submit her written testimony, which you should have, and exhibits, if any; and that she would not be appearing today; that the contested case hearing would go forward based on her written testimony and whatever other evidence the parties will present today. So its one of those situations where the parties have agreed to modify a contested case procedure. And so we will just go forward on that basis. GRAHAM:Thank you. So in my preparation for how to conduct this, you know, I looked over what Kimo did the last time we had a contested case in Kona and I got the material from a contested case workshop we had, so I want to just try to pretty much follow that pattern. The general procedure that we have is that were going to have three parties, one of whom is not here, the applicant, and the Planning Department are the other two parties. The Intervenor is not here today, but we do have some written material from the Intervenor, though not a lot. And so well have opening statements from the parties that are here. And then well have the applicant presenttheircaseforthespecialpermit;andthenwellsortofgoovertheIntervenorscase,and the Director will give the Planning Departments case. And then well do closing statements. And then well come back and deliberate on it ourselves and make a decision today, or make a decision some other day. So I would invite the applicant to also come forward; and if theres anyone here from the public who wanted to testify on this, please make it known to Sharon over here; and well take some public statements in a short while. Could perhaps just the folks up at the table here just introduce themselves for us now, if you would. And maybe the first thing I could do is ask you to raise your hand and swear you all in. Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth in the Planning Commissions session here today? PARTIES:Yes, we do. GRAHAM:Thank you. Okay, so Ill start on my left. Could you identify yourself, please. FAY:Yes. My name is Pat Fay; and Im co-owner of the proposed bed and breakfast. You need my address? GRAHAM:Not this moment. Thank you. FAY:Okay. ROBLEE:Im Mary Roblee, the other owner of the bed and breakfast, proposed bed and breakfast. GRAHAM:Thank you, Mary. Yes, Mr. Yuen? YUEN:Chris Yuen, Planning Director, business address is 101 Pauahi Street, Suite 3. 2
