Now as to the photographs on Exhibit C, and then Ill wrap up, getting close to lunch time, Photographs C-1, C-2, C-3 and C-4, what they tried to do yesterday, and this is yesterday, Melvin Miranda was out there with his daughter taking these pictures, they tried to replicate a photograph from the same angle as the Planning Department inspector from the Boys Scout Camp. And the way you tell that is by that pond in C-3. So if you do have a vehicle on top of that ridge line it is clearly noticed from as far away as from the Boys Scout Camp. You can see it. The only arguable thing, Ill be repeating myself, is that whether its actually an M. W. Miranda vehicle or if its a vehicle from a contractor thats doing work in there to make all these things happen; and it could go either way depending on the day youre looking at it and the weather conditions. C-5, C-6 and C-7, one of the Commissioners had expressed concern that why arent things done. Theres a good picture of why arent things done, because theyre on their way. The big building is on the way. One of the special conditions which was not anticipated but welcomed was that that300-footby100-footmaintenanceshedhadtohaveaconcretepad.Theearthquake,the question was when was the earthquake? We know when the earthquake was. That was October thth 15 when that pad was just about to be laid. The citation came on October 20. The wooden foundation that you see there that were in there, they were all cracked during the earthquake as of rd my letter of November 3. But theyre well along now because this is a recent picture as of yesterday. So theyve recovered from the earthquake. On C-7, you see that little yellow building there? When you go to the site plan and it says temporary storage or temporary office, thats the kind of building they have along the edge of the one acre. Okay? So what Im trying to do today is let you know that Miranda would have liked to be here today, kind of different priorities because of getting three doctors on the telephone and a conference at the same time in Kona, so he had to make some choices. And, quite frankly, I advised him that I would show up in his stead and he go take care of Eva and that we would ask the Council for their understanding; and in return for that understanding we would try to take care of any conditions that the, not the Council but the Commission may have. Thank you very much for your time. GRAHAM:Thank you, Mr. Rodrigues. Let me ask Mr. Torigoe a question here first. Generallywhentheapplicantscomeinandaskforcontinuanceswedontreallydealwiththe subject matter, the application, until the continued hearing. But we did have a request from the Planning Commissioners that maybe we could address some of what we might expect from the applicant or from the owner of the special permit for the next hearing. So, Mr. Torigoe, is there any procedural sense that you could give us as to what we should do now before, I presume were going to have a motion for a continuance, what is appropriate to do before that motion or -? You understand my concern? TORIGOE:Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Well, basically, I think its, you know, this is a little unusual because it is a revocation request from the Director. And so if the Commission feels like it needs to gather some more information about the status of things or what can be expected to be done or what, you know, more information that theyd like to have prior to the next hearing if this is continued, then that certainly would be appropriate to do. And certainly if the applicants representative is agreeable to any of that, then that can be done. GRAHAM:Okay, thank you. So I guess at this point, Mr. Rodrigues, the Commission will be taking a vote on the continuance at some time shortly. But if for the moment they can ask you what they might like to have you provide at the time when we continue -. 7EXHIBIT C
