DARROW: If I could refer you to Condition No. 3, it specifically refers to co-location. The Planning Department encourages that so that we don’t create new towers all over the island; instead we try to attach antennas to existing towers, which is considered co-location. And so we allow that, as far as, as long as they’re within the approved parameters of the permit, which means they don’t go higher than the existing height of the tower. So this is something we encourage. KA‘EHU‘AE‘A: You know, I don’t want to request to hold this up. But I want to see it go through, then we can talk story after. KERN: Any other questions? ISHIBASHI: Just a comment. KERN: Yes, Commissioner Ishibashi. ISHIBASHI: I just wanted to thank Wendell for a bang-up job. KA‘EHU‘AE‘A:Thank you. ISHIBASHI: I think this is very necessary. And I think Crown Castle is going to help us out, cause Ka‘u is needing this facility. So I think we’ll work together, get this thing passed, cause you provide a beneficial service to the community. KA‘EHU‘AE‘A:Thank you. ISHIBASHI: I just wanted to thank you for that. KA‘EHU‘AE‘A: I think we’ve got to thank all those people in Ka‘u, cause putting the station together was about hundred something people volunteering, manpower, construction company, and all that. So it was really good. KERN:Very good. DARROW: Mr. Chairman? KERN: Yes. DARROW: I’ve been requested by a representative from Crown Castle if he could appear and answer, maybe provide clarification. KERN: Very good. Yeah, thank you. Have a seat. DARROW: His name is Erick Schatz. KERN: All right, Mr. Schatz. If I can get you to raise your right hand and I’ll swear you in. Do you affirm to tell the truth today before the Windward Planning Commission? SCHATZ: I do. KERN: All right. Name and address, and you may begin. 9 EXHIBIT B
