from our position, okay, we said, you know, defer, it wasn’t us but a different body said defer, <br />and wait on that and get it figured out, and then you can maybe move ahead and go forward. So <br />in the meantime you said, okay, well, we’re just go ahead and build it out and do what we’re <br />going to do there, maybe understanding or not understanding what the impacts of that would be. <br />Now we’re in a position where we’re going to make a vote and we’re going to make a decision <br />based on this. And we’re also going to be setting precedent. So what does it mean? If <br />somebody else comes in front of us and we say no, you’re denied, you’re deferred or whatever it <br />is, well, just go ahead and build all the buildings unpermitted and do it anyways? I think that <br />was -. And I can see if you had one, you know, a house there that was permitted and a <br />greenhouse, and maybe a bunch of other accessory buildings that weren’t permitted, you’d be in <br />a little better position. So it just makes it more challenging from our side to not set precedence. <br />And I want to make sure that if this approved that we are not setting precedence to go ahead and, <br />and just go ahead with it anyways and thinking you’re going to get it passed. Do you know what <br />I mean? That’s very sticky. <br />And I also agree that giving the youth a place and a facility and services in that way is a great <br />thing. It’s a very good thing. It’s just tricky when you’re in a land use situation and you kind of <br />broke all the rules. So, thank you. <br />MCKINNEY: I do understand that. And, you know, it’s difficult to wait over three years <br />for a survey. We’ve looked at a lot of ways to try and do this the right way. So I also understand <br />the position I’ve put myself in in this company. And that’s why I’m hoping that some sort of <br />contingency, some sort plan where you can see our follow-through; and I would absolutely want <br />to keep everyone updated and be, you know, leave a good legacy and run an excellent program. <br />We are growing. I feel so blessed to have a program that’s growing and a company that’s <br />growing in this economy. And, yeah, that’s it. Thanks. <br />DOMINGO: Mr. Chair? <br />IWASHITA: Mr. Chair? <br />WOODWARD: Commissioner Domingo, then Commissioner Iwashita. <br />IWASHITA: Thank you. <br />DOMINGO: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. What I see is that you’re claiming ignorance to <br />the fact that you didn’t know what requirements there were in order to begin such an endeavor, <br />you know. And they say ignorance to the law is no excuse to it. To what extent have you taken <br />any steps in acquiring those building permits for these structures? <br />ZELKO: Actually I’ll speak to that. One of the reasons that none of the buildings <br />have been touched or done anything with at this point or submitted a building permit, Planning <br />would not sign off on something for the use that it’s now. We would have to have the special <br />permit in order to get a building permit approved. And so that’s why in the interim after he came <br />to us that you see nothing happening in the way of us getting a building permit in. We absolutely <br />plan to do it. And like I said I see we have to do it within six months if this approved. We just, <br />9 <br /> EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
