DOMINGO: Ms. Nomura -. <br />NOMURA: Yes. <br />DOMINGO: Since it’s older residential area, there are other residents within that total <br />general area that have similar concerns as you do? <br />NOMURA: I asked people and I’ve gotten replies, but some people are not willing to <br />come forward. You know, like I said, the old style is they leave it up to their leaders to make the <br />right decision for their community. Now there are probably pros and cons because I’ve heard <br />somebody say that they fully support it because they want the cell signals and everything in that <br />area. You know, I’m all for that. But can’t they find some place that’s not in a residential area <br />to begin with? Like down the street he pointed out on the map they’re developing the 7-Eleven, <br />The Fire Place, there’s a big sign that says Makai Development down there. So I’m assuming <br />that area is going to be commercially developed somehow. Can’t they go there? Or can’t they <br />go further up away from the residences? You know, there’s lots of vacant land, pasture land, or <br />whatever, you know. Why does it have to be right next door to where we’re living? You know, <br />there’s lots of other options or alternatives that they can consider, okay. And that’s all I’m <br />asking. <br />DOMINGO: Your -? <br />WATANABE: Follow-up? I’m sorry. <br />DOMINGO: Okay, just a short while. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. So essentially you’re <br />against it because -? <br />NOMURA: It’s in a residential area. <br />DOMINGO: It’s a residential area? <br />NOMURA: Yeah. <br />DOMINGO: And that the size of it and the height -? <br />NOMURA: It’s 150-foot tall. I’m going to see it from my, you know, my bedroom <br />window, like I see the church everyday from my window, whatever. But the thing is, the basic <br />thing is that place is zoned residential so it should be kept residential. I mean this is what, you <br />know, the Zoning Code said. And to ask for an exception to it, why ask for an exception, you <br />know, when it was basically residential? There are other areas that you can move to. <br />DOMINGO: Okay. Mr. Chairman, as a follow-up -. <br />WATANABE: Yes. <br />DOMINGO: To the statement she just made, may I ask the staff a question? <br />WATANABE: Sure. <br /> 7 EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
