A. Planning, Zoning and Environment Committee – Donna Wong, Chair

Motion: to reconsider Board position, adopted at November 4, 2008 KNB meeting, in opposition to variance application for 1336 Mokulua Drive

"The Kailua Neighborhood Board opposes the zoning variance at 1336 Mokulua Drive to allow two (2) single-family dwellings on a single zoning lot, which lacks the required lot area because the applicant does not meet the three (3) criteria (Land Use Ordinance (LUO) Section 6-909 and 6-910) for a variance. (1) the applicant would be deprived of the reasonable use of such land or building if it were used only for the purpose allowed in that zone; (2) the request of the applicant is due to unique circumstances and not the general conditions in the neighborhoods; and (3) the use sought to be authorized by the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality nor be contrary to the intent and purpose of the zoning ordinance"

Motion: The Kailua Neighborhood Board supports Hawaii's Doctors in their effort to promote legislative Medical Liability Reform.
