LOPEZ: Oh yeah! I mean, I don't like the map. That's an ugly map. But, trying to satisfy <br /> the powers that be. <br /> HUSTACE: Chair, question. <br /> KOSSOW: Go ahead, Mr. Hustace. <br /> HUSTACE: This is a question for Mr. Lopez and you, Chair. In a case like this, with this <br /> large census block that touches down on its mauka portionI'm sorry, makai portion in <br /> the Business District, and then more residential up on the mauka area, is this a census <br /> block that would be worth adding to our irregular block list for submission to State <br /> Elections and Census Bureau? <br /> KOSSOW: Yeah, I think so. Mostly because one portion of it is like all business, and the <br /> other portion is all homes. <br /> HUSTACE: Okay, thank you. <br /> LOPEZ: In looking at that map, I don't—Can you zoom in? Because I don't see any <br /> streets inside there, like subdivisions, homes. I see the number. There they are, up at the <br /> north end. So, there's where our population is. So, there's a lot of just empty land <br /> between that and where the Business District zone comes in. So, to answer your question, <br /> Mr. Hustace, yes, I agree. This is ugly. <br /> KOSSOW: I wonder if taking the bottom portion of Ane Keohokalole Highway, where <br /> that one hundred and sixty-one (16 1) is, would make it just clean it up a little bit. But <br /> then we get into sort of a deviation issue. <br /> LOPEZ: Well, certainly. I just submitted it for consideration. You want to play with it, <br /> great. My concern is maintaining the urban core around Kailua-Kona, instead of making <br /> it a bedroom community. <br /> KOSSOW: Thank you, Mr. Lopez. Is there any other questions for Mr. Lopez's map <br /> here? (No response.) <br /> LOPEZ: I yield. <br /> KOSSOW: Okay. If we can go over to Brenda Ford's map. I know that there was some <br /> public testimony. Actually, maybe, I guess I forgot. I should ask the Commission whether <br /> or not they would like to proceed. `Cause these are the only two maps that were <br /> introduced from this past week. So, we can look at some other maps or we can go back to <br /> the regular working draft and start making some moves there. So, I would open that up <br /> for discussion. And I'm good with whatever the Commission wants to do. Mr. Lopez. <br /> LOPEZ: Personally, I'd like to work on developing the final map, and not revisit history <br /> over and over and over. There's some good data in there, and we may draw from that in <br /> 14 <br />
