This is a closer view of the area. Just for reference again, on the left side of the map, we have Highway 19 or Volcano Highway. The actual property is located on the corner of East Mamaki Street and Awa Street. Again, identified in a black outline. The light blue colors on the map represent Agricultural – 3 acre zoning. The darker blue represents Agricultural – 10 acres. And, the orange type colors represent Residential - Agricultural zoning. Our State Land Use shows our first app—the location of our first application, Panaʽewa House Lots, First Series, which is zoned Urban, and the subject property is located in the Second Series of the House Lots, and is zoned State Land Use Agriculture. This is our General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map which identifies the property on the edge of Low Density Urban as well as Important Agricultural Lands. For purposes of this application, it’s been identified more as Low Density Urban because of the smaller size of the lots. This is an aerial photo. Again, for reference, we have East Mamaki Street and Awa Street, and the subject property is identified in this, on the corner of these streets. Currently, there are three dwellings on the property as well as greenhouses that have been used actively for orchid and macadamia nut farming. The applicants are requesting a State Land Use Boundary Amendment from Agricultural to Urban as well as a Change of Zone from Agricultural – 3 acres to Residential Agricultural - .5 acre. This is to accommodate a proposed subdivision of the 2.6-acre property into four lots consisting of a minimum of .5 acre in size and to be conveyed to their children. The proposed 4-lot subdivision would consist of three lots that are at least one-half acre each, and the fourth lot would consist of 1+ acre and is where the applicants currently reside. This is a site plan that was submitted with the application. Again, for reference, along the top of the map, we have Awa Street. On the left side, we have East Mamaki. Its proposed subdivision identifies each of the four lots. Three of the lots are just above a half acre in size, and one lot will be one acre in size where the applicants currently reside. As mentioned, there are three dwellings currently constructed on the property, and this would be the location of the fourth lot where a greenhouse is currently located. Here are some site photos. This is on East Mamaki Street looking mauka with the subject property on the left. And, this is looking onto the property on, from East Mamaki Street. And this is looking on East Mamaki Street looking towards Awa Street which is just ahead, and the subject property is on the right. 2 EXHIBIT C
