CHIN: Correct. It's not that these—granting the permit is not going to erase the fact that Ms. Cash has to be responsible and accountable for the past violations. That would be something that we would work out with County Corporation Counsel and fully intend to do so. VAN PERNIS: - - - CHIN: - -CHIN: - - - county's approachI'm sorry, I'm so sorry, CommissionerI just think the county's approach is, it's this idea, keep the fines hanging over the applicant in order to get them into compliance and then once all of that is pau and set and moving forward, then you go, okay, now let's look at what these daily fines were and let's come up with an appropriate settlement now, which, that would be a normal way to reso- I mean, at least in my mind for my own experience, that would be a typical way to resolve this kind of situation. VAN PERNIS: And do you have a time frame that you could provide for that settlement to take place? CHIN: I think we would love to get it settled as quickly as possible. I think we were waiting for this very important decision to come through. And so that's the, you know, getting a yea or nay from the commission today would be very helpful towards moving us to being able to get that part resolved. Time frame, as you can see, I'm wiggling around on that. I mean I think a lot of that has to do with talking to Corporation Counsel. But I think we are motivated to try to get Ms. Cash resolved in this, you know, nobody wants this kind of litigation hanging over them. VAN PERNIS: Thank you CARR SMITH: Thank you very much - - - VAN PERNIS: - - - I'd like to say that I've been to the Ranch in years past, I know some of the people who have at least submitted written testimony, and I've considered all of the things related to this hearing testimony, paperwork—and I, my bias and opinion is to, is favorable, subject to the conditions of Mr. Yee, not those of Mr. Chin submitted a day ago, because they don't serve the people, they serve Ms. Cash. So I assume the biased opinion and my announcement over here does not disqualify me from further participation in this proceeding. Thank you. CARR SMITH: Thank you, Mr. Van Pernis. Barbara, I think you had your hand up. Go ahead. DEFRANCO: Yeah, I was this is for Mr. Chin and for Mr. Yee. And I really appreciate the presentation. Thank you, everyone, for working on this project. But it was in this, the latest letter that we got from you, Mr. Chin, about Rule number 17, landscaping requirements, that you were asking to be deleted in its entirety, and I wanted to dispute to this. Thank you. CHIN: 17, Condition number 17-1 just want to make sure we are looking at the same thing because Condition number 17 doesn't talk about landscaping; it talks about complaint process. 18 EXHIBIT D
