ALAMEDA:Is that a question to somebody? <br />SIRACUSA:Is there a reason why that has been -? <br />ALAMEDA:Okay, Mr. Hayashi? <br />SIRACUSA:Not included? <br />HAYASHI:Yeah, I can respond to that. As far as imposing hours of operation, we€ve <br />done that for special permits; but we€ve never done that for any kind of change of zone requests, <br />to my knowledge. <br />SIRACUSA:Is there a reason for that, Norman, I mean, a legal reason, or is it just, we <br />haven€t done it? <br />HAYASHI:Well, basically what we€re looking at is what the zoning should be for this <br />particularproperty.Andtheymayhaveotheroperationsthatcouldgoonthepropertythatmay <br />not be, it would have lesser impacts. So in that case I guess that€s the reason why we decided not <br />to put any kind of hours of operation. From a legal standpoint, you, I don€t know whether we <br />can do that for a change of zone application. That question could be perhaps better directed to <br />legal counsel. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay, Mr. Torigoe, you have any thoughts on that? Good question, huh? <br />TORIGOE:I€m not really prepared to give you a definitive opinion on that. I think I€d <br />have to do some research on it. <br />ALAMEDA:All right. Commissioner Siracusa, follow-up? <br />SIRACUSA:Yeah. I have a concern that we€ve got all of these residences around the <br />property. No matter what the zoning is, there are residences and people live there, and they have <br />to get a good night€s sleep so they can go to work the next day or school the next day with their <br />kids. And I€m concerned about, you know, this complaint about noise at night which would be <br />increased during the holidays when they€re in increased production. And the fact that we haven€t <br />even put a, any kind of a limit on decibel levels, or hours, or anything like that does cause me <br />considerable concern. Because one of the things we€re supposed to take into consideration as <br />criteria are impacts on neighboring properties. <br />ALAMEDA:Very good. Thank you. Point well taken, Commissioner Siracusa. And <br />I€m sure we€ll include that in our discussion. I wanted to go to Commissioner Salavea and then <br />Commissioner Iwashita. <br />SALAVEA:Two questions, points of clarification, Norman. The first is, it€s the <br />understanding of the Planning Department that the existing roadways on Kekuanaoa Street will <br />not be used once the landscaping and the open area is developed or these, both of these new sites <br />are developed? Is that true? <br />8EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
