SIRACUSA:Yes. It was just circulated around to us a bunch of pages of petitions in favor of the development from residents of Kulaimano Subdivision; and I looked them over to see if there were Pepeekeo addresses, and as far as I could tell most of them were. So I was wondering when you were going around talking to people, were you talking to people within that subdivision, or outside of that subdivision, or a little of both or, could you be a little more clearer about that? L. MEEK:Ive been to almost every street in the Kulaimano, and weve got Old Mamalahoa, and some of them above the highway. In the beginning my husband and I were going back to houses that people werent home, and then it got to the point where this is ridiculous were never going to finish this thing if we keep doing that. So we just, if somebody wasnt home we just kept on going and we didnt -. At the beginning we were writing down all the addresses we missed so that we could go back to them. But, and afterward we said forget this, Ill never finish. But even up to last night, I was out till 8:30 in the evening up in the upper areasandpeopledidntknowaboutthishappening.Thereweretwopeoplethatdidknowabout it. One man was very irate about the whole thing and he said, give me that, let me sign; and I said, no, I cannot let you sign unless I go through my whole spill because I dont want you to sign unless you know what youre signing about. And so he had to sit there while I went through my whole spill. And then another person had heard about it, and he said if youre here to tell me that you want this to go through, its no. And I said No, Im with a petition; and he said Okay, give it to me, let me sign. But I also want to mention, if you look at my petition, there is an area where were asking for mitigation where were saying lets try to find an alternate place. We had somebody looking for an alternate place. That person turned in four lots to Mr. Yagong. We dont know what happened to it after we turned it in. Also, were saying if they want to do this, then just like the rest of the Pepeekeo-Kulaimano people, have them hook up to the sewer line. Of course, theyve already told us in the very first meeting when we met with them that they wont do it because its too expensive, and yet the subdivision is only a quarter mile away from the sewer plant. And then we also say have them fix the road because people are complaining that its even -. SIRACUSA:Okay, I had asked for just one simple question. And it was if you had polled the people in Kulaimano -. L. MEEK:Yes. SIRACUSA:Because we have a petition from them that runs counter to your petition. Thats all I wanted to know -. L. MEEK:Sorry. I get like that -. SIRACUSA:If you had Kulaimano people on your petition also. L. MEEK:Yes. SIRACUSA:Okay, thank you. 13EXHIBIT A
