project passed, and work with the community. As far as that, as far as the road, there's not much we can do about it as far as time. You know, the developer wants to start the job right way; and for us to put a condition for them to do that road prior, this project would just go on forever. So I just wanted to make that comment. KERN: Yeah, I think I am going to comment on that too. I think it makes sense. From what I’ve heard, I mean, it’s really a matter of grading, it’s a matter of grub work, it’s a matter of having the machines or the bulldozers, the excavators, the dump trucks to take care of both the road infrastructure improvements as well as the site infrastructure improvements which might have fill being run back and forth, you know, cut off from the Kaumana Drive. It might need to go on the lot. So I see it making sense to opening it up as a baseyard. I would hope that it would just be the grading and grubbing side of it, prepping for the pads and everything, prior to actually pouring slabs and whatnot until the actual road improvements were done. Obviously that’s a construction scheduling issue. But to me it does make sense to have the machinery there and to do it in that way. And I just pray that you folks prioritize the road. Commissioner Au? AU: Yeah. You know, and I feel very confident that the applicant from other facilities that were built in the United States, you know, I mean you have the experience. So I’m sure you’re going to keep the public safety in mind going through this process. KERN: Any other discussion? Seeing none, Maija, take the vote. COTTLE: Thank you, Mr. Chair.
