DOMINGO: Mr. Chairman, I think perhaps to clarify the whole matter, could we have <br />a re-explanation of what they’re recommending with this application because, you know, we’ve <br />had some strong concerns -. <br />WATANABE: Okay. <br />DOMINGO: Expressed with regards to a commercial kitchen; and that is permitted <br />under a special permit, you see, not under commercial zoning. So I think we need to have that <br />made clear, because I don’t think we all understand what’s being proposed. <br />WATANABE: Okay. But we also, okay, we have four more people to testify. I think <br />after we get through the testimony, we should probably break for lunch. And when we <br />reconvene we’ll be able to then during deliberation talk about what it is exactly; and during <br />lunch, although we may not because of the Sunshine Law deliberate, we certainly could <br />individually look at the Puna Community Development Plan and, you know, make our own <br />decisions about how this fits into that Plan, etc. Cause I’m sure none of you refreshed your <br />memories prior to this agenda item coming up on the Puna Community Development Plan. <br />Yeah? And it gives us a game plan, I think. Yeah? <br />DOMINGO: Yeah, thank you. <br />WATANABE: And, certainly, we’ll address your issues. I think other people have issues, <br />other Commissioners have issues, also, yeah, that they might want to address. <br />DOMINGO: Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for that suggestion. I only mentioned <br />that because there might be other speakers who come up who may think that some of the uses <br />may not be applicable in the special permit process, but actually may be acquired through a <br />special, may be permitted under a special permit. But there are some uses which definitely are <br />not permitted under that. And I think with that knowledge it’d be much easier for the people to <br />understand, you know, what we’re really looking at. <br />WATANABE: Okay, thank you. So do we have any questions for Mr. Justice though? <br />Doesn’t look like it. Okay, I’ve got four more people, yeah, to testify -- Cat Wingate, Rob <br />Rostau, Madie Greene and Keaka Nelson, I believe. That’s right? <br />NELSON: Yeah. <br />WATANABE: Will the four of you come up, please. <br />ALAMEDA: Three minutes. <br />WATANABE: Okay, three minutes, now, yeah. So raise your right hand, please. Do you <br />swear or affirm to tell the truth now before the Planning Commission? <br />TESTIFIERS: I do. <br />12 <br />EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
