HOUSEL: No, actually, I donÓt think I questioned the left-turn lane so much; thatÓs readily apparent in here. IÓm concerned about the ongoing traffic on Huallai Road right now as a result of the new developments that have been built along that Huallai Road since 2001. WITCHER: It has not increased that much. HOUSEL: Do you know how much it has increased? WITCHER: Not off the top of my head, I do not, but I do have statistics at the office. HOUSEL: Okay, thank you. Commissioners, do you have any questions? BOWMAN: I have a question. Just because we just had an application where there were 75 employees for a restaurant and I see that there are 53. Are these 53 then employed, these would be the employees that work for the facility, but you would have, like, the hairdressers, the restaurant, the medical offices, the gym would be non-employee, or would be contracted? CHU: Yes. These facilities are designed for the residents, so itÓs not, you know, in comparison to the Kawaihae situation where you are open to the general public and youÓre serving meals to crowds, this is to supply the needs of a senior community. And a senior community, while we support an active life style, seniors are just not as Î how would I say Î you probably donÓt need the size of a Kawaihae restaurant to service seniors at this restaurant; itÓs not going to be at the same scale as that restaurant. BOWMAN: But are these additional entities Î whatÓs the word Î are they going to be contracted out, so youÓll have, you know, a gym with additional people, medical offices, hairdressers, the restaurant staff? Is that included in the 53? CHU: Yes. And I just want to make sure you understand that the scale of this is not, itÓs designed for the residents, so the scale is much smaller than when you think of a restaurant, beauty salon, gym for the general public; the number of personnel required are much less. BOWMAN: So could you -. Again, IÓm sorry IÓm maybe not clear on this. The 53 includes the contract people if Î I thought you had said that the hairdressers, barbers, the gym would be contract people. CHU: Yeah, it includes the restaurant. And we are estimating, of course, as you know, now. Possibly, there might be others that come in as contractors. We are not certain yet, but I mean right now we estimate about 53 people to handle the food service. There is going to be housekeeping service. There is going to be nurses and physicians that come in and visit with people to meet the needs of the residents. BOWMAN: Okay. And you have no approximate idea of how the addi people -. The services that maybe youÓve looked at, there would be maybe ten or 15 people more possibly? 6 EXHIBIT B
