basically ensures that their due process through this application is, one, being met. But they’re <br />providing the appropriate legal counsel for them to get through this process. <br /> <br />So going forward, our office will continue to represent CBESS which is the nonprofit at the <br />direction of CBESS. Just like Celia Shen and other consultants that have been on the project, <br />they have been hired by the nonprofit and are paid through that process. To dovetail that in, the <br />direct lease is issued to Connections, the school, the State Agency. The Special Permit applicant <br />are co-applicants, Connections Charter School and CBESS the nonprofit. So the School will <br />have the direct lease. The School and the nonprofit will hold the regulatory permit to move this <br />project forward. <br /> <br />MORRIS: Correct. And so with respect to any subsequent proceedings, following the <br />Commission’s action, our office will be representing Connections with respect to the special <br />permit application. <br /> <br />AU: Okay. So, Ms. Shen, did you want to say something? <br /> <br />SHEN: I’d just like to speak a little -. <br /> <br />AU: Can you please start -. <br /> <br />SHEN: I’m sorry. <br /> <br />AU: State your name, where you reside, and speak into the microphone. <br /> <br />SHEN: Celia Shen and I am, I reside in Honolulu. You know, I’d just like to elaborate a little <br />bit on what Sue had previously spoken about before regarding the water supply to the property. <br />As you all know, water is available to the property, although the supply is limited. Department <br />of Water Supply has stated that there is a 4200 gallon per day allotment to that property. And so <br />while at this point we are not clear whether that can support the entire project, we do know that <br />that will support a certain level of development. And as requested by the Planning Commission <br />at the previous hearing a preliminary water usage report was prepared, the objective of which <br />was not to provide a precise estimate of water usage but to just kind of generally give a <br />broadbrushed indication of what the potable water usage might be for the project. <br /> <br />You know, at this stage those estimates are premature. There is further investigation that does <br />need to occur which will happen if the special permit gets approved. The engineers and <br />designers will look more specifically at water usage, how water usage, potable and nonpotable, <br />can be supplied to the project, at which time the estimates will be reworked and submitted to the <br />Department of Water Supply for approval. And given that and knowing that the community does <br />have concerns about water supply to the property, and as it was stated, you know, we are <br />recommending that the condition relative to water supply be revised to state specifically that the <br />property will not be developed beyond that which can be supported by that 4200 gallons until <br />additional potable water can be sourced for the project. And what that level of development is <br />will be determined in that, you know, future investigation. You know they can determine the <br /> 8 ATTACHMENT C <br /> <br /> <br />
