2023-04-20 DRAFT Joint Meeting Exh B (Proposed Amendments to PC Ruls 8 & 9)

Home

KERN: I think we would need a legal opinion on whether or not we could adjust that down because that would be less stringent than what the State's requiring right now. [indecipherable] KANUHA: Yes. That was a question that was on my mind, I've been just looking at it. So, I wanted to bring that up and have a discussion about it. DEFRANCO: Commissioner Paishon-Duarte. PAISHON-DUARTE: Thank you Commissioner Kanuha. Commissioner Paishon-Duarte here. I appreciate all the questions that you raised, and I would like to also advocate that our staff should seek a legal opinion to find if there are any provisions, exceptions that can be made for kuleana landowners in certain cases. KERN: And so, you'll be looking for some type of exemption that would not define it as development in that$500,000.00 threshold. So, basically avoiding a SMA Major is that what— PAISHON-DUARTE: Director Kern. I'm more in the exploratory phase. I want to understand what are the various options it might not be in the exemption per se. But what are some of the options that we can look at? KERN: You guys good on that? DEFRANCO: Your good Mike? You're good, yes. JACKSON: Staff can work with Corporation Counsel Salas-Ferguson to explore what the options are related to that. Thank you. DEFRANCO: Okay, thank you. Is there any more points that we want to bring up or discuss? No, we all good then? So, we're going to need a motion to continue, is that right or a motion to adjourn? VITOUSEK: I make a motion that we continue. KERN: Can we just verify with staff on the most appropriate action here. JACKSON: So, we're required to provide 30 days minimum notice. So, I think the earliest we would be able to schedule would be for June 2nd after the Windward Planning Commission meeting. So, that afternoon. KERN: My suggestion if we can would be to the call of the Chair to the call of the Department as we need to arrange both Commissions and the timing factor and we do have some work on the backend and we do have a myriad of people taking vacation till this next month. So, that would be the request just to give us a little bit of flexibility on the exact date, but we'll get it back up as soon as possible. 28 EXHIBIT B (DRAFT)
