us for a vote, weÓre still in discussion on the matter. And I b <br />Graham may have some comments or questions. <br />GRAHAM:Actually, my comment was on the application but not on that <br />particular matter. So if weÓre still going on that, I should wa <br />SPRINGER:If you could. I understand that we do have an additional member <br />of the audience who has signed up to testify, and thatÓs Ron Terry, and his comments are <br />particularly germane to this issue before us. So if the Commissioners have no objections, <br />IÓd like to invite Ron Terry to come to us and come to the table, to the microphone, if you <br />would, please. And, Mr. Terry, could you please raise your right hand? Do you swear or <br />affirm to tell the truth on this matter now before the HawaiÒi County Planning <br />Commission? <br />TERRY:Yes, I do. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you. Mr. Terry, could you please provide your name, your <br />resident address and proceed? <br />TERRY:Ron Terry, HC2, Box 9575, Keaau, Hawaii 96749. Thank you <br />this late opportunity to provide testimony. As you know, IÓve been here before on this <br />matter supporting Mr. Wood as a member of the community. I think itÓs a very good <br />idea. I think all my comments germane to that are already on the record and, although <br />there are new Commissioners here, I think, were shared by other testifiers at that same <br />hearing. And I think youÓre aware how badly we need commercial services in Puna, so I <br />will drop that. <br />Regarding the fence, I was just concerned; and it sounds like it has been resolved here <br />that we do not require a security fence around the entire parcel. Chain-linked fences that <br />are eight feet high in the road frontages are really not an attractive option and should only <br />be put in places that require security. Like maybe a mini store I can see why you have to <br />have a fence around it. But I would strongly hope that the Commission would consider <br />the aesthetics of that and refrain from requiring that. On the boundaries of the parcel, I <br />think thatÓs a fine, a great idea. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you, Mr. Terry. Commissioners, are there any further <br />questions? Now, weÓve had this, weÓve been having discussion -. <br />Mr. Terry. WeÓve been discussing the possibility of inserting a new Condition 10 to the <br />conditions of approval for this application. Is there any further discussion on that matter <br />of a new No. 10? Are any of us prepared to make a motion regard <br />condition? <br />KUBOTA:Madam Chair? <br />SPRINGER:Mrs. Kubota? <br />16 <br /> <br />
