WATANABE: And this kind of falls into play why I brought up the past practices of <br />focusing the Commercial type of zoning around particular intersections; and generally that’s the <br />way we’ve done it, yeah, in the past. So it’s consistent I believe with past practices. So is <br />everyone satisfied? If everyone is satisfied then Mrs. Udani you may be seated and we’ll <br />deliberate on this. <br />There was a suggestion and it has been confirmed by the applicant that access would be only <br />from Lanikaula Street, and I’m referring to Condition F. And so may I suggest that we remove <br />from the first sentence “Kilauea Avenue and” so that it only states Lanikaula Street, “Access to <br />the property from Lanikaula Street shall be limited to the extreme limits of the property away <br />from the Kilauea Street-Lanikaula Street intersection and meeting with the approval of the <br />Department of Public Works.” And, of course, we’re going to return the no left turns, yeah, <br />because of the proximity to the intersection. So, yes. <br />BOWMAN: I just have a question again on the enforcement of the left turn because, <br />you know, if the signal, you’re coming up Kilauea and the signal turns green and you turn left, <br />there are all those cars backed up. There’s no way that they can turn into that parcel. But is that <br />going to be required for them to design it, Chris like you said? So, I mean, is that a requirement? <br />YUEN: Well, to tell you the truth I’m still puzzled how this is -. We had an email <br />exchange with the Department of Public Works on this. And reading it over I actually don’t <br />understand how you can sign for no left turn. because the other properties, how you can sign on <br />Lanikaula Street for no left turn into this one property. Because the next person’s house, they <br />can turn left into their house. <br />SIRACUSA: Would it have to do with stripping of the road? <br />YUEN: I don’t see how you -. We asked the Department of Public Works and <br />they said that you can’t physically, there’s not enough room to do what I said on the physical <br />restriction of having a splitter-type situation. So, and I don’t see it. Norman, do you have an <br />idea of how they’re going to do this? <br />HAYASHI: I think it’s a matter of the public self-policing themselves. There’s no way <br />for us putting a no left turn sign at that particular intersection or on the roadway. So from a <br />practical standpoint perhaps that particular condition saying no left turn is not necessary. If there <br />was a sign on the property that says you cannot go left then that’s possible to do that. But I think <br />Public Works wanted a no left turn from Lanikaula onto the property. <br />WATANABE: Well, can I chime in. That may be why they’re indicating extreme <br />portions of the property from either Lanikaula or Kilauea Avenue, meaning that it would be a <br />right turn in which could physically be on the property practically prohibit by creating curbs a <br />left turn from Lanikaula onto the property; and then you could physically, you know, with curbs <br />again prevent someone from making a left turn onto Kilauea while you’re exiting the property. <br />YUEN: Well, I -. That’s why I talked about having a splitter type of situation but <br />there’s not enough room. The lot is small. What’s the frontage on Lanikaula? <br /> EXHIBIT A <br />10 <br /> <br />
