BOWMAN: Well, my question was, in relation to the right-in only from the church and that agreement, because ultimately youÓll have to work with your church -. SUMMERS: Yes, yes. BOWMAN: And that has been done? SUMMERS: Now, which right-in are you speaking of? The right-in only to our property here or the one that will eventually be on the Church of Christ property? BOWMAN: Yeah, the eventual. SUMMERS: The eventual. That was discussed with representatives from Church of Christ in a meeting held on May 1, 2003, with a whole bunch of County people in the MayorÓs office, and the Church of Christ agreed to and understood that that was going to be a requirement when our turn lane was built. For that reason, we are anticipating a connector. There is an existing road that loops the Church of Christ property that is presently used by Kona Christian Academy for pick-up and drop-off, and there is a connector in the lower part of that picture there that goes from our property back into that road that loops around, so that the people that are using that facility have the Î including for their Sunday services by the way Î but they have the opportunity to come back out and access our driveway. BOWMAN: So Î this is interesting Î so if people were coming down Palani and coming to your church, they could turn into the Church of Christ and then come back. They could turn in -. SUMMERS: IÓm not -. TheyÓll have a right in only once we get the turn lane built. Why would they do that? BOWMAN: I mean until the turn lane is built. SUMMERS: Well, we have advised people to go beyond the property and find a place where they can safely turn around. I personally, when IÓm coming from that direction, go down to Hao Kuni, do right turn into Hao Kuni and loop back around and come up. I donÓt know what everybody does. The school has asked that we not add congestionr property. And in fact, that is the property that belongs to the Church of Christ, which is a small church, but the school occupies the substantial use of those grounds Monday through Friday during normal school hours. So our intent, we have -. In fact, part of what Chris required is, Chris Yuen required us to do was to notify all of the people who attended our church for any of our programs that there was a restriction on turning left into the property; we designed a method of doing that, which weÓve also posted on our website as well as we put flyers on our bulletin every month, and we have made personal comments to our congregation at various times about the need to honor that. So in speaking both with Chris Yuen and with Ki Emler, they felt confident that that was a good faith effort along with this for trying to reduce any left turn impacts until the turn lane is in fact completed. The turn lane is assured at this point. If we somehow failed to do our job in building it, the County will take over those funds within a year and have the money to complete EXHIBIT A 15
