Mr. Jung: I saw that was on the consent calendar and I was watching, watching and then I lost
track so I don't know if it was just accepted under the consent calendar of . if they actually
debated cause under the new rules they can bring it out for debate or it can just be approved as
accepted through the consent calendar. So we need to track that and see what happens.
Ms. Griffin: That' s important cause it will tell us for May what we do next in terms of pushing
this forward.
Mr. Jung: Yes I will track it down and real quick I would like to introduce Nick our newest
attorney in our office . This is Nick Courson this is Kauai Historic Preservation Commission.
Ms. Griffin: And we know ourselves as KHPRC.
Mr. Junk: No, no unfortunately for you guys I am still here. Nick just walked in so I wanted to
embarrass him a little.
Mr. Hironaka: Thanks for coming.
Ms. Aiu: Thank you. Anything else before we lose quorum.
Ms. Griffin: Just one last thing if you all find out that this resolution is going to be on the agenda
for those of us who are not so closely involved with the county government it would be
wonderful to get an email saying it will be on. Not that anyone of us could speak directly to it
representing the KHPRC but we could certainly talk more about what that person would do. Why
it' s important that we get the development plan started.
Ms. Aiu: Thank you anything else? Ok thank you.
COMMUNICATIONS .
There were no communications.
UNIFINISHED BUSINESS
Re: Certified Local Government (CLG) Status
Mr. Hironaka: The contract for the inventory has been successfully negotiated. So we will be
circulating the contract for execution by all parties . So they should be on board, hopefully,
shortly. And then there is the training. I think we talked about the training sessions . So we have
funding to send three commissioners .
Ms . Santos : So who is going to that?
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 3
Mr. Hironaka: Stephen, Jane, and Pat.
Ms . Griffin: Did you talk to Jane?
Mr. Hironaka : Jane said she was going and I think Patsy she wanted to go if we can get funding
from the State. We still haven 't gotten word from Mike Gushard,
Ms . Griffin: In our minutes we moved to invite the Mayor to this meeting today . What happened
with that?
Ms. Santos : I had a meeting today and he changed it to yesterday cause he was super busy today.
Mr. Hironaka: I know he couldn' t change his schedule for today' s meeting.
Ms. Griffin: Well as the CLG we are given now advisory and memorandums all the time and we
are still not getting them back, what' s going out to the public, so I want to ask yet again when the
memos go out from motions that we make that we get copies of it and particularly this one on the
bridges was inaccurate it said that we met on March 1 , 2012 which we did but we also met on
March 7, 2013 so it makes it look like we hadn' t had a decision in a year.
Mr. Hironaka : We made the change to that.
Ms . Griffin: Oh good I have gotten a copy of that and there was a bridge that was coming from
the County Council yesterday and I do have some other things on this resolution.
NEW BUSINESS
Re: 1077 Moana Kai Road (Ken Nagahiro)
Chair: Ok Mr . Nagahiro .
Mr. Ken Nagahiro : Yes.
Chair : Come. So this is 1077 Moana Kai Road. I went to look at it and I agree that it needs to be,
that they need to demolish it. However it always makes us sad when we lose something on our
inventory. When I was talking to you earlier I am sure it is sad for you too because you losing
where your grandmother/grandparents lived and I am pretty sure there is a long history with that
house being right on the beach. You probably went there for the summer whatever and I am sure
you don't want to lose it. My personal concern was when I saw what you wanted to replace it
with, which said hollow tile .
Mr. Nagahiro : Well that is just, we haven't really made a decision yet on what we are going to
use to rebuild but I think hollow tile would be rust proof if anything.
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 4
Chair: I would agree with that. Are you thinking about putting some stucco maybe over the
hollow tile.
Mr. Nagahiro : Yes but that' s not for a while . We haven' t made the decision on rebuilding yet or
not. We just want to demolish it because of the liability.
Chair: Well since you didn't make a decision yet. I would like to make a suggestion. You know
that is such a special place. Not everybody can have a place on the beach. It is a wonderful little
spot. Plus you only have a few houses there and so two of em are maybe hollow tile, I don't
know, but if you put stucco. So it' s more of a California beach look. But still it' s smaller and
beach look and then the Dr. Paul ' s house is kind of big but all the other houses are smaller. It has
a certain feel . It' s not just one house but with the houses that are there if when you are making
that decision you can think about the hollow tile covering with the stucco or something more in
keeping with the area. That would be nice and it wouldn't be so . . . Ok other people besides me.
Ms . Griffin: I guess for, this is one of those great examples that shows that there is a difference
between the old and historic and old and doesn't really have what we call in this business
integrity of a lot of its original structures. So I agree that demolition for the reasons you have
stated is inevitable. I don't know what kind of photos you may have of your family' s historic in
the house but one of what we call mitigating factors of being able to remember where we came
from and have that for the future if you have old pictures and if there is a way to document that
place that would be a wonderful addition to our knowledge of that.
Mr. Nagahiro: Another reason I wanted to demo it cause the homeless have been breaking into
the house. They just trashed the whole inside so everything is all destroyed, all the photos
everything. So we cleaned out the place already so we just want to demo it.
Chair: So you don' t have any photos?
Mr. Nagahiro : They took everything upside down but the roof is lealcing to so everything got all
wet and destroyed.
Chair : Anybody else?
Mr. Nagahiro : My aunt them might have some pictures.
Ms . Griffin: If there is a way for you to pull something together cause that is kind of
neighborhood in transition too and that will at least have a little part of the past that continues to
live. So I am not sure that I want to ask that as a requirement but , . .
Mr. Long: Where would he send that and in what form?
Ms . Griffin: We normally ask that photos or copies be archived at the Kauai Museum and the
Historical Society. I am sure if you have copies that you can give to the Planning Department.

Myles Hironaka is our staff member. They would be happy to distribute it to archives and can
keep it.
Mr. Nagahiro : T can try to hunt some down but not guarantee .
Ms . Sheehan : It may just show up in somebody else ' s album. You believe the integrity has been
lost in this house and it is a definitely a security problem. You need to secure that space .
Chair : Anybody else? Thank you for letting us look at this.
Ms . Santos : Do we need a motion?
Chair : No motion is necessary.
Mr. Jung: I am sorry.
Chair: Ok,
Mr. Jung : T was looking at my email .
Chair: It said here review of the survey.
Mr. Junk: I am going back to the previous one. It would just be a motion to basically accept it
because there it is a demo permit that is being requested. So a motion based on the language that
I think Pat had articulated would be appropriate.
Ms. Griffin: I move that we accept the demolition permit as written and request that the owner
provide any available photographs possible.
Ms. Santos: Second.
Chair: All in favor? (Unanimous voice vote). Thank you.
Mr. Jun>7: We will notify him since he already left.
Re : Waihohonu Development (Grove Farm Properties)
Chair: On this one we are reviewing the survey. What I understand you are offering us two
choices and that is demolition or moving. Is that it? Would there be another option on this? Ok I
would just like to be sure. Thank you ok.
Mr. Dave Hinazumi : Good afternoon Commission. My name is Dave Hinazumi and I represent
Grove Farm Properties. With me at this time are our consultants Tonya Moy of Fung and
Associates and Kimi Yuen of PBR Hawaii . At this time we will present an overview of or
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 6
Waihohonu Project as well as our plan disposition for the existing homes in the project site and
request your input.
Waihohonu is a housing project that will turn a site for six rental homes into a site for up to 50
new for sale homes . The project is geared to low and moderate income groups . For this project
we retained Tonya to commission an architectural assessment survey of the homes and at this
time she will present her findings .
Ms. Tonya Moy : Just to start off with it was more like an historic integrity assessment. I think
mainly because everybody sort of understood that Kdloa Camp, the whole plantation, as far as
the history of it, it is a very significant part of the history of Kauai, history of Hawaii: So we
were just tasked to you know kind of do a windshield survey and a basic assessment of its
integrity .
So this shows it today and the numbers correspond to the houses that are left. And this is a 1918
map of Koloa Plantation and it shows that many of the houses were on the outside. And the next
one, which is a 1923 map but I guess it was found in Grove Farm' s file so all those Xs, we don't
know when those Xs happened but as you know they are not there anymore. So and then we tried
to superimpose where the houses are now on that same map and as you can see there, is very little
correlation with the 1923 map of where the houses are. So and we had actually talked to Alan
Smith you used to be the Grove Farm General Manager. He had told us that after Iniki that a lot
of the houses were either destroyed or some of em were put back together again or taken from
like if there was three houses that were kind of similar they would make one house out of it or
whatever. So they kind of put things together after Iniki which explains why I guess a lot of em
are not in the same footprint so they might have moved it also .
So going house by house cause there is only eight houses right. So this was the one behind the
old Japanese School and the Japanese School I guess is going to be left alone for this project
right now. So this one was one that was definitely put together and I guess this would fall under
the category of Pat' s old house. Cause it was kind of using old parts so it looks really old and we
weren't sure but you know after talking to Alan Smith it was clear that it was put together from
different parts of other buildings.
So when we looked at it and the district we felt it no longer had the character of a camp. So you
know like the integrity if someone came back it would, somebody who lived in that camp they
might recognize the house or so but it would no longer have the feeling of a camp . But we
looked at it house by house and we felt that there were some houses that held enough integrity
and character to be eligible for its architecture. So as a district you know like and we kind of did
a brief talking with Mike and Ross from the Historic Preservation Division and they had gone
and seen it and so we did an informal consultation with them and they kind of agreed that it no
longer had a camp, it no longer had a district but individually we looked at it individually and
tried to determine if it still had architectural integrity.
So this one we really didn't think so . This one I think we had it as a questionable cause we really
couldn't see this one too well . So we are not really sure about this one but I think there was a lot
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 7
of bushes around it. It may, because it had its original windows and stuff, so it may have enough
integrity to be a good example of a plantation style.
This one was the Inouye house and the front porch actually has changed over the years and this
one was one of those that was kind of falling apart cause it was empty for quite a few years
already . So and then the windows and doors had changed and this is one house, we have it by
numbers, so these two are the same house.
So this one we kind of felt was kind of a nice example of a 1950s plantation house. So we
thought this one was one that would be eligible for its architecture. And here is one that is a very
classic kind of a plantation house that falls under C for cute buildings . And this one also kind of
same kind of plantation and then this one was one that looks really old but was in pieces . You
could tell it was put together in parts . So again one that we are pretty sure in Iniki cause some of
it looks 50s and some looks 1900s even. So we feel pretty confident that this one was put
together after Iniki. And this is another one that was kind of piece meal some extension here and
some addition here that was probably put together so another one we think lacks integrity to be
considered eligible . That' s the same house. So that' s it for the presentation and again this was an
integrity assessment. We didn't go into the history cause it was well accepted already that it
would be significant for history.
Mr. Hinazurni : So the existing homes that you saw are susceptible to flooding and that's a
condition that we don't want. So to alleviate the problem we plan to re-grade the site to raise the
building pads as well as provide foundations for the homes. This requires that the existing homes
be removed from the site . As a low to moderate income project it is important that we manage
the cost as best as we can.
So it would be ideal if we could move the homes one time to a permanent site. We have
contacted some parties about possible reuse of the homes for school use. We have also contacted
Mike Faye to take a look at the homes to make a determination whether they would be relocated
or not and for the most part all of the homes accept for that one Inouye house looks like it can be
relocated. The Inouye house, as Tonya mentioned, has been vacant over the years and he didn't
think, due to its condition, that it could be relocated. But we haven't made a final determination
yet. We are hoping to find a permanent site for the homes prior to coming in to request a
relocation permit.
We believe Waihohonu is project that is going to meet a great demand for housing. It will be
marketed to our island residents and we respectfully request you input on our plans to relocate
the homes and we welcome your recommendations including ways to commemorate the history
of the camp both at the site as well as on our website . Thank you for your attention on this
matter.
Chair : Is that it?
Mr. Hinazumi: Yes.
May 2, 2013 KAT.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 8
Chair : Alright commissioners do you want to give some input?
Mr. Long: I have some questions . So you feel that seven of the homes are worth saving? Seven
of the homes could be moved but not worth. . .
Ms. Moy: Not all seven would be considered eligible for listing but whether it' s worth moving or
not is a different question but architecturally I think we had like four I think that we thought were
eligible that we thought maintained enough architectural integrity.
Mr. Long: And how many homes are going on the site? How many new homes or units?
Mr. Hinazumi : Up to 50 .
Mr. Long: Up to 50, five zero?
Mr. Hinazumi : Yes,
Mr. Long: So that' s a fairly dense, how many acres?
Mr. Hinazumi : Approximately twelve acres .
Mr. Long: Are they homes on individual lots?
Mr. Hinazumi: Yes and just to correct that we are talking to two different contractors at this time
and at one time we were looking at doing steel frame homes. The intent is of course to market
low to moderate income and the best was to do that is to manage our cost as best as we can. So
we looked at that option and we heard a lot of comments and that wasn't a very popular option.
So we are now talking to two contractors looking to do wood frame homes. The cost, it is more
expensive it' s not question to do it that way but we definitely wanted to respond to the comments
that were brought up so we made that change.
Mr. Long: I have a couple more questions. How high do you intend to raise the first floors?
Mr. Hinazumi : Approximately one to four feet.
Mr. Long: So minimally. It would be a step up to a stoop. Are the houses going to be one story
then?
Mr. Hinazumi : Yes all one story.
Mr. Long: Ok well I have a thought for consideration and that is that you have got a 12 acre site.
You are putting 50 local smaller, medium, lower income homes . They are going to be about the
same size or a little larger than existing structures are you are going to raise them up a couple
feet. I would wonder if there might be a developmental opportunity for you to take the four
homes that has some integrity and move them on your own site. You have got 50 home sites all
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 9
stacked in. This could create an entry element. It could create a little back of what your design is
for your new subdivision. It is going to have to be linear with homes on either side .
Ok so there is an opportunity to set the tone of the subdivision and reinforce the historical
component of it by relocated those homes within your project. You don't have to build them.
You don't have to buy them. All you have to do is move then a little bit and raise them up and
work with Michael professionally Michael Faye moving homes and he has a place to move them
but that' s Waimea. This is just right around the corner. So it' s a thought for your consideration.
Did you give them some thought?
Mr. Hinazumi : We gave them some thought and we know the homes need to be brought up to
existing code . Things such as lead paint are a big concern to these homes. Structural integrity is
something that would need to be looked at. Also our current energy codes need to be complied
with as well. So those are some you know, that' s a consideration. We haven't closed the book on
that consideration but it was on the costly considerations. But thank you for that recommendation
and we will relook at it.
Mr. Long: I really feel, I mean you know if Michael Faye can move then a quarter of the way
around the island to make them work then you know maybe you could make em work on your
own side. And you have got four of them. Just perfect two and two and create a little
neighborhood in itself. It' s not like they are out of place or sore thumbs in a brand new
subdivision of 2,500 square foot two story. No it should work. I think if and also with your
design aren't you going to want to play off of some of the historical local components and local
design elements, covered car parts and simple porches?
You have got four existing buildings right there. Yes they have lead paint. Yes they have to be
upgraded with utilities but they exist. You know and all those remediation considerations don't
really add that much to the cost of those houses in particularly to a project with 50 houses and
that' s less than 10%. Its minuscule consideration when you think about the project and you can
really set the tone here and really do something special. Something unique and personally I think
that, that' s a real consideration.
Ms. Santos : I have a couple of things and I am sure everything I am going to say is totally
unprofessional and just mean but whatever. I had a hard day . Anyway so it' s really hard, first of
all, to watch this whole thing and here you guys talk about and the pros, I think, is so is too
fluffy . It' s too fluffy. It' s like the history of the camp. I mean this is like I think it' s like next is
going to become Kaurnakani camp, or Pakalas, or McBryde and it' s just so sad and to see you
know they always say affordable housing or whatever but it' s not really affordable.
We all know that, that' s you know but anyway it would be nice to come here with some kind of
you know and say like how they took down the mill in Lihu'e. They took down the mill. They
did a really nice book. It detailed the history. Had pictures, had stories, had the whole thing about
what that camp was all about or what that camp was all about. So I can understand yea you know
great piece of property. You guys want about 50 homes. You guys have seven or eight left. Blah,
May 2. 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 10
blah, whatevers right but at least come with ok we are taking away a part of history but here is
something in return. Here is a book. Here is blah, blah whatvers .
That' s number one . My second thing is the camp, even though there is seven homes and you
guys kind of made the comment well it' s not really cause there is only seven homes left it' s not
really that camp feel . It used to be that camp feel and so to replace it with a camp feel again
would be kind of nice . The same kind of looking home or the same kind of and so there is not
really the talk about you know what it is going to be like. First it was oh we are going to do the
whole China thing and bring you know those are super cheap and it comes with the whole
kitchen and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
So it' s kind of and now it like we are talking to contractors and you know it' s like well what is
your design pupose? Are you going for keeping the seven or whatever homes and kind of go
with that same look and that same feel and that same theory of the camp? I mean even the whole
area is so campish or so you know what' s the word? It' s the whole feel of Koloa Town behind
Big Save is all you know what I am saying. So that' s my whole rant for today. Thank you all for
listening. I am sure I came off a little crazy. I tried to keep it low but I still think it' s a little to
fluffy. The whole thing is fluffy. The whole way they went about it just doesn't rub much people
the right way . You know what I mean? So I think there should be a little bit more of giving of
what the future holds for that spot then just the whole question.
Chair: Thank you. .
Ms . Sheehan: My few questions are, I agree with Steve if there is some way you should
incorporate, you should try harder to incorporate those four units. The four units in reading this
and I might not be reading it right it says single wall. Are they all single wall construction? Are
what' s left all single wall construction?
Ms . Moy: I think so accept for the ones that they pieced together.
Ms . Sheehan : So if you have to move them do you have to come to code and make double wall
and do all that? Because I mean you are saying you might think about moving them but the
practical reality is we moved a couple of houses after the hurricane in Hanalei and as soon as we
got them moved they said the door is too short and the walls are single wall and the bedrooms
are only nine by eleven instead of ten by 12. It is an historic if there are four if they are eligible
put them on the register and somehow make them eligible and see if you can avoid those kinds of
things because as soon as you come to code you are taking away the integrity again. And I do
think it' s a give back. That' s what you can give back and you know maybe you take the windows
off of one of the other that don't have the integrity and use them again.
Mike Faye can actually redo any windor, any door, any double hung. He is really good at that but
I think that is something that you could give back and I know that you know I don't know
whether actually these buildings being historic would get you away from Having to come whole
from the degree it changes so much which is what happened to us in Hanalei. We changed it so
much it didn't look like the same building and I agree this looks like a lot of housing and even if
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 11
one of those four ends up being, I don 't know if there is two bedroom or three bedrooms, but one
could just be a little museum. A little something maybe use it for some other use in the
residential area.
I think. it would be very exciting for you to think outside the box even if you are saying this is
low to mid income they shouldn't have any less then you would do for anyone else. The
economic value of what this is, is that you want it to last a long time and that it should have
integrity to last a long time. I don't understand whether the lot, does it slop or is it flat? is it
lower one end then the other?
Mr. Hinazumi : Yes towards the Japanese school side.
Ms . Sheehan: Those buildings would have to be up higher. The flood comes from the back to the
front.
Mr. Hinazumi : It comes from, if you are looking at the map it goes from right to left.
Ms . Sheehan: Yes so I was thinking that maybe you put the four in the back but I think put it in
the front its higher ground and I think. it is really hard to just do that walk around because there is
so much on the inside that might be significant that you could recycle to .some degree. I don 't
know how I was with a company in Honolulu that recycles buildings but there are a lot of other
houses that may need parts I don't know. Kokee may need parts but I agree but there should be
some way to come commemorate what this was. You know if there is some other way. If its
pictures or oral histories or something that maybe you only use one of these buildings to work
and it' s just an adaptive reuse of that which is the best one. The smallest one maybe, they all
look like they may have one bedroom and I am sure that is not true.
Chair: Thank you.
Ms. Griffin: Thank you. First of all when went down and I actually went down with Ross some
months ago its one of those places that there was a sense of neighborhood but I do agree that
there was an integrity as a plantation camp anymore and I think that our sentiment cause houses
we are not objecting about our own house and they hold something that is very tangible so there
are remnants of the plantation camps but what was left was a neighborhood. I was privileged a
year ago or so to sit with you and get a little more a sense of the larger project and one of the
things that you were mentioning at the time was potentially by the Japanese school behind it
doing something commemorative and I guess all of us are feeling and all of us is much larger
than the six of that sit on this commission but a community that a sense of loss is for
transitioning so far away from that plantation life that brought such a huge percentage of our
people here over the years with Liibu'e Mill is down, Kekaha is going down and it' s my
understanding that Koloa will follow.
So there is a sense of how do we bring parts of the past into the future and I believe you and I
talked about the possibility of saving a house or two . It looked to me that we talked about a
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 12
couple of others but the first two in our report 2707 is the second, 2713 is the first I think you
called one of them cute.
Ms . Moy : What number was it again?
Ms . Griffin: 2707 and 2713 . The first two that do still have some integrity, the siding wasn't
changed. There may be jalousies but two of us who live in old houses do have don't have
jalousies now. They were changed over time. And that is a changeable kind of thing. So I think
what we are asking and it' s really hard when we see things piece by piece and so we are
responding to a small part it' s really not up to us to tell you what should go there next but what
the history is and how to bring that in. I am wondering if, Dave, if you can talk a little bit more
about what plans Grove Farm might have to do some commemorative kind of work that would
be retained on that site and contribute to the neighborhood.
Mr. Hinazumi: You know in that discussion we did take good note of your suggestion of having
some type of, at a minimum some type of plaque or something or a house to provide the
suggestion some type of museum is an excellent one. You know and I apologize coming in kind
of piece meal but we really needed to get your input and we wanted to do it as early as we could.
We are still a moving process but this kind of input is what we can take back and do our best to
incorporate all of this in there to have. And I know it' s the lower area but the Japanese school
building we were talking with someone about possibly relocating that for a school maybe like a
large office but that building is kind of large and very difficult to move. We can look at what to
do with the Japanese school building leaving it there. There is that house next to the Japanese
school building which I can't say what kind of condition it is in but that was and we don't have
plans for it right now but Mike Faye did kind of look at that and was like oh boy it' s kind of
beyond to relocate it but thinking out loud that area, the Japanese school building, we will still
look at the homes with reusing the homes as a site but at least at a minimum the Japanese school
buildings is something we can definitely start with.
Ms . Griffin: I though you all were talking about some kind of a park area behind, you were
talking but something there. I think that sense you know Richard (inaudible) has recently retired
from the National Trust talked about with smart growth and so forth the (inaudible) and you do
have that vernacular look. The hip roof, the corrugated, the vertical single wall and the window
treatment that do speak in a certain way to what was there and still a lot people would relate too.
We have relatively few left on Kauai and Ewa doesn' t count. Kaumakani is and some from
Niumila are even moved out.
So just that sense and especially such a fast transitioning area as Koloa is that, that what Stephen
suggested there is a sense part of it it' s almost a PR move. You know a sense of showing respect
for that tradition and I am not criticizing you about bringing things in piece meal . We are all very
grateful to receive this but it' s also why we spend a lot of our time waving our arms around and
trying to get that to a bigger picture is how to respond and give something that would be viable
for Grove Farm and still hold on to some of that you know history that a lot of people in Koloa
still have reason.

Mr. Long : I just want to make a comment that I appreciate you coming before us and making an
effort to study the buildings and to really take a serious look at them and also particularly your
consideration to use wood as a building material. Not only because it is sort of a reflection of the
past architectural building methodology but also because of on a marketing basis it might be a
little bit more expensive but healthier for you to live in. So that might be a balance for you and
then picking up what Patsy said about, I know as a developer it is difficult. to save one building
it' s actually easier to save four but as one building that' s two percent of the project. So I don't
know how you get to weigh those economics . I have a question does the spine run down the
center is it single stacked homes? Are there any flag lots planned?
Mr. Hinazumi : There is going to be sections, primarily single stacked but there are going to be a
portion of it that will be double stacked.
Mr. Long: Right like back up in that left.
Mr. Hinazumi : If you come in from the park and the corner lot there.
Mr. Long: Where would the double stack be?
Mr. Hinazumi: Ok so the entrance is going to come in from here and the interior road, it doesn' t
follow these dirt roads, so it' s going to pretty much run right down the middle and as you enter it
will single stacked on this side but as you make the turn down here initially it will be double
stacked maybe till about this area and that it will be single stacked coming all the way till here.
Mr. Long : Oh so it' s double stacked around five and six?
Mr. Hinazumi : Yes .
Mr. Long: There is a, it' s not an entry, but there is a little pocket right there. I mean double
stacked flag lots go back to a nice little neighborhood. You have got a fence back there. Maybe
they cost a little bit less. You know it doesn't interfere with your look. You know you want to
come in and everything looks nice and orderly.
Ms. Sheehan: I just have one other question. The steam is Grove Farm' s?
Mr. Hinazumi: It' s the County' s .
Ms. Sheehan : It' s the County' s . Does anybody keep that clean? I mean it looks like it meanders
and then goes into the road but is that always going to be a problem for you?
Mr. Hinazumi: Potentially. So we know its County owned and they cannot speak on how they
are going to handle maintenance but it is a problem back in ' 06 when we had the 40 days of rain
it was big problem . A lot of hau bush from the upper parts of the stream backed up over here and
we needed to retain contractors, Waalani Construction, to come out and clean that whole area so
it is a problem. It can become a large problem. I guess we will see what can be done about
maintenance.
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 14
Ms . Sheehan: maybe a little bit of open space .
Ms . Griffin: And you definitely not going to break through to the bypass? The road?
Mr Hinazumi : We weren' t planning to and the reason for that is you see Wailani Road right here
it intersects with the bypass road right here and either trying to punch out Wailani Road or this
one at least per County standards it was too close of an intersection to try to have another one
punch out right there. We did look at that.
Mr. Long: I know you are here talking to us about the demolition of the buildings. We haven't
really talked about the other aspects of the project. Will you be coming in front of us again or is
it the demos of the buildings is our last look at this?
Mr. Jung; This, you are actually in the preconsult stage right now so there is no application for a
demo permit yet.
Mr. Long: Ok just a comment. When Randy was on the commission he had really wonderful
suggestions on a project where you plant a dozen yellow Ohia trees as part of the development of
the parking lot. So there must be some landscape plan consideration you know when you are
doing your development and it would be really nice if you took into consideration for marketing
purposes and for all of those (inaudible) is landscaping and also zeroscape . I don't know if they
are compatible but less water. There is gotta be plants down there in Koloa that they have been
planting for 75 years that work really well and so that carries on that sort of camp style even if
the homes aren 't. This might give them the neighborhood feeling it think. That would be positive
marketing tool for you.
Chair: Anybody else?
Ms . Sheehan: I just want to say thank you for coming. I am sure you have to wrap your hands
around it a little more and hope you are able to . Thank you.
Chair: So thank you for coming and I think that what you should leave here today is that none of
us want to see demos . That would be one big thought. We talked about possibly four houses
being able to save. I like his idea of I am almost thinking it' s single stacked here but it' s almost
like put it by the entry way then you have this camp feeling that and after that it transitions into
whatever you are putting up there. So please give that some thought.
Now part of this is you guys are the landowners but you guys never did fix up these houses and I
know you are talking expense but I want to tell you about what happen with Kapa` a and I am so
proud of my area. Two people I want to talk about Linda Moriarty single person and she is a
widow. She has two homes. One built in 1928 , three bedroom, she has a small little cottage and
last night I went there to look for sure it's built in the 1900s. It' s a one bedroom cottage and she
has kept that up single handedly with her own bucks. Painting doing whatever had to be done.
May 2, 2013 K.H.P.R.C. Meeting Minutes
Page 15
And if you guys want to go look at it I would so happy to take you and to ask her to accept you
folks to come and look at it. She has done that by herself.
The other outstanding family is the Setos and if you don' t know the Seto building it' s right on
the main road there . That family single handedly by themselves had kept that building for the
community. It used to be an old butcher shop and they have little shops in that. So they have
found ways to keep that our old buildings just as individuals . Grove Farm can do it too. Anybody
else? (None) . People don' t live in there now yea? Everybody is gone from there. Alright so take
our suggestions and the fact that other people can do it and when you are the budget you know
with the bean counters, tell them about Linda Moriarty and the Seto family and they can, the
bean counters , can make it happen. Anyone else? Thank you so much for letting us do that and
thank you for this nice presentation.

SECTION 5 . GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT PROPERTY AND
IDENTIFICATION OF SURROUNDING LANDS .
5 . 1 Adjacent Property. Kuhio Highway forms the northern boundary of the
Subject Property. Across Kuhio Highway to the north is the Kilauea Estates Subdivision, Unit
II . Two lots identified by Kauai Tax Map Key Nos , (4) 5-02-013 : 002 and 003 are located
{w:1D0csi28027nnu0 12681 l .uoc} - 13 -
immediately west and south of the Subject Property. Both of these parcels have single-family
(farm dwelling) structures on them, as well as agricultural activities . The eastern portion of the
Subject Property is bounded by the Kilauea Stream. Across the stream from the Subject Property
are large agricultural lots and farm dwelling uses. The Subject Property is part of the Kilauea
Plantation Subdivision, which includes agricultural uses and farm dwellings ,
5 .2 Natural Environment.
a. General Description, The Subject Property is located within
the Kilauea Plantation Subdivision, in an area of former sugar lands. The Subject Property is
characterized by gently rolling, level pasture grasslands, located at an elevation of approximately
300 feet to 350 feet above mean sea level . The eastern end of the Subject Property slopes into
the Kilauea Stream.
b . Soils. As shown on Kauai Sheet Number 25 of the Soil Survey
prepared by the Soil Conservation Service of the U. S . Department of Agriculture attached as
Exhibit "T" , the soils within the Subject Property are classified as MeB and RR. Soils within
these classifications are described as follows :
( 1 ) The level areas of the Subject Property (and the area in
which the Development will occur) belong to the Makapili series (designated MeB) . The
Makapili soil series consists of well-drained soils on the uplands of Kauai. These soils are used
for pasture, irrigated sugarcane and woodland. The natural vegetation consists of kikuyugrass,
guava, Java plum, and pangolagrass. In a representative profile, the surface layer is brown silty
clay about 12 inches thick.
( W:/DOCS/28027/E/W012681 LDOC) 44-
(2) The subsoil is about 48 inches thick and consists of clay
loam and silty clay loam. The soils on the sloped portions of the Subject Property adjacent to the
Kilauea Stream are characterized as Rough, Broken Land (designated rRR) . Rough broken land
(rRR) consists of very steep land broken by numerous intermittent drainage channels. In most
places it is not stony . It occurs in gulches and on mountainsides on all the islands except Oahu .
The slope is 40 to 70 percent . Runoff is rapid, and geologic erosion is active. These soils are
variable. They are 20 to more than 60 inches deep over soft, weathered rock. In most places
some weathered rock fragments are mixed with the soil material. Small areas of rock outcrop,
stones, and soil slips are common, Included in mapping were areas of colluvium and alluvium
along gulch bottoms. This land type is used primarily for watershed and wildlife habitat. In
places it is used also for pasture and woodland . The dominant natural vegetation in the drier
areas consists of guava, lantana, Natal redtop, bermuda-grass, koa haole, and molassesgrass.
Oliia, kukui, koa, and ferns are dominant in the wetter areas. Puakeawe, aalii, and sweet
vernalgrass are common at the higher elevations.
This land covering the Subject Property is classified by the Detailed Land
Classification — Island of Kauai, dated December 1967, as "U" , "C-75 " and "E-90 " as shown on
Map No . 78 attached hereto as Exhibit "U". The "U " classification ("Urban") is used for lands
that were not historically used for agriculture purposes. Most of the level land within the Subject
Property is within the "U" classification since this area was historically used as the plantation
manager's residence and not for agriculture. The "U" classification recognizes this historical use.
A small portion of the Subject Property, south of the entry Driveway, is within the "C-75 "
classification. This designation means that the overall productivity rating for the area is "C" ,
{w:/DOCS/28027/1/1V0126811 .DOC} 45 -
which is the third lowest productivity rating. For specific crops the rating for this land is "d" for
pineapple and sugar cane and "c" for vegetables, forage, grazing and orchards . It is well suited
for machine tillability and nonstony. The slope for this class of land is between 0- 10 percent.
The soil is moderately fine and well drained. The other soil classification within the Subject
Property is "E-90" which is soil classification around the Kilauea Stream. This designation
means that the overall productivity rating for this area is "E" which is the lowest productivity
rating. The productivity rating for all crops (pineapple, sugar cane, vegetables, forage, grazing
and orchards) is also "e " . This soil is not suitable for machine tillability and classified as being
nonstony to rocky. The slope in this area is between 36-80 degrees .
c. Rainfall . The Subject Property receives approximately 70 inches
to 80 inches of annual rainfall.
d. Botanical/Biological Resources. The Subject Property is an
improved residential lot. It is presently covered for the most part with mowed and maintained
pasture grasses. There are no known endangered biological species utilizing, or endangered
botanical species located on, the Subject Property.
e. Flood Zones. The Subject Property is situated within Flood
Zone X (Areas outside of 500 year flood plain), as shown on the County of Kauai's flood

material impact on the value of, or real property taxes assessed against, surrounding properties.
7 . 10 Population. The Development will not result in an increase in population.
7 . 11 Traffic Circulation. The major roads which service the Subject Property
are Kuhio Highway, which is a State highway, and Kuawa Road, which is privately owned.
Kuawa Road has good sight distances in the vicinity of the Subject Property. Access to the
Subject Property via Kuawa Road is by the Driveway (which is on the pole portion of the
Subject Property) . Cars entering and leaving the Subject Property have been able to, and will
continue to be able to, access the Subject Property in a safe manner, and will not endanger traffic
on any road. The proposed Development will not result in a substantial increase in traffic in this
area. The existing Driveway is improved with crush and compacted gravel. At its narrowest
point it is 12' wide and widens to 23 ' where two -way traffic can easily be accommodated . A
bride spans an irrigation ditch or auwai at the eastern end of the Driveway. The bridge is
approximately 12' wide. Private roadways are allowed within the SLUC Agricultural District

Property in which the Development will occur are located in the Kaua'i General Plan Open Land
Use Designation are set forth in Section 5 .3 of the Kaua'l General Plan, which provides in relevant
part as follows:
(W:(DOCS/28027/1 AV012681 I .DOC) -2 l -
"5.3. 1 Policy
(a) The intent of the Open designation is to preserve,
maintain or improve the natural characteristics of
non-urban land and water areas that:
(1 ) are of significant value to the public
as scenic or recreation resources;
(2) perform essential physical and
ecologic functions important to the welfare of
surrounding lands, waters, and biological
resources;
(3) have the potential to create or exacerbate soil
erosion or flooding on adjacent lands;
(4) are potentially susceptible to natural hazards
such as flood, hurricane, tsunami, coastal
erosion, landslide or subsidence; or
(5) form a cultural, historic or archaeological
resource of significant public value.
(b) Lands designated Open shall include ; important
landforms such as mountains, coastal bluffs, cinder
cones, and stream valleys; native plant and wildlife
habitat; areas of predominantly steep slopes (20
percent or greater); beaches and coastal areas
susceptible to coastal erosion or hurricane, tsunami,
or storin-wave inundation; wetlands and flood plains;
important scenic resources; and known natural,
historic and archaeological resources. Open shall
also include parks, golf courses, and other areas
connnitted to outdoor recreation.
(c) Lands designated Open shall remain predominantly
free of development involving buildings, paving and
other construction. With the exception of kuieanas
and other small lots of record, any construction that is

open character of the surrounding lands . . . . "
( WIDOCS/28027/1 /W0126811 .DOC) -22-
9.2 Kaua'1 General Plan Agriculture Land Use Desi nom, A small portion of
the Subject Property where the Driveway is located is in the Kaua'i General Plan Agriculture Land
Use Designation. The policies governing such lands are set forth in Section 5 .4 of the Kaua'i
General Plan, which provides in relevant part as follows:
" 5.2. 1 Policy
(a) Lands included within the Agriculture designation
shall be predominantly used for or held in reserve to
be used in the future for agricultural activities. These
activities include the breeding, planting, nourishing
and caring for, gathering, and processing of any
animal or plant organism, including aquatic animals
and plants, for the purpose of producing food or
material for non-food products; the conunercial
growing of flowers or other ornamental plants; the
commercial growing of forest products; and the
commercial breeding and caring for domestic animals
and pets,
(b) The primary intent of the Agriculture designation is
to conserve land and water resources in order to :
(1 ) insure an excellent resource base for existing
and potential agricultural uses;
(2) assure a sufficient supply of land available for
sale or lease at a cost that is economically
feasible for agricultural enterprise; and
(3 ) promote and preserve open agricultural lands
as a key element of KauaTs rural character
and lifestyle, essential to its image as "The
Garden Island" and to the continued viability
and development of Kaua'i's visitor industry.
(c) In administering zoning and subdivision regulations,
the County shall seek to preserve important
agricultural lands. Important agricultural lands
include those designated "A" or "B" by the Land
Study Bureau evaluation or "Prime" or "Unique" by
the Agricultural Lands of Importance State of Hawaii
( WIDOCS/28027/11W012G81 LDOC) -23 -
evaluation; provided that these ratings shall be
superseded at such time as the State of Hawai'i
officially snaps and designates Important Agricultural
Lands, as mandated in the State Constitution.
(d) Lands designated Agriculture shall include: important
agricultural lands; lands in active agricultural use;
lands with potential for agriculture, silviculture or
aquaculture; and other lands not suited for urban
development because of location, topography,
economy of public services, or other purpose related
to general health, safety and welfare.
(e) The secondary intent of the Agriculture designation is
to provide an opportunity for Kauai citizens to reside
in an agricultural conununity. An "agricultural
community" is an area that has both agricultural uses
and residences. Typically, an agricultural community
is established through subdivision of land and
provision of roads and potable water service.
Agricultural communities are generally located in
outlying areas, do not have convenient access to
County facilities, and may not receive the full range
or highest level of County services such as are
available to residential communities, towns, and
urban centers.
(f) The primary intent of the Agriculture designation
shall take precedence over the secondary intent.
(g) To implement the Agriculture designation, specific
controls on the subdivision and alteration of
designated lands shall be formulated to prevent the
dissipation of agricultural potential, the loss of rural
character, and the dispersal of residential and other
urban uses.
(h) The following principles shall be applied in the
development of an agricultural community :
( 1 ) maintain irrigation works and
easements where feasible and beneficial to
(w:moCSr28027nnv012681 i .noC) m24-
existing or potential agricultural uses within
the site or downstream; and
(2) preserve wetlands and streams and
provide a riparian buffer area to prevent land
disturbance and to filter runoff."
943 Development's Compliance with Kauai General Plan Standards. There are
no new uses being proposed within the General Plan Agriculture District. The existing Driveway
use within the Agriculture District is consistent with the General Plan standards since it follows the
concept of an " agricultural community" that includes provisions for roads and water service. The
Development itself will have no significant impact on the surrounding environment. The
Development is designed to be consistent and complement the existing historic Manager's House as
well as the topography of the Subject Property. Most of the Development will occur within the
urban, residential zoned areas of the Subject Property and not within the Open District. The
Development will also include agricultural uses (such as water systems, green houses, and gardens)
that are compatible with other uses in the area, as well as with the surrounding environment. As
such, the Development complies with the Kauai General Plan policy for the Open Designation in
that it : will help to preserve, maintain and improve the natural characteristics of the area; will allow

THE KILAUEA PLANTATION
The Kilauea Plantation recently went out of business after over 100
years of sugar plantation operation . Architecturally , the Kilauea
Plantation complex is. unique in its use of stone as a basic construction
material and is carried through as a unifying element into all aspects
of the community from the plantation manager ' s house , plantation store
and several of the churches in the area,:` The largest and most elaborate
structure in the complex is the Kilauea Plantation Manager ' s House . The
building is an elaborate two story structure with stone construction on
the first floor and wood frame construction on the second floor with the
exterior finish being of wood shingles . The of the house has a low.
t
} pitch hip roof with a wide overhang with small gable projections at the
i
I
extreme ends of the hip . . There is a central port-cochere which projects
over the driveway and is supported with stone columns and connects to a
shed
single story/roof which is supported by similar stone columns and covers
a wide open porch on the entry side of the house . Low stone walls run
between the stone columns . The port- cochere connects at the center of the
building and from that point the building projects in two directions
j
Q
} with each wing being not quite 90 degrees to each other . At the entry
side three projections occur interrupting the slope of the hip roof
exterior
creating a lower pitchedroof _ with large windows set in the higher/walls .
These projections give a unique rhythm to this side of the structure and
place importance on the three rooms of the second floor which the
windows relate to . The house is only one room deep with wide French
door openings on the lower level and wide rectilinear window openings on
the second floor which provide for a substantial amount of ventilation .
IL
At the covered porch level , a lower roof . continues around the house and
intersects a single story service wing to the left of the main entry .
Page 2
The Kilauea Plantation
The main entry is directly opposite the central port-cochere and opens
into a entry foyer . To the right is a large living room , to the left
the dining room- kitchen areas . A curved stair gives access to the second
floor sleeping quarters . The extremely large rooms and large kitchen-
service area attest to the great deal of entertaining that the plantation
managers were expected to provide . The house built . circa 1925 to ' 30
during which time a number of the plantations , both sugar and pineapple
on the Island of Kauai , were building large ostentatious plantation
managers ' houses as a symbol of their prosperity and prestige . This
structure appears to have been built with this in mind . It is a large
rambling structure of impressive size with a unique plan and architectural
character of no easily distinguishable style but within character of the
other buildings in the Kilauea area . The house sits on a knoll which
slopes in all four directions . In the direction of the front of the house
is an extremely large , extensive lawned area with a gently rolling slope ,
a large number of various trees that are full grown , small stone lily

Houses for the supervisors constructed circa 1920 are similar to the

have low pitched hip roofs , small gable projections at the hip ends and

The town is becoming increasingly tourist conscious due to its close proximity to
the Wailua hotles .
Of interest in the area are . the Mormon Church , the Episcopal . Church and the
site of the Valley House , home of Zephaniah Spaulding , a sugar baron of the 1880 ' s .
Kilauea
Kilauea Plantation was 96 years old when it closed down last year ( 1971 ) .
The town of KI %40aKilauea was very typical of many plantation' towns but it was unique
in one way . Many of the plattation houses , the offices and dispensary were all bu4it
from the rocks found in the fields . There was a unique manner of construction and
the houses were sur& ly durable . The Plantation Manager ' s house , bullt of this

Aloha Jody and Shan ,
Please find below description , plans ; and damage photo of our bridge rail repair project
on the 1938 Hanapepe River highway bridge . Please note that this project has been bid out
and awarded ( $117 , 500 ) , however I am finding that my due diligence on this project has been a
bit insufficient .
I spoke with our Construction manager just now , ,and requested that we hold off on project.
start until Ray and/ or , myself has an opportunity to present this project before the KCHPRC .
I am humbly requesting that this item be added to the agenda for the June 6 meeting .
Best regards ,

Aloha Farley ,
Back in July 2009 , approximately 18 lineal feet of oriiginal rail of our State highway bridge
suffered collision damage from driver found to be
intoxicated ( see attached photo ) . An interim fix was performed next day
by re - setting the railing in - place , and installing temporary steel bracing supports on the
facsia side of rail , which is the present condition .
Our HDOT Bridge section designed a structural repair project consisting of removing and
disposing damaged concrete , installing new dowel horizontal and vertical reinforcing , and re -
pouring concrete bridge sidewalk to match surroundings . No construction work will take - place
within the waters of Hanapepe River , however all work will take place above the waters of
Hanapepe River .
SHPO and State DCAB/ADA folks have reviewed this project earlier .
Note 19 on the attached plan Sheet 2 requires that a debris barrier be installed under the
work area .
2
T apologize that T may not have checked with you earlier - we are getting ready to construct
the repairs and have selected a contractor to begin work very soon . Again., sorry about my
rushed request .
Please provide us with your/your staff ' s comments on this project based on the 5 plan sheets
here provided .
Thank you ,

This letter is in response to a communication dated October 4, 2011 , received on October 7, 2011 , regarding repairs
needed on the Kaumualii Highway Hanapepe River Bridge. In July 2009 a vehicular collusion loosened a 20 foot
long section of the bridge railing. Repairs will require replacing a portion of the existing slab (rebar to rernain) and
repositioning the original railing. New steel would be embedded in the replacement concrete patches. The repaired
section is designed to blend in with the remaining bridge rails. No alteration of the railing or sidewalk is proposed,
.The Area of Potential Effect (APE) would be the bridge footprint.
The Hanapepe Bridge was constructed in 193 8 and is a T-beam structure with three spans. It is eligible for the
Hawaii Register of Historic Places under Criterion A (Events — development of highway systems around the islands
in the 1920s and 30s) and C (Architecture),
S11PD acknowledges architectural drawings of the work and two photographs as documentation.
SHPD concurs that the project will have no adverse effect on historic property. We ask that the National Park
Service Preservation Brief 415: Preservation of Historic Concrete (http://�vww.nps, izov/histoly/hps/tps/briefs/briefl5.pdf)
be used as a technical reference in the repair of this,historic bridge.
Any questions should be addressed to Ross W, Stephenson, SHPD Historian, at (808) 692-8028 (office), (808) 497-

In the event that historic resources, including human skeletal remains, lava tubes, and lava blisters/bubbles are identified during
construction activities, all work should cease in the immediate vicinity of the find, the find should be protected from additional
disturbance, and the State Historic Preservation Division should be contacted immediately at (808) 692-8015.

The Miike house on this tract is another representative example of how an
agriculturalist's house in Hanalei has developed over time . Adjacent to a taro
field in cultivation , the house was damaged during hurricane Iwa. The
traditional end- gabled house combines its traditional vernacular
elements�overhang on the roof, rear shed , board and batten walls—with such
popular components as picture windows. Nelson Miike , who was born in this
house , says three generations of his family were born in this house making it
over 60 years old . Like others in Hanalei , the adjacent fields produced rice until
the 1950s. The concrete slab where rice grains were separated from the straw
is located to the rear of the house ; and a garage has been built over it . The ,
Miike family first came to Hanapepe ; then to Kealia to work sugar and finally to
Hanalei to take over rice fields from the Chinese . The rice produced on this site
was milled at the Haraguchi Mill in the Hanalei Valley . This farm , isolated from
other development yet visible from the main road , still provides a strong sense
of the historic feeling of such a dwelling and its related wetland agriculture .

We built a "arehouse . in the ' front several
years backo
ladivmdual rice farms We stopped doing
rice in . the late 40 , s because. we couldn' t
compete., with California, We milled
at Haraguchi. f s rice .mill , we changed
to taro and rn5 husband began to work
for the county to make ends _meet . At
first we had 16 acres of l dde before
it was lot of Chinese workers from China
they were single men ind some of lived
