number of students that can be supported and what facilities will be serviced by that DWS supply <br />potable water. <br /> <br />S. LEE LOY: Mr. Au, if I may, Celia’s office did present those preliminary calculations to the <br />th <br />Department of Water Supply in December, no, I’m sorry, November, the week of the 19. We <br />followed up with the Department of Water Supply; and the individual assigned to review the <br />water calculations has moved on from the Department, so they are in the process of assigning <br />another individual from the Department of Water Supply to get caught up with the special permit <br />application and evaluate the water calculations that we presented. Again, it has been our position <br />that they are relatively premature. There is a level of engineering that has to occur and we’re just <br />not at that stage yet. But in an effort to address the concerns of the Commission and some of <br />what we’re hearing from the community, we put together these broadbrushed water calculations, <br />but beside that insert the condition that we’re not going to develop beyond the amount of water <br />there until such time we can get another source, whether it’s developing more water, or well. <br />Those options are still out there. So, again, you know, we’re trying to provide those assurances <br />that the applicant is working to address the concerns of the community and this Commission. <br /> <br />AU: Okay. Commissioner Ono? <br /> <br />ONO: Yes, I have a question, and it’s only because Brilhante came in at the earlier hearing. <br />And I realize that we have not received the application. But my concern is should that <br />development proposal come in, will they be tapping the same water supply? Will they be <br />developing their own? <br /> <br />S. LEE LOY: I don’t want to go too far because that is another property owner. <br /> <br />LEITHEAD TODD: Perhaps I could say that the way DWS works, Water Supply, is they give <br />you a certain amount of commitment; and that’s yours. So if somebody comes in with a <br />subsequent subdivision, they can’t tap into the 4200 that’s already allocated for Connections. <br />They either have to have separate water commitments from the Water Supply or they have to <br />somehow find water. They may in fact already have certain commitments. Because the way a <br />lot of people do it, if you know you’re going to develop, sometimes you prepay. And then, of <br />course, it may depend on, at the time they come in whether DWS has increased the amount of <br />water available and what the systems are in place. But they don’t get, this is a commitment to <br />them. They don’t get an additional over 4200. And Mr. Brilhante can’t get their 4200. <br /> <br />ONO: Thank you. <br /> <br />S. LEE LOY: We can’t swap off water units. It’s allocated to the parcel. <br /> <br />AU: Question for Ms. Morris. So charter schools are, they’re affiliated with nonprofits, right? <br />And from what I understand the nonprofits pay for their facilities because the State doesn’t give <br />money to charter schools for facilities. Is that correct? <br /> <br /> 9 ATTACHMENT C <br /> <br /> <br />
