COTTLE: No. BOWMAN: Okay, my concern, again, would be the traffic, it’s a gravel road, it is fairly remote; and I think if the applicant brings in produce it limits it to him. It’s not to say that he can’t hire people to help him, right? It’s the applicant’s kitchen. And this is where it’s a fine line, but we don’t know if there are other commercial kitchens. You know to me this is two really separate applications. Because if he’s going to bring in people and produce to create jellies or whatever you’re going to do in that kitchen, then why can’t it just be limited to the applicant? WOODWARD: All right. Anybody else? Commissioner Iwashita? IWASHITA: Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would like nothing more than to do everything this body can to promote economic development on this island, but within the process of this particular application. What Mr. Maeda is asking for is the right for him to use a commercial kitchen to process his own products. So by putting that specifically in the application we’re giving him everything he wants, everything he wants. What’s being suggested is we ought to give him more because we have these other concerns; and that is what’s problematic. WOODWARD: All right, thank you. BOWMAN: May I clarify something -? WOODWARD: Sure. BOWMAN: That I believe Mr. Maeda said it’s not just the things grown on his land but if there’s other produce that he could help manufacture in his kitchen, neighbor’s, kind of like again the Paauilo, the vanilla farm. And I believe in his statement that’s what he said, he’d like to bring in outside -. He wouldn’t have to have our okay if he just did his produce. But what I heard him say is that he’d like to bring, he doesn’t want to limit it to just his farm. So, again, if that is his intention and we give him that leeway to operate it, bringing in vegetables or cows or whatever from other people, then that was agreeable by the applicant. Maybe I’m wrong. WOODWARD: All right. Well, I think this horse is dead. And I think we ought to take a vote. So, anybody else have any other comments? Last chance. Okay, Maija. COTTLE: Can I clarify one other condition? WOODWARD: Certainly. COTTLE: The Director had suggested a condition stating that the kennels shall be located approximately as shown on the site plan, and I don’t know that he mentioned this but I have a note here that he also wanted to say “and shall be built with EXHIBIT A 25
