<br />108 <br />some roads could be achieved in sections if not along its entirety. Much of this information is <br />109 <br />available and with some dedicated time it can be retrieved. <br />110 <br />Greg asked the Director how he sees using the current Action Committee and the past members to <br />· <br />111 <br />assist the county in its review. The Director responded that the planning department needs first to <br />112 <br />understand the areas of concern, and then with solutions, planning will go to the Action <br />113 <br />Committee first to review the documents. Planning will remain flexible with Action Committee <br />114 <br />recommendations as to what will be the process. <br />115 <br />Bo asked when the Director though he would have something to discuss. The Director responded <br />· <br />116 <br />with maybe another month or two. <br />117 <br />Terry noted that our next meeting will be on November 20, 2013, and the committee can decide <br />· <br />118 <br />whether they wish to hold a meeting in December. <br />119 <br />A question about whether Volume #2 is available was answered by Keola that if it is not on line, <br />· <br />120 <br />a digital copy would be made available to any Action Committee member upon request. <br />121 <br /> <br />122 <br />Questions from the audience was approved by the Action Committee to take place at this time <br />123 <br /> <br />124 <br />Janice Palmer-Glennie asked how will refocusing issues affect connectivity? Greg stated that <br />· <br />125 <br />many roads in Kailua-Kona are currently under design or construction. Keola stated that this is <br />126 <br />why we need public participation in the concurrency situation. State Highways Division is <br />127 <br />involved with many very critical highways within our community and they need to be part of <br />128 <br />these meetings to help the State understand the urgency of these improvements. The public can <br />129 <br />assist in the emphasis of State Highways needs to move forward as soon as possible. <br />130 <br />Marnie Herkes stated that the cost of 800 million is a small amount to seek for these <br />· <br />131 <br />improvements and the improvements need to be done over the next 20 years. The plan needs to <br />132 <br />be tweaked not be changed. I hope you stay true to the plan. <br />133 <br />Karen Eoff spoke on impact fees and implemented in the areas involving the CDPs. Maybe we <br />· <br />134 <br />could bond or borrow the money to provide for a solution. Marnie encouraged her to get her 6 <br />135 <br />votes together. She will have her staff start looking at other communities to see how they <br />136 <br />accomplished these needs. <br />137 <br />Duane mentioned that impact fees, in order to not be a tax must be applied across the board and <br />· <br />138 <br />this has been a problem in getting impact fees approved. <br />139 <br />Ken mentioned that vacant lots that are already zoned, when developed, will impact the <br />· <br />140 <br />infrastructure without impact fees. Fair share only applies to a new application. <br />141 <br />Janice Palma-Glennie is worried about the use of the word “charrette” because it would go back <br />· <br />142 <br />to where we started. What are you rolling out to the community that would lead to a “charrette”? <br /> 4 <br /> <br />
