BLECK:ItÓs a, well, itÓs a hydraulic-driven track layer device that literally <br />chisels out the rock. <br />ROY:I will share with all present that it has been the testimony of people <br />in our community that when development has come to the area of K <br />area, that existing stonewalls have fallen. Walls that have been there for hundreds of <br />years have fallen because of the extent of shaking and disruption of machines crushing <br />the land. Therefore, that is an important question. And, so may I ask, in the back of your <br />area, do you also plan to dig there to create basements? How would basements be made? <br />BLECK:WeÓre going to bring in fill material to fill around the base of the <br />building, so we will not be digging down in the rear of the property. <br />ROY:So theyÓre really three-stories high, correct? <br />BLECK:From existing grade; but, technically speaking, they are two-story <br />with a basement. <br />ROY:So would you agree that they are really three-story buildings? <br />VITOUSEK:Now that question has been asked and answered. <br />BLECK:Not according to the Uniform Building Code. <br />ROY:I donÓt understand your perception of your answer, sir. <br />Chairman Giffin? <br />GIFFIN:Mikahala, yes, and I acknowledge your dilemma. Mr. Bleck, I <br />would like you to clarify for the lay people here, myself included, whether or not it would <br />be technically three stories high, which is what I think youÓre <br />ROY:Correct. <br />GIFFIN:Or if there will be some, for want of a better word, digging to <br />create the basement floor. Right? <br />ROY:Correct. <br />GIFFIN:Mr. Bleck? <br />BLECK:ThereÓs no digging to create the basement floor. <br />GIFFIN:Okay. <br />ROY:And the former part of her question, is it a three-story building? <br />19 <br /> <br />
