Members of the Planning Commission, going to <br />the overall location map, just as a matter of orientation, this is Kalanianaole Avenue, and that is <br />going towards the Keaukaha direction. This is Kanoelehua Avenue going towards Puna. This is <br />the Banyan Drive area. <br />The subject property is identified at this particular location by this red dot. The dot is actually <br />bigger than the property itself but we just wanted to highlight where the property is located. <br />Again, this is Kalanianaole Avenue, this is Kumau Street running in a mauka-makai orientation, <br />and this is Ocean View Drive that goes up to this location. Access to Ocean View Drive would <br />be from Kumau Street. The Hilo Harbor is located here. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />1 <br /> <br />
