area is pretty cleared already. You’ll kind of see a black outline here; and what that is is it’s an asphalt sidewalk that’s used by the members to walk and run. The applicant is requesting a use permit to construct a 150-foot (sic) tall steel telecommunication monopole with twelve 8-foot tall panel antennas and related facilities on an approximately 750-square foot portion of a 1-acre parcel. This is the applicant’s site plan. Again, we show Kupono Street on the right side of the map. As you enter onto the property, you cannot access it from here. There is an entrance here; and then you have a roadway that comes this way, and then you would access it this way. These are trees that are in this general location. And, again, these properties are owned by the Association. You have the 750-square foot area in this general location. This is a closer up of that 750-square foot area which is basically 25 by 30 feet. It shows the actual tower with the antennas and the accessory equipment, cabinets, as well as backup generator. These are some site photos. As I mentioned earlier, the actual area of the application is in this general area, but you have to access it through this way and then come around on the back side. You see the trees that block that open area. This is on the open area. This is that asphalt sidewalk. This particular area is the general location of where this monopole is going to be located. Looking towards, what am I looking towards, I guess towards the west, this would be, you can see that there’s quite a number of large trees in this particular area. And, again, you have palm trees in this area. And looking towards the community center you see, again, this area has a quite a number of trees. You have the open field for the Association. And, lastly, this is looking on the other side, again, the asphalt sidewalk. The Planning Director, Planning Department’s recommendation is that the Planning Commission approve this with conditions. I do have some items that I need to take care. No. 1 is we’ve received quite a number of correspondence since this application was submitted to the Planning Commission. No.1, we’ve received a comment letter from the Department of Water Supply basically stating that they have no objections. We’ve received numerous letters. Three were submitted to the Commission this morning. One was from Mark Hauanio, Gregory Armstrong, and lastly David Helmick. We’ve received a letter previously from Janet Kama th dated July 27, 2011. We’ve received a letter from Paul and Patricia Craft, this was dated July 8. This letter is a letter of opposition, and within the letter they had actually filled out a petition for standing in a contested case hearing. We contacted Mrs. Craft who stated that their intention was not to submit for a contested case hearing but that they were submitting a letter of objection. There was no filing fee submitted along with this petition. So the Planning Department did respond in writing verifying that. We’ve received an additional letter from Jay Fischer who has filed a petition, a timely petition for standing in a contested case as well as submitted the application fee. And so we do have this contested case petition before the Commission at this time from Jay Fischer. I have one more matter, minor correction that we’d like to make to the recommendation. And that is on the first paragraph, it refers to a special permit, and we need to change that to use permit. KERN: Okay. DARROW: The remainder of the recommendation refers to use permits. KERN: With that, that concludes our presentation. Are there any questions? AU: Mr. Chairman? 2 EXHIBIT B
