setback. The Planning Department determined that the infilling of the swimming pool didnot need a variance and the applicant had met with the Planning Director and came to an agreement that they would eliminate the makai most seating row and therefore have 1 seating row that would extend into the shoreline setback 8 feet 10 inches. The area identified in blue is an existing rock wall that is, was determined on January 24, 2005 by the Chairman of the Board of Land and Natural Resources to be the certified shoreline so that would be at the base of the makai side of this wall. The applicant is also proposing in this particular area to fix a ADA accessible ramp in this particular area to allow the public to be able to come from the south lawn grass area as well as the public access area and to be able to come into this area to the north of the Kona Inn Shopping Village. The Planning Department has not received any letters of opposition or support for this particular application. The Planning Director is recommending that this request be approved by the Planning Commission. I do have a few minor changes that Id like to bring to your attention. We apologize for the several revised background and recommendations. The second revised background and recommendation will be the final backgroundandrec.Wedliketoincorporatethefirstrevisedintothesecondsowedbeadding the underlying portion that is in the first revised under subsection 1-B and we will incorporate that into subsection 1-B in the second revised. Additionally on page 2 of the background, in item 2E bullet number 1 on the last line wed like to change 20 feet to 8 feet 10 inches and additionally the same change made on the third bullet on the third line, 20 feet to 8 feet 10 inches. Apologize for that error. Are there any questions? GALDONES:Commissioners any questions of Jeff? Commissioner Graham? GRAHAM:Jeff is the ADA ramp physically contiguous in any way with the seating area thats being requested? DARROW:Thank you for bringing that to my attention. Im going to pass out some photos here. Were going to be looking to photo number 3 and number 1. You can see it in a photo number 1 will display the area where the lanai will be placed and to the right along the wall will be the area where this ADA ramp will be placed. As far as it being, is your question that it, is it connected to the seating lanai? It appears to be separate from it. But it will enhance the public access for this area. GRAHAM:Thank you. GALDONES:Any further questions of Jeff? Seeing none is the representative or the applicant here? Will you please step forward? Mr. Lim I have already sworn you in and youre still under oath. Will the gentleman next to you be making a statement? LIM:Yes he will. GALDONES:Okay, may I have him sworn in? Please raise your right hand sir. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth on this matter now before the Hawaii County Planning Commission? KIMI:Yes I do. EXHIBIT E 2
