If I can direct your attention to our presentation. This is <br />an amendment to Special Permit No. 09-97 (sic). This is an existing special permit for a one- <br />bedroom bed and breakfast that was approved back in 2009. The area of the subject application <br />is within the Puna district, more specifically, we’re looking at Leilani Estates Subdivision. <br />Access would be from the Pāhoa-Kalapana Road. Pāhoa would be on the upper left portion of <br />the map. Kalapana-Kaimu area would be more south from this area. Access would be on <br />Leilani Boulevard from the highway, and the subject property is near the rear of the subdivision <br />identified with a black outline. We’ll zoom in a little closer. As you can see, the colors on the <br />map are mainly light green which represent Agricultural – 1 acre zoning, County zoning. This is <br />on Ho‘okupu Street. <br /> <br />1 <br />EXHIBIT C <br /> <br /> <br />
