Info Given at LPC 12-18-25 Meeting
Total Gross Area
• Gross Building Area: 11,918 square feet • Exterior Seating Area: 1,654 square feet
Total Gross Area: 13,571 square feet
Parking
• Parking ratio: 1 stall per 300 square feet
• 13,571 ÷ 300 = 46 required parking stalls
Parking OPTION: • On-site vehicle parking: 26 stalls
• Bicycle Racks (10): equivalent to 2 stalls • Off-site parking (King Kamehameha Hotel/Other): 18 stalls needed
Total Parking Provided: 46 stalls
Note: this is a potential option to resolve Parking stall requirement WITHOUT reducing
proposed building site Sq. Ft. Applicant reserves the option of reducing some of the proposed
building additions and/or outdoor seating areas thus requiring less parking spaces to be
obtained from outside landowners.
Landscape Area
• TMK area: 33,411 square feet • Required landscape area (20%): 3,233 square feet • Provided landscape area: 3,803 square feet
Summary
• Total gross area is 13,571 square feet, (or less if gross area is reduced) • Required parking of 46 stalls can be obtained with 18 stalls (or less) from outside landowners • Landscape area requirements are met
• This addendum supplements the SMA application and associated plan set
