improvements with water, and sewer, and a channelized intersection out in that area. They do not believe that theres adequate need for an industrial area to justify their expenditures. So while the property is zoned there are no current plans, active plans, at least that Im aware of in my discussions with the ranch, to start subdividing that property. Its a dilemma of, you know, we do have industrial needs but, unfortunately, there are many tow operators, including in Waimea, who operate who have no permits and not operating in industrial-zoned areas. So they have no incentive to try to move into an industrial area. I think the ranch doesnt believe that the, with David and a handful of other people that they could justify the expenses they would have go to extend their waterline and sewer line into that area. So I guess to answer your question, there are no plans that Im aware of to actively develop that park. They do have the zoning. It was part of their 2020 Plan, but there is no active zoning. So -. SIRACUSA:Okay. I have a few other questions, if I may? SPRINGER:Commissioner Siracusa? SIRACUSA:I understand the rest of the parcel is an agricultural use and Id like toknowexactlywhatkindofagriculturaluseitsin.Imean,isitpasture,aretheresome crops or, you know? MCCOLLOUGH:Currently, its pasture land. I do have three paddocks that are fenced off that Im raising goats in that do get sold at holidays, and didnt want to go with the cows. SIRACUSA:All right. I just wanted to point out that where the spirit is, that doesnt make that area necessarily impossible to use for agricultural purposes because, for example, storage sheds and things like that could go on top of it. And you could be storing feed or whatever in there, so thats not a scenic one on, you know? But people seem to be concerned about the hours of operation. Im wondering if you would be voluntarily willing to, theyre talking about early mornings, if you would be willing to start, say, an hour later, 6:30 in the morning, to accommodate your neighbors? MCCOLLOUGH:Actually, the office itself opens up at 6:30. The tow operation that theyre referring to, the noise, doesnt open till 8 oclock. SIRACUSA:So what happens at 6:30? So its just the office, you mean? MCCOLLOUGH:At 6:30 I go into the office and I handle all the mainland customers who are way ahead of time of us. I have to get in that early to be able to speak with them since were so far behind on time. SIRACUSA:All right. So the noise actually starts, what time would you estimate that as far as, you know, from your neighbors perspective? 5
