ISHIBASHI: Thank you. KERN: Any other questions? I have a quick question. The area that is identified in the CDP for the commercial village center or the neighborhood village center, are those larger parcels or are those comprised of the 14,000 square feet, in those sized parcels? COTTLE: The -. KERN: The blue? COTTLE: One outlined in blue -. KERN: Yes. COTTLE: That the Ainaloa Association identified, that’s actually one large parcel owned by the Association. KERN: Thank you. Any other questions? Seeing none, thank you, Maija. Can I get the applicant or their representative to please come forward. Good morning. HEGARTY: Good morning. KERN: I’ll ask you to use your microphone. And just give me your name and address or area that you live and -. HEGARTY: My name is John Hegarty. I live on the edge of Ainaloa Boulevard. I also own the property on the right-hand side of Ainaloa across from the Longhouse, which happens to be my property also. Okay. KERN: And I’m going to swear you in real quick. Could you raise your right hand for me. Do you swear to tell the truth today before the Windward Planning Commission? HEGARTY: Yes, I do. KERN: And have already? HEGARTY: Yes. KERN: Okay, great. Have you received the background report and recommendation -? HEGARTY: I have. KERN: From the Planning Department? HEGARTY: I have. KERN: Okay. Are there any comments you’d like to make at this time? HEGARTY: Yes. In some, well, I’ll keep it small, the left-hand boundary of my property as you’re facing from Ainaloa Boulevard is Tiki Garden which is, there’s only an imaginary line separating me. What’s separating me from the Ainaloa Association or the area is the asphalt road. My hard luck is it seems that I’ve fallen to the Orchidland. That’s the excuse that the Planning Department is using that they already have a village center. I think what is not being addressed here is that the Orchidland Village Center, as the crow flies, is about 2 miles. 3 EXHIBIT A
