1.0 Statement & Achievements

janine shinoki clifford has advanced the profession of architecture through extraordinary leadership in the realm of inquiry-based design for over 20 years. Her hall-mark work is deeply rooted in the belief that when design and research are combined with 21st-century innovative and often-experimental technology, this synthesis can yield in undreamed and soul-satisfying results.

clifford’s pioneering spirit is best exemplified by her success as Harvard’s first experimental, remote, real-time distant learning doctoral design candidate. With the success of that venture, she later became a remote, real-time urban design professor at Harvard. Her work continues to explore the impact in which the internet may have on our built environment and on the way we practice—What happens to our environs when where we choose to live and work are no longer locality-linked?

clifford believes that effective designers envision the body to space relationship at any scale. This heart-felt belief has lead her to meld throughout her career, architecture and architectural interiors with planning principals. Her most noted award-winning work entails communities that consider the region, the neighborhood, the structure and the interiors—a life beyond that which the artifact was originally designed. consequently, clifford is a licensed architect in several states and in New South Wales, Australia. She is also a certified planner and certified interior designer. Her research-based work and thoughts on the future of housing won her a co-fellowship with the Harvard Kennedy school of government and Harvard Design school’s internationally prestigious Joint center for Housing studies think tank where she authored the white paper—The Computer as a Household Appliance in the Subsidized Housing Arena.

What happens if we combine creative research and experimentation? For clifford, this combination often becomes a laboratory for both private and public-sector projects. she is able to reconcile design excellence with the reality of limited resources; Her fascination with the way we live has led her to design one of the first low-income housing tax credit conversions in the

state of Hawaii and to develop innovative land planning techniques for new housing communities in a place where land is preciously finite. Her design influence has extended internationally—from affordable housing in Honolulu and american samoa to luxury housing in denaru, Fiji and bogotá, colombia.

janine shinoki clifford’s work has been recognized by the Honolulu chapter aia institute, the national as-sociation, the american society of interior Designers, and Building industry association. she has also been recognized by the Hawaii state senate and House of Representatives for her historic preservation work in the community.

Her work has also appeared in several publications, including the Harvard gazette, Venture Magazine, cadence Magazine, nikken architecture and Dialogue (a gensler publication). she is co-editor of the award-winning research-based book, Pōhaku: the Art and architecture of stonework in Hawai‘i. she has published several white papers and booklets on the Internet’s influ-ence on the way we live at Harvard and at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

janine shinoki clifford’s sense of civic duty—or the notion of the citizen architect—is ingrained. she is keenly aware that we can only lead by example. Her influence in this arena is international. she is a founding member of the institute for international Urban Development. The institute supports urban issues in countries of conflict and Third World Countries. Regionally, she is a founding member of the Hawaii architectural Foundation (HaF) whose mission is to support community awareness of architecture.

Founder and principal of the Honolulu-based firm, clifford planning & architecture LLc, janine shinoki clifford is a dedicated mentor to architecture students and young professionals, and particularly women through the firm’s perpetual paid intern program.

Her inquisitive nature has always led her to ask the very question—What can be?

Accomplished urbanist architect, Janine shinoki Clifford cultivates innovation in a global economy through a synthesis of scholarly

researCh, cutting-edge teChnology implementation and design. Her knowledge sharing, professional leadership and digital-

optimization-based collaboration elevates higher education, benefits practice and community.

Recently, Gensler capitalized on clifford’s remote collaboration capac-

ity and BIM modeling capabilities. Gensler’s partnership with clifford and a consortium of 21 other regional profes-

sional small businesses won the design and construction administration of one

of the larger ARRA funded western region projects. This project converts

more than 860,000 SF of fully occu-pied courthouse and federal offices into a high-performance, energy efficient,

LEED work place of the future under the GSA’s first impressions, design

excellence program.–

SECTION 1 – SUMMARY

Dwight K. Mitsunaga, AIA

DWI GHT K. MI TS UNA G A, AI A (PR A CTI CE) 30 0 35 45 3 Dwight K. Mitsunaga, AIA’s expertise in innovative project delivery methods has provided guidance and education for design professionals, interns and clients in the initiation of proven alternatives for successful project execution. Dwight has been involved with alternative project deliveries throughout his entire architectural career. His first-hand research and applications have provided exponential impact within this area of practice. Since assuming his role as a principal architect in 1979, he has enabled numerous design professionals, interns and clients associated with his projects to pass on their knowledge of varying project delivery methods. His extensive education and professional development within the building industry has allowed him to provide mentorship and assistance to numerous others. In 1998 Dwight created a new market through his utilization of electronically dedicated project delivery sites to capitalize on the differences associated with time and distance. He successfully marketed to West Coast firms that, his firm’s remote location in Hawaii with its time differential, would allow for an increase in their productivity and profit. He introduced this concept to KMB Design Group of Olympia, Washington and RAW International of Los Angeles. His perception and efforts were successful, as evidenced by those firms and others currently promoting their ability to service clients 24/7 through distance resource applications. He currently retains additional project support from sources in Shanghai, China. Dwight has successfully developed a design-build model that allows the architect, in the lead role, to provide consistent services from design to construction execution. Consistent project involvement; continuous reviews of scoping, documentation, innovative product development; and immediate problem resolution allow for an efficient and successful project delivery. The Small Business Administration (SBA) has certified his architectural company as a licensed design-build entity. He has resolved the issues of insurance, bonding, and conflicts pertaining to design-build roles and responsibilities. His project delivery model allows interns and architects to expand their skills and involvement in the building industry. His ability to effectively feature combined architectural and construction management skills increases the value of architectural interns as a beneficial project management resource pool for contractors. Dwight Mitsunaga’s extensive experience allows him to recommend appropriate delivery methods with authority. Isolated locale factors, especially within the Pacific Basin, create the need for project delivery innovation since project costs often inflate beyond affordability. He has also been very instrumental in apprising national consultants of the differing conditions and situations in Hawaii and the Pacific Basin. In crucial meetings, he has provided them insight as to the impact of high land, construction, living and transport costs relative to local design decisions. His information to a sustainability design consultant from South Carolina and Nevada resulted in major decision changes for a new elementary school project. His contributions to a State’s specialist from Arizona resulted in the successful introduction of a performance-based contractor selection process. Dwight also provided much needed information and clarification for the State’s prison consultant from Connecticut resulting in major program and planning changes. His willingness to share the wealth of his knowledge with other design professionals has resulted in successful executions of their commitments to the State and community.

NATIONAL

A LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE TO THE INSTITUTE

From the national to the local level, Patrick T. Onishi has crafted a legacy of service to the public and the institute. As a “Citizen Architect,” he is a respected leader and advocate for issues of design and public policy.

Over four decades of practice, Patrick Onishi has established himself as a leader and mentor within the architecture community. Pat’s commitment to the profession and the values of public service have elevated the standards to which his colleagues strive. This dedication has culminated in rising numbers of “citizen architects,” improved pub-lic policy, beautified cities, and inspired students.

Pat has served many roles at AIA National including Director, member of the Advocacy Committee and leader of the Institute’s Civic Engagement/Citizen Architect initia-tive among others. In these positions, Pat has led by his belief “that success comes through mentoring the success of others.” He believes that the AIA and the communi-ties it serves find success in similar ways: through the collaboration of people working together to accomplish what individuals cannot do alone.

Pat’s work with the AIA Northwest Pacific Region continues his quest towards making sustained positive change within the profession. Serving as regional director for three years, he has worked to promote leadership and enhance communication between the geographically widespread components of the region. Here he also served as chair of the Leadership Development Committee and the Northwest Pacific Region Leadership Institute.

Locally, Pat has become a fixture of the architecture community. Within Hawaii, he has helped shape the profession through his leadership in policy, education, professional design work, and the AIA. As Planning Director for the City and County of Honolulu, he promoted the value of neighborhoods and neighborhood identity through policy change and community planning. Here he directed the community-based revisionprograms for the City’s eight Sustainable Community Plans. He also streamlined the permitting process, therefore encouraging innovative design proposals that could improve the city. Teaching at the University of Hawaii’s School of Architecture since 1983, Pat has mentored students in the values of the Citizen Architect, guiding them through the process of advocacy and community engagement.

From AIA 150 Champ to AIA Honolulu President, Pat has inspired and encouraged the architectural community to lead by example and with integrity. As VP/President Elect, Pat led the strategic planning process that created the foundation for sustained future growth, improved public outreach, and greater Continuing Education opportunities.

Pat’s commitment to design excellence is founded in the belief that it must be driven as a collective value of community members, government, and design professionals. He believes that architects play a key role in engaging community members in mat-ters of design by promoting understanding and collaboration. In order to enjoy a high quality of life and quality of place, architects must look beyond just a single iconic proj-ect; Pat focuses instead on how architecture can enrich the fabric of the community.

The career of Patrick Onishi exemplifies the values of a true Citizen Architect. He has inspired countless architects to practice in the spirit of community and collaboration. Under his guidance and leadership at all levels of the AIA, the Citizen Architect move-ment and its values have continued to gain momentum throughout the profession.

Draft AIA Position Statement on Bill 52 (To Amend Chapter 21 of the Land Use Ordinance, relating to the Waikiki Special District)

Drafted and Approved by RUDC (9/16/11) Rev. Sept. 16, 2011

Background: The six proposed amendments to the WSD were first described in a Background Report dated May 23, 2011 written by John Whalen for the Waikiki Improvement Association. The Background Report was reviewed and approved by the Honolulu Planning Commission in July. The amendments were then written up as Bill 52 which passed First Reading at the City Council on Sept. 16. The amendments are numbered here as they were originally presented in the Background Report. Bill 52 (25 pages) contains all those sections of Chapter 21 which would be affected by the amendments. The pages noted after the amendment title refer to the relevant pages within Bill 52. The RUDC is asking for Board approval of the Proposed AIA Position Statement for each amendment. A Background/Explanation and Discussion paragraph is included for each amendment to explain the process by which the RUDC arrived at the position statements. Amendment 1: Merge the Resort Commercial Precinct with the Resort Mixed Use Precinct. (Bill 52, pages 3-4, 15-22) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment Approved Background/ Explanation: The idea of a commercial-only resort precinct, in which no visitor accommodations or hotels are allowed, was used to contain what was perceived as overly rapid expansion of hotels in Waikiki in the mid-1970’s. Since that time, Waikiki has reached its planned hotel room capacity and hotel expansion is not a concern. The commercial-only precinct is no longer needed. RUDC Discussion: To distinguish between hotel and commercial use in a Resort district is meaningless for planning since tourism nearly always combines these two uses today. The Resort Mixed Use Precinct simply recognizes the nature of modern tourism and the type of resort development that has been most successful in Waikiki. The amendment is justified. Amendment 2: Allow greater flexibility for building height. (Bill 52, page 15) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment not approved. Background/Explanation: This amendment proposes to allow additional height for any new building in Waikiki (up to the district maximum of 350’) on a case-by–case basis if the increased height does not adversely impact two specific views: 1) the view of Diamond Head from Punchbowl lookout, and 2) the mauka-makai view from the Kalakaua Avenue frontage of Fort DeRussy. New buildings built under this amendment would still be governed by existing zoning regulations (FAR, setbacks, uses) but the height could increase (up to 350’) if the developer could show (through view analysis) that a taller building would not impact the two views mentioned above. RUDC Discussion: Approval of this amendment would potentially allow any new building in Waikiki to exceed the existing building height limit so long as the additional height is not visible from Punchbowl lookout or the Kalakaua Avenue frontage of Fort DeRussy. Given that Punchbowl lookout is approximately 400 feet in elevation and approximately 3 miles from the center of Waikiki, a building at the current height limit of 350 feet at the ewa end of Waikiki would screen (and thereby allow) a building of nearly the same height located behind it (when viewed from Punchbowl) anywhere within the length of Waikiki. The current building height limit in Waikiki is 350 feet at the Ewa end tapering to 220 feet at the Diamond Head end.

Page 7: Committee Reports from Board Liaisons; September Board ... · August 19 – Pecha Kucha event at HAA September 9 – Bambu 2 – happy hour September 10,11, 18 – R&D building work

Although the view from Punchbowl is cited in the WSD as a reason for establishing building heights in Waikiki, the RUDC feels that the tapering of building heights in Waikiki has other significant public benefits, such as preserving mauka views from public viewing areas in Waikiki (7 streets are specifically cited in the WSD) and preserving views of Waikiki and Kapiolani Park from other areas (public and/or private) within central Honolulu.. The RUDC is concerned that allowing 350’ tall buildings in precincts with current height limits of 220 or 280 feet would result in an increased perception of crowding in the precincts. The RUDC believes that the tapering of building heights from Kapiolani Park to the Ewa end of Waikiki is also desirable in that it more closely resembles natural land forms than an abrupt transition from Kapiolani Park to buildings 300 to 350 feet in height. The RUDC feels this amendment is overly broad, would create numerous unforeseen “loopholes” for increased building height and would result in significant negative public impacts. Amendment 3: Provide Incentives for Improving Properties in the Apartment Precinct. (Bill 52, pages 1-2, 7-14, 21-22) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment Approved Background/ Explanation: Many of the development standards for Apartment –zoned lots in Waikiki were created to encourage consolidation of smaller lots into larger developments. This strategy has not been effective in Waikiki because small lot owners have tended to hold on to their properties. Many of these properties have deteriorated over time and current development standards are so restrictive that landowners have no incentive to rebuild. This amendment would add a “Planned Development-Apartment” (PD-A) zoning category which would allow adjustment of certain development standards (FAR, minimum open space) for lots less than 20,000 sf. For lots less than 10,000 sf and buildings less than 40 feet in height, side and rear yard setbacks would be reduced from 10 feet to 5 feet, with one additional foot of setback for every 4 feet of building height above 20 feet. A building 40 feet in height would still require a 10 foot side and rear yard setback. RUDC Discussion: This amendment would ensure a variety of housing types in Waikiki in the future and create incentives for the rebuilding of small, low-rise apartment buildings without consolidation. The proposed side and rear yard setbacks for 2-story (20 feet or less) apartment buildings would be similar to those in residential-zoned neighborhoods, which is a reasonable revision for a high-density neighborhood. Amendment 4: Expand the Apartment Mixed Use Subprecinct (Bill 52, pages 18-19, 23-24) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment portion adding Hobron Lane (mauka frontage) and Ala Moana Boulevard (mauka frontage) to the sub-precinct is approved. Amendment portion adding Seaside Avenue and Kanekapolei Street (both frontages) between Kuhio Avenue and Ala Wai Boulevard is not approved. Background/Explanation: The Apartment Mixed Use (AMX) Sub-precinct was created in 1994 primarily to recognize existing non-conforming commercial uses along the mauka side of Kuhio Ave and Ala Moana Boulevard. The amendment proposes to add 4 areas to the AMX sub-precinct: Hobron Lane in the area of Eaton Square, Seaside Avenue and Kanekapolei Street (both frontages) from Kuhio Avenue to Ala Wai Boulevard, and Ala Moana Boulevard (mauka frontage) from near Hobron Lane (existing AMX boundary) to the Ala Wai Canal. Commercial activities allowed in a standard Apartment Precinct are very limited and in some parts of the city (particularly Waikiki) this hampers the ability of businesses to serve neighborhood residents. The

Page 8: Committee Reports from Board Liaisons; September Board ... · August 19 – Pecha Kucha event at HAA September 9 – Bambu 2 – happy hour September 10,11, 18 – R&D building work

AMX Sub-Precinct has been a useful tool in allowing a wider range of businesses along the mauka frontages of Kuhio and Ala Moana Boulevard. RUDC Discussion: Including mauka frontage on Hobron Lane (Eaton Square) and mauka frontage on Ala Moana Boulevard between Hobron Lane and the Ala Wai Canal to the AMX sub-precinct is justified because it would legitimize desirable existing commercial use (Eaton Square) and extend/reinforce an existing commercial strip (Ala Moana Boulevard). The RUDC has concerns, however, with including frontages on Seaside Avenue and Kanekapolei Street between Kuhio Avenue and Ala Wai Boulevard in the sub-precinct. The RUDC feels that the existing commercial spine along Kuhio Avenue is so close (1 block) to nearly all apartment buildings in Waikiki that creating additional commercial zones mauka of Kuhio Avenue for the convenience of a few nearby residents is not justified in light of the overall negative impact on Waikiki. Extending commercial activity mauka to Ala Wai Boulevard is contrary to zoning and uses in Waikiki that progress from Resort along the ocean edge to Commercial in the center to Residential at the mauka edge. The RUDC is concerned that the extension of the AMX precinct on Seaside and Kanekapolei will result in a commercial presence on Ala Wai Boulevard that will be disruptive to the current feel of the street which has no commercial activity at present. The poplar pedestrian route along the Ala Wai Canal is enjoyed by many because of its natural vistas and residential atmosphere. The RUDC feels that the commercial-free zone along Ala Wai Canal is unique in Waikiki and worth preserving. Amendment 5: Eliminate Off-Street Parking Requirements for Small Commercial Properties (Bill 52, page 15) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment approved Background/Explanation: This amendment would exempt retail and eating establishments in ground floor and basement spaces from off-street parking requirements when they are located on lots less than 10,000 sf in size. RUDC Discussion: Given that businesses in Waikiki rely mainly on walk-in customers and the desire to enhance the pedestrian experience (by minimizing curb cuts and parking along the street), this amendment is justified. Amendment 6: Make Minor Adjustment for Vending Carts and Outdoor Dining in Front Yards (Bill 52, pages 5-7) Proposed AIA Position Statement: Amendment portion allowing more vending carts and an increase in allowable outdoor dining area is approved. Amendment portion allowing a decorative railing to be used instead of a planter or hedge to define the perimeter of outdoor dining area is not approved. Background/Explanation: This amendment would allow more vending carts (one cart per 100’ of street frontage of a zoning lot vs. the current one cart per zoning lot) in the setback areas of resort-zoned properties. It would also allow outdoor dining areas to be defined by a “decorative railing” rather than a (currently required) hedge or planter, and allow a greater percentage (100% vs. the current 40%) of the front yard to be used for outdoor dining (as an accessory to a permitted eating establishment).

Page 9: Committee Reports from Board Liaisons; September Board ... · August 19 – Pecha Kucha event at HAA September 9 – Bambu 2 – happy hour September 10,11, 18 – R&D building work

RUDC Discussion: Allowing more vending carts (limited by ordinance to selling only food or fresh flowers) is justified since it would enliven the sidewalk environment and enhance the visitor/pedestrian experience. Allowing more outdoor dining area in Waikiki is also justified in that it is a use compatible with tourism as well as appropriate for the Hawaiian climate. The RUDC supports the expansion of outdoor dining areas provided the lots affected still meet the current front yard landscaping requirements of the WSD, so that there will not be a net loss of landscaping with this portion of the amendment. The RUDC is concerned, however, with the portion of the amendment allowing a decorative railing to be used instead of a planter or hedge (currently required) along the perimeter of an outdoor dining area. The RUDC feels that plantings and natural foliage in Waikiki help offset the man-made environment and contribute to the charm of the district and therefore should be retained. The RUDC feels that with adoption of this portion of the amendment, owners of eating establishments would opt to replace planters and hedges with a less bulky railing in order to maximize outdoor dining area, resulting in a loss of greenery and negative impact on pubic space in the district.

August Financials: Summary Report

Only items which have changed will be reported.

OVERALL: See line 1555 (Z/AA) Net Income. August YTD = positive; showing $9500 over YTD total

budget. Note that paper gains mostly relate to cash flow timing. We have not actually exceeded budget

-- we have expenses pending for some programs. But we are on target (positive) YTD -- which is good!

INCOME: Line 7

Dues (4000). Line #14 Total dues.

Shows slightly ahead of budget; note we did better in YTD 2010

($141,000 YTD August 2010 vs. $137,000 YTD August 2011).

October 1 begins 15 for 12 campaign to attract new members. Invoices for renewing members for 2012

will be mailed in October. We hope to encourage members to renew ASAP. They can potentially use

renewal as a marketing/professional expense on their taxes for this year end.

Architecture Month (5100):

Line #22/ 5101. Late payment in August for design awards added $1300 to overall net gain for this

category. Total event net = $13,000!

Canstruction (Line 71/5580):

Line# 68/Z Sponsorships collected ($1100 YTD). This money IS NOT profit and will be used to fund KIDS

CORNER CANS.

Other Meetings and Awards (includes Green Schools and Misc Events):

Line 73/5591= $1750 income listed . Green schools is not yet reconciled. Should not be viewed as net

income,as there are expenses in Sept. We do anticipate slight positive for overall event.

Line 74/5592 = $500 misc sponsorship. Bays Deaver for Pecha Kucha. Net = ZERO as this money is paid

out in Sept to purchase food for event.

Other Income (5900)

Line #103- P: Royalty Income (5930). See August. Contract Documents revenue share of $4708

received. Income was budgeted for September; posted in August.

Total Income (Line 107/Z)

YTD Total Income shows net positive over budget. As noted above, this positive is mostly the result of

cash flow issues. We are on budget (positive) -- but no unexpected gains.

EXPENSES: (LINEs 109- 154= no significant changes to report

Page 19: Committee Reports from Board Liaisons; September Board ... · August 19 – Pecha Kucha event at HAA September 9 – Bambu 2 – happy hour September 10,11, 18 – R&D building work

Line 154. Total expenses on target. See 154/Z/AA YTD

NET INCOME:

YTD we are showing better than budgeted, but this should not be considered a windfall:-).

As noted earlier, any additional gains over budget are due to cash flow timeline; we have

expenses pending. We are on budget, overall, which is great. We appreciate board support

in reinforcing value of membership and early renewal. Thanks for serving as ambassadors

for AIA and please take time at the expo to thank members and welcome potential members!

AIA+2030 Survey DRAFT

Purpose of Survey: • To determine the whether we should undertake a 2030 training program for AIA Honolulu members.

• How much interest does the chapter have for this kind of training? • If so, is AIA+2030 training the right program?

Description of Program: AIA+2030 is a program designed to provide region specific design and engineering skills to reduce energy consumption and to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings in our region. Our chapter would be responsible for putting together an AIA+2030 program for our region and based upon the template developed by the Seattle chapter. The program consists of 10 sessions of 4 hours each. A brief outline of the 10 sessions follows.

1. The 2030 Challenge: Setting and achieving energy goals with integrated design.

2. Getting to 50: The Power of Targets + Load Reduction. 3. Accentuate the Positive: Climate responsive design. 4. Skins: The importance of the thermal envelope. 5. Passively Aggressive: Employing passive systems for load reduction. 6. Illuminating Savings: Daylighting and integrated lighting strategies. 7. Right-Sizing: Equipment and controls for super-efficient building systems. 8. Site Power: Renewable energy opportunities. 9. The Hand-Off & Staying in Shape: Operations, maintenance + education. 10. Putting It All Together: Achieving 2030 goals on the project and at the office.

Several other chapters have developed AIA+2030 programs for their areas and results have mixed but generally been good. To be clear, the chapters with mixed results were due to poor attendance not a poor quality of program. The program focuses on the reduction of power consumption. There are many other environmental considerations that are not part of the current program. The program would be open to all AIA members, engineers, city officials, contractors and etc. There will be learning units and a fee for the training. Survey Questions for AIA members:

1. DEMOGRAPHICS? AIA or Assoc AIA; How many years in practice? Large or small firm?

2. Is it important for the AIA to take leadership in the community for reduction of building energy consumption? (Give rating scale from most to least important + comments section); What other areas do you believe AIA should position take a lead role (in our community).

Page 21: Committee Reports from Board Liaisons; September Board ... · August 19 – Pecha Kucha event at HAA September 9 – Bambu 2 – happy hour September 10,11, 18 – R&D building work

3. Would training for the AIA+2030 program be a benefit to the profession? (Give rating scale from most to least important); What other programs do you believe would be of benefit to the profession (comments)

4. Would you find this kind of training beneficial to your career? (Give rating scale from most to least important) What other training would benefit your career?

5. Please take a moment to prioritize the type of training that would be most beneficial to you and your firm: a. Leadership training- How to grow your career. b. Business (or Project) management c. Marketing and getting work. d. Designing to reduce energy consumption. e. Designing to reduce other environmental impacts f. Community advocacy
