HEAD: And I'll pass it over to—
<br /> YATES: I was also concerned, you know, like, you know, you wanna--I was thinking if it's
<br /> something that they're really excited about that they can also afford to live there, you know.
<br /> HEAD: That's correct, and that's, that's the intent. So, I'll pass it to Ann to address your question
<br /> regarding the parks, which I think are going to be very complimentary to having the affordable
<br /> rental housing in our, in our, within our community, so.
<br /> BOUSLOG: Yeah, thank you. So, yes, on the parks we're looking at part of it as having facilities
<br /> and active, you know play,play structures and so forth, but other parts of it we just wanted to
<br /> have unprogrammed so that people can do what they want, if there's a hula halau in the area, they
<br /> want to come have their practice there, that's wonderful. You know if, if somebody wants to go
<br /> out and kick a ball with their kids there'll be an open area for that. So, there'll be shade, there'll
<br /> be benches, and we, you know, we envision a play structure, we envision some gazebos. The
<br /> detailed planning of it will be done later,but the idea is that it'd be truly something that local
<br /> residents would enjoy, and a place where you could informally, a visitor and resident could be on
<br /> the residents' own terms in a way that, that is this honest and open between them. And, and to
<br /> encourage some of the local resident use of it, there's also parking provided. Understanding that,
<br /> you know, visitors to the resort may be able to walk there,but a resident who doesn't happen to
<br /> live at the affordable housing across the street,but maybe lives in, you know, HOlualoa or
<br /> anywhere else can drive down and enjoy that park.
<br /> YATES: Thank you.
<br /> BOEDEKKER: If I can just add one part too,with the Foundation, as it relates to the parks, I
<br /> think it's important to note, and I think I touched on it a little bit, but one of the goals that we
<br /> certainly will have once the workforce housing is up and running and the families are here is the
<br /> integration of that community into the Waikoloa Beach Resort which would, you know, we can
<br /> program the, the park systems and have actual programs for families here that hasn't necessarily
<br /> been here before, because we've had a visitor base. We would now focus our attentions more on
<br /> the kama`aina.
<br /> VITOUSEK: And I'm sorry if I missed it, but was the question about the bathrooms in the park
<br /> answered? Is there, is there bathrooms in the gateway parks?
<br /> FUKE: I will have to--
<br /> BOUSLOG: We haven't shown bathrooms in the parks, yet the--that's something would
<br /> definitely be worth considering, and you know the detailed plans for parks will get developed
<br /> and they will, can be reviewed by the County before they apply for permits.
<br /> VITOUSEK: Because if I know anything about little kids is they use the bathroom a lot.
<br /> BOUSLOG: Understood. I like nice bathrooms too.
