Taniguchi: May I have a motion to approve or deny Application No. 17-25? <br />Nahale-a: So move, pending final inspection. <br />Greenwell: Second. <br />Ms. Nahale-a moved to approve Application No. 17-25, Island <br />Hops Taproom LLC, dba Island Hops Taproom, for an original <br />Dispenser Beer and Wine liquor license, Category B1, located at <br />82-6167 Mamalahoa Highway, Captain Cook, Hawaii, <br />TMK: 8-2-015:017, pending final inspection; seconded by <br />Mr. Greenwell. <br />Taniguchi: Moved and seconded. Discussion? <br />Lopez: I know we're probably outside our kuleana, but there's enough concern with the <br />portables; he hasn't gotten...he suspects that there's going to be an issue. The <br />documentation about the grandfathering may be an issue. I'd just like it to go on record <br />that if we approve this, we know that it may not come to fruition. Thank you. <br />Taniguchi: Maybe we can ask our Corp. Counsel, if we approve it, they still have to go <br />through with the Planning Department... <br />Roberts: I'm currently working with the Planning Department on a couple of different <br />things right now. <br />Taniguchi: So, if we approve the license and they don't meet all the requirements, they <br />cannot open anything, right? <br />Gonzalez: Mr. Chairperson, that is correct. They are currently working with the <br />Planning Department in Kona to get plan approval to address the issues that fall within <br />the Planning Department jurisdiction. For the bathroom issue, it falls within the purview <br />of the State Department of Health, whether it's a requirement to have male and female <br />bathrooms within so many feet of the premises or whether it's a wastewater issue <br />because the employee bathrooms don't have the capacity to handle the amount of usage <br />for the public. But, our approval for a liquor license will still be subject to them complying <br />with other government approvals. <br />Taniguchi: That clears it up for most of our questions. The parking issue would be the <br />same. Mr. Greenwell? <br />Greenwell: For the record, the clarification that Brandon made, everybody should <br />understand that we're approving this with reservations...subject to approval... <br />Taniguchi: Yes, because if they don't meet all of those requirements, then it's not going <br />to go through anyway. <br />Roberts: Correct, yes. <br />May 3, 2018 - LIQUOR COMMISSION MINUTES 13 <br />
