which will promote operational and management efficiency and effectiveness, reduce operational <br />costs, and mitigate impacts of its operations on community resources, for example, reduction of <br />traffic on public roadways, noise, vehicular exhaust and consumption of fuel. <br /> <br />This is the applicant’s site plan. Off to the right of this site is the existing DeLuz base yard <br />operations. You may note within this two-acre – okay, I just lost my pointer, sorry, okay, that <br />doesn’t help – off to the right you can see the batch plant, proposed batch plant operations, <br />including, toward the bottom of the project site you see where they propose some aggregate storage; <br />off to your left a bit you see these four features, those are like the applicant’s base yard operation, <br />those are like the concrete trucks; and to the left of the project site is where the precast operations <br />will be conducted. Along the bottom of the map, the applicant has already commenced with the <br />planting of landscape material; they are at an early stage yet, but we do anticipate them to grow <br />eventually and then provide the necessary visual and noise buffer. <br /> <br />This is some photograph, the top left photograph show it’s facing north toward Waimea, with the <br />project site access driveway off to your left, and on the lower right hand side is looking south along <br />Māmalahoa Highway, with the project access driveway off to your right. <br /> <br />The Planning Director has reviewed this application, and is recommending to the Commission its <br />approval subject to proposed conditions of approval. With that, I stand ready to answer any <br />questions that you may have. <br /> <br />UNGER: Thank you. Commissioners, any questions of Planning at this time? <br /> <br />CHURCH: \[Inaudible\] questions really more out of curiosity — <br /> <br />SAUER: Commissioner Church, please use the microphone. <br /> <br />UNGER: Speak into your mike. <br /> <br />CHURCH: Okay. Looking at the State Land Use Map, it looked – here we go – part of the <br />property is Urban, and if you look at the County General Plan, Industrial sweeps right to the south <br />of it. So I’m just curious why was that the site was selected there rather than position it south with <br />access from the storage area, which I think then would not require a Special Permit. <br /> <br />ARAI: That question maybe is best addressed to the applicant. The representatives of the applicant <br />are currently here. <br /> <br />UNGER: Very good. Commissioners, any other questions of staff? Very Good. Thank you. <br /> <br />ARAI: You’re welcome. <br /> <br />UNGER: Would the applicants or representatives come forward, please? Please raise your right <br />hand. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth before the Planning Commission? <br /> <br />REPRESENTATIVES: I do. <br />3 <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
