contribution,then I think this should be continued to be applied in that way. I also want to say <br /> that I think the use of the property as native forest is definitely the highest and best use and I agree <br /> with you guys and want to encourage you to do the best that you can in preserving that forest. I <br /> think preserving that forest, I don't know if it officially is an agricultural practice but it sure <br /> should be. So,best of luck with that. <br /> A. STEVENSON: We agree. <br /> KNOWLES: I concur Chair Vitousek, and I also want to commend the applicant <br /> on their willingness to revisit cultural practices and should those arrive and consider that as part of <br /> the stewardship of the land. And I also concur that it's important to protect this fair share <br /> responsibility in lieu of other potentially sort of county-wide legislation or regulation relating to <br /> infrastructure improvements which clearly, we will need going forward. But in the absence of <br /> those I think that this is an important thing to continue to do. Thank you. <br /> PAISHON-DUARTE: I echo Commissioners Vitousek and Knowles and applaud you folks <br /> for wanting to care for the particular `aina that you are located. My only hang up but not <br /> insurmountable is that I don't like the idea of us awaiting information for a report that is overdue. <br /> But I do understand that the department has done their work and has followed procedure and has <br /> awaited comments and the information that was yet to presented. Thank you. <br /> DEFRANCO: Mike? Well, I agree with my fellow commissioners. I think it's <br /> great that you're committed to the forest land and there's a very little change in impact of <br /> infrastructure and going forward as a community that it's good to see that you're connected in that <br /> way and that you honor the traditional cultural practices. So,thank you. So, is there anymore <br /> discussion? We could go for a roll call vote then on this okay. <br /> MERCADO: Okay. <br /> DEFRANCO: Okay, call for a vote. <br /> MERCADO: Commissioner Vitousek? <br /> VITOUSEK: Aye. <br /> MERCADO: Vice Chair Knowles? <br /> KNOWLES: Aye. <br /> MERCADO: Commissioner Dela Cruz? <br /> DELA CRUZ: Aye. <br /> MERCADO: Commissioner Paishon-Duarte? <br /> PAISHON-DUARTE: Aye. <br /> 13 <br /> EXHIBIT C <br />
