nothing in the Rezoning Conditions, Final Plan Approval conditions, or in the language of Hawaii County Ordinance, or in the final Subdivision Approval that allows them to arbitrarily decide not to comply. Further, that when I approached her in the subject property in 2004 and asked what their plans were, she stated that they intended a parking lot. I replied that they couldn't because of the aforementioned conditions and she answered that they "were going to do it anyway". Previous to that, Dr. Takase approached me in my yard and I asked him the same question, his answer was the same. Since 1994, when Haitsuka's first cleared the "subject property" and when it wasn't overgrown a lot of people used it for parking. Most of the time, the ACOs from the Hawaii Community Correctional Center (HCCC) parked there, usually 3 to 5 vehicles at a time. When parking space is at a premium, parkers are opportunistic. If a clearing is provided, they will park. Visitors to HCCC and inmates appearing for overnight or weekend incarceration parked there. I apprised Mr. Yamanoha from Planning about this but he said nothing could be done. We had previously requested of Dr. Takase to block the Punahele side of the lot after Haitsukas left which he did with a cable stretched between two posts. After a few months, the cable was pushed down by someone and parking resumed. It was never repaired/replaced In our earliest letters and testimony, we strongly opposed the proposed road in or out of PPB from Punahele. We also submitted letters to Public Works and Planning against any type of vehicular activity in the "subject property". When the illegal parking lot went into operation in 2006, our projections on the adverse effects were proven and it wasn't even a road. We had tried earlier in the PPB parking issues to have the Takases restrict reverse parking along our residences which they refused to do. When the illegal lot opened in 2006, most of the vehicles reverse parked. With 15 to 17 vehicles on average in the lot, most facing their exhausts at our homes, you can imagine the choking fumes, soot, etc. that we actually ingested, Monday through Friday, from about 6AM to sometimes as late as 7PM. Along with the car alarms being armed, being set off, being disarmed as employees/clients arrive/leave/run errands/go to lunch; people chatting, listening to their music, smoking next to their cars; other people changing tires/effecting small repairs on these vehicles, 9
