Clark) "NOTICE OF AN APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT AND VARIANCE FOR A SIGN ADVERTISING REAL ESTATE FOR -SALE Dear Sir or Madam: Pursuant to Chapter 3 of Hawaii County Code Section 3-22(bx9), notice is hereby given to you, as an owner, co-owner, lessee, co -lessee of record of real estate or an owner of record of a share in a cooperative apartment within 300 feet of the proposed location, of the following application for a permit and variance for a sign advertising real estate for sale within Kailua Kona. Applicant of Sign Permit: R- Clark Proposed Sign Location: Chainlink fence at the left -side entry to "Kona West" facing Kuakini Highway Address of Proposed Sign Location: "Kona West", 75-7680 Kuakini Highway, Kailua Kona, HI 96740 TMK of Proposed Sign Location: 3-7-5-6-31 Type of Sign: Site Sign (Second Site Sign for the TMK) Currently, Hawaii County Code Section 3-8(a)(1)(B) stipulates that any small, unlit sign not exceeding 2 square feet in area may be displayed without a permit once in a calendar year for a period of time not to exceed 30 consecutive days. The above -listed applicant for a sign permit is concurrently requesting a variance to this 30 -day time limitation for display, until such time as the real estate for sale is either sold or permanently withdrawn from the market. If you have an objection to the display of this planned real estate for -sale sign at the location indicated above, you should document your reasons for objection and send them to Dept of Public Works Building Division, 74-5044 Ane Keohokalole Highway, Building E, Kailua Kona, HI 96740. Sincerely, BY: Applicant's or Representative's Signature Date: RECEIVED OCT 2 G 2020 Sign Code Variance Application (8)(a -e) Written -Explanations: (Attachment to Sign Code Variance Application of R Clark) (8)(a) Granting the variance is necessitated by the fact that the Kona West Board of Directors will not allow a for -sale sign anywhere on the property. The Board is required to enforce the spirit of the Bylaws, which is to protect persons and property at Kona West, but could not provide reason(s) as to how a for -sale sign would violate the Bylaws. The applicant has documentation to prove that the Board was approached on the subject. (8)(b) Granting the variance will not adversely affect the rights of adjacent property owners or tenants because the applicant is merely requesting an extension of the 30 -day -per -calendar -year time limitation for signs that don't require a permit (Hawaii County Code 3-8(axl)(B)) . Per the Code, the applicant is requesting a variance for a single, small, unlit sign that will not exceed 2 square feet in area. The applicant is unable to determine how merely extending the time limit of an authorized sign for a temporary situation would adversely affect the rights of adjacent property owners or tenants. (8)(c) Granting the variance will not unreasonably violate the interest, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the public because the applicant is merely requesting an extension of the 30 -day -per -calendar - year time limitation for signs that don't require a permit. The sign will be affixed to a chainlink fence at the entry to Kona West, and the fence is about 2 feet high and embedded in a rockwall which is also about 2 feet high. Since the sign seems to fit the definition of a "ground sign" (Section 3-3(a)(14)), any lettering will not exceed 9 inches in height (Section 3-58(c)) and the sign will not exceed a height of 6 feet above ground -level (Section 3-59(aX2)). In addition, the sign will not be "constructed primarily of materials with a shiny, slick or reflective surface" (Section 3-61(a)(1)). The applicant is unable to determine how merely extending the time limit of an authorized sign would unreasonably violate the interest, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the public. (8)(d) A strict application of the terms of this chapter would create unnecessary hardship and practical difficulty on the applicant because of the Covid-19-created marketing limitations imposed on properties for sale. Earlier this year, the applicant's only advertising venue was a passive MLS listing, so the applicant missed an opportunity to sell the property in question as part of the IRS' 1031 Tax -Free Exchange guidelines, despite the fact that the [normally rigid] IRS granted a one-time extension of the Exchange timeline to 7/15/20. This missed opportunity also resulted in significant additional monetary losses to the applicant resulting from unit vacancy (about $11K from October 2019) and from fixed monthly costs (over $7K in association and leasehold fees, property taxes, insurance, cable and utilities). Under current Covid-19 guidelines, the decision of whether to conduct in-person open houses and caravans has been left to the discretion of each real estate agency. Under these circumstances, the applicant would need to contact each agency to determine what their current practice is, which still wouldn't guarantee the same practice in the future. Some real estate agencies are conducting virtual open houses instead, but the virtual open houses are not advertised to the general public as an in-person open house would be. Since a real estate agent said that leaseholds are especially challenging to sell, the applicant is trying to maximize all marketing venues in anticipation of greater tourism. (8)(e) Granting the variance will not constitute a grant of personal or special privilege inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties under identical ordinances, statutes Or rules because the applicant is merely requesting an extension of the 30 -day -per -calendar -year time limitation for signs that don't require a permit. The sign is fulfilling a Covid-created, temporary advertising need and will be removed promptly if the property in question is either sold or permanently withdrawn from the market. The applicant is unable to determine how merely extending the time limit of an authorized sign would constitute a grant of personal or special privilege inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties under identical ordinances, statutes or rules.

Mahalo Nui Loa, Roger and Linda Clark RECEIVE]) OCT � 6 2020 VIA CERTIFIED MAIL WITH SIGNATURE RECEIPT August 4, 2020 Ms. Kaiikookalani B. Chun, Trustee Re: Signature Request for Sign Permit and Variance Application for Unit 201 Dear Ms. Chun: We own unit 201 at Kona West, which has been on the market for sale since October 2019. We are sending you this letter because the Hawaii Dept of public Works requires your signature on 2 pages related to the Kailua Village Design Commission (KVDC} portion of our package requesting a real-estate for -sale sign permit and variance for our unit 201. After approval, we wish to place the sign on the chainlink fence at the left -side entry of Kona West facing Kuakini Highway (see photo)_ Due to Covid-19, the opportunities to advertise the unit for sale are very limited, so this sign would greatly help improve the exposure of the unit to the public passing the building. About 2 months ago, we asked the current Kona West Board of Directors for permission to put a for -sale sign in the green area to the left of the dumpster but they did not approve putting the for -sale sign anywhere on the property. Consequently, our only other option was to ask the Hawaii County Dept of Public Works for a sign permit and variance outside of the Koala West property. The variance will allow us to display the for -sale sign beyond the current 30 -day limit for signs that don't require a permit. Can you please sign in the flagged area that says "Recorded Land Owner" on the two pages that say at the top "Referral of Sign Permit Application for KVDC Review" and "Referral of Sign Variance Application for KVDC Review". Please return at least those 2 signed pages by Friday, September 0, which is a hill month for you to act. We will send weekly Certified Mail reminders to help you remember that we need the pages returned by September 4'h so that we can then proceed with our request to Hawaii County. If you do not want to sign the pages, please document why in a letter and return it before September 4th. If it would be easier for you, you may send your signed pages to us or your letter of denial to us via email at relarkl8wi _maii.eorn. Whether by US Mail or email, we are asking that you document your reason for not signing before September 0.

Chun. Please note that you will find attached copies of 4 letters (and accompanying register receipts) that were sent by us to Ms. Chun via USPS Certified Mail in which we requested her signature on the Referral forms for the KVDC. These letters were sent over a 1 -month period with a requirement for the Post Office to send us the form verifying her receipt of the letters. We never received any of the USPS verifications of receipt, even though we requested them from any adult who might have been tasked with picking up mail for Ms. Chun. We hope that our inability to obtain Ms. Chun's signature on the KVDC Referral forms will not prohibit the processing of our Sign Permit and Variance Applications. You will therefore find enclosed two checks for this purpose in the amount of $25 (for Permit) and $100 (for Variance). If our Applications for Sign Permit and Variance are not approved, can you please provide detailed reason(s) why so that we can attempt to correct any fault(s) if possible.
