the Executive Summary. Susan did point out the VDG thoroughfares were done by their transportation engineer after he toured/analyzed the entire island’s roadway system by bike. The discussion then opened up to the public. The issues that were addressed or identified were as follows: Master Plans could possibly be done for areas with multiple landowners but that each landowner could come in for permitting/entitlement separately. The minimum acreage of the CDP will need to be amended down from the 80 acres minimum required presently in the KCDP. There is a need to do a translation map for the areas such as Kailua Town, this will show for each parcel what transects match to the current zoning. Possibly create a parallel code to utilize the VDG for the Kailua Town areas as a alternative to a large scale project district application. Possibly utilizing the TND project district, which will allow for smaller acreage applications within the identified TOD circles. The commercial minimums/requirements may not be viable for the district/area. The Special District may be a competing interest in the development of true mixed use commercial areas. Clarification was made that the VDG is amendable by the Planning Director with the approval recommendation by the Action Committee. Therefore there will not be a Rule created to implement the VDG. Article 1 will be moved back into the VDG. Width minimums and locations for the greenbelt can be added into the VDG. T-5 does not have to be located in the center of a community. Usually the heart or center of the TOD would be a civic space (a civic building or park) The TOD’s identified within the KCDP would not create just one center or community but it could create several, it depends on how they are developed. Sprawl repair/ intersection repair to be included to provide “good” roundabout designs as alternatives to standard intersection. Architectural design standards included or not within the VDG or have them to be a part of the TOD/project district application Signs design standards are meant to address the scale of the signs (the size and type) not the design of the signs. The Palm Trees should be included back into the VDG. Coconut trees should be allowed back in but not to be allowed within civic and pedestrian ways. 2.3.3 (page 9) has been modified and has been re-located to page 32 Many of the landscaping changes have been modified and relocated into another location of the VDG. tm;E
