Essentially you have to establish that indeed the individual that <br /> owns it is the individual that's in front of you and then the water <br /> service goes to them as the property owner. Anything else beyond <br /> that as I understand it from what you told us is not the <br /> department's responsibility. <br /> Ms. Villanueva: Correct. <br /> Mr. Adams: So I'm a little confused when you then went on further in your <br /> statement to us about talking about who owned the land and Mr. <br /> Chang. I'm not sure what the relevance of that was. Can you tell <br /> me why you went into that? <br /> Ms. Villanueva: Yes. I went into that because of the fact that we had to do the <br /> actual survey of the land because each water service is allocated to <br /> a particular TMK. So when we pulled up both....that property and <br /> looked at other surrounding properties. We looked at the current <br /> services that were on that street and apparently in due process of <br /> that seeing that Joe Chang owned parcel twenty-one was not <br /> correct. He did not own that parcel. So in reality when he came <br /> back in 2004 and signed for the water meter he actually signed for <br /> a water meter that did not belong to the parcel he was leasing. <br /> Mr. Adams: And then so that, when that was allowed to happen that was just... <br /> that was an administrative error is what you would say. <br /> Ms. Villanueva: Well basically when he came in, he gave us that tax map key <br /> which was parcel twenty-one. <br /> Mr. Adams: Okay. <br /> Ms. Villanueva: Yes. <br /> Mr. Adams: Mr. Santiago as you hear the statement from Ms. Villanueva and <br /> the explanation about it not being a discontinuation of your water <br /> service,but a transfer to a current property owner. Does that <br /> change your view of what has happened here? <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Sorry we can't hear you sir. Can you please turn your mic on? <br /> Ms. Sweeney: Sorry Chair. <br /> Mr. Santiago: Tanya said she personally processed the application for Joe Chang <br /> and it was for that particular lot. Now she's trying to say that she <br /> did not turn the water off, they just transferred the water. Hello my <br /> 18 <br />
