy healing practices, and educational sessions. The background report goes into a little further detail as to what type of sessions and ceremonies these particular religious purposes involve. Again, three guest bedrooms for overnight accommodations -- one has been constructed, two are proposed to be built -- and, lastly, to be able to conduct agricultural tourism on the five-acre property. This is a plot plan of the property, site plan. The lower portion of the map shows the access road, Ililani Road. There is an existing driveway on the property. Again, we show the, I believe this is where the existing dwelling is, right in this particular location. The proposed temple is going to be in this particular area. There is an existing guest house, and then there is going to be several, two other guest houses built here, as well as a bath house. This, in this particular location there is an existing pond on the property. They have been also required to put in a fire road, and thatÓs on the right side of the property in this particular area. This is just an elevation shot of what the temple will look like when it is constructed. These are some site photos. This is right in front of the property looking towards Kapoho Beach Road. This is Ililani Road. As you can see itÓs a compact gravel road approximately 12 feet wide. This is the access road or the driveway into the property which is gated. This is the existing dwelling thatÓs located on the property. This is the temple site where the temple will be constructed. This is just next to the existing dwelling. Just to the right over on this side is where the existing guest house is and then the other guest houses are going to be built right in this area along the tree line. This is the existing guest house that is constructed at this time. Again, this is the location of the additional guest houses; and this is the existing pond. Apparently this was constructed prior to Ms. Dolena purchasing the property. These are aquacultural ponds that are being constructed. There were several of them on the property when we had conducted the site inspection, as well as there was quite a bit of agricultural activity that was occurring on the property. They were in the process of planting all types of fruit trees and doing these aquaculture ponds. The Planning Director is recommending approval with conditions. If I could direct your attention to the conditions, there are, there have been some concerns regarding this application, especially about traffic impacts, as well as noise impacts, and those types of issues. We have tried to address these impacts within our conditions. Condition 3 goes into quite detail in regards to limiting certain activity on the property. There are hours of use, there are amounts of visitors at any given time, there are amounts of weddings that can occur per month, there are limitations as far as the guest bedrooms, as well as the type of passenger vans that can be permitted (no buses, it will allow up to 25-passener type buses, but no large buses), as well as ÐgÑ states that there will, no concerts, conventions, and other types of special events and activities shall be EXHIBIT B 2
