you wish to exceed whatever has been represented here, then you would have to go in for the amendment. SPRINGER:So in the event that a, after additional development an increase in the number of units was desired, would that be an administrative process with the Planning Director? FUKE:No, it would have to be through the same process that weÓre going through right now, public hearing through the Planning Commission for the SMA; and depending on what the County Council ultimately conditions as a, for the Project District zoning before the County Council. SPRINGER:Thank you. FUJIKAWA:Are there any other questions from the Commissioners? Go ahead, Commissioner Graham. GRAHAM:Sidney, this is not so much a question as more a heads-up for, you know, what is my concerns that will probably come forth if we have a continued hearing. When the Planning Director was speaking of the transportation issue, we have a Department of Transportation thatÓs taken into account the different parcels in this area and how to coordinate them. When weÓre talking about water quality and ocean resources, we donÓt have any department of that, that sort of looking at all the different possible projects and what effect they might all cumulatively have. And I noticed when I read your Appendices A, B and C regarding water quality, marine resources and all, it all seems, you know, just whatÓs coming from your project. So it ma upon you to put together the full plan for whatÓs going on but itÓs certainly incumbent upon me and us to consider the cumulative effect of all whatÓs going on. So I donÓt feel itÓs appropriate that we act in sort of a first-come, first-serve basis. Meaning that a certain amount of nutrient loading maybe wouldnÓt cause much problems, and if youÓre the first one to get here and get a permit for it, then you get to use it. That doesnÓt really feel right to me. So I have a concern about the overall planning as far as whatÓs going to be the impact on the ocean and the water resources. FUJIKAWA:Are there any questions or comments from the Commissioners to this Applicant? I have a question with the Director. Being that the Applicant had just stated that this is a land exchange with the State, is the State aware of that so they could assist these people in speeding up the process on the traffic control situation? YUEN:I donÓt know if the land exchange has any, I donÓt know if the Department of Transportation cares if the property was exchanged at, when, a dozen years or so ago, I think, with the State. FUJIKAWA:Maybe the County should inform the State that being that this was a land exchange that maybe they could look into it faster. Any other questions to 9
