UPHAM:Unfortunately, because of the incomplete applications, as far as Im concerned, there are a lot of details that Icant prepare for if were going to have a case hearing on this. So as far as site plan, Ive been told that there was going to be a church, parking lot, parsonage, other things, I dont know what. I cant prepare for any kind of case hearing thing if I dont have these details; and this application I feel is incomplete. And I feel that Ill be put at a disadvantage if I have to prepare for a hearing where Im going to show up and theyre going to have details that I dont even know about. So how can that be addressed that I can be informed before and -. ALAMEDA:Okay, thats a great question, right on the mark. TORIGOE:Yeah, you may want to -. ALAMEDA:Mr. Torigoe? TORIGOE:Once the hearings officer is identified, then you may want to talk with the hearingsofficer,raisethoseconcerns,andseeifthatmightbesomethingthatyouallcanhavea conference about and discuss whether the application really has sufficient information and details for the hearings officer to hold the hearings. And it remains the applicants burden to provide sufficient information; and if the applicant for whatever reason fails to do that, then the hearings officer will have to take a look at that and may end up saying, well, you know, the applicant has just failed to carry his burden of providing sufficient information and proving that hes entitled to the permit. And the hearings officer may then refer it back to the Commission with a recommendation for denial on that basis, if the condition of the application is such that its not capable of being properly contested. ALAMEDA:Did you hear that, Mr. Ely? ELY:Yes, I understood, I understood. ALAMEDA:Okay. Thank you. Mr. Tui, you have any comments regarding, again, the standing request? FUIAVA:Yeah. Can the Chair allow me to say just a few things to help my mind. I know that Jeff brought up the church, the building is 40 by 90. I just want to keep in mind and inform you that the 90 is including the bathrooms in there and also the stage. Thats what is included inside that length of the church. Another thing, that I just want to apologize for the letters that went out. The two people that are property owners that we sent out late is because a different owner has bought that property. Thats what it was. And that was the reason why I was informed later on -. And I tried my best to send out the letters as soon as possible; and thats what it was. And according to, to respond to some of the things that, I believe back when we had a meeting, we went there to meet with the Association to try to work things out, resolve this. I know I mentioned it earlier about, I mean, Bob has brought it up about 300 members, the letters and stuffs. Its because we dont, in reality we dont have 300 members. But the 300 consists of the community, the community, were talking about the Samoan community itself within. Its not 16EXHIBIT B
