Clyde Kodani,representing the applicants, stated that he has no comments and totally agrees with
the Director's report.
Mr. Texeira asked Mr.Kodani to clarify the statement"to accommodate the existing water tank"
and to expand on what"accommodate"means.
Mr.Kodam explained that the water tank was constructed on lands owned by the State and DOW
would like to have all of their facilities owned(fee-simple). Because it involves the road going up to
Koke`e,the State DOT as well as State DLNR needed to be involved in the creation of this subdivision.
Mr. Texeira asked for clarification on whether the State is transferring ownership of that parcel to
the Water Department,to which Mr. Kodani replied that is his understanding.
Mr. Texeira asked if the Water Department has any plans to expand the water tank or if they just
want to be the owner of that site,to which Mr. Kodani explained that presently there is an existing water
tank there and to his knowledge they have no plans for expansion.
On the motion by Herman Texeira and seconded by Jan Kimura to approve Subdivision
