and make a smaller Kamamalu so that you dont have heavy trafficgoing into the Hawaiian Home Lands there. So what Im saying is, you know, dont delete it, we really need it. In fact, we want it in two years. This is a specific mandate in there, there was a lot of work done to get that specific mandate. And its just, as the FEDEX man said, were raising our times, we need to get through Waimea every month now. Its getting worse. Ive put in this packet, just sort of showing this has been going on for so long. I yesterday bumped into someone in the copy business office, and his name was Pete LOrange. And he said we worked on this plan in the 1950s; and he said we worked, this was the number three road priority in the State or territory; and theres always some group that opposes it, and then everything caves. So what Im asking you is sort of leadership. There are issues. How do we work this? Right now Parker Ranch wants a lot of things. Can we negotiate that, Chris Yuen, kindofthingintothatplanandseethisroadthrough?TheParkerRancharea,theyrefighting having to put in any of the road which originally it was planned to be put in before there was any of this development; and then they got an incremental concurrency accommodation; and now that goes on and on. So I just want to try to ask for your help to try to promote working through these issues and not -. I included in here some of the development phases that are already planned to come in, thousands of new houses right in the immediate area that are going to impact on that. And I also wrote up a little blurb of what sort of just primarily as a public person, to promote this. And it just seems each time this road disappears, its not even on this transportation roadway map in your plan. It just seems like it just keeps disappearing. Now its going to disappear from the General Plan. So I ask for your help there. I did want to mention one other, Im going to switch to the other mike, just on the other provision of the plan implementation and the proposed deletion, and just make a comment. I totally understand that thats a great deal of work trying to be accountable, which is really what that provision is. You know, how are we going to be accountable under this General Plan, where have we made progress? I want to encourage addressing the Planning Departments need for additional manpower, or perhaps utilize the public and send out copies of the courses of action and get their feedback, but not to just remove what is sort of the public accountability provision in the policy. ALAMEDA:All right. WILLE:Thank you. Any questions, specific? Yes, Commissioner Graham. GRAHAM:I was going to go back to Dr. Bergins testimony to begin with. But were you also going to speak on the South Kohala issues? BERGIN:Just barely, and then Ill get off on a little tangent here. GRAHAM:All right. So maybe Ill go ahead with my question then. BERGIN:Sure. 9EXHIBIT C
