NEKOBA:Mr. Iwashita, you asked about the Community Development Plan, that€s <br />the first time I heard about it, you know, in this hearing; and it seems like that is what should be <br />happening. Now if there€s a way to do that, I think the public can be made aware of it so that, <br />you know -. I mean, you want me to write a letter, I don€t write letters, my wife writes the <br />letters. But, anyway, we can get this thing, you know, moving, because I think it will be for <br />everybody, including the developer. I€m not against the developers, you know. <br />ALAMEDA:Commissioner Iwashita, question for our testifier? <br />IWASHITA:Like I said earlier, everybody contact your counsel person and tell them <br />this needs to be done; and, you know, I mean, that is what needs to be done. You know, the <br />Department has very limited resources and what they have is being used on the West side right <br />now, because that€s where the perception of the problems, you know, the more critical problems <br />are.ButcontactyourCouncilperson.Andtheyhavemoneynowsotheycannottellyoudon€t <br />have money. <br />NEKOBA:Can I just have a clarification on those ƒ they had some stipulations before <br />the project; and one was the curbing. Was it to be the whole street? <br />YUEN:No, just the frontage, just the frontage of these three lots. <br />NEKOBA:Just the frontage. Well, yeah, that€s why I showed the picture. But I <br />thought maybe, you know, they changed it. So, okay. <br />ALAMEDA:I appreciate your testimony. Thank you very much. You may be seated. <br />All right we have two additional testifiers. Let€s call up Thomas Hirano and Tim Young. Please <br />come forward. All right. Please raise your right hand. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth <br />now before the Hawaii County Planning Commission? <br />TESTIFIERS:I do. <br />ALAMEDA:All right, thank you. We can start off on my far left. Could you please <br />state your name and address for the record. <br />HIRANO:Thomas Hirano. <br />ALAMEDA:Address? <br />HIRANO:It€s 708 Kanoelehua Avenue. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay, Mr. Hirano, you can proceed with your testimony. <br />HIRANO:Mr. Chairman, Commissioners, my family and I own properties in the <br />Waiakea Houselots area. One of these is along Kalanikoa and Leilani Streets, less than 2 blocks <br />from Mr. Mochida€s and Mr. Aburamen€s proposed townhouse project. Given its proximity to <br />our properties and as active members of our community, we do have an understandable interest <br />in the outcome of this project. <br />19EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
