The current unfettered use of the parking stalls has not only been abused but has created some safety and maintenance (and potential liability) issues for the applicant. While the language of the existing condition would suggest the applicant's ability to do so without this amendment, to assure greater transparency and not risk been cited for a violation, the applicant is proposing to amend that condition to make clear that controls can be exercised. The subject property is located on the makai side of Kuakini Highway, along the south side of Hanama Place in Kailua Village and identified by TMK: 7-5-007: 033 with an address of 75-5722 Hanama Place. The "public use" parking area is situated on the makai edge of the subject property. Attached is a report outlining the specific request with its justification, as well as a letter of authorization from the landowner, and a list of surrounding property owners within 300 feet of the subject property. Should you have questions on this matter, please feel free to contact me on this matter. Thank you very much!
