The subject property is identified with a black outline, and access is from the Kapoho Beach Community Road. This is a closer view of the subject property and area. This is our County zoning map so the different colors represent the County zoning. The light green represents Agricultural – 1 acre. The darker blue represents Agricultural – 10 acre; and the dark green up on the top represents Open zoning. We also have yellow zoning towards the ocean which is Residential – 10,000 square feet zoning. This is our State Land Use designation map. The green represents Agricultural. The Urban is identified in pink, and the Open zoning correlates with the blue which is Conservation District. And, this is our General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map. The subject property is identified as Extensive Agriculture. The applicant is requesting a Special Permit to allow the establishment of a 5-bedroom bed & breakfast operation within two detached, 2-bedroom suites, and one 1-bedroom guest house on a portion of a 6.025-acre property. The property also has the primary farm dwelling, a barn, a propagation shed, and two shade houses used for the propagation and cultivation of palm trees. The bed & breakfast establishment will operate seven days a week and will have no additional employees at this time, and parking is provided on site. The remainder of the property is landscaped with over 4,000--I believe that number has been raised to 5 or 6 thousand—palms comprising of 350 different species, some of which are rare or no longer exist in the wild. This is the applicant’s site plan that was submitted with the application. For reference on our right side of the map is the Kapoho Beach Community Road which provides access in this general location. And then on the bottom, this is a corner lot, and it corners with Ililani Road. Just for reference, you have the main farm dwelling on the upper portion of the map with a detached bedroom that’s associated with, that’s located near the farm dwelling. There are also two detached, 2-bedroom units that are identified in red that will be used for the bed & breakfast, as well as one, 1-bedroom guest house which is identified in blue. And, it will also be used for the bed & breakfast. These are the, the barn and the sheds that are used for the propagation and cultivation of the palms, and the remainder of the property as we’ll see from site photos is landscaped with numerous types of palms. This is an aerial photo. Again, for reference, the top of the map is the access road, Kapoho Beach Community Road. This picture was taken when the, the actual detached bedrooms were not constructed, so we have the primary farm dwelling as well as the barn and the propagation sheds as well as the numerous palms that are identified on site. 2 EXHIBIT A
