YUEN:Well, the first sentence is a general statement of whats allowed. It just describes the general nature of the use; and then Condition 3 is a limitation to the fruit stand being Ag products grown on-island; and then the retail concession, which is a separate, they look at it as a separate part of the property with a little structure where they have a retail concession. And that would have, you could also sell Ag products there but all grown on-island, but also Ag products processed on-island. GRAHAM:Thank you. Im sorry, I wasnt reading it correctly, so -.

So, okay, so one is saying the tour busses are not allowed on the property, and the other is saying you cannot stop across the street or out on the shoulder and have those people walk in? DARROW:I think the other implication was that in the application the applicant had revised the application from when it was first submitted. In the original application they had made reference to having tours on the property; and it appeared that that portion, a portion of that 4EXHIBIT C
