ALAMEDA:Real quick question first, Mr. Lim, if you don’t mind. Commissioner <br />Iwashita? <br />IWASHITA:It’s not a question but I’m a lawyer, I represent one of the parties involved <br />in the sale that Mr. Lim just mentioned. So, I guess, just a concern about conflict. I don’t really <br />see it as a conflict but -. <br />LIM:We have no problem with you acting on this matter. <br />IWASHITA:Okay. I just wanted to disclose that. <br />ALAMEDA:Mr. Torigoe? <br />TORIGOE:It doesn’t matter to your client one way or another how this turns out <br />today, right? <br />IWASHITA:Does it matter to my client? <br />TORIGOE:Yes. <br />IWASHITA:My client is the seller, so -. <br />TORIGOE:But what this special permit is trying to accomplish doesn’t have anything <br />to do with what your client is doing, does it? <br />IWASHITA:The only scenario I can see that, you know, the potential for me voting <br />against it, right, that that would, I mean, that possibility is there. So that in that case it can be <br />viewed that I at least have an appearance of a conflict because my client now is selling the <br />business that the applicant here, you know, he can’t buy it because he won’t be able to run his <br />business there. So I just wanted to disclose that because I see that, I mean, that’s, I’m not saying <br />which way I’m going but, you know, the potential for me voting against it is there; and if I did, <br />and if it didn’t go through, you know, I don’t want a hoo hoo from the applicant. <br />LIM:Well, if you’re willing to, Mr. Iwashita, if you’re willing to represent that <br />you can be fair and impartial, then we have no problem with you voting on it. <br />IWASHITA:That is my representation. <br />LIM:We accept that. <br />ALAMEDA:Thank you. Mr. Deluz, you have the mike now, go ahead. <br />DELUZ:As a resident of Waimea, born and raised in Waimea, I’ve been servicing <br />the Waimea community for maybe about 15 years. And my service to the Waimea community <br />is, I made it easy for them to bring their cars to me where they don’t have to go to Hilo or Kona. <br />A lot of the Waimea residents are elderly retired people and our service is good also for the <br />EXHIBIT C <br />4 <br /> <br />
