is that the lower section doesnt do anything. Once youre through the Lindsey Road intersection <br />bottleneck in Waimea, you€ve made it; and theres no point in going out to Lalamilo and then <br />turning right and coming back down to the Kawaihae Road. So one of those two would have to <br />precede the other. So thats my thinking right now. My recommendation to the Commission is <br />well defer this and well take this up to in the summer after Parsons Brinckerhoff has given their <br />preliminary findings. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay. Commissioners, any questions for the Director? Yes, <br />Commissioner Graham. <br />GRAHAM:So, Chris, my understanding then is if we defer for now it means we dont <br />delete it from the General Plan but we keep it as an active item that we may choose to delete in <br />the summer or some other time. Is that correct? <br />YUEN:Thatsright. <br />GAHAM:Thankyou. <br />ALAMEDA:Anyotherquestions,FellowCommissioners,fortheDirectoronthat <br />particular item? I see Dr. Bergin would like to say something. In terms of protocol, I want to <br />ask Ivan if our testifiers can ask questions or are they just supposed to provide testimony and <br />thats it? <br />TORIGOE:Well, generally speaking, this is public testimony and they can -. I dont <br />know if theres a question that he wants to direct to the Planning Director or what. I mean, he <br />can do that off the record as far as talking to the Planning Director. <br />BERGIN:It was a very simple questions, question. And it would be to do with what <br />would be the finding of Parsons Brinckerhoff that would in fact impact the decision whether <br />delete or keep? <br />ALAMEDA:Okay, thats fair enough. Mr. Director? <br />YUEN:Parsons Brinckerhoff is looking at, these things are linked because theyre <br />in one General Plan. But Parsons Brinckerhoff is only looking at the Waimea side. My feeling <br />is that if Parsons, and they are looking at a number of the kinds of things that youre talking <br />about. My understanding, you know, is that this is what theyre supposed to do. Theyll look at <br />are there relatively small things that you can do at intersections, can you convert what is now say <br />a right-turn exclusive lane to a through lane, that kind of thing. But theyll also look at the basic <br />concept of their being a parallel road that swings around Waimea, whether its Kamamalu, or <br />Puu Kukui, Puiki, rather, out to either Kaumoloa or toward the race track. You know, theyll <br />look at that and theyll say is that a viable concept, or is that a necessary concept. If they <br />conclude that we need that, then Im going to definitely drop the part that deals with the Waimea <br />side of the connector. Im going to leave that in the General Plan. That would be my feeling on <br />that. <br />BERGIN:Thank you. <br />14EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
