with the allowance of tour busses onto the property the applicants would be required to do extensive improvements onto the highway, which would definitely probably be a deal-breaker for this. They wouldnt be able to do these types of improvements. It would be too costly. So rather than requiring the improvements we were just going to not allow the tours and the tour busses on the property. ALAMEDA:I see that. Thank you for explaining. Any other questions for our staff? Commissioner Graham. GRAHAM:Jeff, I just want to verify in your Condition 3 about what the sale is limited to. Am I correct that this is scaled back a good bit from what the applicant was hoping to sell on the property? DARROW:It appears, this was a condition added by the Planning Director and its specificthatthefruitstandshallbelimitedtotheagriculturalproductsgrownonisland.Idont know if there were going to be any off-island items. So it doesnt look like its going to limit the applicants from what they previously had proposed, although it is going to keep them restricted to items grown and produced on the island. GRAHAM:So, I guess, Im wondering in the application it seems like there was a bunch of additional things as well, like, you know, prepared meals or something like that. Is that still allowed or is this saying none of thats allowed except for the fruit and agricultural products? YUEN:It says limited to the sale of agricultural products grown on-island and the retail concession shall be limited to food products processed on-island and agricultural products grown on-island only. And thats to keep this from being a general grocery store or a general produce store. Because otherwise you could bring in watermelons from Molokai, cabbages from Honolulu, and sell them. This is meant, they need a special permit to sell more than the -. If they want to sell stuff thats only grown on their property they dont need a special permit. Thats allowed under the State Land Use Law. They wanted to sell other agricultural products; and the representation was on-island. If you want to sell agricultural products from everywhere then what you have is a grocery store or a produce market; and we wouldnt support it. Its a little different than a roadside stand concept. And then the sale of processed products, that would be processed on-island. You could make pies with flour and things that are grown off-island, but it would have to be a pie that was baked on-island, for example. GRAHAM:Thats what I kind of understood. And the reason I came up with my questions I think was when I read Condition 3 it says The fruit stand, and then it goes on describing the fruit stand. But when we look at the very first page for the permit, the request is to establish a fruit stand and retail concession. So are we limiting the fruit stand but not the retail concession, or is that Condition 3 sort of meant to apply to the whole thing? This is my question. Do you hear what Im trying to say? ALAMEDA:Mr. Director. 3EXHIBIT C
