careful, youÓll get in an accident, right on this oncoming turn, right here, guarantee if
<br />youÓre not being careful. You come down this road, the next thing is right inside here,
<br />youÓll never make a turn right here. This is not the way this road is designed right here.
<br />ItÓs, cut across here is a 90-degree turn.
<br />So, we got some problems here. But like I say, you know, IÓd like to see it happen. But,
<br />you know, there are other ways. If the developer wants to spend the money now, make it
<br />a 10-, 20-year deal where if we subdivide ours at a later date, we pay for some of the cost.
<br />Hamakua Housing did that out in Hamakua. I bought land out in Ookala and the Housing
<br />put in a main waterline, turned over to the County, but made a 20-year stipulation. I had
<br />to hook up the water. I paid $4 -or $5,000 to hook up the water
<br />But what IÓm saying is, you know, if you guys want to approve it, let them do it, do it
<br />right. ÒCause the rest of the people, I guarantee you in another 5, 10 years, going come
<br />up with the next subdivision deals; and I might be one of them. But if we cut the corners
<br />now, weÓre going pay later.
<br />GALDONES:Mr. Cardoza, was there anything else that you wanted to mention
<br />in your testimony?
<br />CARDOZA:Can you hang on for a second?
<br />GALDONES:Sure, go ahead.
<br />CARDOZA:Yeah, I think IÓve said it. But maybe we can just clarify for
<br />subdivision purposes, I donÓt know what road width requirements are. You know, maybe
<br />we can look into that. Like I say, we bought the property as is, where is. Of course, we
<br />understood the situation, itÓs a private road. Now, you know, weÓre going to go through
<br />changes, which is fine; but letÓs do it right so we all can benefit from it. And, you know,
<br />whether my neighbors wants to subdivide it, give it to the kids at some time, itÓs done
<br />right from today. And if we need to pay back, well, we pay back
<br />house.
<br />GALDONES:Okay. Commissioner Fujikawa?
<br />FUJIKAWA:Yeah, I have a question with staff. Norman, is there a
<br />that road and is it a private road, or -?
<br />HAYASHI:The roadway that fronts the subject property is Kulana Kea Road;
<br />and that is a private roadway, 60-foot right-of-way with 24-foot wide pavement.
<br />FUJIKAWA:As it stands right now, whatÓs the requirement for development of
<br />the road?
<br />HAYASHI:Well, since the roadway is already there, what the Applicant is
<br />proposing is to have access off of that road as well as the side road called Kauhiula Road.
