WATANABE: Yeah, so, shall we get some input from the intervenor what he wants to see <br />occur? <br />ALAMEDA: Okay. That’s fine. Mr. Farwell? <br />FARWELL: Okay, you are asking me specifically what? <br />WATANABE: I’m asking you whether you would like to hear it today, would like to hear <br />it later, or you prefer to hear it today in a hearing in front of this Commission and -. <br />FARWELL: Yes. I would like this over with one way or another. <br />WATANABE: Okay, okay. <br />ALAMEDA: Mr. Director, do you have any thoughts on this? <br />YUEN: Just that you ought to offer the same opportunity for comment to the <br />applicant, and that I also want to say that it is not necessary -, it’s not required that the parties <br />have attorneys; sometimes they choose to have attorneys.

Any thoughts on what you are hearing? <br />MARTINAGE: Basically I’m in support of, as I said before, we do not have a problem <br />with agriculture and developing business and growing. Brad has all the rights to conduct his <br />property as he fits within the agriculture, and I only ask that I would have the same aspect for the <br />future so. <br />ALAMEDA: Are you okay with us hearing this now? Or later? <br />MARTINAGE: I’m okay, yeah. <br />ALAMEDA: Okay. Fellow Commissioners, are you okay with hearing this now? <br />That’s actually a bigger question, yeah? Commissioner Graham? <br />GRAHAM: In general I’m okay with hearing this now, and certainly I’m in favor of us <br />hearing this rather than going out to an outside party. But the only thing I keep in mind is we do <br />have a large scale project before us today, I think it is the fifth item on our agenda, and I don’t <br /> EXHIBIT A <br />14 <br /> <br />
