ALAMEDA:No problem. Commissioner Graham, continue. GRAHAM:Yeah, actually, even though we have problem with the numbering the photos are very useful so thank you for bringing them. So I want to focus on photo 6, 7 and 8 right now. So, if somebodys on a wheelchair and theyre out in the middle of the grass in front of the Kona Inn and they go north like towards the King Kam theyre going to come up to that tight little point there, which is photo 6 right? LIM:Thats correct. GRAHAM:And then the ADA compatible wheelchair access is going to allow them to traverse around the corner, over and around the corner of that building and then theyre going to come, come into photo 7 right around the corner there right? LIM:Thatscorrect. GRAHAM:Good.Andtheninphoto7alsothatswhereyouregoingtobebuilding the lanai out into those 4 palm trees, which youre going to leave. LIM:Thats correct. GRAHAM:Okay. And then when I look at photo 8, it looks like once youre kind of out in front of those 4 palm trees youre looking further to the north. LIM:Thats correct. GRAHAM:And, all right, so I got all that straight. Now the point of the question kind of is if you do come out on the big lawn in front and you go around the corner and you do come into this area do you do that, just to be there or is there some kind of lateral access further to the north from the end of picture 8 that youre really facilitating by you know making that ramp available? LIM:Part of our requirements on the SMA minor permit is to submit a revised public access plan, which will require us to show the mauka-makai and lateral accesses. And all were going to be doing is running the lateral access all the way to the north side of the property which is shown there in picture number 8 and after that its up to the next property owner to pick up. GRAHAM:So a person in a wheelchair wouldnt be coming in picture number 8 in front of your lanai to go anywhere else, hes just coming there because hed like to have access to that area perhaps huh? LIM:Thats correct. I think a lot of people just dont know that its there and I think once its improved then itd be much more attractive to open up to the public. GRAHAM:All right, thank you.
