AGUINALDO: Is that the one with the blue roof in the photo?
<br />SUZUKI: No, you don't see it here. No, just, it's hiding. Green yeah. Anyway, a, you know,
<br />most of the angles that I want to explain this project should not go forward. That day was that
<br />big earthquake day and since then, a lot of things went on, and that's one of the, my main
<br />concern is that unthinkable could happen, you know, lava. So, and also the topography of this
<br />land. Have you been there?
<br />CLARKSON: [Shook head indicating no.]
<br />SUZUKI: Okay. Aguiar, their place, half of their place is
<br />CLARKSON: Please speak into the mic.
<br />SUZUKI: Oh, going upslope, okay? I don't know how many feet, probably 20 feet. And, then,
<br />flat. Half of their property almost is flat and the rest of them going downslope. So, I'm sure
<br />Evans, I haven't looked, you know, I didn't walk into his property, but from what I see is going
<br />up like this and flat, and it's very small area if they are, you know, trying to do this project, and
<br />that's a big concern for me, too, and for both neighbors. Anyway, I think this whole thing, I
<br />didn't know what was going on, so I spoke to Lauri, and Mrs. Lauri said well this is how it
<br />happened, and she wrote her testimony, and I printed out and gave it to you guys.
<br />When I first came with that thing that this project, the notice from Cellco, I went to see
<br />Ms. Watanabe, and she mentioned well this, they accepted it application from Danette, Ms.
<br />Danette because she said the neighbors agreed to it. And, I think in the beginning she said
<br />twenty to thirty-five feet or something like that, and then all of a sudden it's a 155 feet. I don't
<br />think that's very dishonest, I mean honest way to approach. Her, Ms. Danette's approach is I
<br />wouldn't call it lie, but you know it's maybe just I don't know. Least, I'll say deceptive. And,
<br />they fell really bad about it, okay, and I wished they talked to me in the beginning but, you
<br />know, they are local people. They are very quiet usually, and they are very humble, and you
<br />know I understand how they feel, you know, toward authority, toward big corporations, they feel
<br />fearful, okay? So, anyway, I'm not against the cell tower. Okay, we need that. One of the thing
<br />that I found out when I was gathering the signature that some people have Verizon, they have no
<br />problem, you know, receiving signals. No problem. Even though the big trees are around them.
<br />So, I don't know why they need it right there in our face, you know?
<br />So, I think the location should be effective and beneficial to community, not being you know,
<br />repulsed. Okay, anyway, I hope they find a better location for everyone, and Ithat's it.
<br />CLARKSON: Thank you.
<br />SUZUKI: Thank you.
<br />CLARKSON: Are there any questions for the testifier from the Commission? No? Thank you.
<br />You may be seated. Is there anyone else that wishes to testify here today? If not, I'll ask for a
<br />motion to close public testimony.
