And we’ve reviewed also the conditions relative to the proposed change of zone, and the applicant found them to be acceptable. WOODWARD: Very good. Thank you, Mr. Fuke. Do we have any questions from Commissioners? Commissioner Iwashita. IWASHITA: Thank you, Mr. Chair. I’m not real clear on how the subdivision and the special permit -. Are they supposed to work together? FUKE: Oh, okay. IWASHITA: I don’t know -. How is that? FUKE: See, the special permit was for a 14.5-acre area, and that was for a bottling facility, a brewery and a distillery. And after the bottling facility was developed and he wanted to sell off that portion, he came in for the change of zone from Ag-20 to Ag-5 so that, and created this 5-acre parcel so that he could then sell off that portion. Now he has this remaining area which is about like 7 acres in size. And his plan is to also do the same, his business plan is the same way, you know, to co-develop the different components of the facility and be able to sell off portions of it. But the only way you can sell off, you have to have the land subdivided. You can’t get the subdivision without the change of zone.

FUKE: My understanding is the special permit applies to all 14.5 acres of land. IWASHITA: Yeah, but he doesn’t own all 14.5 acres of land. FUKE: But the new owner is aware of like all of the restrictions. Fortunately the restrictions attendant, you know, restrictions imposed by the special permit for the bottling facility, those conditions have all been complied with. If you look at the conditions for the special permit, it kind of like relate more to the visitors component and -. IWASHITA: Yeah, I see that. But I guess my, what I’m trying to understand is how, if you do this subdivision are we approving a special permit to allow all these different uses on, you know, in the end, on three different parcels of land? LEITHEAD TODD: Mr. Chair? WOODWARD: Madam Director, yes. LEITHEAD TODD: Since special permits run with the land it runs with the whole 14.9 acres. Irrespective of whether you subdivide it out the permit covers all 14.9 acres. I guess the question I had is -. Jeff, could you go back to the earlier map that shows the zoning of the other 4 EXHIBIT C
