IWASHITA:Yes. DARROW:Commissioner Siracusa? SIRACUSA:Aye. DARROW:Commissioner Woodward? WOODWARD:Aye. DARROW:And Mr. Chairman? GRAHAM:Aye. DARROW:The motion passes eight to zero. GRAHAM:Thank you, Jeff. Commissioner Watanabe? WATANABE:Id be prepared to make a motion. I move that a favorable recommendationfortheStateLandUseBoundaryAmendmentapplicationSLU07-000013be forwarded to the County Council based on the Directors recommendation. GRAHAM:Id like to just interject a thought before we go forward on that. Since weve heard earlier that these two are really hooked together but the State Land Use one only relates to one, it seems to me it might be more appropriate to do the rezoning one first -- but maybe I would ask Mr. Torigoe -- so that, you know, we see where we go with the whole project as one before we do another motion on just a small part of the project. WATANABE:May I respond to that? GRAHAM:Certainly. WATANABE:The reason I made that motion with regard to the Hawaii Island Community Development project was because that is contingent upon the second going through. And so even if we were to approve it and not approve the second, change of zone, it would not matter. The land would never be given to Hawaii Island Community. So I think this way everything will work out anyway. GRAHAM:Mr. Yuen? YUEN:Yeah, Id like just to make brief suggestion. You have to vote on the LUC matter first, on the boundary reclassification from Ag to Urban first, simply because then the rezone follows, the rezone of the Residential area. The Residential area cannot be rezoned unless the area is reclassified from Ag to Urban. You know, the matter is coming together as a package so it makes sense for the Commissioners to discuss both of them at the same time, then take a vote on the Ag to Urban; and then take a vote on the remainder, on the other motion. Thats my suggestion for how to proceed. 27EXHIBIT A
