Communication 362 <br /> Bill 123 <br /> Page 12 of 13 <br /> Council Chair Higa stated he did not volunteer to facilitate bringing KSBE to the discussion table <br /> and is deferring to Committee Chair Pilago. County needs to look at planning because in the past <br /> planning for Kona wasn't done well. Personally feels road is needed, but if Committee Chair <br /> Pilago is not in support, he will not support it. <br /> Council Member Holschuh stated the postponement should not be for longer than one month. He <br /> agrees with Council Chair Higa that we find out what the road fair share figures are and get <br /> KSBE to come to the table. <br /> Committee Chair Pilago stated he is against the postponement. This matter was postponed in <br /> August 2005, we held a public hearing in which public testified against the project, it was then <br /> postponed again and Applicant still comes back with the same offer. The road is not an issue. <br /> The issue is this is the wrong thing to do. The decision, "up" or "down," is long overdue. <br /> Committee Vice Chair Hoffmann asked Ms. Nee for her personal opinion regarding <br /> postponement. She responded she didn't know if postponement would make a difference or <br /> frustrate the public even more because KSBE is slow. However, she agrees with postponement. <br /> Council Chair Higa stated he would support postponement and make the effort and pursue a <br /> phone call to KSBE. If can't get anywhere with KSBE, then he'll support Committee Chair <br /> Pilago. <br /> Council Member Safarik stated to keep this alive is frustrating. Agrees with Committee Chair <br /> Pilago and won't support postponement. <br /> <br /> Committee Chair Pilago calls for the question. Motion to postpone Bill 123 received 5 no votes. <br /> Motion was defeated. The motion to amend Bill 123 received 5 no votes, and that Motion was <br /> <br /> defeated. <br /> PC REPORT NO. 54 <br /> <br />
