WATANABE: Okay, thank you. Hang on to the mike. Do we have any questions of <br />Erik, Fellow Commissioners? <br />OGATA: I’ve got a question. <br />WATANABE: Yes, Shelly. <br />OGATA: Usually in the application we usually get a list of all the people that were <br />contacted, or sent letters, or notified, or whatever. And I may have missed it but I didn’t see it. <br />Is there -? <br />WATANABE: Mr. Hayashi? Maybe it just wasn’t included with our material but I <br />assume that they did meet the notice requirement. <br />HAYASHI: I’m to blame for that. I indicated to the rest of the staff that perhaps we <br />should leave out the surrounding property owners’ notice from the list. I know that was a big <br />issue in one of our applications by us providing that list to you, and people were going through <br />the list and, you know, naming these people and -. <br />WATANABE: Yeah. <br />HAYASHI: But it’s available for -. If you have questions specifically to the list and <br />who’s on the list, we can circulate the office copy, file copy, to you. <br />WATANABE: Okay. So I think the main question about the notification has been <br />satisfied. Yeah? So do we have any further questions? Okay, then Erik you may pass on the <br />mike. You may be seated also, yeah. Oh, no, I think you were Malia, yeah? <br />STRONG: I’m Sarah. <br />WATANABE: No, Sarah? <br />STRONG: Yes. <br />WATANABE: Oh, okay, okay. Name and address please. <br />STRONG: I’m Sarah Strong, PO Box 493723 in Keaau. I do live in Pahoa though. I <br />am a naturopathic physician and certified primary care physician in Hawaii. My husband and I <br />did move over from Oahu to the Big Island because I wanted to be in an area where health care <br />was really needed. We have been over here for about a year and a half; and at this point have <br />still not found a suitable place to have an office. I focus on preventive medicine but do provide <br />primary care. I also work with a chiropractor and acupuncturist that you’ll be hearing from. We <br />were very excited to find out about this location because every other space we have looked at in <br />the Pahoa and Keaau area does not have the ability to have wheelchair access. And if it does, the <br />parking is, you know, a quarter mile away so anyone in a wheelchair would have a difficult time <br />00 <br />EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
