HOUSEL: Okay, okay. <br />YAMAMOTO: There are several unsignalized, but most of them are signalized. <br />HOUSEL: So pedestrian safety would not be an issue you don’t believe? <br />YAMAMOTO: In terms of crossing the street they have the signals. I think what <br />Mr. Fuke was referring to earlier was on the, having sidewalks as a pedestrian safety feature. <br />HOUSEL: Thank you. <br />YAMAMOTO: Okay, and I think so, yeah. <br />HOUSEL: Okay. Okay, thank you. <br />WATANABE: Well, do we have any further questions for the applicant? No, none? Oh, <br />yes, Mr. Yuen. <br />YUEN: And I think you also asked me about fair share. Again, this is something I <br />would leave it to Council to decide if Council wanted not to assess fair share rather than the <br />Planning -. I as Planning Director would not make a recommendation on this. We have, you <br />know, there have been fair shares assessed on worthy projects including affordable housing <br />projects. <br />WATANABE: Okay. So then, yes, Ms. Ogata. <br />OGATA: I have a question about the parking, the parking situation, I guess. I can <br />see that most of the students that would be staying in these apartments would be probably, would <br />probably choose to walk to campus rather than take a car and pay for parking and all of that.

And I think that if we, I’m kind of reflecting on my own <br />personal college experience. I think like, you know, if you have like four persons living in an <br />apartment unit probably only one person has a car and you all kind of like pool your way <br />through. Cause if you’re going to pay, you or your parents or somebody is going to pay 975 a <br />month then it’s probably going to be very tough to also at the same time own and operate a <br />vehicle. Can I just further comment? <br />WATANABE: Sure. <br />FUKE: I can understand what the Director is saying. And likewise, too, like one <br />of the things that Place Properties have asked us is like whether this body or like, you know, <br />through a condition there could be relief from paying real property tax, you know, in the same <br />way like how the University of Hawaii is exempt. And we had informed them that, you know, <br />this has to be taken on a separate track. I mean, you know, if they want to have amendments to <br /> EXHIBIT D <br />7 <br /> <br />
