HOUSEL: Eighty eight? <br />WALTER: I was not here at the time. They announced it I think in ’84 and actually <br />had wound down in 1988. I should point out that that property at one point was all Shipman <br />property. But in the mid-thirties Shipman Limited, actually my great grandfather, determined <br />that owning land on which a factory stood may not be something he wanted to do so he sold this <br />more, you know, the property that had the factory and supported the factory. He sold it to Puna <br />Sugar. <br />HOUSEL: And when was the school started on that road? <br />WALTER: I do not know. I don’t have the answer to that. <br />HOUSEL: Was it prior to Puna Sugar going out? <br />WALTER: No. <br />HOUSEL: Okay, okay. So the school came in later. <br />WALTER: Yeah, and the school originally was on the Puna side of Milo Street. <br />Subsequent to that they have a high school on the Hilo side of that. And as a result of that where <br />you had no need for traffic across Milo you suddenly have need for traffic across Milo. <br />HOUSEL: Thank you. <br />WATANABE: Thank you. Yes, Mr. Domingo. <br />DOMINGO: So I gather that if they were entertaining a special permit on an <br />agricultural parcel then you would not be against it? <br />WALTER: If they were to request a special use permit for the operation of their <br />rainwater facility alone, then that’s fine with us. <br />DOMINGO: And the specific reasons for that is? <br />WALTER: When they go for ML-1A, it opens up that property, whatever they may <br />say. And their intentions, I don’t question their intentions. You know, I think that’s what their <br />plan is and that’s fine. But when you give this zoning I can’t tell you whether they might flip the <br />property in six months or a year or three years, or they may change their business plan. The <br />point of it is is that zoning now allows all these other uses, many of which will generate heavy <br />traffic. That’s where we have the problem, Mr. Domingo. <br />DOMINGO: Okay, thank you. <br />WATANABE: No further questions on this? You may be seated. And I’m going to <br />provide, like I indicated earlier, we intend to continue this.We were kind of hoping that, well, or <br /> EXHIBIT C <br />15 <br /> <br />
