MS. POINDEXTER: In a round about way; the lawyers answer. MR. MIDDLESWORTH: It sounds like we have to deal with this in our Final Report, and explain why we did what we did. CHR. SIRACUSA: Exactly; and we have to do that with all of our decisions, anyway. Thank goodness we have good transcripts that we can go back and refer to. Okay, there is Pahoa, and we can see where this one shows the boundary on Pahoa Village Road. The bypass is in 4, and the communities in District 5 have access to that part of Pahoa, which includes the High School, the Community Center, which are both polling places. Now, let's go up and see how this handles Kea`au. Mike, you said you have a problem with this little dingle dangle, or no problem with the dingle dangle? MR. MIDDLESWORTH: No, I don't have a problem with this. The problem I had was between District 2 and 3, not the Kea` au business. What this does is essentially put the Village portion of Kea` au into 3, which is what Patrick and I have been talking about. CHR. SIRACUSA: So, Patrick, you are saying that you like it like this, or do you feel that that little dingle dangle has a contiguity problem? MR. KAHAWAIOLA`A: Well, it's a contiguity problem only because the people there are asking for it, along with the landowner. So that's my only -- -It's not contiguity - -- CHR. SIRACUSA: Compactness, I meant compactness. MR. KAHAWAIOLA`A: There is one road going in anyways, so - -- CHR. SIRACUSA: I am concerned about the road connectivity thing here. I do not believe that red line that divides the 75, 22, 45, and separates those out; I do not believe that line represents a street. MR. MIDDLESWORTH: It's Highway 11. CHR. SIRACUSA: You can go down to the traffic light and then you can take a left and go around the school to - -- Right, and I'm trying to figure out how to get to these lots in District 4. Where is the road that gets to them without leaving the district? Oh, okay, those are uninhabited, so that's why they are a different color. If we took up the right hand side of the bypass, and put it into 4; there are no numbers in there, but I think it would make it a little more - -- MR. MIDDLESWORTH: You can't do that because this is a census block from here up to here. CHR. SIRACUSA: Oh, that is all one census block? Oh, that is one of the weird ones. 23
