We have a <br />commercial property in Volcano, we have a general store and retail. And, as you know, things <br />are moving and it€s hard to find anything. And this house came across our path and it€s just, <br />there are several other, you know, it€s very close. It€s one street down from Big Island Candies. <br />You know, it€s a good location for Commercial. And what I propose to do is a quilt shop with <br />gift items and the atmosphere, and the ambiance of this property is very conducive to what I <br />want to do. <br />GRAHAM:So you just found this property fairly recently and it€s in the right kind of <br />location for what you want to use it for? <br />TRIPP:That€s correct, yes. <br />ALAMEDA:Commissioner Siracusa? <br />SIRACUSA:Yes. Were you aware that we had turned down Big Island Candies€ <br />application? <br />4EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
