FOR YOUR INFORMATION, PRESENTATION IS AVAILABLE ONLINE AS MISCELLANEOUS COMMUNICATION 137, 2026. >>Testifier: THANK YOU CHAIR. JIM HAYES. WITH FINANCE SOLUTIONS. AGENT FOR THE APPLICANT. SEEM TO BE HAVING A TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY WITH THE PRESENTATION. CLICKER DOESN'T WORK. THANK YOU. SO THE PROJECT INVOLVES TWO SHORELINE PARCELS, IN WAIALUA AREA. THEY'RE IN THE R7.5 DISTRICT. AND HAVE TBHN USE FOR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR MANY DECADE YOU. HAVE BEEN IN ALWAYS. DECADES THIS SHOWS CURRENT DEVELOPMENT ON THE PARCELS. CON SENATE CYSTING SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS. CONSISTING. IT EXISTING DWELLINGS REMOVED AND NEW DEVELOPMENT PROPOSED BUILT AFTER THAT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THIS PHOTO, RESIDENTIAL AREAS SURROUND IT AND HAVE SIMILAR DEVELOPMENT WITH UP TO TWO DWELLINGS PER LOT AS TYPICAL LOOKING AT SEA LEVEL RISE, AND EXPOSURES TO HAZARD ON THE SHORELINE, SUBSTANTIAL PART OF THE PROJECT AREA IS WITHIN THE SEA LEVEL RISE EXPOSURE AREA. BUT THE SEA LEVEL RISE EROSION HAZARD IS CON 49erED TO THE SHORELINE AREA. CONFINED SHORELINE AREA AND A SHORELINE SETBACK AREA AND PROJECT WILL BE BEHIND THOSE HAZARD AREAS FOR EROSION. AND THE FOUNDATION ELEMENTS OF STRUCTURES WILL BE BUILT MORE SUBSTANTIALLY TO ADDRESS THE SEA LEVEL RISE EXPOSURE AREA HAZARDS. EXPOSURE HAZARDS ARE PRIMARILY ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH WASH OF WAVES. THIS ILLUSTRATES PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT. CONSISTING OF TWO SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS ON EACH PARCEL. WITH AMPLE PARKING AREAS. AND INDIVIDUAL WASTEWATER SYSTEMS TO MANAGE THE DOMESTIC WASTE FROM BOTH PARCELS. AND I WAS LISTENING TO THE VERBAL MODIFICATION OR PROPOSAL TO THE RESOLUTION AND I THINK THERE WAS A LITTLE MISUNDERSTANDING. OUR REQUEST WAS TO MODIFY CONDITION G1, NOT K-1. SO G1 IS THE CONDITION REGARDINGEL ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORIC RESOURCES. AND OUR REQUEST WAS TO MODIFY THE LANGUAGE IN G1 SO THAT IT WAS ABOUT GROUND DISTURBANCE AND PROJECT CONSTRUCTION, NOT OCCURRING PRIOR TO RECEIVING LETTER FROM THE STATE HISTORIC PRESERVATION DIVISION. SOMETHING TO DISCUSS THAT AND ANY QUESTIONS COUNCIL MAY HAVE. THANK YOU. IWILLING TO. >>Chair Kia'aina: CHAIR WOULD LIKE CALL A BRIEF RECESS. THANK YOU.

AND THAT WAS IN CONCERT WITH ALL OF THE APPROPRIATE AGENCY, AS WELL AS COUNCIL HERE FOR THE CITY COUNCIL. SO MEMBERS, AFTER PRESENTATION, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? FOR THE TESTIFIER? COUNCILMEMBER CORDERO. >>Councilmember Cordero: THANK YOU. MR. HAYES I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL WASTEWATER SYSTEMS. YOU MENTIONED THAT BOTH PARCELS IS HAVE IT A KNOW THAT YOU MENTIONED, HOW DOES IT EXPAND OR HOW DOES IT LIKE GET, WHAT IS THE CONNECT TO? >>Testifier: SO THE APPLICANT WILL BE SEEK PERMITS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH WASTEWATER BRANCH, FOR INDIVIDUAL WASTEWATER SYSTEMS, AND DON'T HAVE THE DIAGRAM UP ANY MORE. MORE MAUKA SECTION PROPERTY, BETWEEN TWO DWELLINGS, THEY'LL BE LEACH FIELDS AND SEPTIC TANKERS. ON BOTH PROPERTIES. >>Councilmember Cordero: BETWEEN FOR THESE LINES ARE THEN? >>Testifier: IT WILL BE ESSENTIALLY IN THE -- CENTRAL PART OF THE -- DID YEAH. SO BEHIND THE SHORELINE DWELLING, BUT IN FRONT OF THE ROADSIDE DWELLING. >>Councilmember Cordero: I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN. THANK YOU. THAT HELPS FOR CLARIFICATION. THANK YOU MR. HAYES. >>Chair Kia'aina: COUNCILMEMBER OKIMOTO. >>Councilmember Okimoto: THANK YOU CHAIR. REALLY QUICK QUESTION. JUST BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN TALKING SO MUCH ABOUT THE FLOODS IN WAIALUA. WAS THERE PROPERTY IMPACT BY RECENT STORMS? >>Testifier: I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT ASK THAT QUESTION. I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE TO SEE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT MOST OF THE SHORELINE PROPERTIES WERE NOT ADVERSELY AFFECTED. AND THAT'S MORE THE PROPERTIES BEHIND THE SAN DUNES THAT WERE AFFECTED SAND DUNES. THIS PROPERTY IS THE VE SNROOD ZONE WHICH IS RELATED FLOOD ZONE WHICH IS RELATED TO DO HIGH WAVES. IT'S NOT IN THE AE FLOOD ZONE SOACIALGED MORE WITH A ASSOCIATED MORE STREAM FLOODING I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WAS ADVERSELY EFFECTED. >>Councilmember Okimoto: I APPRECIATE THE DIAGRAM. YOU TALKED ABOUT FLOOD. SEA LEVEL RISE AND SHORELINE EROSION. WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT GOING TO PUTTING ANOTHER RESIDENT OR HOME IN AREA WHERE THEY WOULD BE. ELEL AFFECTED BY WEATHER. >>Testifier: THESE ARE SIDED SPECIFICALLY BEHIND THE SHORELINE EROSION AREAS. AND THEY ARE IN THE WHAT WE CALL SEA LEVEL RISE EXPOSURE AREA BUT THAT ENTIRE AREA IS UNTIL AREA. AND THERE ARE IN THAT AREA AND FOUNDATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS THAT ARE INCORPORATED INTO DESIGN. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE FROM THOSE KIND OF HAZARDs. >>Councilmember Okimoto: THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >>Chair Kia'aina: E'O THANK YOU CHAIR. >>Chair Kia'aina: THANK YOU.

BETWEEN ERR WE'RE WILLING TO CONSIDER THAT. WE HAVE DONE ENVIRONMENTAL OR ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVENTORY STUDY WITH TRENCHING AND HAVE NOTE ENCOUNTERED ANY IWI KUPUNA.

AND EFFICIENT THAT I CAN ONLY ARER ADD THAT THE DEPARTMENT REVIEWED THE RESOLUTION AND THE DRAFT BILL ASSOCIATED WITH THAT AND HAD A ROBUST DISCUSSION ABOUT COMMUNITY BENEFITS AND GRAY WATER REUSE. AND FOUND THAT THE PROPOSAL INITIAL ED BY COUNCILMEMBER WEYER WAS A GOOD YOU HAD ONE AND GRAY WATER REUSE, CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL FOR NEIGHBORHOODS BECAUSE IN THOSE AREAS WHERE ADDITIONAL HEIGHT AND DESTINY IS PROPOSED, DENSITY USE OF GRAY WATER, CAN P KEEP MORE POTTEDDABLE WATER AVAILABLE FOR OTHER DEVELOPMENTS WITHIN THAT AREA. ALSO, THE CONFORMING AMENDMENTS ARE AS YOU SAID, ALREADY IN CERTAIN SECTIONS. OF THE T.O.D. SPECIAL DISTRICT CODE. AND NOW WILL BE REFLECTED IN ALL AMICABLE SECTIONS. SO THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS. DEPARTMENT SUPPORTS THIS PAROLE AND WE'LL AVAILABLE FOR ANY DISSH-THIS PROPOSAL AND AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS THIS IF YOU HAVE ANY. >>Chair Kia'aina: ANY QUESTIONS? >>Councilmember Cordero: THANK YOU CHAIR. I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT NOT SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE GRAY WATER ITSELF, OR THE PROPOSAL, BUT SPECIFIC PLANNING COMMISSION AND IF THEY MADE ANY AMENDMENTS. I KNOW WHEN I WAS TALKING TO A LOT OF THEEL SUPPOSED NOT SUPPOSED BUT NOW, THOSE ON THE PLANNING COMMISSION, THAT THEY REALLY TALK A FINE-TOOTH COMB TO THESE AND MAKE PROPER AMENDMENTS BEFORE COMING BACK TO THE COUNCIL ICHT WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT. >>Chair Kia'aina: THANK YOU FOR THAT QUESTION. >>Testifier: THE PLANNING COMMISSION DIDN'T RECOMMEND ANY CHANGES ON THIS PARTICULAR BILL. BUT YOU'RE RIGHT. I THINK THAT WE'VE BEEN BEFORE THEM ALREADY IN THIS END OF 2025 BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR WHICH I THINK THREE SEPARATE BILL. BEEN VERY INTERACTIVE AND HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS. SO FOR THIS ONE HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CONFORMING AMENDMENTS BECAUSE THEY LOOK A LITTLE BIT CONFUSING. LOOK LIKE A POLICY CHANGE. BUT THEY'RE IN FACT NOT A POLICY CHANGE. SO THAT WAS THE KIND OF BULK OF THEIR CONCUSSION DISCUSSION ON THIS ONE. IT. >>Councilmember Cordero: GREAT TO HEAR. THANK YOU. AND I DO LOOK FORWARD TO THEIR MORE IN DEPTH DISCUSSION THEN POSSIBLE AMENDMENTS WHETHER IT BECOMES IT BEFORE THE COUNCIL. THANK YOU. CHAIR KIA'AINA. >>Chair Kia'aina: VICE CHAIR WATERS. >>Councilmember Waters: THANK YOU SO MUCH. STRONG SUPPORT. GREAT IDEA. WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE MORE DEVELOPERS TO DO THIS TYPE OF TECHNOLOGY. EXCHANGE FOR DOING GRAY WATER, TYPICALLY, GET INCREASED HEIGHT AND DENSITY. CORRECT? >>Testifier: GRAY WATER COULD BE ONE COMMUNITY BENEFIT IN A PAC AJ OF COMMUNITY BENEFITS. YEAH. OFTEN IS RELATED TO ADDITIONAL HEIGHT AND DENSITY. >>Councilmember Waters: AMENDING CHAPTER 21, IS THAT. >>Testifier: THAT'S RIGHT. EL. >>Councilmember Waters: WE HAVEN'T DONE ONE IN A WHILE. BUT WE WORKED HARD ON THE ALA MOANA T.O.D. PLAN. GOT THE BUNCH OF T.O.D. PLANS. HOW DOES THIS AFFECT ALL OF THOSE PLANS THAT DON'T INCLUDE THIS AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. DO WE HAVE TO GO AHEAD AMEND ALL OF THOSE COMMUNITY PLANS NOW? >>Testifier: I DON'T BELIEVE THOSE COMMUNITY PLANS WOULD HAVE TO BE AMENDED. WE DO HAVE THE T.O.D. ADMINISTRATOR HERE. EL AND MAY BE I CAN ASK HIM IF HE HAS ANY COMMENT ON THAT. BUT FOR PURPOSES OF THE T.O.D. PEPERMITS LUO WOULD APPLY EVERY TRANSIT STATION AREA. >>Councilmember Waters: YEAH. TIM IS SAYING THAT'S FINE. >>Councilmember Waters: THIS WOULD, HATE TO USE THE WORD TRUMP COMMUNITY BENEFIT, COMMUNITY PLANS IS THAT RIGHT? >>Testifier: SUPERSEDE MAYBE BETTER WORD. GOING TO HAND THIS OVER TO FILM. TIM STRIETS ACTING T.O.D. ADMINISTRATOR SO, COME INTO PLAY SPECIAL DISTRICT OR INTERIM PERMIT IT'S HAVE TO BEING GENERALLY CONSISTENT WITH THE PLAN. IF WHAT YOU'RE PROPOSING PART OF THIS BILL, SHOULD BE ADOPTED. THEN IT SHINING E'O CHANGE DINNER CHANGES DID HE INITIAL OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT REFERRED TO IN THE PLAN. BY HAVING, THE DEFINITION LIST GRAY WATER, THESE PERMITS WOULD STILL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE PLANS THAT MENTIONED COMMUNITY BENEFITS. EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT SPECIFICALLY MENTIONING GRAY WATER. WORKED MOANALUA T.O.D. PLAN YEARS AGO AND IN THAT PLAN, AFFORDABLE HOUSING WAS NOT INCLUDED AS A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. LOOK AT CHAPTER 21, AFFORDABLE HOUSING ISEL CONSIDERED A COMMUNITY BENEFIT. NO REDS TO GET INCREASED HEIGHT AND DENSITY. IN ORDER TO GET. RIGHT? >>Testifer: COMMUNITY I COMMUNITY BENEFITS OPEN-ENDED. EL COMMUNITY BENEFIT. >>Councilmember Waters: COMMENSURATE COMMUNITY BENEFIT. >>Testifier: RIGHT. DEVELOPER CAN ALSO PROPOSE WHAT THEY CONSIDER BENEFIT AND AGENCY WILL EVALUATE THAT AND MAKE A RECOMMENDATION. WHAT ORGS U. >>Councilmember Waters: ONE DEVELOPER SAYING BALCONY ON THE APARTMENT WAS OPEN SPACE. REMEMBER THAT? RIDICULOUS. >>Testifier: I AGREE. >>Councilmember Waters: LASTLY PAGE 3, THIS IS IN HERE. CHANGING THE VERBIAGE. FINALLY DRI DWELLING UNITS MOWSE REMAIN AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR 30 YEARS. ALREADY IN THE ORDINANCE. THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING BILLEL 11. DOES THIS 30 YEAR RECAN REQUIREMENT REALLY WORK? IS THAT SOMETHING WE SHOULD CHANGE HERE AND NOW? DISCUSSIONS PART OF BROADER AFFORDABLE HOUSING STRATEGY OVERHAUL. WHETHERRER THAT COMPONENT IS WORKING. BET IRCOUGARS R CONSIDERATION LOOK AT ALL REQUIREMENTS COMPREHENSIVELY. >>Councilmember Waters: DEVELOPER COMES BEFORE US WITH A TIED PLANNED A WANTS TO DO AFFORDABLE HOUSING,EL T.O.D. PLAN. YOU HAVE TO KEEP IT AFFORDABLE FOR TEN YEARS? OR THAT VIOLATES CHAPTER 21? >>Testifier: SO IF THEY CAME IN FOR PLAN DEVELOPMENT TRANSIT PERMIT, ASSUMING AMENDMENTS THAT ARE IN THIS BILL, ARE ADOPTED. THEY WOULD NEED TO FOLLOW THAT. BUT I BELIEVE WITHOUT LOOKING AT THAT ACTUAL LANGUAGE, THAT WOULD BE RELATED TO THE BONE US PORTION. SO WE NEED TO FULFILL WHAT THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING REQUIREMENT UNDER CHAPTER 29 REQUIRES. AND THEN ANYTHING REPROVIDING ABOVE THAT, COULD BE CONSIDERED AFFORDABLE UNIT. I BELIEVE THAT IS WHERE THAT LANGUAGE COMES INTO PLAY. AND THEN IF IT'S CONSIDERED, AND THEN IF THE PROJECT INCLUDES HOTEL, COMPONENT, BECAUSE THAT IS NOT A TRIGGER UNDER CHAPTER 29. >>Councilmember Waters: RIGHT. WHY WOULD WE WANT ATTACH AFFORDABLE UNITS TO A HOTEL? >>Testifier: THAT I BELIEVE WAS CONTEMPLATED BY CITY COUNCIL UNDER PRIOR INTERIM PLAN DEVELOPMENT TRANSIT PERMITS THIS. IS JUST CARRYING OVER THAT ARE SAME. >>Councilmember Waters: PREVIOUS COUNCIL? WHAT IS THE DEPARTMENT'S VIEW ON THAT? IS THAT RATIONALE TO PUT AFFORDABLE UNITS ON A HOTEL? TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT USES. >>Testifier: OKAY. SO LIZ WAS MENTIONING THAT I THINK RECALL GENESIS WAS OF THAT CONDO HOTEL UNITS THAT RULE SOMEWHAT PREVALENT THROUGHOUT ALA MOANA LOOKED AND ACT ABLGD ACTED LIKE HOTEL. >>Councilmember Waters: STILL. >>Testifier: EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T. >>Councilmember Waters: I THINK GOOD IDEA TO ATTACH AFFORDABLE HOUSING TO HOTELS? OR CONDO HOTEL TELEPHONE TELEPHO GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER. YES OR NO? >>Testifier: MAYBE CHAIR WE SHOULD. >>Councilmember Waters: MAYBE NOT IN IN BILL, DEALING WITH GRAY WATER. WHICH IS GREAT. I DON'T WANT TO HEALED HOLD THAT UP. HOLIDAY HE THAT UP. AT THE SAME TIME, SOMETHING WE GOT TO LOOK AT. I DON'T WANT TO HOLD THAT UP. RIGHT? , BECAUSE MEETING WITH OTHER PEOPLER W R REGARDING THIS AND I JUST DON'T SEE THE RATIONALE HERE. >>Testifier: SOMETHING WE COULD CERTAINLY LOOK INTO. I DON'T HAVE A DEPARTMENTAL POSITION. BUT WE COULD ASK OUR DIRECTORRER AND SEE. >>Councilmember Waters: SORRY P OUT YOU ON THE SPOT. PUT LIZ ON THE SPOT. DO YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE DEPARTMENT WITH REGARD TO WHETHER OR NOT WE SHOULD MAKE IT REQUIREMENT THAT YOU PUTEL AFFORDABLE HOUSING AS A REQUIREMENT FOR HOTEL? >>Testifier: I DON'T HAVE AUTHORITY TO SET UP A POLICY POSITION RIGHT NOW ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE. I WILL SAY THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WAS CONCERN TO THE PROFESSION COUNCIL IS IDEA THAT PREVIOUS COUNCIL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT TRANSIT PERMIT MIGHT CHOOSE CONDO HOTEL UNITS THAT LOOKED AND BEHAVED ACTED JUST LIKE REGULAR UNITS. IN ORDER TO AVOID THINGS LIKE PARK DEDICATION REQUIREMENTS, OR AFFORDABLE HOUSING REQUIREMENTS. SO WHAT THE CONCERN OF THE COUNCIL AT THAT TIME WAS THAT IF THEY LABELED IT HOTEL UNITS, THEN THEY DIDN'T NEED TO PROVIDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. AND CERTAIN PROJECTS, THE HOTEL UNITS WERE LARGER THAN THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS. SO THERE WAS A BIG DISCUSSION OF EQUITY AT THE TIME. I DO THINK THAT IS ESPECIALLY WITH DEPARTMENT OF HOUSE AND LAND MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW OF THE LIKE OUR GLOBAL AFFORDABLE HOUSING POLICIES, WITHIN THE CITY, THIS IS ONE OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING POLICY THAT CAN BE REVISITED. >>Councilmember Waters: DO YOU KNOW HOW WE TAX CONDO-TELS? ARE THEY TAXED AT THE RESORT RATE? >>Testifier: I DON'T KNOW BUT I BELIEVE SO. >>Councilmember Waters: WHAT IF INDIVIDUALSEL APARTMENT OWNERS DEDICATED THEIR CONDO-TEL UNIT TO RESIDENTIAL? I MEAN, MAYBE IT'S SIMPLE. JUST SAY IF IT YOU'RE GOING TO BUILD CONDO-TEL YOU'RE IN THE RESORT CATEGORY. RIGHT? >>Testifier: I'M NOT SURE HOW THE TAXATION APPLIES NECESSARILY. WATERS DOES A CONDO-TEL UNIT RENT SHORT-TERM? TURN IT INTO TVU? >>Testifier: BY DEFINITION, HOTEL UNIT IS FOR SHORT-TERM RENTALS. >>Councilmember Waters: SO THEY COULD BE POSSIBLY THREE DIFFERENT TAX CATEGORIES. CONDO-TEL. >>Testifier: I BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR TAX PURPOSES A TVU. BECAUSE THE HOTEL UNIT IN FACT IS SUPPOSED TO BE SHORT-TERM RENTALLED OR AVAILABLE FOR SHORT-TERM RENTALS, FOR SOMETHING LIKE 270 DAYS OF THE YEAR. >>Councilmember Waters: THANK YOU CHAIR. FOR ALLOWING ME GO THERE. AGAIN, I DON'T WANT TO HOLD UP THIS BILL. THIS IS A GOOD BILL. BUT IT'S SOMETHING WE MIGHT WANT TO LOOK AT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANSWERS. THANK YOU. I HAVE JUST A FEW QUESTIONS. FOR DPP. STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH HAVE RULES IN PLACE TO ENSURE THAT'S WATER QUALITY OF THE GRAY WATER REUSE SYSTEMS IS CLOSELY MONITORED FOR RESIDENT SAFETY? >>Testifier: YES. I BELIEVE SO.

AND HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN CONFIRM THIS BILL MOVES FORWARD. >>Testifier: YES. >>Chair Kia'aina: SECOND IF RESIDENTS INADVERTENTLY OR INTENTIONALLY DISTANT POTUS OF HAZARD WASTE IN KISS POSE OF BATHROOM SINK. DISPOSE OF -- OR LAUNDERED SOILED I'M GREAT WATER REUSE SYSTEMS GENERALLY ABLE TO TREAT SUCH CONTAMINANTS? >>Testifier: I BELIEVE SO. YES. ANOTHER THING THAT WE CAN FURTHER LOOK INTO. FOR THE NEXT HEARING. >>Chair Kia'aina: THANK YOU. DO YOU HAVE ANY MEMBERS DO YOU EVER ANY OTHER QUESTIONER OR DISCUSSION BEFORE I MAKE MY RECOMMENDATION? COUNCILMEMBER CORDERO. >>Councilmember Cordero: THANK YOU CHAIR. I DO HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION. IF THAT IS POSSIBLE TO ASK. >>Chair Kia'aina: FOR THIS ISSUE? >>Testifier: FOR THIS CLEAN WATER? >>Councilmember Cordero: YES. IS THAT OKAY? >>Chair Kia'aina: NO. >>Testifier: >>Councilmember Cordero: WANT ANOTHER DISCUSSION. >>Chair Kia'aina: SURE.

WONDERING HOW YOU'VE BEEN ABLE TO FACILITATE THAT BEFORE COMES BACK TO THE COUNCIL? >>Testifier: I MEAN, FACILITATE I GUESS ELABORATE WHAT YOU MEAN BY? >>Testifier: CORD ORDER IN THE PAST YEARS SEEN THIS BEFORE. BOTH CHAIR AND AS WELL AS OTHER MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL, HAVE REQUESTED THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION PROVIDE BETTER DOCUMENTATION AND DOCUMENTS BACK TO THE COUNCIL. THIS IS GOODEL EXAMPLE OF THE GOOD PROPOSAL BACK TO THE COUNCIL. BUT IT'S A GOOD THING. THIS IS REALLY GREAT IMPROVEMENT FROM BEFORE. I WANT TO KNOW HOW THAT HAS CHANGED. >>Testifier: THINK PLANNING COMMISSION PERSPECTIVE, YOU FOLKS WILL SUBMIT THAT. GTS TO DPP FOR ON MY END, DEFINITELY. PUSHING DPP ON LIKE OR UNDER THE CLOCK. GUGET THINGS MOVING.FULL COMMISO DEAL AND FIX THE QUORUM ISSUES. WE'RE READY TO ROCK & ROLL. UYENO BEEN PUSHING DPP, GET THEM PUAKEA U PUSHED OUT. O OUR ASSISTANT, TALK HARA BEEN GREAT.

FOR ACTION, KUNIA COMMUNICATION 60, COMMITTEE WILL TAKE ACTION ON DRAFT COMMITTEE REPORT FILED COUNCIL COMMUNICATION 60D2026 MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE COUNCIL ON WHETHER CHARTER PROVISION ESTABLISHING PLANNING IS COMMISSION SHOULD BE RETAINED AMEND OR REPEALED. BY DEPARTMENTAL COMMUNICATION 57, 2026, JANUARY 30, 20 2*6, SUBMIT COMMISSION SUBMITTED TO COUNCIL REPORT ACCOMPLISHMENT AND ACTIVES. CHARTERER COMMISSION STEAK COMMISSION BE RETAINED WITHOUT CHANGE.

CONSOLIDATION OF LAND. COMMITTEE MEETING MARCH 5 DISCUSSED COMMITTEE REPORT AND HEART FROM THE DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND PERMITTING. WHICH IS THE AGENCY, COMMISSION IS ADD U ADMINISTRATIVELY ATTACHED TO AND ITEL DEPUTY CORPORATION COUNSEL. WE DISCUSSED COMMISSION STAFFING CONCERNS AND INSTANCES WHERE COMMISSION MEMBERS ARE REPEATEDLY ABSENT FROM MEETINGS. MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO ACHIEVE A QUORUM. THE COMMISSION CHAIR COULD NOT ATTEND LAST MONTH'S MEETING BUT IS HERE TODAY. I WOULD LIKE TO CALL UP PANE RECALLEL CHAIR OF PLANNING COMMISSION TO SUMMARIZE THE COMMISSION'S REPORT AND PROVIDE SOME COMMENTS. PANE MEATOGA. >>Testifier: THANK YOU CHAIR MEMBER COMMITTEE. PANE MEATOGA. 3 PLANNING COMMISSION CHAIR. YES, YOU HAVE OUR REPORT. THAT WAS VET THE MYSELF REVISED CHAIR A SENT OUT TO MEMBERING OF OUR COMMISSION. SPECIFICALLY, I'M GLAD YOU ALLOWED TO THE QUORUM ISSUES THAT WE'VE BEEN HAVING. I MUST SAY THAT ALL YOU HAVE OUR COMMISSI COMMISSIONERS COMMO THE CAUSE. WE'VE WE HAVE COMMISSIONERS COME DOWN FROM CHIME IN FROM NEW YORK, FROMEL EUROPE, AND ATTEND PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS. I AM VERY ASTOUNDED DESPITE ALL OF THAT, RECALL THEY MAKE THE MEETINGS. IT'S IMPORTANT TO US. WE HAVE A JOB TO DO. WE'RE VOLUNTEER COMMISSION. IN REGARDS SPECIFICALLY TO THE PART ABOUT THE RULES BEING OVER TO DPP, I THINK THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS BROUGHT UP. SO AFTER DISCUSSION WITH THE COMMISSION MEMBERS BECAUSE WE ONLY HAVE ONE STAFF MEMBER, AND WITH THE INCREDIBLE WORKLOAD ALL OF OUR MEMBERS HAVE, IT WOULD BE HIGHLY UNLIKELY THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO PRODUCE OUR OWN RULES. AND PUSH THAT OUT. SO WE FELT THAT DPP WAS THE APPROPRIATE PLACE DO THAT. OBVIOUSLY, AS WE APPROVE AND RECOMMEND OR DENY, RESOLUTIONS BILLS THINGS THAT COME OUR WAY, WE FEEL THAT PRODUCING THINGS, RULES, PRETTY HARD FOR OUR GUYS TO PULL OFF. SO THAT'S WHY WE RECOMMENDED THAT DPP DO THAT. HAVE THE OVERSIGHT AND THEN KICK IT BACK TO US FOR RECOMMENDATIONS. THAT'S MY SUMMARY. THANK YOU. >>Chair Kia'aina: MEMBERS ANY QUESTIONS? VICE CHAIR WATERS. >>Councilmember Waters: THANK YOU SO MUCH. GOOD MORNING.

LIQUOR COMMISSION REQUIRES APPLICANT TO SEND OUT MAIL TO AFFECTED PROPERTIES. IS THAT SOMETHING YOU OPEN TO? >>Testifier: THAT IS SOMETHING. YEAH. I COULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND LOOKING TO FOR DPP. I WOULD HOPE THEY WOULD HAVE THE BUDGET FOR IT. I'M NOT. >>Councilmember Waters: I'M NOT REELING THAT. I THINK YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. NOT RECOMMENDING THAT. THANK YOU FOR RESOLVING QUORUM PROBLEM. I MENTIONED THAT EARLIER TODAY. THAT THESE APPLICANT IT'S GOT TO KNOW THAT YOU GOT TO SHOW UP.

WHAT IS THE REASON FOR THAT COMPARATIVELY TO THE OTHER YEARS. >>Chair Kia'aina: >>Testifier: GREA GREAT YET. AT THE COMMISSION NOTICED THAT TOO. GREAT QUESTION I THINK IN BETWEEN, BETWEEN COUNCIL OR THE ADMINISTRATION, DPP AND THE TIME CLOCK THAT THEY HAVE SO GET THINGS SEN AND PREPARED AND IF GIVE IT TO US. SENT. I DO RM TIMES WHEN, COUNCIL SEPTEMBER 11SEPTEMBER 11, 2011-T THINGS OVER. COUNCILMEMBERS REACH OUT WHERE IS THAT AT? CALL. CALL DPP, STILL PROCESSING IT. THEY HAVE X AMOUNT OF DAYS. COULD DO IT.

I GUESS WANTED TO ASK DPP IF YOU HAD ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. I MEAN ANY OTHER COMMENTS. >>Testifier: THANK YOU CHAIR. I THINK OUR MAIN COMMENT IS THAT WE JUST REALLY APPRECIATE THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE COMMISSIONERS FOR ALL OF THEIR HARD WORK. WE GIVE THEM A LOT OF REALLY COMPLICATED ISSUES. BOTH BROAD LONG RANGE PLANNING AND THESE CIEMPTD LAND USE ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS. KIND OF. THEY ALWAYS COME PREPARED TO ASK LOTS OF INTERESTING QUESTIONS. AND I JUST FIND IT REALLY LAUDABLE THEY'RE WILLING TO DONATE THEIR TIME LIKE THAT. >>Chair Kia'aina: GOOD TO HEAR I WAS AT MY STAFF PUMP COMMISSIONERS JUST AS A REMINDER. I FEEL LIKE THE CALIBER OF THE -- PULL UP) CALIBER OF THE COMMISSION INCLUDING THE CHAIR IS JUST TOP CALIBER. AND I FEEL THAT THEY ALL BRING THE NECESSARY STILL SKILL SKILLSCY SETS AS REQUIRED. I KNOW WE PASSED ORDINANCE, WITH SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS AND FORMER DPP DIRECTOR WAS WORRIED THAT WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET SUCH CANDIDATES. BUT THE FACT OF MATTER IS THE CANDIDATES ACTUALLY ARE THIS THERE. AND I ALSO DO LIKE THE GENDER DIVERSITY ON THE COMMISSION. AS FOR YOU CHAIR PANIOLO I WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THAT I SAID I APPRECIATE THE GENDER DIVORCE TANOUYE THE COMMISSION. PANE AND ALL OF THE WELL QUALIFIED APPLICANT IT'S THAT ARE SERVING WITH YOU. I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT FORT MEMBERS FEW IMPORTANT POINTS TO CONSIDER. FIRST CHARTER SECTION 6-153.

FUNCTIONS ON PROPOSALS TO DOCUMENT OR AMEND SUBDIVISION ORIGINALS. THIRD, ROH SECTION 22-3.5 ROY SPREADER COMMISSION IS E DRIER REQUIRED DOCUMENT RULE AIL ROADWAY REGULATIONS GOVERNING SUBDIVISION OR CONSOLIDATION OF LAND BUT THIS CONFLICTS ABOUT CHARTER SECTIONS THAT IT CLEARLY PLACE RESPONSIBILITY OR TO ADOPT SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE RULES AND REGULATIONS ON THE DIRECT OF PLANNING AND PERMITTING.

EL COMMUNICATION COUNCIL COMMUNICATION 60, 2026 WHICH WAS POSED ON THE AGENDA, ATTACHES DRAFT COMMITTEE REPORT RECOMMENDING THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION BE RETAINED WITHOUT CHANGE.
