KRUEGER: Mr. Chairman, this is Dennis Krueger. I have no objection to deferring <br />this matter to a later time in this meeting. <br />MATSUKAWA: Same, this is Mike Matsukawa, to the end of the calendar, fine. <br />WATANABE: Thank you. <br />YUEN: And Chris Yuen. That’s fine. <br />WATANABE: Okay, thank you. <br />DOMINGO: Mr. Chairman? <br />WATANABE: Yes, Mr. Domingo. <br />DOMINGO: Just a thought I have. You know, this whole issue was decided by the <br />courts and the court remanded this issue back to the Planning Commission for further <br />deliberation. And during the course of deliberation, we had advised, through meetings, both <br />representatives from both sides to work things out. And that has been several months ago. And I <br />think in September we had taken up this issue and deliberated on that, and we took a vote on it, <br />but there was not a majority vote to determine either or, whether it was approved or not. And we <br />are here today, and we are asking them, we are suggesting a deferral so they can go back and <br />further discuss this issue so that they may be able to come to some agreement. If that is <br />something promising on their part that they can work out something, it will be well. But if not, <br />you know, I think it’s going to be something we should seriously think about, because we are <br />going to come back here again and face the same issue. And I just was -. <br />WATANABE: I understand your concern, but actually they, what they are working on <br />with their clients is to satisfy some of our procedural issues with regard to the 90-day; it’s not to <br />compromise on whether to, you know, approve or disapprove the permit, the Special Permit. So <br />I, you know, and we are not suggesting that we would defer this to another meeting because the <br />90-day period would expire prior to that. So what we are suggesting is that we defer it to a later <br />point so that both counsels will be able to confer with their clients, and whatever they represent <br />today will be with the blessing of their clients. <br />DOMINGO: So is it correct to assume that the clock is stopped right now until they <br />decide a procedural avenue to take, whatever procedural avenue there is to take? <br />WATANABE: That is right. Nothing has transpired that would change the clock at this <br />point. <br />DOMINGO: Okay. <br />WATANABE: Okay. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />8 <br /> <br />
