Change of Zone Ordinance No. 98-129 (REZ 904) _
Applicant: Hawaiian Development Corporation (HDC)
Subject: Compliance of Condition E and Administrative Time Extension Request
Tax Map Key: 7-5-003: Portion of 006 & 007
Thank you for your letter dated February 27, 2004 requesting confirmation as to compliance with
Conditions D and E of the above listed ordinance. We confirm that Condition E (construction
completion) has been met based on the construction of Lowe's meeting the construction deadline
of December 7, 2003. Although Final Subdivision Approval has been granted for the first
increment, the second increment has only received Tentative Subdivision Approval. Based on the
continued efforts to meet these conditions, we will allow an administrative time extension based
on Condition P. Therefore, we will grant a 5-year time extension to December 7, 2008 to
comply with Condition D (secure Final Subdivision Approval).
We will be forwarding a copy of the submittal to the Planning Commission and the County
Council.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jeff Darrow at 961-8288.
Sincerely„

The requirements of Condition E were clarified in a letter from the Planning Director dated
7/22/03 which states, in part:
"We will interpret the meaning of "construction", as being the completion of construction
of the Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse including the roads and infrastructure
required. Final Plan Approval was issued on February 13, 2001. The effective date of
Ordinance 98-129 (REZ 904) was December 7, 1998 and "construction" of the proposed
development shall be completed by December 7, 2003."
in meeting the requirements of Condition E, construction of Lowe's Horne Irprovement
Warehouse, including the roads and infrastructure required for this project were completed on
November 21, 2003.
In light of the above we respectfully request your confirmation that Conditions D and E have
been met. We appreciate your assistance in this regard. Please do not hesitate to call me at 961-
