HOUSEL: Thirteenth of January? ARAI: Yes. th HOUSEL: Ms. Song, would the 13 of January possibly work for you? FUKE: Again, as your counsel had advised, we are both trying to move this thing along, save monies for all of the affected parties including the County to, you know, eliminate or obviate a need for a contested case hearing. So if the intervention request were acted upon and favorably granted today, I guess my only request in the interest of the time and the money is that, you know, for all of th the clients and the County involved, that this matter still be agendized for the 15, you know, with the understanding that if there is no resolution reached between the affected parties, that this matter will proceed as scheduled for the January hearing on a contested HOUSEL: So you would prefer to go forward today then, is that what I understand? FUKE: No, itÓs just to accommodate what Ms. Song is saying, you know, just to accept the intervention request. And if you do so, then we would request that this matter be agendized again for your next meeting in December. And in the, I would say, unlikely event that we cannot, the parties cannot resolve the issue, then we will just request it be postponed and just proceed with a contested case hearing beginning in January or February. HOUSEL: So you are fine with going ahead with determining the standing condition today? FUKE: Well, from the applicantÓs standpoint, you know, as Ms. Song had indicated, the Hirayamas live within the surrounding areas, so they have no objections to the CommissionÓs acceptance of the intervention request. We are just trying to see how we can find a way to move this thing along in a most efficient and least costly manner. HOUSEL: Ms. Song, do you have a comment on that? Do you want to go forward? SONG: Yes, IÓd like to go forward. The only thing I might say is if anything is put on the December agenda and if I donÓt have a written agreement, my clients do not have a written agreement with Mr. Fuke, this Commission cannot do anything because I canÓt be here. And I donÓt think I can find anybody with the expertise in land use to fill in for me, attorney. FUKE: The applicant -. GONZALEZ: Well, I think the representation by Mr. Fuke is he wants it on the December agenda in case you guys reach a resolution, so that they can act upon it; because if itÓs not put on the agenda by next week Monday, no action can be taken, if you guys resolved it. Then youÓve got to come th back in January anyway. So itÓs just in case you guys get something done before the 15. And if you donÓt, then we would probably expect something in writing letting us know you guys werenÓt able to resolve it yet, please take it off the December agenda and weÓll address it in January. Does that make sense, and is that okay? SONG: That seems fair. 5 EXHIBIT A
