Okay, and down here this particular Ag-1 zoning was put in place at the same time that the Ag-3 <br />zoning was put in place, so this whole section here was rezoned at the same time. So the makai area <br />here that’s Ag-1 looks to be roughly one acre in size parcels as well. We went back and looked at <br />the file, the rezone file, back in 1972 to see if there was any justification as to why they did it that <br />way; there really wasn’t any in the analysis or in the transcripts from the meeting. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Commissioners, any further comment or discussion? I’d like to ask the applicant if <br />you want to comment on any of the discussion that we had here. <br /> <br />C. LIPPS: Yeah, I would just like to reiterate that there are 35 --. <br /> <br />SAUER: Microphone, please. <br /> <br />C. LIPPS: Oh, I’m sorry. There are 35 one-acre lots at the makai end of our street, so, it’s, I just <br />don’t feel like subdividing that is going to have any negative effect on the neighbors to the south or <br />anywhere. That’s our opinion. <br /> <br />KANUHA: Mr. Chairman, I had a question for the applicant. Is your real property taxes based on <br />being agriculture or residential or what is it? <br /> <br />C. LIPPS: No, I think, I don’t know what it is – oh, I’m sorry – I don’t think we claim agriculture at <br />all; we pay like, it’s over 6,000, almost 7,000 dollars a year on property tax, and going through all <br />these maps around me, I seem to pay a lot more taxes than other people, so. I know we pay over <br />6,000 dollars a year, almost 7,000 dollars a year on property tax now. <br /> <br />KANUHA: Okay, thank you. <br /> <br />C. LIPPS: So I don’t think we get it. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: If there are no further comments or questions for the applicant, we can move forward. <br />Thank you. Thank you for your presentation and your comments. Okay, if there is anyone in the <br />audience who wishes to testify? Would you please sign in on the sheets of paper behind prior to <br />coming up? Would you please raise your right hand? Do you swear to tell the truth now and before <br />the Leeward Planning Commission? <br /> <br />ZWICK: I do. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Could you please state your name, and speak clearly into the mike? <br /> <br />ZWICK: Vera Zwick. And I live on an adjoining property, the little one that’s three quarters of the <br />neighbor, third one down. I bought in 1994, 1995, and I understood the place back of me would <br />never be subdivided, so I bought there. Now, on his property it shows that he has a big garage right <br />next to the house. There is also --. <br /> <br />SAUER: Excuse me, ma’am, could you hold the mike closer. <br /> <br />14 <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
