FUKE: Pretty much, I think like one of the testifies earlier said that they're from either
<br /> Laupahoehoe or wherever,would have to commute, and so it's, it's really like, hopefully, like
<br /> they would be given the priority to find a place to rent. You know whether it's going to be five or
<br /> six days a week, and maybe go back on the weekend. I'm not really sure. But those are the kind
<br /> of terms that would have to be identified and eventually established by the Office of Housing.
<br /> But that, you know, to answer your question directly of Commissioner Yates, that is the focus.
<br /> That is the idea behind it.
<br /> YATES: Okay, so there, and then my other qui--quick question was, I see that there's 900
<br /> timeshare units and then I see another 264 multi-family timeshare units. So, we're talking like
<br /> 1100 plus timeshare units?
<br /> FUKE: In total that, that is correct. But you know, as the staff kind of pointed out, a lot of these
<br /> properties are already zoned, and you know, some of them were capable of being developed,
<br /> such as you know, I don't like the exact number,but the Hilton Grand Vacation already had
<br /> [audio disruption] a whole bunch of property[audio disruption]. To that area that was, they were
<br /> already--they already had the development rights to construct in that area. So, so,that portion is
<br /> pretty much like outside of the equation. The, the one that's really part of the equation is within
<br /> the 900 timeshare units within the project district. As the staff and the application tried to point
<br /> out it's kind of like playing with the numbers that were considered when the project was, you
<br /> know, the Waikoloa Resort in its entirety was originally considered, and so that, that overall
<br /> density way back when in 1977 and 1991 would still not be exceeded. They're just kind of
<br /> massaging it.
<br /> YATES: Thank you.
<br /> SANDOMIRE: If I could answer your question, this is Daniel from Stanford Carr. You asked a
<br /> little bit about the affordable component and maybe I could speak to that some.
<br /> YATES: Yes.
<br /> SANDOMIRE: When we,we don't we don't envision this as a like a bunk house or a crew house
<br /> for workers. This is for families, and they'll live there full time. Our preference is always to have
<br /> the local community, the local workers there, and that's how, the way we get that is we, we
<br /> advertise locally. We don't put this out on the New York Times or something. And we end up
<br /> with a result that it's, it's local residents, local families that that will be living there. It's a full-
<br /> time community and we plan to design at least 142 units. It's a resort-style architecture we'll
<br /> have, a resort-style feel, and they'll be part of the resort community.
<br /> YATES: Yeah, well that was my concern, because if you have well you know husband, wife,
<br /> whoever's working there, you know, then you're, you're still split apart, you know?
<br /> SANDOMIRE: Sure.
<br /> YATES: Where it should [audio disruption] family.
