LIM: No, we donÓt. We are doing, all we are doing is we are following the dictates of the Department of Public Works and the Kona CDP to stub out to the s HOUSEL: Okay. Have you spoken with the adjacent landowner? LIM: IÓve spoken to him a long time ago, and I donÓt know what his current plans are. HOUSEL: I see, okay. Now, one of the things you stated in your application was that you felt this land qualified to be infill per the Kona CDP. Could you explain that, please? LIM: ThatÓs correct. The Kona CDP was essentially, I think, at least in my opinion, was set up to identify areas within Kona that would be proposed for a development, more so that the outside areas, and the infill was areas of land development in the general boundaries of existing urban and suburban areas. And we feel that it complies with the Kona CDP in that weÓve got existing urban and suburban areas immediately surrounding it. I think you saw from the General Plan LUPAG Map where the Urban Expansion Area was, that entire area should be going out to residential; there is a plan to do that in the General Plan anyway. HOUSEL: It seems like to me the definition as stated in the Kona CDP is infill is intended for land that has been previously developed or is surrounded by existing developments, is that correct? LIM: No, I think thatÓs an incorrect statement, and I think you are getting that from one of th glossary terms in the back of the design guidelines. And you should know that that was imported into the Kona CDP, wholesale from the Smart Code without any kind of calibration here. ItÓs inconsistent with the other definitions within the Kona CDP itself. HOUSEL: Okay, thank you. Any other questions? Commissioner Giff GIFFIN: I donÓt know if this question is better asked of Ki, but just looking at the existing roadways, looking at the proposed 45 lots of the subject property, the greatest impact of this traffic that would be resulting from the 45 lots would be where? I mean not kamaÒina to that, so I just want to know, maybe from the applicantÓs representative or from Ki, the greatest impact. LIM: The two main entrances for the project are, you can see where the makai boundary of the parcel is -. BOWMAN: You get the -. Can you use the -? GIFFIN: Jeff has it. LIM: Okay. Off of the project concept, the one connection would be south to Pualena whenever that gets opened up; the other connection would be makai and right there on the makai portion of the project, you see this road tailing off, that will be developed, as the Planning Director was talking, into that Huallai Road connector right at the one straight way where thereÓs adequate sight distance. There will also be another roadway coming from the Huallai Road section back through the makai project, which is Parcel 42, out to Paulehia Street when that gets finally dedicated in the 10 EXHIBIT A
