e. Description of how the proposed project will affect the area and surrounding <br />properties: The four -lot subdivision will have little impact on the surrounding <br />properties. The only item of possible concern may be the increased traffic from <br />additional occupants of the subdivided lots. Lots 1 and 2 will gain their primary access <br />through Mill Road while Lots 3 and 4 will have their primary access through Kopilimai <br />Road. Either way the anticipated increase in traffic flow will be minimal on the <br />community. <br />According to County DEM the sewer treatment plant is running under capacity and has <br />more than enough room to accept waste waters from three additional lots and <br />respective farm dwelling units. <br />Availability of water meter units from the County DWS has been requested by letter <br />dated 8/11/23. See Exhibit E. ...by the County DWS. <br />Construction of farm dwelling structures on the newly created lots may possibly impact <br />the view plane of the coastline from nearby adjacent properties. However, the proposed <br />set back of 50' from the "Top of Pali" should minimize view impediments of the lands <br />nearest the coastline. <br />f. Description of impacts which cannot be avoided, and mitigating measures proposed to <br />minimize that impact: It is not expected that any impacts will be of significance that <br />would require mitigating measures. <br />g. Alternatives to the proposed project: Alternatives to the 4-lot subdivision include A) <br />decreasing the lot count to 2 or 3 lots; or B) not doing the subdivision at all. <br />h. Any irreversible and irretrievable commitment of resources: Once the 4-lot subdivision <br />is completed, owner Brian Clark Living Trust may place Lots 3 and 4 on the market for <br />sale to others. Once sold to others, the continuity of a single owner for the parcel (as a <br />whole) will be lost. Fortunately, the private trail to Papaikou Mill Beach will remain in <br />the hands of Brian Clark Living Trust upon the retained Lots 1 and 2. Lot 1 contains the <br />residential structures and entry gate for the beach trail as well as the access and utility <br />easements to Lots 2, 3 & 4. Lot 2 contains the remnants of the Sugar Mill, the switch <br />back portions of the beach trail, and the ili'ili beach. The Brian Clark Trust intends to <br />keep the trail open to use by surfers and other persons wanting access to the ocean for <br />fishing and gathering. Use of the trail will retain the same restrictions and conditions <br />that exist currently. Trail hours are 6:30am to 6:30pm. <br />Brian Clark Living Trust intends to investigate resuming demolition actions upon the <br />remaining mill structure near Kapue River and the beach. Any demolition work is NOT <br />rt of this SMAA. those actions will be assessed at a future date. Demo work on the <br />mill will be irreversible but when completed the remaining area of "Lot 2" will be far <br />safer to enter and utilize. <br />
