KAY: The application refers to that as the Kona Chinese Cemetery. And it’s difficult to tell from <br />the aerial photography whether or not there are any grave sites there. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Okay. Maybe the applicant can clarify that. I’m just, I’m just interested because it <br />says Chinese Cemetery on it and I don’t recall there being a cemetery there. <br /> <br />NOBRIGA: Bobby, there is a church facility up there, and I believe there is a small cemetery, but <br />somehow I believe it’s affiliated with Moku‘aikaua Church. Off of that East Honalo Road that you <br />speak of, up on the hill there, it is a church property. <br /> <br />COMMAND: Because if you follow that property up, you’ll come out to where Keauhou Store is, <br />and there is a Chinese Cemetery there, right? <br /> <br />NOBRIGA: In Keauhou Mauka the Chinese Cemetery is next to Keauhou Store, yes. But that is a <br />good mile away from this. <br /> <br />COMMAND: Right. I’m just curious because it does say Chinese Cemetery on it. <br /> <br />NOBRIGA: I don’t know about that being a Chinese Cemetery, but I do know that there is one in <br />there that I do believe is associated with Moku‘aikaua. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Any other comments or questions? Thank you. With that, will the applicant please <br />come forward? Will you all please raise your right hands? Do you swear or affirm to tell the truth <br />on this matter now before the Leeward Planning Commission? <br /> <br />APPLICANTS: I do. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: If you could start with an introduction of yourself. And please speak into the mike <br />when you do that. <br /> <br />TRIANTOS: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, my name is Robert Triantos. I’m the <br />attorney for the King of Kings Congregational Church. To my left is Dr. Henry Boshard who, as <br />Commissioner Nobriga says, will probably be able to answer the question that she had. And to my <br />right is Jack Parazette; he is the architect for the project. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Thank you. Did you receive the Planning Director’s background report and <br />recommendation report? <br /> <br />TRIANTOS: We did. Thank you. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: Do you agree with the recommendations and the conditions? <br /> <br />TRIANTOS: We do as stated, no amendments or anything like that. <br /> <br />BEAUDET: If you could please proceed with your presentation. <br /> <br />TRIANTOS: I, as staff said, the Church is looking to a place to church in the area next to the <br />existing, what would you want to call it, park area. Just to answer maybe some of the questions <br />Commissioners brought up earlier, we do not know of any burials in the Chinese Cemetery; we <br />3 <br />EXHIBIT B <br /> <br />
