hollow tile going up a few feet high and then going up higher as you, depending on the topography of the land, and on that is made wooden slats of some sort with the wind being able to pass through, but certainly not animals, and hopefully it would create a barrier for carbon dioxide going through as they indicated. You know, that’s what I’m looking at. SONG: Mr. Domingo, if they wanted a fence my clients could put up a fence. I think some of the complaints, and some of these complaints are mixed up because it has gone over a series of years. This lot was previously, until about a year and a half ago this lot was not fenced. It was open. And primarily it was not used by employees. It was really used by HCC; and it was either used by the jail guards or people coming to visit. In fact, there was a letter in the file where Ms. Reis complained because she found dirty diapers. This is all before the building tried to fence it off and control the area. And so when it was just a vacant lot, I mean, I hate to say it but people going to HCC are not always the nicest people; and that’s across the street. And if it’s going to be open and vacant, they’re going to, you know, they’re going to use it, or do whatever. So merely by the fact that it’s fenced off now has stopped that problem. As far as animals jumping a fence and getting into other people’s property, well, if they’re jumping a fence I don’t what can be done about that. But, again, my clients are willing to do what’s necessary to keep that parking lot from access to the neighbors, to protect the neighbors from dogs, or people, or whatever. GRAHAM: Okay. Commissioner Watanabe? WATANABE: Yeah, I have a question for the Director; and I’m referring to this comment letter dated February 27, 2007 from Public Works. And they had indicated, you know, at that time they weren’t sure whether entry would be from Punahele Street or not and they had indicated that, you know, they should provide for road widening, future road widening because it’s a 40-foot roadway currently. And I’m wondering if we already have the right-of-way to do the widening. I’m not suggesting that we should do the widening now cause you’ve eliminated access from Punahele. But I’m just hoping that we already do have the right-of-way or if we don’t that we would be able to obtain it at no cost to the County should the County then in the future decide they want to do a road widening there. We already have that. I believe it’s not going to affect their parking lot because it’d probably be, the road widening would probably be in any required setbacks or what not, you know. GRAHAM: That’s a question for Mr. Yuen? WATANABE: Yes. YUEN: We didn’t include the improvements to Punahele Street because of the limited nature of the project and the fact that there wasn’t going to be any access to it. We could have a road widening setback condition put in, and that would be a normal condition in the rezoning. Jeff, was there a reason why we didn’t have a road widening setback? DARROW: Just because of the fact that there hasn’t been any other setbacks on that stretch. YUEN: So that this would be the only one. EXHIBIT C 17
