VITOUSEK: Go ahead. Go ahead. We've spent three minutes talking about it. Go ahead. <br /> MCINNIS: My name is Mac McInnis regarding Kona Orchard Subdivision here in Kona. I'm <br /> here in opposition to the landowner's application. The property owner-- <br /> DEFRANCO: I don't mean to interrupt, but this is, we're not going to vote on that permit. <br /> We're looking at the petition for standing. <br /> MCINNINS: Right. Okay. <br /> DEFRANCO: So, are you going to speak about that? <br /> VITOUSEK: Let's just have him have his three minutes to speak and we'll proceed. <br /> DEFRANCO: Okay. <br /> VITOUSEK: Go ahead. Thank you. <br /> MCINNIS: I've got two issues. I can walk out on my lanai like about 1,000 other people in that <br /> area and look right down on this property and you saw the photos that Carol Fuller had and the <br /> dust coming up, and the abuse that's been going on. And that's why the five communities of <br /> Hualalai Associates got together and filed suit over this because nothing was happening. And my <br /> two issues are what Bolton has been saying he's actually doing or has been doing when he's not <br /> doing it, and then his representations with regards to the floodway channel. <br /> Is it okay if I continue? <br /> VITOUSEK: Yes, please go ahead. Yeah, yeah. <br /> MCINNIS: Okay. The property owner under the guise of permits that are not occasion but in an <br /> impending development, that means getting ready to happen and making representations that he <br /> is doing floodway channelization work has actually been operating a commercial rock crushing <br /> operation. <br /> For six plus years on the land in question, he has been importing rock, crushing it, and <br /> excavating rock on the land in question, hauling it off of his property. Hawaii Revised Statutes <br /> and the County Zoning Code provide no allowable uses as for stand-alone uses. I'll skip part of <br /> what I was going to say and get to the floodway channelization. <br /> Bolton owns several of his permits, and I know you're not hearing permits, but he said he was <br /> doing floodway channelization work. And he had been in touch with FEMA. Here is a letter <br /> from FEMA addressed to Billy Kenoi, and the date on it is December 21, 2009. I picked up the <br /> telephone and I called Washington DC and talked to the FEMA office. I talked to two young <br /> ladies there and I gave them the case number and the letter, and I said have you all received any <br /> data, anything from anybody in the private sector or the government sector from Kona, Hawaii, <br /> 3 <br /> EXHIBIT G <br />
