DONAHOE:Okay. WOODWARD:Between you and the developer. DONAHOE:All right. WOODWARD:Do we have any other questions for Mr. Donahoe from the Commission? Okay, well, thank you, sir. Thank you for your testimony, both of you. Mr. Lim, if we could have you come back and maybe address these issues, especially with regard to the easement question. LIM:We’ve been working with Mr. Paiva and his attorney on the access easement issues and he is -. I think what we’re going to find when we get all of the documents, and when he gets all the documents and we look at them, is that his parcel doesn’t have any formal legal access out to Kukuau Road. This is a Land Court land. This whole area is Land Court land. And it was intended at one time, I think, to be subdivided out and improved with a roadway system; and all that stuff didn’t happen because the original developer didn’t follow through on the development plans. So lands were sold off separately, as you see. And because this is Land Court land, there is no adverse possession for Mr. Paiva. However, you know, we recognize that he’s land-locked and we want to try to do the right thing with him. So I just have to, I cannot commit that today because I don’t have my client here. He couldn’t make it today. But we are in discussions with him and we hope to solve that problem within the next week or so. So I think that the access issue will be resolved one way or the other within the next 30 days, let’s say. With respect to the statements by Mr. Donahoe, we do want to meet with him; and so if he’s -. He has my contact information. So you can call me to set up a meeting, either of you, and we’ll talk about it. Some of the things that he has raised, you know, such as will there be solar panels, will there be laundry facilities, and will there be an area set aside for line drying or laundry, those types of things are things that we probably won’t be able to tell you right away. But that’s something that -. And that is to be clear, that there is no real public forum like this for those issues. The only way you really could have any significant input in would be to appeal any kind of a plan approval that’s granted for the project. So that would be your way to do it. I mean we’re always, like I say, open to talking to you. So I’d urge you to do that with us. Any other questions that I didn’t cover? WOODWARD:Okay. Well, this, if this is voted in, if we vote to send a favorable recommendation, this will have to appear before the County Council. And so between now and that time you should have an opportunity to work something out with Mr. Paiva. And that would kind of be your timeframe if this Commission votes to send a favorable recommendation, is this has to be brought up then before County Council. And that would give you both time to make it work; and, if not, then one can squawk. That would be my suggestion. Okay, do we have any further questions? Commissioner Iwashita. 9 EXHIBIT A
