and so when the time extension was required or needed, Dr. Rodrigues reached out to me and,
<br /> thus, here we are.
<br /> RODRIGUES: Hi, I'm Trevor, I'm Trevor Rodrigues. I'm the veterinarian that's trying to build
<br /> a clinic. We have an existing clinic right now on Holomua Street, and the plan is to move
<br /> operations to the new place.
<br /> FUKE: I'd just like, would like to just amplify on what, you know, your staff had kind of
<br /> pointed out. There was an initial time ext—administrative time extension granted. Shortly
<br /> thereafter, then Dr. Rodrigues proceeded aggressively to retain-the services of consultants,
<br /> architects, so on and so forth. Then he had, the Plan Approval
<br /> was issued, and it took a while
<br /> before the Building Permit could be issued. It actually tool Gybe about a year and a half. So,
<br /> when the pen-nit was finally issued in October of 20I8,1_1h6V_ ine for having the building
<br /> occupied would have been of July of 2019.
<br /> And so, you know, there was like about an est ed 12-to 18-month-co----truction window, so
<br /> obviously, you know, he wasn't going to have enough time. He had a contractor already lined
<br /> up, financing with the bank,but the bank would ase the,money until M-encumbrance is
<br /> kind of like overcome. ___-- ----------
<br /> .. .....---
<br /> During the course of the preparing the Building'Pelm it, almost all of the conditions
<br /> that,that were attached to the original Z-M- changeiave been-snot. You know, things such as
<br /> like your access location, your improvemdnts- to the 10=` so forth. These are all
<br /> kdewalk, so
<br /> ------lied with was just setting
<br /> kind of articulated in the- The d&-thingfW-wis,not complied
<br /> aside the ten additio6t'f(o I o-troadn -ofwaynd lhat'sj be worked upon, you know,
<br /> subject to the Commis s4on and C6Wftv Counciljfproval of the time extension.
<br /> So, one other thing is that duruig the courseof thesendingnotices to the surrounding property
<br /> 0—
<br /> owners, I dizl receive a--,-call ft6ffiA__e neighborn ether this was going to be like a pet
<br /> _--on
<br /> hotel wffi&rd you have overnight dccbmmodatidfiijbr dogs, so on and so forth, and the concern
<br /> was if you then, you know, could create a lot of noise, you know, in that area. But,
<br /> Dr. Rodrigues affirmed that tis this is fdally like a hospital. So, only the sick and infirmed will
<br /> be housed there- nd there will-.,b- housmg&%' an enclosed area where basically where a little
<br /> noise would emanate from the p"_ erty.
<br /> CLARKSON: Any questions for Applicant or—
<br /> AU: —Mr. Chair, I have aqu"estion. You mentioned that a contractor was selected. Do you
<br /> mind if I ask who was selected?
<br /> RODRIGUES: Sakoda Construction, Adam Long.
<br /> AU: Okay, so upon what happens with your application at this Commission and going through
<br /> the County Council, do you anticipate hiring the same contractor?
<br /> RODRIGUES: Yep, he's ready to go, chomping at the bit.
