STATEMENTS FROM THE PUBLIC REGARDING ITEMS ON AGENDA
Ken Melrose spoke in regards to two items: the first was Curtis Tyler's motion in
related to the Chapter 25 Subcommittee from the previous meeting held in
November. Ken Melrose suggested that the Action Committee consider not
approving that motion because he feels that the motion overcomplicates the
situation and will go on for years. The second item was related to MCX zoning, and
he asked the Action Committee that rather than approve residential as a permitted
use, that perhaps they consider suggesting that it be approved as a conditional use.
ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
1. Minutes from the Meeting on November 19th, 2014 Meeting
Keoki Schattauer brought up that he thought Hiram Rivera was present
during the November meeting, but he did not see Hiram's name listed in the
Roll Call on the minutes. A few of the other Action Committee members
thought that he was absent from the meeting, but Hiram confirmed his
attendance. It was the previous meeting he was absent from. Ali Catalano
noted this error, and will amend.

Hiram Rivera made a motion to approve this, and Barbara DeFranco
seconded this motion. The minutes were approved as amended unanimously.
PRESENTATIONS TO ACTION COMMITTEE:
1. Presentation from the Planning Department and their response on motions
approved from 2014.
Terry Dunlap read through a handout, which listed all actions taken in 2014
by the Kona CDP Action Committee.
Planning Director Duane Kanuha gave the Action Committee an update on a
few of the items:
On Items #6, 9, and 10 - On February 6th, there will be formal notice to all the
CDPs, ACs, council members, and the mayor that the General Plan
Comprehensive Review is going to start. The approach of this General Plan
Review is to revisit all of the CDPs and see what information is still current
and usable so all of it won't need to be recreated. The primary effort of this
update is to pull all of the CDPs together by policy statements.
The Planning Director then went on to discuss the possibility of a new
software package and answered questions from the Action Committee.
BUSINESS OF COMMITTEE: ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION AND ACTION
1. Greg Ogin asked if it would be okay if this item (which was originally the
second item under Business of Committee) be moved up and covered first.
All agreed.
Impact on Kona CDP development patterns: Planning Director's Bill before
County Council to amend Zoning Code to allow residential development in
MCX (mixed-use industrial) zoning district.
The Action Committee requested at a previous meeting to receive a copy of
the bill, the written recommendations of the two planning commissions, any
testimony, and the background report to review for discussion.
The Action Committee discussed their concerns, and the possibility of
delaying any action on this item until sufficient information has developed.
Discussion continued, and eventually the statement from the August 27th,
2014 meeting was read aloud. Greg Ogin asked the Planning Director if
anything else was needed for clarification, or if he needed to write a letter to
the Planning Director. The Planning Director confirmed no further
explanation was needed.
