to allow consideration for projects like this, which represent an opportunity to help address much <br />needed infrastructure. We understand that, you know, the Director’s hands are tied, you know, the <br />roles and responsibility of the Director, as well as the Planning Commission, is to advise the Mayor <br />and the County Council; so, yes, you’ve got to follow the law, but I think that in so doing the <br />Commission and the Director are, you know, given the responsibility to let decision makers know <br />that there is some problems here or maybe you ought to take a look at this whatever, you know. So <br />that’s kind of like our position. <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Thank you, Mr. Fuke. Commissioner Beaudet, do you have any comments since you <br />made the motion? Or anyone else? <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Well, if there is no further discussion, then I think it prudent that I withdraw my <br />recommendation in favor of the applicant, and that we move for another motion. <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Okay. The second? <br /> <br />WHITTEMORE: I withdraw my second. <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Okay, and Commissioner Whittemore withdraws his second for the motion. May I <br />entertain a new motion? <br /> <br />HICKCOX: I don’t know if I’m going to say this right, but please help me. In reference to 327 <br />Kona LLC, change of zone application, REZ 10-134 (sic), I recommend that, not recommend, I <br />move that we put forth an unfavorable recommendation in reference to the application and also to <br />include Mr. Fuke’s language in the request of having this application forwarded to the Corporation <br />Counsel, I’m sorry, the County Council, requesting that the concerns in reference to the ability to <br />implement language in the Kona Community Development Plan be re-looked at so that it may be <br />more flexible to the point of allowing rezonings to go through, however, also taking into account <br />means of maybe creating a collaborative kind of plan with developers and the government to move <br />forward with the infrastructure. Is that long enough or what? <br /> <br />MECKLENBURG: Commissioners, are you clear on the motion? So the motion is to forward an <br />unfavorable recommendation but to, I guess, to have staff draft a communication to the County <br />Council, incorporating Mr. Fuke’s concerns that were raised and discussed today. Is that correct? <br /> <br />HICKCOX: Correct. <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Do I hear a second? <br /> <br />IOKEPA: Yeah, I’ll second. Second. <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Thank you. Commissioner Iokepa, second. Any discussion? <br /> <br />ARAI: Madam Chair? <br /> <br />BOWMAN: Yes, Mr. Arai. <br /> <br />11 <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
