KUBOTA:Right. <br />ARAI:So whether they go from an independent living to a regular <br />condominium unit, theyÓre not changing the basic reasons. ItÓs still Multiple Family <br />Residential. <br />KUBOTA:Oh, I see. <br />ARAI:Again, this is a change of zone -. You know, if you really wanted <br />to -. No, never mind, I wonÓt go there. <br />KUBOTA:Yeah, okay, okay. You see, in mind, theyÓre going to do <br />care, not extended care, senior retirement home. So, I have to erase that from my mind. <br />Okay. <br />ARAI:You know, in order to keep it straight in my mind, I put it <br />perspective: If they wanted to do only an independent living residential community and <br />they did not want any further option, they could have applied for a Special Permit. ItÓs <br />Ag-zoned now, Ag-designated plan. But they want the option of doing this; but if it <br />doesnÓt work out, then theyÓll go with the regular condominium-type of development. <br />So -. <br />KUBOTA:Yeah, okay, which is perfectly legitimate. Okay. All ri <br />GALDONES:Any other questions of Daryn? Commissioner Togashi? <br />TOGASHI:Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I wanted to ask you about your <br />Condition K on the pedestrian walkways and bikeways. And, so, this would be <br />maintained at the expense of the Applicant? <br />ARAI:Oh, absolutely. <br />TOGASHI:What theyÓre going to do is construct it up to The Pines, then. And <br />what happens, The Pines, theyÓre not going to touch, theyÓre not going to propose any or <br />put any bikeways or walkways in the other subdivision, right? ItÓs only up to and leading <br />to The Pines border, yeah? <br />ARAI:Exactly. ItÓs just to provide this connection so, should people <br />desire to drive or, how do I say, ride in that direction toward The Pines. The reason being <br />is that there is an existing road that deadends along the northern boundary of the project <br />site. IÓm sorry, itÓs not shown here. But itÓs simply to provide the connection to that <br />public road, and they can then ride out toward Nani Kailua Drive. <br />YUEN:If I could add to that. ThereÓs a Commercial zoned area in The <br />Pines within a walking distance of this community; and if you have a walking <br />connection, then people, retired persons in this community could walk to the other <br />10 <br /> <br />
