<br />Regarding the drainage issues, yes, that does have a major impact on this property. The friability <br />(phonetic), the strata is very sensitive there; and I did see that in the Kinoole Street improvements, that <br />Federal Project #STP 100-059. And I want to thank the County, the Engineering, the Planning and the <br />Traffic for all their help to remediate, and taking care of the issues that did arise that were really not <br />the, anyone’s fault. It’s just, it’s what had happened with the grubbing of the said areas. And I feel <br />that there is not enough, I feel that area does not perk well. Drywell pits may not be enough to contain <br />the amount of rainfall that could, and flooding that could happen in times of heavy rainfall. We have <br />been in a drought the last six or seven years, we’re beginning to come back into our natural weather <br />pattern. <br /> <br />The other thing, too, I’m not sure if the septic systems, those could be compromised. In times of <br />flooding that could impact the health and safety of the surrounding neighbors. And -. <br /> <br />KERN: I’ll ask you to please summarize. That’s the three minutes. <br /> <br />COOPER: Okay. My other point is, you know, abolishing of that dilapidated structure. Well, one <br />other thing on the drainage they were stating a drywell on the street -. <br /> <br />KERN: Fifteen more seconds in summarization. <br /> <br />COOPER: Okay. I feel that this development has too much density for the surrounding neighborhood. <br />And the noise and nuisance cannot be buffered by landscape. It’s too much, and I am in agreement <br />th <br />also with the County of Hawaii’s letter to you on the 7 in regards to that. I just feel it’s too dense of <br />a, and also it’s 14 3-bedroom apartments. So that’s 42 residents. <br /> <br />KERN: Okay. <br /> <br />COOPER: Thank you so much for your time. -. <br /> <br />KERN: Thank you. Are there any questions for the testifier? Seeing none, thank you. You may have <br />a seat. <br /> <br />COOPER: Thank you. <br /> <br />KERN: Well, I think we’ve done all we need to do that far. So we’re willing to entertain a motion, <br />anyone? <br /> <br />AU: I -. <br /> <br />KERN: Commissioner Au, do you -? <br /> <br />AU: I have a question for the applicant. <br /> <br />KERN: Yeah. Can you please come forward, applicant, representative. <br /> <br />7 <br /> EXHIBIT A <br /> <br /> <br />
