WATANABE: Okay, would the Planning Commission now return to order. I realize we had only a short time to look at this. Again, you know, I want to reiterate that I’m not trying to railroad anything. I’m just trying to get away from the procedures part arguments and go on to something towards more like mediation. And I’m also trying to establish for the record where the Commission or the majority of the Commission is coming from and whether the applicant’s representative is agreeable to some of the revisions to the conditions. With that, maybe we can begin with Agenda Item No. 5, which is applicant’s request for extension of time, Kohala LLC, REZ 866. Jeff, do you want to summarize? I don’t know if we need to but -. DARROW: We did them earlier; it was -. WATANABE: Oh, you did on this. Okay, okay. Okay, Mr. Lim, as we stated earlier, you know, it’s agreed that the applicant has an opportunity to extend the time. So it’s up to you whether you would like to extend the time so that we can discuss this in conjunction with the th March 20 meeting or -. But all the same for reasons I stated earlier, I would hope that the record would reflect some of the feelings here, and maybe some of the other Commissioners might also chime in. This is just one person’s view. You care to comment on how we should proceed with this? LIM: I’ve had a chance to review the submittal by Commissioner Watanabe just now, and I understand pretty much where he’s going. There are some things in here that I haven’t discussed with my clients so I really don’t have the ability to agree to -. Some of them I have so I can agree to some of those; but some I haven’t because, you know, I haven’t seen this before today. The practical problem for us is I would like to accommodate the Commission but I also want to have our request for a time extension go up to the County Council at the same time that the Director’s does, and so, you know, again, that’s why I’m asking you. Maybe it doesn’t have to go up in March with the other SMA hearings, but I would like to have the ability to get some authority from my client on these points that you’ve raised and then come back at maybe the next meeting with the Director’s consent to then take action on Item No. 5 and send 4 and 5 up. WATANABE: Mr. Director, timing wise, cause you’ve been pretty firm on the drop date th as January 11. And timing wise as far as this, Item No. 4 going up to the Council, when does that go up to the Council? YUEN: It goes up, I mean we don’t stall these things after -. WATANABE: Yeah, yeah. YUEN: You know, the actions that are taken by the Commission, they get typed up and they get, you know, whatever timeframe that takes and they get sent to Council, and then it’s really up to Council to agendize the items.
