amendment is attempting to do is to provide clarity in what type of traffic would be restricted prior to the installation of necessary improvements along Paniolo Avenue to accommodate left-turn movements into the project site. Below that, you’ll see a new Condition J; that condition is to address, or at least ensure, that potable water necessary to support the commercial development will be provided by the applicant prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for any commercial use on the property. We apologize, we inadvertently left this condition out, and it’s just to provide reassurance that water will be provided to support the project in adherence to the County concurrency requirements. One last item: We did receive an email from Mary Wills Schulherr, if I pronounced that correctly, dated November 9, 2012, and her comments have been, copies of which have been provided to all of the Commissioners. So with that, I believe I can stand ready to answer any questions that you may have. GIFFIN: Commissioners, do you have any questions of Daryn. Lani. BOWMAN: I do. Could you go back to the site plan, I think? So the park is in the green, and you talked about the extra leftover land, the purple. ARAI: The remainder roughly six-acre parcel is indicated in purple. BOWMAN: And that would be just left in open? ARAI: The applicant can clarify if there is any future intended use of that reminder six-acre parcel, but as of right now I’m personally not familiar. BOWMAN: Okay. And one more question, and I apologize; I did look this over, but I may have missed it. The designated park area, does Parks and Recreation need to accept it as a viable park area? Do you know? ARAI: The applicant, well, the lands are intended to be dedicated to the County, and the County Council must accept the dedication. So this matter will be brought before the County Council. The applicant has been in discussion with representatives of the County, as well as the councilman for this particular district, Councilman Hoffmann, for a number of years already. In your background report – and I don’t, hopefully I can – there is actually letters from both the Councilman Hoffmann and Parks and Recreation Director supporting the park. BOWMAN: Okay, even though it looks like there is that floodway going through the middle of it. ARAI: Right. I should note that it’s designated as a drainage way, but it is not technically a floodway; my information holds that this project is outside of the 500-year floodway. BOWMAN: Okay. And I apologize, I guess I overlooked the Parks and Recreation. Thank you. GIFFIN: Lani, I’m glad you brought that up, because I had some questions, too, Daryn, about the park designation. It looks as if the parcel is landlocked in terms of getting onto Paniolo or getting onto Waikoloa Road. And is it too premature right now to even discuss that kind of thing, because it looks like it would be landlocked. 3 EXHIBIT A
