develop a Planned Unit Development by reducing the number of lots in the Lehua
Villages from 60 to 40 lots. Lehua Village 1 would consist of 20 lots to be sold at rates
pursuant to affordable housing guidelines, and Lehua Village 2 would consist of 20 lots
to be sold at market rates. The properties straddle the east and west sides of Lehua
