theschool. So, as far as like that area between the next application and this current applicant- the <br />vacant area- the Trust has not received, as I understand, any formal request from the school itself <br />totake down or utilize that area for- a formal take down of the balance of the property, unlike <br />they have made a request for the formal take down of that area that€s going to be considered and <br />the subsequent application. <br />GRAHAM:And although the Trust is making an application for use on part of this <br />property, they will not be making applications for further uses on the property, it would go to the <br />school or somebody like that. <br />FUKE:At this point in time there are no plans and so- this application, the Trust <br />Corporation€s application is designed to help generate operational funds for the Trust, and in turn <br />be able to further support the objectives of the Trust. You know, one of which is the- is the <br />community ed, but in addition to that providing direct or indirect support to the school- the <br />ParkerSchool. <br />GRAHAM:Thankyou. <br />FUKE:WithrespecttotheAdultEducation-excusemethe-. <br />GIFFIN:Community? <br />FUKE:No-no- the pre school. Actually when I was engaged to assist on this <br />project it was in through my discussion with one of the Board mem- one of the Trust members <br />that if this is condition of the Trust Corporation is to have like an overall educational facility <br />that- that would be separate and apart from the Parker School. That since they€re addressing <br />adult education, perhaps they could also address the preschool or the- the preschool component; <br />and that€s why it was added- added in, because in the back of this existing warehouse there€s a <br />lot of nice lawn area, there€s an existing single-family dwelling that would be very suitable for- <br />perhaps like the office space for a preschool. However like- during the course of having this <br />application been reviewed not only by the community but by surrounding property owners, there <br />were concerns relative to the- the preschool component. And so if it comes to pass-, then this is <br />one component that- as the staff had indicated- that you know- this would be one component that <br />the applicant would be willing to dissect from the primary application. <br />GALDONES:Commissioner Alameda. <br />ALAMEDA:I€m just curious. What were the concerns about the preschool aspect? <br />FUKE:Well, there were two, like one concern came from a surrounding property <br />owner which is actually on the- there€s a stream that bisects the property from Kapiolani Road. <br />It€s actually from the Keck Observatory area and apparently like they do have some employees <br />that sleep during the day so they were saying that, well, you have kids running around and <br />making noise and all that stuff could provide some measure of disruption so, you know, there <br />was that kind of concern. The other one was that by having a preschool over there would <br />possibly interfere or conflict with the normal commute time traffic. And whereas like the adult <br />education facility would, you know, usually come at a different time. <br />5 <br /> <br />
