Here's some site photos. Pretty straightforward. A view from across Manono Street looking
<br />towards the property. Two photos, one kind of oblique and one straight on. There you can see
<br />the existing parking area, the actual commercial structure, and then the entrance to Manono
<br />Street, which is the only entrance to the parcel.
<br />Here's a view of Manono Street looking south, so you can see the flooring center right here and
<br />then here is the, looking north, there's our property in question. So, pretty straightforward.
<br />Right now, as I said, there's no plan in place because they're waiting to see if these amendments
<br />go through. There are some discussions of a new, like I said, they're asking to amend the
<br />condition that required them to convert the existing structure. They'd like the ability to be able
<br />to build a new commercial structure on the parcel if they so choose.
<br />So, at this time, we're, the Planning Director's recommendation is to forward a favorable
<br />recommendation to the County Council for each of those amended conditions.
<br />CLARKSON: Are there any questions for staff from the Commission? If not, thank you. Will
<br />the Applicant or Applicant's representative please come forward? You're sworn in, Mr. Fuke.
<br />Would you please introduce yourself again and proceed?
<br />FUKE: Sure, my name is Sidney Fuke. I'm standing here by myself doing some work for the
<br />Applicant. In a nutshell, what happened was that when Makalika 521 bought the property, they
<br />thought they could kind of like do the project so they had the construction drawings all done,
<br />completed. They were going to go out on bid. They checked with the Planning Department, and
<br />they found out that oops, although the construction plans were approved, if they did the road
<br />improvements, they still would not be able to build because the zoning would have been in
<br />limbo, you know, because it expired, you know, in 2006, I believe. So, that's the reason. So, the
<br />staff had recommended, I think you need to go in for an extension. Just clean it up and then, you
<br />know, on your way. So, the proposed condition of having all of the improvements completed,
<br />you know, off-site improvements that start construction of the new building within five years,
<br />that's going to be very workable, so hopefully with the Commissioners' favorable consideration
<br />of this, we can kind of move on. Thank you.
<br />CLARKSON: Are there any questions for the Applicant's representative? And, you agree with
<br />all the proposed
<br />FUKE: —Yes, as well as the Applicant and the current owner, yes.
<br />CLARKSON: Okay, thank you. Thank you very much. Apparently, there are no, no one signed
<br />up to testify on this proposal, so I will move that, ask for a motion that public testimony be
<br />closed.
<br />REPLOGLE: I move that we close public testimony.
<br />IKEDA: Second.
<br />CLARKSON: All those in favor?
