If I can direct your attention to the screen, the zoning map shows the location of the property. <br />It’s in South Kona, in the Keei area. And it’s just to the east of Hawaii Belt Road, which runs in <br />a north-south direction in the middle of the map. The property is outlined in red, and there is a <br />little dot here showing the location of the existing tower on the property.Most, actually, all of <br />the surrounding properties are zoned Agricultural. And this is an aerial photo that shows again <br />the Hawaii Belt Road running in a north-south direction. And it’s a little hard to see, but the <br />current lease area on the property is outlined in read, and the tower is located in this area here <br />surrounded by coffee trees and other vegetation, and it’s about 600 feet from the highway. <br />The site plan again shows the lease area and the location of the equipment and the existing tower. <br />And this is a graphic showing the existing tower outlined in a light dash pattern, and the <br />proposed 60-foot tower with the panel antennas.So this is the west elevation and it would be <br />what you would see looking from the highway, although the highway is set below this, so the <br />tower wouldn’t be visible from the highway. <br />The Planning Director is recommending approval of the applicant’s request to amend the Special <br />Permit. Are there any questions? <br />WATANABE: Any questions from the Commissioners? Mr. Housel? <br />HOUSEL: Yeah, could you go back to the aerial photo, please? <br />COTTLE: Sure. <br />HOUSEL: It looks like there are some homes above mauka of the site there. <br />COTTLE: Yes. <br />HOUSEL: Would this tower be in their viewplane? <br />COTTLE: I’m not certain. The applicant may be able to answer that, but I’m not <br />sure. <br />HOUSEL: Okay, thank you. <br />WATANABE: Mr. Domingo? <br />DOMINGO: Is it a requirement that the applicant send notices to the surrounding areas <br />in this particular case? <br />COTTLE: Yes, it is. <br />DOMINGO: Okay. So I would assume that they’ve been notified. And I guess the <br />representative will be coming up to make a presentation. What I’d just like to clarify is the <br />agreement provides for an automatic extension for four additional five-year terms, plus <br />additional extensions as necessary. Four five-year terms, we are looking at 20 years. <br />EXHIBIT C <br />2 <br /> <br />
