In multiple conversations between the neighbors and Seamount Enterprises owned by Christopher Norrie, and his representative, Sally Rice, Mr. Norrie has made verbal commitments to the neighbors regarding the repair of and limiting access for the private road to the four (4) existing lots and the proposed seven (7) lots of the subdivision you are considering in Bill 129 (maximum 11 lots). The private road has already sustained damage beyond normal wear and tear caused by heavy vehicles used for Mr. Norrie's businesses and now will have to support excessive construction activity with the Agricultural Project District application. Recently, Mr. Norrie has verbally reneged on his promise to repair the existing damage caused by both heavy construction and agricultural equipment between lots 4B, 5B, 6B, 7B. Sandra Pechter Schutte in representing Seamount Enterprises, LLC has represented to Mr. Galen Kuba, Department of Public Works, and Ms. Virginia Goldstein, Planning Director, in letters dated May 29, 1997, that "there will not be any further roadway connected to this private road." Recently, Mr. Norrie has admitted verbally that an additional eight (8) lots owned by Mr. Norrie immediately adjacent to the subdivision have the right to use the private road. These eight (8) lots are 5 acres or larger and with ohana housing can thereby add sixteen (16) more houses for a potential total of twenty-seven (27) families using the already existing and damaged private road. Therefore, it is imperative that as a condition of approval and construction that: 1. Use of the private road be limited to the existing neighbors and the subject expansion of the Ka'awaloa Orchards subdivision for a total of eleven (11) lots. 2. After the private road grading, widening, and extension to lots subject to Bill 129 (lots 1A through 7A) of the subdivision, the private road from Napo'opo'o Road onward must be repaired and resurfaced in accordance with the guidelines incorporated in the Hawaii Statewide Uniform Design Manual for Streets and Highways for approval of the APD applicat/~ion. yC- ~ - erian Lievens Andrea Lievens Owners of Lot 46 of Ka'awaloa Orchards subdivision Lawrence Ford, Sr. Brenda Ford Owners of Lot 5B of Ka'awaloa Orchards subdivision Eric Curt Elizabeth Curtis Hers of Lo a'awatp Orchards subdivision nnar Freivalds Ba a Allen a Owners of Lot 7d of Ka'awaloa Orchards subdivision lfir Ida.
