165, there’ll be maybe 10, maybe 15 visitor stalls, what they usually have is visitor-designated stalls, and the rest are generally in practice assigned to each unit. So I assume one parking stall would be for each unit, so that comes to 120; and then the remainder is either for visitor or some units will have assigned a second stall. And all, you know, I think what is required by the County is that you have “x” number of stalls versus units, but I’m not sure about that. Do you really think that that’s enough parking? ALAMEDA:Mr. Fuke? FUKE:Well, what’s being proposed is slightly more than the minimum required by the County. In this situation here, you would be, if you’re asking me for my personal unbiased opinion, I think it would behoove any developer to provide the required on-site parking, particularly in areas like this, ‘cause you have no opportunities for off-site parking. And if you don’t have any off-site parking and there’s not enough parking, then it diminishes your ability to market the properties effectively. So, that is why -. RHO:So that 165 is just the minimum? FUKE:It’s one stall -. RHO:The planned minimum? FUKE:It’s like one, for each unit that you have, there is a requirement for 1.25 stalls per unit; and I think in this situation you have 1.5, yeah. I think it’s 1.5. But, you know, that may turn out to be insufficient relative to their overall marketing plan; and given the need to comply with, what the County is talking about like, you know, possible connection to Alii Parkway and all that stuff, the plans have got to be modified. And that is why like, as I mentioned in my prefatory comments, that there may be a need to possibly reduce the density to accommodate the very issues that you’re raising. I think that if you’re dealing with the project that has an opportunity for on-street parking, then the issue that you’re possibly alluding to could become a significant public issue. But in this situation here because there’s no public parking, on-street parking that’s going to be allowed on the Parkway and the parking along Alii Drive in that area, it’s going to be very limited to begin already because of the competing parking for the recreation activity at Pahoehoe Park and the Magic Sands; and besides it’s a little bit distant, you know. Because although the property abuts the Alii Drive, the bulk of the developable area is really like significantly mauka of Alii Drive. And so the opportunity for use of any of the on-street parking at Alii Drive would probably be, because of its location, somewhat diminished. RHO:Somewhat diminished but I think they still would park on Alii Drive if they didn’t have a parking stall. FUKE:Conceivably that could happen correct, yeah. RHO:I mean, they would actually do that. So my other question is whether or not you know how many stalls would be, not constructed but lined for that area that you guys mentioned at the beginning of this meeting, that the developer would pave or do -?
