mind continues to go. So, what it is, as Commissioner Vitousek suggested, that we ask the <br /> Planning Department to work with the applicant to come up with some middle ground plan that <br /> addresses both needs that makes the most sense in terms of our role here as Commissioners. The <br /> question of sort of what kind of can of worms it opens, I think, is something we are not <br /> empowered to determine or equipped to determine. <br /> KERN: I will say, though, every action we take as a Commission sets a precedence and moves us <br /> forward in that direction <br /> KANUHA: Yeah <br /> KERN: there is a cumulative impact, the decisions that bodies like this make. That's yeah. <br /> DEFRANCO: Commissioner Vitousek. <br /> VITOUSEK: Thank you. No, and I think that this sets a good precedent for considering <br /> cumulative impacts within the SMA, because I feel like there are lots of small parcels in that area <br /> that have cumulatively impacted the coastal zone a lot bigger than, you know, one large <br /> development would have. So, to me, I think it's a good precedent that should be considered in <br /> future development within this area to create a proportional mitigation for the impact that's being <br /> created, and that, you know, requires work and planning from the Planning Department and <br /> figuring out what that proportional access and impact is going to be. But in the meantime, we <br /> trust you and your judgment to work out a good deal with that—at least I would.

After hearing all of this dialogue and, you know, <br /> kind of talking to Mr. Fujimoto and, you know, hearing what Commissioner Knowles had to say <br /> about like, you know, how do you rope in the County so that they would be, indirectly, in a <br /> position to kind of help manage the situation, and I thought that was a very good point because, <br /> you know, if the Director or someone approves the plan, then, you know, you have greater <br /> culpability and, you know, if we call upon you guys to kind of help enforce them, you've got to <br /> 24 <br /> EXHIBIT A <br />
