VITOUSEK: Okay, it's been moved and seconded now we are able to have a discussion. My understanding is the motion indicates that we are going to reduce the size from 10 to 6 and that the remainder of these conditions will be left as is. Is that correct? Commissioner Newberg? NEWBERG: That is correct, thank you for clarifying. VITOUSEK: Okay, discussion? VAN PERNIS: Raising his hand. VITOUSEK: Commissioner Van Pernis? VAN PERNIS: First of all, I'd like to point out that the pressure at Kaiminani and the pressure on Mamalahoa would be alleviated by the bypass road which was fortunately built decades ago by a major Palamanui developer. We could use recently unanimously voted to further defer it shows all these applications and all these things that are in related in terms of traffic we can't look at one without the other. I think since the applicant here has agreed to all access being on Leimomi and considering the pressure on Mamalahoa I think it's safer and better as the applicant looks like she's agreed to limit access to Leimomi which is an improved street now going to the property. She can instruct her guests as Mr. Newberg says but if its enforceable or if it is a necessity that the guest must comply with the suggestion or request I think it's appropriate to amend the motion to add the requirement that all access be through Leimomi Street. DEFRANCO: Raising her hand. VITOUSEK: Commissioner DeFranco? DEFRANCO: Actually, I disagree with that. I think as an applicant I would keep them both open and instruct your clients or your people to go through Leimomi and I would like to say that because there was some testimony in a letter from somebody in that area concerned that all of the traffic would be on Leimomi and asking the exact opposite. So, that is sort of in reference to looking sort at the overall picture and down the road a bit. I think it would be fine to leave it both ways and instruct with the understanding that you would instruct people and I think it is even a safer idea to have both accesses available. VAN PERNIS: Raising his hand. VITOUSEK: Commissioner Van Pernis? VAN PERNIS: This is my district. I drive up and down Mamalahoa all the time during rush hour and other times and I would disagree that it's safer for a left-hand turn under this driveway is better than going on Leimomi Street. It's not safer in any effect and I know that personally as the public has that drives on Mamalahoa and since the applicant has agreed to that I don't see why it can't be part of the motion. Thank you. DEFRANCO: Raised her hand. 17 EXHIBIT C
