WATANABE:I have a question, Mr. Fuke. You mentioned that the current plans say we were going to extend Laaloa as a mauka-makai connector to Ali`i Parkway, right? FUKE:My understanding is that the County’s plan is to have that Laaloa Street extension, yeah. WATANABE:Yeah, which is, you know, directly, well, not exactly directly but in close proximity to the subject property. But does that also mean that your project would be able to have a north-south connector possibly to Laaloa so that there would be an additional way out of that -? You see, I know that the County does not want to have an abundance of intersections, they want to keep this as a highway; and I tend to agree with that. But then in order to do that and in order for you, the residents of your subject property, to have access to Ali`i Parkway, they’d have to have a north-south connector to Laaloa. And maybe it’s not entirely within your capability to respond because, you know, I don’t think it’s contiguous. FUKE:But, nevertheless, in the interest of like connectivity, you know, your Planning Director has been thinking along that line. Because if you look at proposed Condition 5 that the Director has suggested there is a requirement that the Applicant develop an access and circulation plan providing for inter-connection of adjoining parcels. So that’s like a north-south type of connection. WATANABE:Oh, that’s what this is referring to? FUKE:That’s correct. That’s the condition that the Director is proposing now. So there will be a requirement. And so it goes back again to my original comment that what you see right now, you know, we’ve had to, it’s like an evolving thing. So what you see right now is based upon all information we have. And then there’s public comments, the agency comments; and if this project gets approved, there’s going to have to be further massaging to reflect the kind of issues and concerns and the conditions that the County will be approving. WATANABE:Thank you. Mr. Rho? RHO:Yeah. Also in this report, I’m not sure what to call it, but there’s this Traffic Impact Analysis Report; and on Page 3, at the bottom of Page 3, it refers, that whole paragraph talks about a State Department of Transportation traffic count that they take every two years. And the period that I guess is used in your report is the period from 1982 to 2002. Am I reading that correct? FUKE:Half correct, 1990 to 2002. RHO:Oh, okay, 1990 to 2002, a 10-year period that they do this every two years is my understanding. Right? EXHIBIT C 10
