APPLICANT: THOMAS SHOCKLEY (REZ 06-000033)
Change of Zone from Agricultural 20-acre (A-20a) to Agricultural 10-acre (A-10a) for
approximately 21.389 acres of land. The property is located on the northwest corner of the
intersection of Huehue Street and Kaloko Drive, Kaloko Mauka Subdivision, Kaloko, North
Kona, Hawaii, TMK: 7-3-48: 5.
ALAMEDA:Agendaitemnumber3movingrightalong.ThomasShockley,Rezoning
06-000033. This is a Change of Zone request. Staff take it from there, Norman?
HAYASHI:Thank you Mr. Chair. This is another rezoning application within the
KalokoMaukaSubdivision.Allofyouarefamiliarwiththegenerallocation.Thisisthe
Kaloko Mauka Subdivision running mauka and this would be in the makai direction. This is
Highway190alsoreferredtotheHawaiiBeltRoad.KalokoDriveintersectswithHighway190
and provides access to the Kaloko Mauka Subdivision. The property is indicated by this orange
dotandisintheuppermostportionoftheKalokoMaukaSubdivisionattheelevationof
approximately 4,600 feet. The applicant intends to subdivide the property into 2 lots. One
wouldbe10acreinsizeandtheotherwouldbe11.3.SoagainthisisKalokoDriveandthis
would be going towards makai or to Highway 190 and this is Huehue Street. The property is
situated at the corner of Kaloko Drive and Huehue Street. As I indicated earlier the applicant
intends to subdivide the property into 2 lots in this general configuration. One lot would be at
the intersection of Kaloko Drive and Huehue Street and the other would be along Huehue Street.
There is an existing dwelling on the lot that has access off Huehue Street and thats indicated by
EXHIBIT C
1
this green dot on this particular map. The applicant does not, the owners do not intend to sell the
property or any of the lots. They intend to construct another single family dwelling on the front
lot or the lot that is at the corner of Kaloko Drive and Huehue Street. The existing roadway in
that area Kaloko Mauka Drive as well as Huehue Street has a right of way width of 80[-]feet
with a 22-foot pavement with grass shoulders. Just as a matter of information we showed this
information to the County Council and at their request they wanted to know the number of
dwellings that currently use the Kaloko Drive, Highway 190 intersection. Based on our count
from information received from the Real Property Tax Office records approximately 290
dwellings currently use this particular intersection and that would be the Kaloko Drive and
Highway 190 intersection. Of that approximately 270 dwellings are situated or have been
constructed within the Kaloko Mauka Subdivision. Based on previous rezoning application we
have since collected, and based on the conditions imposed on previous rezoning we have
collected and have cash on hand approximately, slightly over $400,000 for the intersection
improvement. We also received as part of a previous rezoning application theres a condition
that required the applicant to do a, basically a cost estimate for the intersection improvement.
That was completed back in December 15, 2005 and submitted to our office as well as the
Department of Public Works as to proposing the improvements at this particular intersection.
This report is currently, has been transmitted to the State Department of Transportation for their
inputandcomment.So,weareawaitingwordfromtheDepartmentofTransportationasto
whether they agree with these improvements proposed by one of the applicants in its study.
With that the Planning Directors recommending approval of this particular request and the
conditions that are proposed are similar to those that were previously granted for those properties
that were requesting rezoning to an Agricultural 10-acre zoning. Are there any questions?
ALAMEDA:Commissioner Watanabe?
WATANABE:For clarification Norman. Its my understanding that then the design is
complete for that but its subject to approval by the State? It has been submitted to the State
Department of Transportation?
HAYASHI:This is a design study that was submitted by one of the applicants that we
received the rezoning application for that area and that was a requirement of the zone change.
Now basically they had spelled out what their engineer had indicated as to the type of
improvements that would be required for this intersection. And that is what is being reviewed
now by the State Department of Transportation to determine whether these improvements are
feasible or not.
WATANABE:Okay. Thank you but that also included an estimate at that time yeah?
HAYASHI:Yes. The estimate that they had provided in their study was
approximately $300,000 +. So technically based on the amount of monies that weve already
collected and have in our account if those improvements are in fact what would be required then
perhaps we would have enough money to cover those improvements. However there were some
questions brought up at the County Council level that perhaps there should be some signalization
also at that particular intersection. So based on that you can see that additional will be required.
EXHIBIT C
2
WATANABE:Yeah. Exactly but that signalization would be up to the State no one else
right?
HAYASHI:Well that would be based on what the State would determine whether
thats necessary or not I guess, yes.
WATANABE:Thank you.
ALAMEDA:Commissioner Graham?
GRAHAM:Norman on the recommendations on page 4 about 60% of the way down
the page its mentioned about Office of State Planning and their 5 year State Land Use District
Boundary Review. Where the Water Resources Research Center, which I presume is part of
OSP recommends that the high rainfall area mauka of 2,000 feet be redesignated into the
conservationdistrict.Iguessifyoucouldgiveusjustalittlemore,youorMr.Yuengiveusa
little more background on that. Whats the timeline of that? Is that the sort of thing-. I guess the
only thing that comes into my mind as maybe a possible concern is that if it did get moved into
the conservation district then these kind of rezonings you know would not be allowed to happen.
So, is this something thats kind of getting in ahead of the timeline there? Just give me a little
background on that since Im not aware of it.
ALAMEDA:Mr. Director?
YUEN:Thank you. Well this was an initiative of the Office of State Planning in
the last 5-year boundary review, which was done at that time in 94. They recommended-, they
had a lot of recommendations. Im pretty familiar with it. My sister actually was a, the effort.
These recommendations were vigorously opposed by the mauka Kona-, this particular set of
recommendations were opposed by the mauka Kona landowners and did not go through. In
other words there is no pending initiative to do this. The follow-up to it was really the Kona-
Kohala Watershed Roundtable, which then produced a document of policy recommendations for
handling the upper areas. Then-, and this-, the actual effort to reclassify the mauka lands into the
conservation district was basically given up by mid-1990s. And then on the County level what
happened was 2 Council resolutions that weve generally been following in the Kaloko rezoning,
which was a- we should, in the upper elevations we should allow rezoning to Ag-10 to then
create 2 lots out of one but there would be conditions requiring a preservation of forest in
connection with that. And at the lower elevations you would allow the Ag-3 rezonings with
similar kinds of forest preservation conditions.
ALAMEDA:Commissioner Graham?
GRAHAM:Thank you.
ALAMEDA:Thank you. Commissioner Watanabe?
WATANABE:I have a question for the Director. You know, I read in the West Hawaii
Today that on a similar rezoning the Council had suggested that an additional condition, which
EXHIBIT C
3
essentially said the final subdivision approvalwould not be granted until either the passage of 2
years or the completion of improvements to Kaloko Drive intersection with Mamalahoa
Highway. You care to comment on that?
ALAMEDA:Director?
YUEN:I had to miss that meeting so I dont-, Mr. Hayashi do you want to talk
about what the Council did on that? I think they actually had a negative, in the end a negative
recommendation.
HAYASHI:At the Planning Committee meeting they voted not to recommend
approval. However I just read in the paper that the Council meeting was on Wednesday and I
believe based on the-, I only read the paper and based on what I read it says that the County
Council had recommended or had voted on first reading for a favorable, I mean to approve it.
AndIthinkoneoftheconditionsthattheyamendedwasCondition-,dealingwiththe
intersection improvement. I dont know exactly what the wording was on the proposed change
but I think they said something to the effect that the applicant cannot receive final subdivision
approval until-, for a period of 3 years or until the intersection has been improved. I dont know
whether it is or you know the timing as far as-.
WATANABE:I believe it was earlier of.
HAYASHI:So thats my understanding based on the newspaper article but other than
that I cant confirm what exactly they recommended.
YUEN:Yeah maybe Mr. Mooers might have a better idea cause I think he did go
to the Council meeting yeah?
ALAMEDA:Other Commissioners for questions for Mr. Hayashi? Seeing none will the
applicant or his representative please come forward? Let me just ask, will you be speaking
today?
SHOCKLEY:Im sorry?
ALAMEDA:Will you be speaking?
SHOCKLEY:Yes.
ALAMEDA:Okay Im going to swear you in then. Do you swear or affirm to tell the
truth now before the Hawaii County Planning Commission?
SHOCKLEY:I do.
ALAMEDA:Thank you sir. Could you please state your name and address for the
record?
EXHIBIT C

SHOCKLEY:My name is Tom Shockley andmy addressis 73-4370 Huehue Street,
Kaloko Mauka.
ALAMEDA:Thank you Mr. Shockley.
SHOCKLEY:Thank you.
ALAMEDA:Mr. Mooers I already swore you in and your name and address is already
on the record. You heard what Mr. Hayashi presented. If youd like to add anything or if you
missed anything. You also got the Departments recommendation with the conditions. Do you
have any thoughts or comments?
MOOERS:Yes. Obviously its a pretty standard application for the Kaloko Mauka.
The conditions are standard. To address Commissioner Watanabes question regarding the
actionbytheCouncil.TheCouncildidvotetosend,onfirstreading,tosupporttheChangeof
Zone with a condition that final subdivision approval not be granted until the intersection was
improved. But there was a 2-year limit and if a 2-year period passed and improvements were not
made then they could be granted final subdivision approval. There was some question about it. I
suspect the language will be modified again. As you know trying to draft language in a meeting
like this sometimes you dont get the clearest read on it. I think sometimes what were trying to
say and what actually happens may not be the same thing. But the intent is clearly that the
Council is anxious to put pressure on the Department of Transportation to make the
improvements. It appears if not a total amount of funds available theres a substantial amount of
money available to make improvements to the intersection. My understanding is that to this date
DOT has not accepted a particular design of improvements and until they do that then the
improvements cant be made. The applicants who were present which was the Gesling and
Totah applications. The five families who were involved in those applications testified before
the Council and they accepted that condition with the stipulation that it not run indefinitely. My
feelings in general are, is I dont normally advise clients to accept conditions that they cant
control. So in other words if you require the applicant to make an improvement or to do
something in order to make the zoning in effect, the subdivision in effect, thats not a problem
because clearly theyre controllable in destiny. But in a case where you put a condition on which
youre asking for a third party to perform is problematic. But in this case they agreed to accept it
because they recognized that this is an issue and they will be working diligently on their behalf
to try to get Department of Transportation to agree to what those improvements might be and
then to work with the Council to transfer the funds from the County to the State in order to pay
for those improvements.
ALAMEDA:Follow up Mr. Watanabe?
WATANABE:Yeah. So with that in mind would a revision or an additional condition
similar to that be acceptable?
MOOERS:Yes it would. The concern I had with the language that the Council
started inserting this is that they were trying to specify what the improvements would be. And, I
had a problem with that because its, the Council doesnt get to decide what the improvements
EXHIBIT C
5
will be it should be the Department of Transportation. And so the language I suggested was that
these improvements may include the sight line improvements, turn pockets, signalization,
illumination at the intersection. Now it may include all of those, it may include some. The
Department of Transportation in the past in my discussions with them have not supported
signalization at that intersection. So I didnt want to have language written so that the way it was
written the applicant, the intersection would be improved to DOT standards but the applicant still
couldnt get final subdivision approved because there was no signal placed there. So my
suggestion was that the language say that the applicant, yeah the applicants cannot get final
subdivision approval until the improvements are made to the intersection. That DOT determine
what those improvements are and they may include, and the reason by putting may include so
that the applicant come back later say oh gee well I would have never agreed if you told me it
had to be this or this or this. Unfortunately the way the language was written by the Council is
they have too many mays and not enough shalls and I know that thats created some
consternation and I know Mr. Gimpels going to testify that hes not happy with that. And I
wouldsaythatwewouldaccepttheconditionprovideditsclear,twothings,1isthatthe
improvements shall be made but 2 that the determination of how those improvements are made
and what those improvements consist of is determined by the Department of Transportation.
ALAMEDA:Commissioner Watanabe?
WATANABE:Yeah I wasnt implying that we should try to dictate what improvements
would be just that the improvements would be made to the intersection of Kaloko Drive but that
said you know I think it would be appropriate for the Director to comment on that, whether its
even appropriate for us to put that in. Im just thinking that you know since the Council has
already expressed an interest and this is really just a recommendation from this body it might
help that we kind of show them that we can appreciate the thought theyve put into it?
ALAMEDA:Mr. Director do you care to comment?
YUEN:Im neutral on the additional condition. Let me just, for point of
clarification, the cost estimate, the design that was done is not a full-blown design. But basically
a conceptual design for the Kaloko intersection involved shaving back the lava banks on either
side to improve the sight distance, widening the pavement, which would be possible because of
shaving the banks down creating turn pockets and I believe in both directions so that you would
have a- what we call refuge lane when you come out on the left turn and as well as a left turn
pocket. Im not a 100% sure of that but, and then that the intersection itself having a clear right
turn and left turn lane out of Kaloko. It does not include signalization. The cost estimate was to-
the instructions were to try to come in within whats been collected already in Kaloko which is
about $440,000 in cost so were a little bit below $400,000 for what I just described, something
like $400,000. So its doable with what has already been collected. The signalization, ballpark
would be another 4 or $500,000, which would translate to another 40 lots, 40 or 50 lots being
subdivided. The difficulty with the Council condition is that the payment of fair share is
triggered by final subdivision approval. So, if you need another, you need a little more money.
Now, there are lots in Kaloko that have rezoning conditions that make them pay this fair share
fee and have not gone to subdivision yet. So there will be some more money coming in. But, if
you do start tying this payment, tying final subdivision approval to the construction of the
EXHIBIT C
6
improvements then for these lots theres a little bit of a dilemma in that if you do need their
money to do the improvement they dont have to pay it and they cant, becausetheyre not
getting final subdivision approval. Thats the one concern that Id have there.
ALAMEDA:CommissionerWatanabe any follow-up on that?
WATANABE:No, let me ponder on that. I understand what youre saying.
ALAMEDA:Other Commissioners any thoughts? Commissioner Graham?
GRAHAM:I-. Weve discussed this a lot in the 3 years Ive been on the Commission
as these things come up and you know and I first started voting in support of such rezonings you
know I did understanding that there was a lot more parcels on the map that would be coming and
knowing that the intersection problem would worsen. And you know as Mr. Mooers says
conditionsareoutofcontrol.TheapplicantwhenthatmoneygetsspentandIdontparticularly
feel like I feel, I dont feel obligated to run piggy back with what the Council is proposing as a
way to sort of push the Department of Public Works. I think we just can indicate that you know
wed support Council efforts to get improvements made but I dont feel like we need to throw
that in as what theyre choosing to do as an additional condition of the ordinance that we are
recommending to them they will certainly deal with it as they wish at their time. But I dont
want to particularly piggy back onto their way of dealing with it.
ALAMEDA:Any questions for our applicants? Were not in discussion yet but I just
wanted to, before we go there. All right, seeing no further questions for our applicants or staff
we do have one testifier. Could you please be seated at this time and well call you back? And
Mr. Joel Gimpel? Please come forward. Mr. Gimpel could you please raise your right hand?
Thank you. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth now before the Hawaii County Planning
Commission?
GIMPEL:I do.
ALAMEDA:Thank you. Could you please state your name and address for the record?
GIMPEL:Yes my name is Joel Gimpel. I live at 73-4686 Hina Lani Street in Kailua
Kona. Im here representing the Kona Traffic Safety Committee.
ALAMEDA:Proceed.
GIMPEL:Thank you. Good morning. It still is morning and aloha. This application
to permit subdivision in Kaloko Mauka, is yet another in that series of Kaloko Mauka rezonings
that have to be considered in isolation because that must not be considered in isolation because
they have a cumulative effect on traffic conditions. And as we noted in other rezoning
applications for property in Kaloko Mauka, including those filed by Grover, Totah, Gesling, and
Smith, which together account for at least 11 additional lots, each would probably have only
minimal effect on traffic in the area, but when added to the lots already approved and lots sure to
be added in the future, the traffic volume and safety at the Kaloko Drive/Hwy 190 intersection
EXHIBIT C
7
will be severely affected. We continue to urge, therefore,that you carefully consider the
cumulative effect of these rezoning applications on traffic volume and safety in evaluating this
and other Kaloko Mauka applications. And we were pleased that the Councils Planning
Committee, at its April 4 meeting, agreed with the concerns we expressed in our testimony and
voted decisively to send the Totah and Gesling rezoning applications to the Council with
negative recommendations. But we were dismayed to learn that last Wednesday, the Council, by
vote of five to three, approved both applications at first reading with amendments providing that
the applicants cant receive final subdivision approval for two years or until the State and County
improve the intersection, whichever is less, and that the improvements may include restriping,
channelization, improving sight lines and signalization, etc. Those conditions are unacceptable.
First, because setting a two-year time limit for State and County action, without establishing any
incentive for that action wont accomplish anything. We believe that the way to get action is to
remove the time limit, thereby giving the applicants an incentive to push for State and County
action. And second, that the words may include are permissive, not mandatory, and can be
construedasmeaningmightnotincludeanyofthelistedtasks.Accordingly,weurgethatmay
be changed to the mandatory shall so that the condition provides that final subdivision approval
shall not be granted until the Kaloko Drive/Hwy 190 intersection is improved, and that such
improvements shall include if approved by the Department of Transportation, restriping,
channelization, improving sight lines, signalization, etc. Weve also remarked, in commenting
on prior applications for rezoning in the area, that the cumulative effect of these rezonings will
alter watershed characteristics and affect runoff which, as recently experienced on other islands,
can lead to traffic safety concerns such as road closures and washouts, along with long delays in
traffic in impassible areas. We note that the Kona Soil and Water Conservation Service hasnt
mapped mauka flood areas in West Hawaii due to a lack of funding support. So, what to do?
Should you conduct business as usual and recommend that the rezoning be approved in the face
of the Councils clear reluctance to do so until the traffic situation in West Hawaii improves, and
in the hope that the County and State will, sometime within the next two years, perhaps after a
fatal collision, decide that its time to do something? Or should we say, stop! No subdivision
will be allowed or occupancy permits issued in Kaloko Mauka until the needed traffic signal is
operating, and provisions for traffic signals, including conduits and footings, etc., are installed,
or at least until the appropriate and needed improvements are scheduled or made as determined
by the State Department of Transportation. We also recommend that no subdivision approvals
be granted until the County Council enacts an ordinance to require payment of impact fees. The
County is out of compliance with a Statute thats required that ordinance for over 10 years. That,
we believe, is the best way to assure that vital infrastructure improvements that promote safety
will be funded and provided. Finally, we urge that you remember that rezoning is a privilege and
not a right. Approvals that should be granted only if the benefit to the community outweighs the
disadvantages. In this case, until the Kaloko Drive/Hwy 190 intersection is made safe, we fail to
see the benefit of this and other Kaloko Mauka rezonings to the community. Thanks for the
opportunity to comment and Ill be happy to answer any questions. Thank you.
ALAMEDA:Thank you. Any questions for Mr. Gimpel? Seeing none, thank you very
much for your testimony appreciate it. Will the applicant or representative please return? Mr.
Mooers, Mr. Shockley you heard the testimony do you have any comment?
EXHIBIT C
8
MOOERS:Just a couple of points Id like to make. First of all in the action by the
Council one of the issues was considered waswhat the real impacts of these rezonings are. And
in that case it became very apparent after testimony from the applicants that there was no impact
because there was going to be no increase in the number of cars that were going there. In one
case it was a CPR that was being converted to sub-divided lots. And in the other case the
applicant was desirous to build a house for his 87 year old father who neither has a drivers
license or an automobile. I think you do need to look at cumulative impacts. In this case the
owners who are sitting next to me have a home at the top of Kaloko Mauka. They are now
divorced and they would each like to have a house on each lot. The number of people going up
and down Kaloko Mauka will not change. As far as Mr. Gimpels comments about the incentive
for State and County action, my belief is that the incentive should be that theyre here to serve
the public and that they have repeatedly noted that, that intersection is not safe and that, that
incentive should be enough for them to take action. We shall see if these applicants have any
influence on the bureaucracy of the Department of Transportation or not. I would suggest that
eithertheCommissionortheDepartmentortheCouncilwouldhavefargreaterinfluencethana
group of 4 or 5 random you know individuals from the community. Clearly the incentive is there
for all of us, whether or not these rezonings are granted to have them make the improvements to
that intersection. And I know I personally am making efforts to meet with representatives of the
Department of Transportation to try to find maybe other incentives for them to make these
improvements. The last point I guess I would make when the, Mr. Gimpel indicated that there
should be a public benefit and I think there are public benefits to this Change of Zone
Application. The public benefits are those that are identified in the resolution and that is number
1, the preservation of 80% of the forest where there are no conditions presently. That
preservation is not only for a watershed but also for a habitat for native species. And the second
thing, which is what were talking about today, is the solution to correcting this intersection
deficiency and that is that these rezonings are required to pay roughly $10,000 per lot toward that
intersection improvement. While the State has consistently commented that the intersection is a
problem they have never placed this project on their STIP, their State Transportation
Improvement Project list. So, while it may be insufficient in design according to their
comments, they have not chosen to place it anywhere on their improvement project list. So in
other words they dont have a project, theyre not funding it. So therefore the solution to this
problem has been identified by the Council and by the Commission to be that we assess a fee of
these rezonings and apply that fee toward making those improvements. So the benefits of this
Change of Zone in addition to the preservation of 80% of the forest is to provide funding for this
intersection improvement.
ALAMEDA:Thank you Mr. Mooers. Any questions for our applicant or its
representative Mr. Mooers before we go into a discussion mode? Seeing none. Pleasure of the
Commissioners? Excuse me? Im not sure what the protocol might be given that you came a
little late so let me ask Mr. Torigoe. The applicants representative, actually the applicant would
like to say a few words. Does that fit protocol or?
TORIGOE:Yeah. Are what stage are we at?
ALAMEDA:Actually were moving into discussion phase but I guess before then we
could give her an opportunity to say something? Could you please raise your right hand? All

far before we-.
CHOQUETTE:Thank you. Forgive my timing I had a doctors appointment I couldnt
cancel. My name is Lisa Choquette. And I think you probably, Tom and I were married for 17
years. We ran a business in Kona for 30 years.
ALAMEDA:Could you please state your address as well for the record?
CHOQUETTE:Okay.73-1097OluOluStreet,Kailua-Kona,Hawaii96740.
ALAMEDA:Allright,goahead.
CHOQUETTE:Whenwegotdivorcedwestillhadthebusinesstogether.Wecouldnot
afford to split our finances as one short of the other. We were able to sell our business last fall
and it is time for us to separate our finances. Our biggest asset is the Kaloko Mauka property
and home. So we basically have 3 choices. I can legally build a farm dwelling on that and it
would not change any density up there at all. Im up and down there every day when I am here.
I now have business interests in the Solomon Islands to help take care of our joint custody pets.
So it wouldnt change the traffic at all. Legally I can put another dwelling so it would not
change any dwelling density and I-. And the other option if we cannot legally own one half each
which at this point in our lives we have to think about Wills unfortunately. And to leave a
property so encumbered to those who might come after us could cause just horrendous legal
problems that neither one of us want to get into. So our only other choice is to sell the property
outright, which would probably go to someone coming in from the mainland who would create
far more traffic than we do. And at (inaudible), it would put Tom at the age of 71 out of his
home. Luckily we are really good friends. Do we want to live together in the same house, not
quite that good friends. But do we want be nearby and keep an eye on each other, yes we do. So
what were asking is totally consistent with what has been done in the area in the past. So I just
wanted to add my 10 cents worth for inflation and thank you very, very much for your attention.
And I hope youll grant us our request.
ALAMEDA:Thank you for coming. Thank you for sharing. Any questions? All right,
fellow Commissioners we are in a discussion mode. Anybody would like to comment further or
put your opinion on the table or potentially make a motion and then discuss. Whats your
pleasure? Commissioner Watanabe?
WATANABE:I move that a favorable recommendation for Change of Zone from
Agricultural 20 acre to Agricultural 10 acre REZ 06-000033 be forwarded to the County Council
