Director Darrow and Planning Department staff dated October 28, 2025, in which Ms. Rosehill <br />reported continued unauthorized construction and requested enforcement action and restoration of <br />the traditional coastal access trail. The Director's reply, sent October 29, 2025, is not included. <br />In his reply, the Director acknowledged that Planning Department staff had conducted a <br />site visit and were drafting the 2nd NOV and addressed how the public shoreline access easement <br />would be established through the ongoing SMA permitting process. This communication is <br />directly related to the Decision and Condition No. 6 of the SMA Minor Permit, requiring the <br />Applicant to establish a pedestrian public shoreline access easement. The communication confirms <br />the Director was aware of the `Ohana's access concerns and the ongoing permitting process, and <br />it reflects his position on how those concerns would be addressed through the SMA permitting <br />process he was then conducting. It is part of the same email chain as Document 15 and is in the <br />Planning Department's file. <br />E. July through September 2025 Email Correspondence Between the `Ghana and <br />the Planning Department <br />Because email correspondence between `Ghana representatives and Planning Department <br />staff during the period of July through September 2025 was a record in the Planning Department's <br />file related to the Decision, it is a part of and should be included in the Record on Appeal. Yet it <br />is absent from the Record. This correspondence addresses the Department's approach to the CIA. <br />This correspondence concerns the Department's review of the `Ohana's CIA and of <br />cultural impacts in connection with the application. It also reflects the Department's <br />communications with the `Ghana during the period the application was under review. Because <br />these are Planning Department records in the Department's file, the Board should direct the <br />Director to supplement the Record with all email correspondence between Planning Department <br />staff and `Ghana representatives beginning on or around July 1, 2025 through to December 4, <br />7 <br />
