The Subdivision Committee meeting of the Planning Commission convened on November 10, 2025, to review preliminary and final subdivision applications, extension requests, and public comments. The committee addressed one deferral regarding a store expansion due to Public Works engineering requirements, approved a four-lot subdivision, and approved a two-lot consolidation involving an abandoned state right-of-way. Additionally, two extension requests for long-running subdivision projects (Kucoyula and Molo Farms) were granted, while a final subdivision approval for a lot consolidation was deferred pending a required Kamapuhi (Kapalikai) analysis. Commissioner Strayford, Commissioner Nellis (also referred to as Nales/Comissioner Nalis in transcript), and Commissioner Cherick formed a quorum and voted on all items.
Five and I'd like to call to to order the subdivision committee meeting of the planning commission. Morning, Chair, members of the commission, first order of business roll call. Commissioner Strayford. Here. Commissioner Nales. Here. Cherical. Here. You have a quorum, Mr. Chair. Next, we'll have the approval of the agenda. The department doesn't have any recommended changes to the agenda. I move to approve the agenda. Is there a second? All those in favor for the approval of the agenda say aye. Aye. All those opposed. The agenda is approved. We have no minutes. We have no additional receipt of items for the record. Um last minute comments were received from public works for one of the agenda items forthcoming onto unfinished business preliminary subdivision map approval subdivision application number S-2025-1. Suyuka store expansion project SMK Inc. proposed 11 lot consolidation into one lot. TMK's 2-8-008-020-022 through 029-0340 located in Kolo Kuwait. I don't have anybody signed up to testify on this agenda item. Are there any members of the public that would like to testify on this agenda item? Seeing none and recognizing the business we have today. Um the department is ultimately recommending requesting a deferral on this to further work for the applicant to further work with public works engineering. So the department is asked for a deferral, quite honestly, because they'll be coming back with um responses to public works requirements. But if you guys have any questions about it, how long uh how long of uh uh deferral? Uh Kenny of a recommendation. So we recently received um after writing this supplement report. We received um updated comments from the Department of Public Works Engineering Division. Um we will be scheduling this subdivision application on the December 9th planning commission meeting for uh preliminary subdivision approval. Thank you. Kenny, if I can ask a question. Um there is a uh there's a page four of the application under C it says that they're looking at a roundabout by at Koloa Road and Poipu Road. I believe that's not the intersection that they're looking at in terms of the roundabout because that Koloa Road and Poipu Road would be where the uh gas station is. I think right. Um yes, that's correct. So I think the future improvements um road will be for a roundabout at uh route intersection as well as um the color road and maluillo road intersection. So there's two two roundabouts actually three. There's gonna be another one in Poipu actually. Okay, great. But that that could be reflected in here because this doesn't make any sense that that would help and that this particular one at Poipu and Koloa Koloa Road would actually help the uh getting into Suecas. Okay, we'll do it. We'll work with the applicant. Thank you. Okay, do you have anybody from the applicant that would like to add to this discussion right here? Good morning, Madame Annie Slender from Esaki Surveying here on behalf of the applicant.
