<br />And this is a view of the lower parking area. The property does dip down quite a bit from the <br />highway, and there’s parking provided in the front as well as in the back. Here’s the parking <br />area in the back, and then there’s two stalls provided underneath the building in the back. <br /> <br />The Planning Director is recommending approval of the Special Permit with conditions, and <br />because this permit is so old, we’ve refreshed a lot of the conditions with current requirements <br />like upgrading cesspool to a septic system, and conditions like that. We also did receive a letter, <br />since you received your Background and Recommendation, from the State Historic Preservation <br />Division. They’re basically saying that no historic properties will be affected by the proposed <br />use. And we also received three letters of support or emails of support from Easter Keil, Merrily <br />Wolf, and Piilani Erbe, and you should have those in your folders. Are there any questions? <br /> <br />GONZALES: Commissioners, any questions for staff? <br /> <br />ONO: Question. <br /> <br />GONZALES: Yes sir. <br /> <br />ONO: I’m not sure, but in the past, it would be our approval means that the individual has the <br />permission to pursue the expansion of the kitchen area with the Department of Health. I mean, I <br />thought there was a relationship in terms of you know providing your preparation of food, you <br />need another department’s approval? <br /> <br />COTTLE: Yes, so if the Commission does approve the amendment and allows the food <br />preparation on site, the applicant will need to go to Department of Health and get what’s called a <br />food establishment permit, and then the inspector comes out and verifies that the kitchen meets <br />all the Department of Health requirements for the preparation of food served to the public. <br /> <br />ONO: So they would show that to the Planning Department, that it’s been approved? <br /> <br />COTTLE: They would, that’s, that’s required, it’s a State law, so they have to do it regardless of <br />whether we tell them to or not. <br /> <br />ONO: No, no. I, I--do we have evidence that they did pursue that? <br /> <br />COTTLE: The Planning Department doesn’t really monitor— <br /> <br />ONO: --oh, it doesn’t— <br /> <br />COTTLE: --conditions of or regulatory requirements of other agencies like DOT or Department <br />of Health. <br /> <br />ONO: Thank you. <br /> <br />3 <br />EXHIBIT B <br /> <br /> <br />
