WATANABE: Are there any questions for Barbara Scott? Seeing none, thank you. You <br />may be seated. <br />SCOTT: Thank you. I’m going to work now. <br />WATANABE: Sorry it took so long. I still have 16 testifiers signed up, and I believe <br />within the audience we have a number of people here in attendance that will be further on in the <br />agenda. I’m hoping that we can finish up with the testimony before we break for lunch. But I <br />would suggest to those who are, like No. 3 and further on the agenda that, you know, maybe you <br />plan on having your meeting with us after lunch. Seeing as we have as many testifiers as we do, <br />I’d like to take a five-minute break because I believe one of our Commissioners already kind of <br />walked off and took a break. Probably it’s time for some others. So with that, we’ll stand in <br />recess for five minutes. <br />RECESSED The Chair called a recess at 11:30 a.m. <br />RECONVENED The meeting reconvened at 11:45 a.m. <br />WATANABE: Okay, will the Planning Commission please come back to order. Before <br />we begin calling up further contestants, I’d like to remind you that we have, I mean not <br />contestants, but testifiers. I’d like to remind you that we have 17 more people who’d like to <br />testify. So I would appreciate it if you’d be concise. Try and stick to the three minutes. We will <br />break for lunch at 12:30 whether we get through this or not; and we’ll reconvene at 1:30. <br />Hopefully we can get through all the testimony before 12:30. So with that, let me begin by <br />calling up, I guess I can call up four people. Let’s see, Karen Huff, John Harris, Harold Murata <br />and Carol Kitaoka. Okay. Would you all raise your right hand please, so I can swear you in. Do <br />you swear or affirm to tell the truth now before the Hawaii Planning Commission? <br />TESTIFERS: I do. <br />WATANABE: Thank you. I guess we can start I believe on my right. That would be Mr. <br />Murata. Is that correct? <br />MURATA: Yes. <br />WATANABE: Yes. Would you please state your name and address for the record before <br />you begin your testimony. <br />MURATA: My name is -. <br />WATANABE: Would you please use the microphone. We’re recording this so it’s <br />difficult for the secretary to -. <br />MURATA: Sure. Good morning, Commission Members. My name is Harold Murata. <br />My address is Post Office Box 1752, Kealakekua, Kona, Hawaii 96750. <br />WATANABE: Thank you. You may begin with your testimony. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />28 <br /> <br />
