The adjustments also avoid minor decimal differences created by defining numbers to the thousandth decimal point. Instead, up to and at least language would be used. The overall boundary of the Maui Research and Technology Park District remains the same at about 390 acres. Next, please. The amendments also include allowing minor medical centers as a permitted use in the civic district, shown in blue on this map.

The amendment would allow smaller medical facilities without overnight care, like doctor's offices and urgent care facilities. Next. Development standards regulate how lots and buildings are built, like lot sizes, building heights, building sizes, and setbacks. The proposed amendments incorporate more practical development standards to accommodate real-world site conditions. The amendments would remove the parking access and primary frontage requirements, adjust density and floor area ratio requirements, adjust front setback requirements, and increase maximum lot of the park, and unit sizes allowed for residential lots. As mentioned previously, a variance was secured from the Board of Variances and Appeals, which allows most of those standards already. The code amendment codifies the vari …

Deputy Corporation Counsel, Roe, did you have any opening remarks to offer this time? I don't have any opening remarks, but I'm happy to answer any questions as they arise. Okay, so I guess we're not in question time yet, but just a heads up, the reduction of penalties from $5,000 to $1,000 was made by your department, so that's probably coming your way. Yep. All right. Before moving on to discussion, let's take testimony for this item. Staff, is there anybody wishing to testify on grade 16? Chair, there are currently two individuals signed up to testify. Would you read the testimony? Yeah, I'll read the testimony log while we start enabling the first one of them.

Cultural resources are protected and celebrated, enhancing South Maui's sense of place. Planning, do you have any opening remarks? No opening remarks today. Okay. So we left off on our review of Section 3 growth framework. We didn't make any votes. We just reviewed the information. The committee last discussed Appendix D definitions on page 159 of the South Maui Community Plan. We were discussing definitions for native plants and drainage ways. All the information on Granicus, the crosswalk and everything. If some of the attachments are slow to load, you can always look them up on southmaui.wearemaui.org. As a reminder, the main motion as amended, recommending passage on first reading of Bill 108-2026, carries over from previous meetings. We'll now move on to public testimony for DRIP 25.

Music playing 1.04b is develop it so plan it and then develop it they have it at 76 million uh yeah so my challenge with this one is again you're trying to put too many different things into one goal um bypass road is one thing that is its own huge project then what we do with the existing right of way um that is north kia road is a separate effort altogether and you know what is the ultimate utilization of that road is it really just become a park access road at that point is it still function as a public highway um you know those are things we're still wrestling with with west maui on what happens to laura honopila or honopil ani highway once the bypass and realignment go in um so i think that warrants its own planning effort to you know get that community input on what exactly the vision for that corridor becomes um so maybe um 104a can stay as planned the kalia bypass road 104b would be develop the kalia bypass road and we could add a 104c which would be explore the possibility of using a part of the existing north kia road for a walking and bike path to the kalia coastal boardwalk after the bypass is completed would that be yeah i think that yeah that would be helpful to keep those things more clear okay so we'll separate it out into three specific action items um do you want specific wording to help you for the plan the kalia bypass road portion of it or just plan the kalia bypass road uh no i think plan the kalia bypass road is is um understandable um um i would also i …

Music playing. So we're getting the plan as close to ready as it can be without doing too many controversial ones that could be reversed in the new term. It's because we don't want to waste time and go over things , just to have them change. Member Batangan. Thank you, Chair. I guess before I go, did Chair Lee get all of her questions answered? I don't want to go on a tangent before. I'll yield to you. Okay. So thank you, Chair. So if it's not our intent to, if we don't think we're going to pass this before the end of the term, do we really need to continue going all day, every day through the month of September and early October? Yes. We do. Yeah. Because we only have one year total and it could take that long. Okay. And there's no possibility that we pass the South Hawaii Community Plan before the end of the term. I mean, there's always a possibility, but not at the rate that we're going. Correct. But I guess that's what I was trying to leave. So we couldn't pass what we have now, knowing that the Planning Commission is continuing to do its deliberations and then amends the South Hawaii Plan at a later date to incorporate the... Because it's the H3-H4 pieces, correct? That we're waiting on. Yes. I mean, we'll have to wait on. Yes. Yeah. So the things that were transmitted and which would delay adoption of the South Hawaii Community Plan would be H3-H4. So there's no possibility that we pass what came out of the CPAC and the Hawaii Planning Commission and what we have before …

Music playing. But I may have to drop off at maybe around 3 o'clock today. Yeah. Thank you. And also, last but not least, Council Member Yuki Le Sugimura is excused. This meeting of the Disaster Recovery International Affairs and Planning Committee of the Maui County Council is located on the traditional A ina of Kanaka Oibi, who never ceded their sovereignty to the United States. We recognize that Her Majesty Queen Liliu Kalani yielded the Hawaiian Kingdom to the U.S. in duress under threat of violence to avoid the bloodshed of her people. We further recognize that Hawaii remains an illegally occupied nation-state by the United States, as documented in a 2021 scholarly article for the National Lawyers Guild Review by Andrew Reid, adjunct professor of law at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Generations of Kanaka Maoli and their knowledge systems have sustainably cared for Hawaii and continue to do so. We are grateful to occupy this space and learn the ways in which we can contribute. As a committee, we seek to support the varied strategies that the indigenous people of Hawaii are using to protect their land and their communities and commit to dedicating time and resources to working in solidarity. From the Department of Planning, we have Planning Director Jackie Takakura. From the Department of Public Works, we have Director of Public Works Jordan Molina. From the Department of Environmental Management, we have Deputy Director Michael Peterson. From the Departme …

Music playing Thank you. go with. So sure, why don't you give us your conditions as well, and then I'll move on to Member Rawlins-Fernandez. Okay, and so I'll just see it, and if there's clarifying questions, answer it. I have two proposed conditions, and if folks want to clarify, I'm okay with that, but not discussing, right? Sure, I guess we can get into a small discussion, but I did want to take a moment at least to do some research, even for our planners and our corp councils and corp council and everyone. Okay, and then my first proposed condition for consideration in the committee report would be, you know, if there isn't public beach access, and I'm sorry if I said this already because I'm not 100% sure if it got recorded, but public beach access from, you know, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. to the public land , public, the shoreline. Okay. Would be the first one. I don't think that needs much clarification. Okay. The second one, and I can state my rational nexus, but for those that are transferring from apartment zones to hotel zones to get an updated state certified shoreline assessment, and my explanation of that is that, you know, the state certified shoreline changes, and I don 't think that that has been done for a while. It's the average throughout the year of the high wash of the waves, and what it denotes is the difference between private land and public trust lands, and the purpose of it is there's certain laws regarding public trust lands, and there may be things that a …
