This is the Puna CDP Map of Paradise Park which identifies their different regional town centers and <br />village centers. The actual application is within this area. So this is outside of these different town <br />center areas. <br /> <br />Special Permit No. 770 was issued to Malamalama School in 1991 for the establishment of a preschool <br />day care center on the subject property. It was limited to 26 children and the hours of operation were <br />Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. and I believe 2 p.m. In 1998 the applicant purchased the <br />property and began operating a spiritual center and educational annex within the former preschool and <br />day care center building. <br /> <br />The applicant is requesting to amend Special Permit No.770 to legitimize the operation of an <br />educational annex within the former preschool day care center building and to allow the establishment <br />of an approximately 2400-square foot spiritual center meeting hall on the subject property. <br /> <br />st <br />This is the applicant’s site plan. We have 31 Avenue on the right side of the map; and we have <br />Paradise Drive on the lower portion of the map. Currently there is an existing access on Paradise <br />st <br />Drive, as well as on 31 Avenue. This is the existing preschool structure that is there that will be used <br />for the educational annex. This is the proposed 2400-square foot spiritual center meeting hall. <br /> <br />As you’ll see the plan identifies parking on the property. At this point this is just preliminary so this <br />isn’t exactly how things might fall. There’s a question as far as landscaping going along the perimeter, <br />and so the possibility of the location of parking might be changed. <br /> <br />This is the elevations of the proposed spiritual center meeting hall, and these are some site photos. <br />st <br />This is on 31 Avenue looking towards Paradise Drive, which is in this location, and the access would <br />be on the right side of the slide. This is on Paradise Drive looking towards the highway looking <br />mauka, and the actual subject property is on the left side of the slide. And this is looking towards <br />Paradise Drive, again looking makai. The actual entrance to the property is on the right side of the <br />slide. And this is looking, the lower portion of the map is Paradise Drive. This is the existing <br />educational annex and this is the existing access from Paradise Drive. <br /> <br />The Planning Director is recommending approval of the amendment to Special Permit 770 by the <br />Planning Commission. Are there any questions? <br /> <br />KERN: Any questions for staff? <br /> <br />ONO: I -. <br /> <br />KERN: Commissioner Ono? <br /> <br />ONO: I’m reading this as saying that basically they’re looking at establishing a church building. <br /> <br />DARROW: There are two aspects to the request. One is to amend the permit to go from a preschool <br />day care center to an educational annex that currently is being used by HAAS School; and then also to <br />establish a church or a spiritual center that they referred to, and a meeting hall on the subject property. <br />2 <br /> EXHIBIT B <br /> <br /> <br />
