C. NAHOOIKAIKA:I am. <br />SIRACUSA:Do you have any indication about when they plan to put in the new office? <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA:I can€t wait for them towrite something in blood, but they don€t. I <br />understand that there€s a, you know, we had a public meeting at Pahoa High School and the <br />representative that came from the Postal Service said that it could go into planning as early as <br />2007; but I couldn€t say for sure when that will really happen. <br />SIRACUSA:Yeah. At this point, the Pahoa Post Office, would you say that it is over- <br />exceeding its capacity? <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA:Yes, Ma€am. <br />SIRACUSA:Andhowabouttheparkinglot? <br />C.NAHOOIKAIKA:Yes,Ma€am. <br />SIRACUSA:Iagreewithyou.Itwouldcreatealotoftrafficonceit€soutinthenew <br />location because of the growing -. <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA: Yes, I figured that. <br />SIRACUSA:And so we have to consider not only the existing traffic now in that area <br />but how much additional traffic there would be once the post office is there, once the recreation <br />is there, once the police department is there, etc., and take that into consideration. <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA: Yes. <br />SIRACUSA:Do you have any thoughts on that matter you€d like to elaborate for us? <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA:I do. At the public meeting that we had with the US Postal Service <br />Representative from the Pacific area, that was one of my biggest things; and others expressed <br />about the parking situation and, you know, the accessibility going into the post office and leaving <br />it. I asked him who was going to look at this because I know that that area is very congested and <br />safety was paramount in my eyes. I saw how Malama had become so busy. I understand the <br />Postal Service purchased this property about 15 years ago and, you know, still they haven€t built; <br />and we definitely need a new postal facility. But I don€t know how the traffic patterns would be. <br />That was one of my questions to the representative from Facilities at the area. <br />SIRACUSA:Could you give us a sort of a, just a stab in the dark as to how many cars <br />pull into the current post office in a day, just so we can get a feeling for amount of traffic? I <br />mean the storage facility is talking about 20 cars in a day. Let€s look at cumulative impacts is <br />why I€m asking you. <br />C. NAHOOIKAIKA: Probably, I mean, just a stab in the dark, we have 17 marked stalls. There <br />are periods in the day that they are all full, other times not so. Easily, I would think, no less than <br />17EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
