1. Financial Plan.
27
With the gracious loan of the laptop of Michele Otake, Dave Freudenberger provided the
28
Action Committee with an overview of the draft Public Facilities Finance Plan, emphasizing
29
that this is the first draft of the plan and is asking for feedback. The draft plan will eventually
30
be presented to the affected landowners, public sector, county staff and then to the council
31
for approval and ratification.
32
The draft plan provides a project description, financing tools, funding sources and
33
implementation plan. The plan also provides 3 scenarios that address alternative growth
34
strategies and how the financing tools could be utilized to assist in the understanding of the
35
financing tools of the draft plan. The plan identifies the amount needed for the various
36
projects adds up to approximately $882.1 million for the infrastructure projects required or
37
needed by the KCDP.

The assumptions utilized in development of the draft plan were put together by PBR Hawaii
39
and provided base-line data. (such as number of new dwellings in the CDP area, Amount of
40
square feet of commercial/industrial space, percentage of homes utilized as vacation or
41
second homes and the a ratio of residents per commercial/industrial space)
42
Dave also provided the Action Committee with some analysis of the finance plans as
43
compared with the current Impact Fee Ordinance (Bill 324) and Fair Share contributions.
44
Questions/Comments
45
Clarification on how the development of the infrastructure identified within the
46
finance plan would affect the value of the development and how that might affect the
47
analysis.
48
Alternate ways to build affordable housing
49
There is a need to include the affordable housing of DHHL lands in the calculations
50
since that impacts on the infrastructure needs.
51
What is the implementation timeline for the finance plan?
52
Clarification on private development impact fees and infrastructure requirements in
53
the analysis of the draft finance plan.
54
Clarification on the CFD Bonds, what they are, how they function and repercussions
55
for non-payment.

63
Land Use, Environmental & Cultural Resources
64
Suggestion was initially made for the Sub-committee to identify the known existing open
65
spaces to help visualize present conditions and test how the Green Belt 1 areas called for
66
in the VDG might already be at least partially in place.
67
Any future draft map of the open space plan needs to have: the Federal inventory of open
68
space, major trail inventory, drainage ways and additional desired open space. Next steps
69
for the sub-committee are to create an existing open space exhibit, format the method for
70
identifying desired open space elements and work with PD GPS division to develop
71
metadata files.
