SONG: I don’t have the number, Mr. Iwashita. But a multi-level parking structure <br />is extremely expensive. <br />IWASHITA: So it sounds like it was a passing thought but no real inquiry, or drawings <br />or anything was done to try and cost it out? <br />SONG: Mr. Iwashita, my clients felt this would be the least offensive manner of <br />obtaining some more parking for the employees. <br />IWASHITA: What alternatives if any did the applicant look at in terms of other possible <br />off-site parking alternatives for employees? <br />SONG: The parking in that, there is none available.
