General Plan are implemented, the applicants shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 11, Article 1, Hawaii County Code relating to Affordable Housing Policy. This requirement shall be approved by the Administrator of the Office of Housing and Community Development prior to Final Subdivision Approval. All homes on the RS-zoned property shall be sold at prices affordable to families earning not more than 120 % of the median income in Hawaii County. There shall be no ‘excess credits’ earned by the development on the RS-zoned property for sale or transfer offsite.” The Planning Director is recommending that the Planning Commission send a favorable recommendation to the Hawaii County Council for these two applications. Are there any questions? GRAHAM: Commissioners, do you have any questions for Jeff right now? All right. I know we have a representative from the Department of Water Supply. Mr. Antonio, would you care to come up at this point, and I know some of our testifiers are concerned about water issues; and just let us know how this project impacts water supply and how it will be handled according to your best understanding at the moment. DARROW: Mr. Chair? GRAHAM: Excuse me. Jeff? DARROW: If I could also, this was submitted shortly by the applicant and the applicant’s representative. These are letters of support that have been submitted as part of the record. There is only one copy so I’m just going to send them around for the Commission to take a look at. GRAHAM: Thank you, Jeff. Could you raise your hand and swear to tell the truth today? ANTONIO: Before you do that, Mr. Chairman, I’m here as a representative of the Department of Water Supply. The Manager of the Department of Water Supply is an Ex-officio Member of the Planning Commission as provided for by the Charter; and I’m representing our Manager at this point in time. Whether or not I’m required to swear under oath before I give testimony, I’m not sure whether or not that’s required. I would defer to our Corporation Counsel whether or not I have to do that. I’m here, again, representing the Ex-officio Member of the Planning Commission. GRAHAM: I see. Mr. Torigoe, do you have a comment? TORIGOE: Well, being an Ex-officio Member, you can take his commentary on that basis. I don’t know if Mr. Quirino has some objection to swearing him, I wouldn’t try to force him to do so. GRAHAM: Okay. So could you go ahead and just state your name and address for the record and then speak to this issue for us, please. ANTONIO: Sure. My name is Quirino Antonio. I’m Deputy Manager of the Department of Water Supply. I’m here representing, again, Mr. Milton Pavao who is our Manager of the Department of Water Supply. You need anything else before I proceed?
