After careful review of the subject permits and conditions, we find them reasonable and consistent with regard to the amount of work completed thus far and for the completion of the project. As such, we hereby approve the following amended conditions: 1. Amendment to Condition No. 4 of Use Permit No. 74. This relates to the provision of $3 million over a period of years. You are requesting the following schedule: a. The first million dollars of obligation is proposed to be satisfied through the provision of the community park and improvements thereon. The estimated cost breakdown of this project is: 1) 5 acres of land (5 x $125,000/acre) $ 625,000 2) Site work 100,000 3) Community Facility 250,000 4) Roadway Improvements 200,000 5) Water and Electrical System 50,000 Total $1,225,000 b. This would be completed prior to the issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the permanent clubhouse (which is presently under construction) or no later than December 31, 1998, whichever is sooner. EXHIBIT A Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 2 December 9, 1997 C. The applicant would be allowed to have a partial or "soft" opening of the golf course beginning January 1, 1998. d. The remaining $2 million would be paid out of escrow, in conjunction with the sale of each lot. Based on 100 lots, this would approximate $20,000 per lot. In either case, all of the required sum would be due and payable to the County of Hawaii before December 31, 2001, or approximately a maximum five (5) year period. 2. Conditions 2 to 5, Special Permit No. 93-24: These conditions relate to the completion of the expanded clubhouse facility, community recreation facility, and volunteer fire station prior to the opening of the golf course. Pursuant to Condition No. 11 of Special Permit No. 93-24, you are hereby granted a 1 year extension until December 31, 1998 to implement said requirements. 3. Conditions L, M, & N or Ordinance No. 94-78: These conditions relate to the impact fee requirement of the 1-acre subdivision. We find that your request to have the park and fire aspects of this requirement credited from your obligations in Special Permit No. 93-24 is acceptable. You have also requested that the excess of the fair share requirement be credited to your other obligations. In this case, it would be to your road, solid waste, and police obligations. We hereby deemed them to be reasonable, as the amount committed to the park and fire obligations exceed these requirements. Further, pursuant to Condition V, the required improvements must be complied with prior to December 31, 1998 or the opening of the permanent clubhouse, whichever occurs sooner. Based on the foregoing, please be informed that we find the proposal acceptable. If you find it equally acceptable, please inform us in writing as soon as possible. We can then proceed to prepare the necessary agreement to formalize the above understandings. Mr. Sidney Fuke Page 3 December 9, 1997 Should you have any questions, please feel welcome to contact our office.
