KANUHA: Yeah.
<br /> FUJIMOTO: —and they have like video cameras where it's policed a little bit better, so I might,
<br /> you know, consider them, too, so.
<br /> KANUHA: Yeah, that was just a question, because I know that would be a, you know, the
<br /> community would bring that up in a heartbeat, they would ask how come this guy, you know. I
<br /> commend what you did with that building. It looks a lot nicer than it's ever looked
<br /> FUJIMOTO: Yeah, I try my best.
<br /> KANUHA: Yeah, yeah
<br /> FUJIMOTO: This is one of the last things I need to do, so, yeah, I, it's going to cost me a lot of
<br /> money to repave it and stuff like that, and I know that, you know, that's going to be coming out of
<br /> my pocket, but I just wanted to try and keep it nice after that, you know, without having more
<br /> vandalism, is why we are asking for this, so, as much as, well,parking that we can charge to
<br /> subsidize that would be helpful for us.
<br /> KANUHA: Oh, yeah, definitely. I know that was something with the Kimi's when it came up,
<br /> they shut it down, and they brought the 90 minutes in
<br /> FUJIMOTO: Exactly, exactly.
<br /> KANUHA: brought the 90 minutes back in just because they did have a hard time, and they
<br /> were required by, to provide public parking. With public parking, it can be paid, but, you know,
<br /> they heard the cries from the community, and they went to that 90-minute, and that was just
<br /> something I was wondering if you are open to
<br /> FUJIMOTO: Ninety-minute is a little bit too much, you know. I'd be like open to maybe 20
<br /> minutes, you know, for somebody to come and grab lunch or something like that, but 90 minutes
<br /> like somebody come in there and park and they come back for another 90 minutes, you know,
<br /> what I mean? It's really hard to police that.
<br /> KANUHA: Yeah.
<br /> FUJIMOTO: I'd rather not have any restrictions, if possible, but I'm going to still open it to the
<br /> public so that the public can park, you know, there. Because it's really close, you know, it's only
<br /> 300 feet away from Ali`i Drive, and once you come out of Ali`i Drive to Sarona, and you walk
<br /> that backway, you are in the center of, Kona Inn is right there, so it's a really convenient place for
<br /> the public to park, and we have no objections to it. And the public has been parking closer to the
<br /> road, Ali`i Drive, as much as possible because they don't want to walk up on the hill, even though
<br /> there is parking around that area that controlled by Diamond, there is a lot of parking, but not too
<br /> many people park on the upper side because, you know, people don't like to walk up hills. So, our
