WONG: Do you have a question for Ms. Nakatani, Mr. Henderson? A follow up? <br />HENDERSON: I do. <br />WONG: Okay. Go ahead. <br /> <br />HENDERSON: Ms. Nakatani, if a property had a detached carport/garage that had laundry <br />facilities located in it and a half bath, and you could actually lay your head down in the garage, <br />are you charging two sewer user connections for that property? <br />NAKATANI: I don't think we would charge for a garage. <br />HENDERSON: But yet I could sleep in the garage. Is that not so? <br />NAKATANI: Correct, but it's a little bit more than just laying your head. I mean, in this situation, <br />a garage – <br /> <br />HENDERSON: You could just lay your head down. That would be good. Just have a roof and <br />some walls. <br /> <br />NAKATANI: Correct. That's part of it. Yes, but also a garage would be designated, right? I mean, <br />you would – <br /> <br />HENDERSON: No further questions, Ms. Chair. <br /> <br />ADAMS: Okay. Anything again from Ms. Kekai? <br /> <br />KEKAI: I think Commissioner Gaffney has a question. <br /> <br />ADAMS: I see your hand. Rick Gaffney has a question. <br /> <br />GAFFNEY: Yes. I'd like to ask Ms. Nakatani, in your experience working for the Department, how <br />common was it for a single-family residence to be charged more than one sewer fee? <br /> <br />NAKATANI: Further back when they permitted ‘ohana housing it was pretty common, where <br />you would have two separate units or dwellings charged sewer fees. So I'm not sure what it is <br />now, but it is common. <br /> <br />GAFFNEY: Thank you. <br /> <br />ADAMS: Any other questions from the commissioners? Are we ready to move to your next <br />witness, Ms. Kekai? <br /> <br />23 <br /> <br /> <br />
