Taniguchi: Commissioners, any questions? <br /> <br />Hughes: What are they asking for? <br /> <br />Gonzalez: They’re asking for a temporary increase in the premises. Essentially, if <br />you’re familiar with the location of Umeke’s at Kuakini Center, off of the street within the <br />parking lot area, they did a new construction and re-did the parking lot. Between the <br />parking lot for the Kuakini Center and Umeke’s back door there is a large concrete area <br />that they want to be able to have picnic tables with shade coverings. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Should I re-read that? We read it into the record already, but should I re- <br />read that? <br /> <br />Gonzalez: If you read it earlier I don’t think you have to, Mr. Chair. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Okay. Any other questions? I have a question. I think we brought it up at <br />the last public hearing, but I’m kind of familiar with that area. Where the sidewalk is at <br />the end of the building, you have a walkway that’s open. Are they going to block it? <br /> <br />Gonzalez: Are you talking about the walkway that’s closer to the street? <br /> <br />Taniguchi: (referring to the report) In the second picture on the right. <br /> <br />Gonzalez: You’re referring to page two of the report? <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Yes. Yes. Because from there, you can just walk right in, right? <br /> <br />Gonzalez: If you walk towards the street side, you have to walk around the building to <br />walk into the premises. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: From the street, if you come in this way, if this whole area is a licensed <br />premises, do they have to or are they intending to block it off or just leave it open? <br /> <br />Gonzalez: There is a hedge between the street and their premises along the streetside, <br />and there’s a railing between the driveway and this elevated concrete area. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Unless they put the hedge in later. We had to park outside once and we just <br />came right in. That’s the question I had because it looks pretty open. <br /> <br />Gonzalez: Okay. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Commissioners, any other questions? <br /> <br /> There were no other questions from the Commissioners. <br /> <br />Taniguchi: Call for the question. I’m sorry, did we have any record of protests? <br /> <br /> <br />July 5, 2018 – LIQUOR COMMISSION MINUTES 7 <br /> <br /> <br />
