there, walk through there, try to enjoy it. And, also, that’s devaluing the property right there, a bunch of concrete on top of that beautiful spot that brings it down. And I hope through the meeting here, the one in couple months ago, ‘O‘oma, that the Land Use Commission can see that the heart of the people is against building everywhere and taking our places. Cause when they’re gone there’s nothing. And now people say they love Hawai‘i but they want to kill it, so it doesn’t really make sense, so if we can remember what they said. And if the building does continue, we just have to get people that will stop that eventually. And mahalo for your time. HOUSEL: Thank you for your testimony. I’d like to make a note that I’ve received a petition signed by 45 people that says basically “I’ve seen horrendous growth on this island in the past ten years. We do not have the roads to support more condos or cars. We need bigger and better roads instead of wrecking the beaches. Conserve the beaches and land.” And it says on the top “Save Lyman’s Beach.” So this is representing working people in Kona. And so I’ll pass this on to the other Commissioners for their review. GONZALEZ: They got it already. HOUSEL: Oh, you did. Okay, you’ve got it already. Okay. Anyone else who came in late, if you’d like to testify, please sign up with Noriko. We have a few more people to testify. Rebecca Villegas, would you like to come forward? Did Eric Eisenherdt come up? And Sam -? PUBLIC: No. HOUSEL: Okay. And did we do Janet Hunter? GONZALEZ: She didn’t come up – but you called her name. HOUSEL: Okay, so is there anyone else who would like to testify today? GONZALEZ: We’ve got plenty more. HOUSEL: Oh, okay. We got a few more. Okay. Shannon Rudolph, would you like to come forward? And Diane Corcoran? Okay. GONZALEZ: Sam, is Sam Keanaaina Jr. still here? PUBLIC: No. HOUSEL: Okay. I guess we’ll proceed. Could you please, each of you, pick up a microphone? You can share that one, that’s fine. Okay, would you raise your right hand? Okay, do you swear or affirm to tell the truth on this matter now before the Leeward Planning Commission today? TESTIFIERS: I do. HOUSEL: Thank you. We’ll start on your far right. If you’d like to give your name and address. CORCORAN: Good morning. My name is Diane Corcoran and I live here in Kona. And I did testify yesterday, and I think I came on very angry, and I want to let you know right away none of that was aimed at you. I think I, because I was not talking to the people planning this development 8 EXHIBIT E
