the shopping center on that side. But, yes, this is a very tight situation with this development. And that’s why in my review I -. By the way, I had to draft up my own illustration of where, to scale, of where those entrances are to try to figure out whether I thought there was going to be any feasibility at all of this working out. And that’s why I recommended a traffic circulation plan that showed all of this on one plan where you also considered what the necessary length of turn lanes and so forth and whether they could fit within the area. And this is definitely going to take some in-depth consideration for traffic movements and whether such movements can be made across two lanes of traffic without a signal. And it does require additional sight distance for making those additional in- width movements. So, yes, those things are taken into consideration, but it has to be something that the consultant presents in depth. And that’s why you either do it before this thing gets approved, in which case Department of Public Works has a chance to review that and vet that or -. That’s why we put it in as a condition of approval, and the Planning Director did insert it as a condition. FUKE: That’s your proposed, that’s the Director’s proposed Condition H, which basically reads that the applicant shall submit a multi-modal road and traffic circulation plan prepared by a licensed civil engineer prior to final plan approval. Is that the one? EMLER: Yeah. GIFFIN: Okay. Sid, are you pau, or did you want to say anything else? FUKE: Basically I’m done. I just got -. The reason why -. I think that Ki’s comments are very pertinent and -. GIFFIN: Yeah, I do, too. FUKE: The community’s, too. So I just wanted to, you know, have placed on the record that there is an opportunity that when, you know, what was shown there is all in concept, and so obviously, prior to their finalizing the plans, a lot of these additional technical studies would have to be done and vetted by the Department of Public Works, and Public Works in turn will take into account all of the existing driveways before sanctioning where would be the most appropriate location for a driveway on Paniolo Avenue would be. GIFFIN: Okay. Commissioners, any questions of Mr. Fuke? Lani. BOWMAN: I do. Just a quick question. You mentioned that the landowners discussed about the park above, they had land above the Stables. FUKE: Yes. BOWMAN: Would be, you know – oops, now where is the picture, yeah – so -. FUKE: Yeah, you can see the Stables. And so above of the, they own properties on the mauka side of that. BOWMAN: Okay, so mauka. And, you probably don’t know, but, is that like a, is that a roadway that runs right next to the place where the people live? What is, yeah, what is that? Is it a roadway? PUBLIC: Utility. Fire break. 19 EXHIBIT A
