steel monopole. The original permit allowed replacement of the 80-foot wood monopole with an <br />80-foot steel monopole; so they are requesting an additional 40 feet. <br />The property is located in Hawi off of Kynnersley Road. And on the screen here, Kynnersley <br />Road runs in a north-south direction, and as it loops to the west, the property is outlined in <br />yellow. And the pole location is – there is a little red dot that shows the location – just north of <br />Kynnersley Road. You can see that a little bit better on this site plan. Kynnersley Road runs <br />along the bottom of the site. There is a dirt road that’s used to access the site, the lease area. <br />And the monopole, the existing pole is right in the middle of their lease area here. <br />I’m going to show you four pictures that were submitted by the applicant: Two of them are <br />photos of the existing monopole, and two of them are photo simulations which show what the <br />proposed 120-foot monopole would look like. The first two photos were taken from this <br />location, looking northbound at the pole along Kynnersley Road. And then the second two <br />photos are going to be off of this street here, looking in an easterly direction towards the site. So <br />this is the first photo of the existing pole, and you can see the antennas just above the tree line <br />here. Again, this is Kynnersley Road here. You are looking in an easterly direction. And then <br />this is the photo simulation showing the proposed pole, and again this is the tree line here and the <br />proposed pole would be above the tree line. And this is a view looking from Kaauhuhu Road, <br />and you can barely make out the antennas here on the existing pole. And then the proposed <br />monopole is, again this is the same tree line here as before, but you can see the pole well above <br />the tree line. <br />So the Planning Director is recommending approval with the amended conditions shown in the <br />recommendation of the Special Permit application. <br />WATANABE: Thank you, Maija. <br />COTTLE: You are welcome. <br />WATANABE: Fellow Commissioners, do we have any questions of staff? It doesn’t <br />seem like we have any. Before I call -. Yes, you have questions, Mr. Iwashita? <br />IWASHITA: Yeah. <br />WATANABE: Yes, go ahead. <br />IWASHITA: Was there any consideration given to, you know, as far as disguising the <br />extension, you know, to look like a tree as opposed to what the depiction is? <br />COTTLE: No, that wasn’t a requirement of the Department. <br />WATANABE: I believe -. Didn’t you, Mr. Yuen, didn’t you specify colors and that the <br />guy cables would be wrapped in a dark green? Is that correct? <br />COTTLE: Condition No. 6 does say that the guy wires are to be painted green -. <br />EXHIBIT D <br />2 <br /> <br />
