east -west through the slide. Laukapu Street running north -south, and Hinano Street, again, running north -south. The three subject parcels are outlined here in yellow. This is a little bit closer view of the same map with the zoning designations indicated. The three subject parcels, again, back in 2006 were rezoned to General Commercial — 20,000 square feet as indicated in this burgundy color. Surrounding zonings include Residential —10,000 square feet; Neighborhood Commercial — 20,000 square feet as indicated in pink, and Commercial Industrial Mixed Use indicated in the purple color. Again, for reference, Kekuanao`a Street is running at the bottom of the slide east -west. Laukapu Street and Hinano Street are running parallel to one another going north -south. Surrounding uses in the area are similar. They're commercial, light industrial, and residential. This is the State Land Use Map indicating that the subject parcel, as well as the entire surrounding area, are a State Land Use Urban designation as indicated in pink. And, General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map shows that the subject parcels are in the High Density Urban designation in red with Medium Density Urban to the west and Industrial designation in gray to the east. The Applicant is requesting an amendment to four conditions of this Change of Zone Ordinance No. 06-114. These are C, D, E, and F for more time to complete construction of a proposed 2 - story, 25,000 -square foot production storage facility and an open visitor's rest area, as well as additional time to complete and dedicate required roadway improvements on Hinano, Kekuanao`a, and Laukapu Streets. The current Condition C required the construction of proposed developments be complete in five years, as well as Condition D required that future road widening strips be subdivided and dedicated within five years. For these two conditions, the Applicant came in within those five years and asked for an administrative time extension and were granted that, so the reason that they're coming in now to the Commission is because that runs out August 8th of 2016. Conditions E and F required full roadway improvements to the project's frontage and quarter radius improvements at the intersections without a trigger, a time trigger, so that there was nothing in the condition to indicate a when it needed to be done. Here are some aerial photographs of the area. On the left, we're showing kind of the Big Island Candies properties. This is the main facility. To the north is a structure, a warehousea cold storage structure that was built in 2013. The subject parcels are outlined, again, in yellow. Again, for reference, Kekuanao`a Street running east -west through the parcel. On the right-hand side, we're zoomed in a little bit. The two parcels to the east are where that 25,000 -square foot production and storage facility are proposed to be built. Right now, it is vacant and apparently has been used as overflow parking for employees. To the west, we've got a parcel here that's got two existing single-family dwellings on it. Those are being proposed to be removed, and this is where the open area visitor's center would be. Here is the Applicant's submitted site plan. Again, Kekuanao`a Street running east -west through the slide. Laukapu Street and Hinano Street, again, just showing the proposed development here EXHIBIT B 2
