So, this 25-acre parcel is currently zoned Agricultural – 20 acres. The surrounding zoning for the area to the north and directly to the east is also Ag-20. Little farther to the east is Agricultural – 1 acre, and across Kaūmana Drive again for Kaūmana Estates Subdivision is Single Family Residential – 15,000 square feet. And to the west, Agricultural – 10 acres and some Agricultural - 3 acres. Land uses in the immediate area include residential and agricultural activities. The LUPAG designation for the subject parcel is primarily Extensive Agriculture with small amounts of Important Agricultural Land and Medium Density Urban, as indicated by the light green and the mustard color. The State Land Use designation for the entire parcel is Agricultural and, again, across Kaūmana Drive, is Urban as indicated by the red color. This aerial photograph, again just for reference, we have Kaūmana Drive running east-west, and Lyman Springs Road running north-south. Again, the parcel is outlined in red. The applicants currently live on the parcel, and they access their single family dwelling here from Lyman Springs Road. So, the applicants are requesting a Change of Zone from Agricultural – 20 acres to Family Agricultural – 3 acres in order to subdivide the property into five lots. Each of those proposed lots will be over four acres in size with the applicants retaining the largest lot, which includes their existing dwelling. The applicants then intend to convey a lot to each of their three children. Access to the applicants’ existing dwelling again is, will continue from Lyman Springs Road, and a proposed single access from Kaūmana Drive will serve the remaining four lots. Indicated here is the applicants’ site plan. Sorry, it may be difficult to see, but again the red dashed outline, again you see the applicants’ current dwelling and the, the lot will be roughly 6.3 acres, and the remaining will range anywhere between four and five acres. Here, again, along Kaūmana Drive, indicated here, and kind of blown up here, would be that access serving these, I guess, eastern most four lots. Here’s some photographs indicating frontage along Kaūmana Drive. Difficult to see into the actual parcel itself. There’s a lot of vegetation along Kaūmana Drive. Here is, looking north on Lyman Springs Road, again, this will be access for a single lot, the existing—to access the existing dwelling, and, then, looking south on Lyman Springs Road where it intersects with Kaūmana Drive. And, then along the Kaūmana frontage, here’s looking makai along Kaūmana Drive and the subject parcel is on the left, and then looking mauka on Kaūmana Drive, the subject parcel is on the right. 2 EXHIBIT A
