GIFFIN: Commissioners, any questions of Maija? Lani. BOWMAN: You know, the Low Density Urban along the Bypass, I’m not familiar with the access if it’s a federally funded, but if it did get developed, would the access to the lots be from the old Pāhoa Road or would it be from the Bypass? COTTLE: Are you talking about this Low Density here? BOWMAN: Yeah. COTTLE: There is actually a road that goes from Pāhoa Village Road out to the Bypass, called Post Office Road. BOWMAN: Okay. COTTLE: And there is access off of Post Office Road. These lots on the corner here are actually pretty large lots, so they would be getting their access from Post Office Road. DOT may allow some, you know, single-family residential driveways onto the Bypass, but from what we usually hear from DOT is they discourage commercial driveways onto the Bypass. BOWMAN: Okay, thank you. GIFFIN: Any other questions of Maija, Commissioners? Okay, no questions. Do I hear a motion? COTTLE: Madam Chair? GIFFIN: Maija. COTTLE: I just want to add one more thing. GIFFIN: Sure. COTTLE: The Windward Commission heard this amendment at their last meeting and they voted to send a favorable recommendation to the Council. GIFFIN: Thank you. So on that new information, do we have a motion? BOWMAN: I move that we send a favorable recommendation to the Council for the amendment to Map 15 of the Land Use Allocation Guide Map of the County of Hawai‘i General Plan, as amended. GIFFIN: Do I hear a second to Lani’s motion? NELSON: Second. GIFFIN: It’s been seconded by Dickie Nelson. It’s been moved by Lani Bowman and seconded by Dickie Nelson that we send a favorable recommendation to the County Council for the amendments to Map 15 of the LUPAG Map of the County of Hawai‘i General Plan. Any discussion? Hearing none, Maija, we are ready for a vote. 3 EXHIBIT A
