The other question I think that you had raised, Commissioner Springer, you know, dealt with this 12-foot wide trail. I do have a copy of a map that was prepared by Wes Thomas Associates which showed an existing trail thatÓs 12 feet wide that abuts the north end of the subject property. Why it wasnÓt picked up in that presentation map, I donÓt know. But when Wes Thomas Associates prepared the rezoning exhibit, you know, for the commercially-zoned area, they did reflect a 12-foot wide, the trail running mauka-makai. Again, you know, the Applicant, you know, because you already ha requirement of 20 feet because adjoining properties are zoned agricultural -. And, so, based on the zoning ordinance, you have to respect the setback of the adjoining property owners if itÓs less. So in this situation here, because itÓs agriculturally-zoned, the required setback is 20 feet, you know, from any of the proposed as a result, you know the trail, whether itÓs legal or otherwise, but weÓre conceding that it is, it exists, would not be impeded by any of the proposed improvements. And if you want a condition along that line, I do have a proposed condition itÓs necessary. FUJIKAWA:Is there any other questions from the Commission to the ApplicantÓs representative? Go ahead, Commissioner Springer. SPRINGER:Mr. Fuke, do you anticipate that the Applicant will be conducting any activities with or without the condition that would remove the trail from the landscape? FUKE:No. SPRINGER:Does your proposed condition indicate the protective nature of their intent? FUKE:Well, what I was going to suggest was something along this line -. Since the minimum setback requirements are already 20 feet, that maintain a minimum setback of 20 feet along the north property line and there shall be no other improvements, including landscaping, within 12 feet of the north property line.Ñ ÒCause sometimes you can have landscaping within that area and that could impede the flow. SPRINGER:Jeff, could you point out where the trail alignment is on the map on the wall? DARROW:Sure. ItÓs identified along the northern boundary of this area here, and it also runs up to Old Mamalahoa Highway, and continues down SPRINGER:And is immediately adjacent, the boundary? ItÓs virtually on the boundary? 8
