SIRACUSA:No, 1:30. ALAMEDA:Oh, 1:30. So, and also Commissioner Graham and 3:00ish, so Im fixing to just go ahead and push it through and suspend lunch. So if you guys dont mind, if there isnt any objections, Id like to do that. Also, Id like to just thank you for addressing me first prior to speaking. I was told it makes really good for the transcribing, for the minutes. Sometimes they dont know whos talking. So when I say Commissioner Graham or Commissioner Siracusa, it gives them a little break in the transcribing. So Sharon is happy with that. All right. Well, that brings us to a discussion. Any thoughts? Or would somebody would like to make a motion and then discussion -? SALAVEA:Mr. Chairman? ALAMEDA:Go ahead, Commissioner Salavea. SALAVEA:I move that we enter into the discussion mode regarding this issue, or this application ALAMEDA:Okay. Sure. Okay, Commissioner Graham, a little discussion? Theres no motion made yet so were still in the discussion phase. Commissioner Graham? GRAHAM:I might say that my general feeling is Im generally supportive of what theyre doing. But Im concerned about a number of things. And probably the biggest concern is the timing concern of doing this before the General Plan comes about. And, I dont know, I wish that, you know, some of the Commissioners like Commissioner Springer we havent heard from before if she had any comments on how she felt about processing a zoning code change which is contingent upon a later General Plan that would make it fit. It seems worrisome to me. We often process things together like, maybe in our Ouli applications down in South Kohala where well have a State Land Use Amendment and Zoning Code at the same time. But they have a cart before the horse in this situation and its worrisome to me. So I invite other comments. ALAMEDA:Thank you. Okay. Commissioner Springer, I heard your name, Would you like to comment on that? SPRINGER:I concur with what Commissioner Graham said. I too am in general favor with the application. I do have some concerns about the timing of it. But aside from those concerns Im not disinclined from voting in favor of it. ALAMEDA:Thank you. And, again, this is a recommendation that were making to the County Council, so theyll have the final say on this. But I suppose they do take our vote into the matter. Commissioner Siracusa, any thoughts? 30EXHIBIT C
