<br />ONO: I’m not an environmentalist but I thought things like this were supposed to be for the <br />muffling of sounds of the business area, and possibly to reduce the amount of pollution to the <br />neighboring area. So, if you’re looking at—I don’t know--what is this thing about lipstick <br />palms? Do they, are they bushy? Are they just— <br /> <br />COTTLE: Lipstick palms are not bushy. They’re pretty tall. They grow pretty straight up. <br />There actually is a picture of one existing lipstick palm right here. <br /> <br />ONO: I see. So, they, my understanding was the original proposal was that, we’re looking at, <br />the neighbors, should they—to muffle their or to make their residence more palatable, would <br />your proposal for lower shrubbery thing be, would be, should the area be developed, would it be <br />more conducive to business or to residence use? <br /> <br />COTTLE: Yeah, the landscaping that we’re proposing is landscaping along the rear and north <br />property line because we feel that those are the properties that would be most affected by this <br />use. And the type of landscaping would be opaque, meaning you cannot see through it from the <br />ground up to six feet in height. And then from six feet up to 20 feet, it can be intermittent <br />landscaping, meaning, you know, the lipstick palms which typically grow to at least 20 feet <br />would work in those areas. But, from the ground to six feet in height would be opaque. You <br />would not be able to see through it. So they would have to use some kind of, something bushy or <br />that would form a hedge. <br /> <br />ONO: Okay, one more question and I’m done. The possibilities of using the vacant land for <br />grazing would also mean fencing or, I mean, if you’re going to use the land for grazing you— <br /> <br />COTTLE: Well, Mr. Tavares is proposing to graze on the adjacent lot, not on this particular lot. <br /> <br />ONO: Yes— <br /> <br />COTTLE: --Yes— <br /> <br />ONO: --on the, so— <br /> <br />COTTLE: so— <br /> <br />ONO: --right now it looked—no improvement at all, there’s no— <br /> <br />COTTLE: --right— <br /> <br />ONO: fencing at all, so— <br /> <br />COTTLE: There is a fence between Mr. Tavares’ auto shop property and his grazing property <br />next door. I can, I can show it to you here. And he could probably speak a little bit more to that. <br />4 <br />EXHIBIT C <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
