The application requests a <br />change from agriculture to commercial zoning. According to information provided by you, there will be no new <br />construction in connection with this change. The parcel has been grubbed and graded in the past; extant buildings <br />include a dwelling (200 1) and a shop (2007). A pool was also constructed in 2007. Photos provided by you confirm <br />that the parcel has been grubbed and leveled, with yard landscaping in place. <br />Our records indicate that we have previously reviewed a well permit application for this parcel, and indicated that no <br />historic properties were present at that time (Mark Smith memo to Commission on Water Resources, Feb 13, 2002). <br />We have received no new information since this prior review to indicate the presence of historic properties at this <br />location. Based on the history of land use, and the currently developed condition of this parcel, we believe that no <br />historic properties will be affected by the change in zoning. <br />In the unlikely event that evidence of historic properties such as lave tube openings, artifacts or skeletal remains is <br />discovered on the property, please cease activities in the immediate area and contact our office at 933 -7653. If you <br />have any questions or wish to discuss this letter, please contact me at Theresa. K wDonham @hawai i . god. <br />Aloha, <br />t <br />Theresa K.
