gets, I mean, even after hours or shut down, you still have the loitering and excessive
<br />trash in that area.
<br />And the fencing property, when you, if this property is going to be fenced, how high is
<br />the fence and what is that going to do to the animals that we raise now? These are the
<br />concerns that we have. And how can that be to protect us? ÒCause weÓve already, weÓve
<br />been there for this length of time.
<br />SPRINGER:Thank you, Ms. Hanohano. At this time, IÓd like to ask the staff if
<br />they have any comments, first of all, with regard to Ms. HanohanoÓs questions regarding
<br />the increase in traffic flow. Commissioners, youÓll see that there is a traffic impact
<br />assessment included in our packet. Norman, can you explain the ramifications of this
<br />regarding Ms. HanohanoÓs question?
<br />HAYASHI:Yes. Regarding the traffic issue, a traffic impact report was
<br />submitted by the Applicant, and that was sent to both the Department of Public Works
<br />and the State Department of Transportation for their review; and, basically, both agencies
<br />stated that they had no objections to the subject request. And as far as the State
<br />Department of Transportation, they indicated that the proposed change to the Special
<br />Permit is not anticipated to have any significant impact on the State highway system.
<br />With regard to the, as Ms. Hanohano had indicated, they are operating a piggery on their
<br />property. And as far as whether that would, the piggery would still be able to exist. This
<br />particular property, your property would still remain within the State Land Use
<br />Agricultural District. So that is a permitted use within that, on your property. So,
<br />basically, the granting of this Special Permit would not necessarily impact your piggery,
<br />as far as whether you can use it, continue to use it or not.
<br />And, thirdly, regarding the hours of operation, I guess, this is a request that the Applicant
<br />is, ApplicantÓs request to change the hours of operation from daylight hours to 6:00 a.m.
<br />to 9:00 p.m., so perhaps that question could be better directed to the ApplicantÓs
<br />representative.
<br />I just noticed on the staffÓs Background Report, there is a typo, typographical error on,
<br />regarding the hours of operation. It says, and this is only on the Background Report, it
<br />says 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. So that should be 6:00 a.m. to 9:00
<br />SPRINGER:Thank you, Norman. Mr. Gadd, can you respond to the qu
<br />Ms. Hanohano, please?
<br />GADD:As far as the request for hours of operation, I think that daylight
<br />time is kind of unreasonable because it changes. And it would be hard to, you know, tell
<br />a business that they have to close earlier in the winter than they do in the summer; and
<br />this is two hours earlier than Wiki-Wiki, which is just a few hundred feet away closest.
<br />And as far as the fence, IÓm not sure what kind of fence we would put, but a fence would
