06:43BILL WHO DID THE AMENDMENTS TO

06:45IT.

06:45HOWEVER, WE STILL DO OBJECT TO

06:47IT.

06:49I WOULD LIKE TO STRESS SOME OF

06:51THE CHANGES THAT WE HAVE MADE

06:52TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION ABOUT

06:53WHY THIS AROSE AND HOW WE ARE

06:56GOING TO BE MOVING FORWARD.

06:57SO FIRST OF ALL, WE HAD A

07:00OUTDOOR COURT CONTRACT THAT WE

07:01WERE USING FOR LITTLE OVER TEN

07:04YEARS.

07:05TO RECONSTRUCT AND RESEAL

07:07OUTDOOR COURTS AND WE DID NE

07:08NEARLY 700 OUTDOOR CAN COURT

07:11RECONSTRUCTION OR RESEALING

07:13OVER A PROBABLY ABOUT A 12

07:14YEAR PERIOD.

07:16ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO, WE WERE

07:17TOLD THAT THAT CONTRACT DID

07:19NOT COVER RECONSTRUCTION.

07:21ONLY RESEALING.

07:22BASICALLY PUTTING THE GOO

07:24SURFACE TO SMOOTH OUT THE

07:25COURT AND REPAINTING IT.

07:27SO WE HAD TO STOP THE

07:28RECONSTRUCTION WHICH WHERE YOU

07:30CLAW THE TOP OFF OF THE COURT.

07:33YOU CAN TAKE OFF MAYBE QUARTER

07:35INCH THE AS FAULT CONCRETE AND

07:37RELAY IT OR YOU CAN GO DOWN TO

07:39THE BASE COURSE, RECOMPACT THE

07:42BASE COURSE, LEVEL IT OUT AND

07:44THEN RECORE THE ENTIRE CORD.

07:44THAT WAS THE WORK THAT WE HAD

07:45TO STOP.

07:45ASPHALT CONCRETE YRN CONTINUE W

07:49THE REDE SEALING CREATE NEW

07:53CONTRACT COURT.

07:53TAKEN 3 YEARS TO GET TO THIS

07:54POINT PURCHASING HAS PUT IT

07:56OUT FOR BID.

07:57NOTIFIED ABOUT TEN DIFFERENT

07:58VENDORS THAT THEY CAN PUT

08:00THEIR NAME ON IT AND THOSE

08:01VENDORS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO

08:02GO THROUGH THE QUALIFICATIONS

08:03WITH PURCHASING, ONCE THAT IS

08:05COMPLETED, WE WILL BE ABLE TO

08:07REUSE THAT CONTRACT.

08:09I TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT

08:11TAKING US 3 YEARS TO GET TO

08:12THIS POINT.

08:13WE HAVE MADE SOME CHANGES

08:15WITHIN OUR DEPARTMENT SO THAT

08:16THAT IS NOT REPEAT. WE'VE

08:18MOVER THE CONSTRUCTION TYPE

08:20CONTRACTS OUT OF THE PARKS

08:22MAINTENANCE AND RECREATION

08:23DIVISION.

08:25WE HAVE SET UP MAINTENANCE

08:26SUPPORT SERVICE TO BE ITS OWN

08:27DIVISION AND WE COMPLETED IS

08:28THAT REORGANIZATION.

08:31THEY ARE NOW MANAGING THE

08:33WRITING TO GET THE SCOPE OF

08:35THOSE TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION

08:36CONTRACTS.

08:37SIMILARLY, PURCHASING HAS

08:39MOVED US TO SECTION THAT IS

08:41USED TO HANDLING CONSTRUCTION

08:43CONTRACTS.

08:44SO WE ARE NOW WITH THE SECTION

08:45THAT ALSO DOES THE CIVIL

08:48DIVISION FOR THE FACILITIES

08:49DIVISION AND WE'RE ALREADY S

08:50SEEING A CHANGE IN THOSE TYPES

08:53OF CONTRACTS SO WE DON'T THINK

08:56THAT'S GOING TO BE REPEATED.

08:57QUESTION ARE ASKING THAT YOU

08:58NOT PUT INTO ORDINANCE

09:00REQUIREMENTS ABOUT A SINGLE

09:02TYPE OF RENGO RESERVATION AJ

21:30AND TESTIMONY WRITTEN WHICH I

21:31ALREADY REVIEWED FIRST IS,

21:34HAWAII IN THE SUBMITTED VERY

21:35SUBSTANTIVE TESTIMONY RAISED

21:38THE ABSOLUTELY RELEVANT

21:41PROBLEM THAT'S UNCLEAR HOW

21:43MUCH WOULD BE NEEDED IN TERMS

21:44OF RESOURCES FOR THE

21:45DEPARTMENT TO BE ABLE TO

21:47IMPLEMENT THIS LEGISLATION AND

21:49DOGS THE DIRECTOR WHO IS WITH

21:52US AT THE TIME, IN THIS HE

21:53HEARING, DOES HE AND

21:55INDICATION WHAT KIND OF STAFF

22:02IN KIND EXPENSES, T ET ET ALL

22:06WOULD BE ROUGHER ESTIMATE OF

22:06THE COST OF IMPLEMENT A THIS

22:08BILL?

22:08SECOND QUESTION HAS TO DO WITH

22:11ACTUAL ORAL TESTIMONY JUST

22:14PROVIDED.

22:14NOW, IF THIS IS SOME SORT OF

22:16INTERACTIVE MAP THROUGH GOO HE

22:18OWE GRAPHIC INFORMATION SYS

22:26IF IT WAS ACCEL BASED,

22:39MANNER.

22:39I'M ALL FOR INCREASING DATA

22:40TRANSPARENCY.

22:40WITHOUT INCREASING BUREA

22:43BUREAUCRACY.

22:43>>Chair Tupola: THANK YOU

22:44SO MUCH.

22:45ANYONE ELSE WISHING TO TESTIFY

22:54MISS MELODY YOUNG.

22:55COMMENTING.

22:56NEITHER IN SUPPORT OR IN

22:57OPPOSITION.

22:58ONE THING I WAS THINKING ABOUT

23:00TOO WAS FOR THE COUNCIL AND

23:04THE LAND MANAGEMENT OFFICE, TO

23:05CONSIDER WHETHER THESE REP

23:07REPORTING REQUIREMENTS WOULD

23:08CREATE ADDITIONAL

23:08ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN.

23:11BECAUSE I THINK THAT TO MAKE

23:11IT WORK, THEORETICALLY YOU

23:13COULD SIMPLIFY THE PROCESS BY

23:14HAVING DEVELOPERS PROVIDE

23:16INSIGHT ON DATA, TO PROVIDE

23:18INFORMATION THEY ALREADY

23:19PREPARE FOR EXISTING CITY

23:20APPLICATIONS.

23:21FINANCING, TAX INCENTIVES

23:23AFFORDABLE HOUSING, COMPL

23:24COMPLIANCE, FORMS, RATHER THAN

23:26REQUIRING THE LAND MANAGEMENT

23:29OFFICE TO CREATE ENTIRELY NEW

23:30REPORTING SYSTEM.

23:33SO AND THIS WILL MAKE IT

23:34EASIER TO S SYNCHRONIZE AND

23:35INTEGRATE THE DATA.

23:36BUT ALSO HAVE TO INTEGRATE THE

23:38DEPARTMENT OF INFORMATION

23:40TECHNOLOGY TO CREATE ALGORITHM

23:42TO PRODUCE THE DATA NEEDED TO

23:45READ THE METRICS OF WHAT

23:45INCENTIVES ARE TIED TO PRO

23:46PRODUCING THE MOST LIVABLE

23:48HOUSING PROJECTS WITH THE MOST

23:49MASK PLUM BEN BIT FIT TO THE

23:52STATE AND COUNTY.

23:52AND I DON'T KNOW IF THE BILL

23:54CLARIFIES.

23:55MAX BENEFIT.

23:56SEEKING CLARIFICATION.

23:58DOES IT NEED STATE'S

23:59DEPARTMENT.

24:00HHFDC ALSO AWARDS AND FUNDS

24:02PROJECTS.

24:03SO IN THEORY, TO MAKE IT WORK,

24:05YOU WOULD IDEA EYE HAVE TO ALL

24:09THESE DEPARTMENTS OFFICES WO

24:10WORKING TOGETHER COOPERATIVE

24:11WILL I DO DEVELOP A PROGRAM,

24:14TO INTEGRATE THESE DATA POI

24:17POINTS, AND ALSO, I THINK IT

24:23IS HARDER TO.

24:23>>Chair Tupola: THANK YOU.

24:25>>Testifier: -- DATA.

24:26WE HAVE ELECTRONIC FORMS IN

24:27THIS SUNSCREEN RAG, MAKE IT

24:29YEARS.

24:30IN THIS GENERATION MAKES IT

24:38NOT REGISTERED.

24:38SEEING NONE.

24:38WE'LL CLOSE DISCUSSION.

24:58HOW WE CAN REPORT BACK TO OUR

26:14I KNOW TALK A LOT OF EFFORT TO

26:16SPEAK TO ALL THE DIFFERENT

26:19STAKEHOLDERS AND TRYING TO

26:19FIND BALANCE.

26:20SO I HAVE SOME COMMENTS ON THE

26:22CURRENT VERSION.

26:24DPP SHARES YOUR GOAL OF

26:25INCREASING AFFORDABLE HOUSING

26:26PRODUCTION, AND RISES

26:28IMPORTANCE OF ENSURING THAT

26:29DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS DO NOT

26:31UNNECESSARILY IMPEDE VIABLE

26:33PROJECTS.

26:33WE ALSO APPRECIATE THE

26:34AMENDMENTS IN THE CD2 THAT

26:37ADDRESSES SEVERAL OF OUR

26:38EARLIER CONCERNS.

26:39HOWEVER, THREE ISSUES REMAIN.

26:41WE BELIEVE WARRANT FURTHER

26:42CONSIDERATION.

26:44NUMBER 1, PUNCHBOWL SPECIAL

26:46DISTRICT HEIGHT PROTECTIONS.

26:48WE APPRECIATE THAT CD2

26:49GENERALLY PRESERVES UNDERLYING

26:51ZONING HEIGHT LIMITS IN

26:54SPECIAL DISTRICTS INCLUDING

26:55DIAMOND HEAD.

26:55HOWEVER WE REMAIN CONCERNED

26:57ABOUT THE EXCEPTION FOR PUB

26:59PUBLIC.

27:00RECOPUNCHBOWL.

27:02EXISTING HEIGHT PRECINCTS VARY

27:05CONSIDERABLY AND MAY LIMIT

27:07DEVELOPMENT COMM OPPORTUNITIES

27:08CERTAIN PROPERTIES.

27:09HEIGHT LIMITS ARE NOT

27:10ARBITRARY, BUT REFLECT

27:12LONGSTANDING PLANNING DECI

27:51OUTSIDE SPES DISTRIBUTES

27:53COMPROMISE PROVIDED UNDERLYING

27:57HEIGHT PROTECTIONS WITHIN

27:57SPECIAL DISTRICTS WERE

27:58MAINTAINED.

28:00WE THEREFORE CONTINUE TO

28:00REQUEST DELETION OF PUNCHBOWL

28:04PERJP32 PROJECTS W W WITHIN THE

28:10SUBDIVISION SUBJECTS TO

28:12TRANSITIONAL HEIGHT SETBACKS.

28:13WE UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS

28:14THAT TRANSITIONAL HEIGHT

28:16SETBACKS COULD REDUCE

28:17DEVELOPMENT CAPACITY

28:18PARTICULARLY ON SMALLER

28:20PROPERTIES.

28:21HOWEVER, THESE SETBACKS SERVE

30:01EXTENDING THEIR APPLICATION TO

30:15WE RECOGNIZE THAT 70-FOOT

30:16THRESHOLD IS ASSOCIATED WITH

30:18HIGHRISE PROVISIONS OF THE

30:20BUILDING CODE.

30:21HOWEVER, THE HIGHRISE

33:22SO QUICKLY, WE HAVE 224 UNITS

33:24THAT ARE CURRENTLY BUILT.

33:25WITH A POTENTIAL OF MAYBE 18

33:281800.

33:28THERE ARE OPEN 6 CERTIFICATES

33:31OF OCCUPANCY SILL.

33:32THREE WHAT ARE COMING AND 22

33:34BUILDING PERMIT THAT IS HAVE

33:35BEEN ISSUED.

33:36OCCUPANCY STILL.

33:37NEXT, OKAY, SO FAR, I'VE TAKEN

33:4226 MEETINGS ON THIS BILL.

33:44WITH VARYING PEOPLE WITH

33:45NEIGHBORHOODS, TO NEIGHBORHOOD

33:46BOARD MEMBERS, GOVERNMENT

33:48AGENCIES, DEVELOPERS UHERO

33:49INCLUDED.

33:50DHLM, DPP AS H AS WELL AS MAYOR

33:53ADMINISTRATION.

33:55NEXT.

33:58OUR GOAL IS IT TRYING TO BUILD

33:59HOUSING BUILD IT RIGHT, BUILD

34:03COMMUNITY, BEEN VERY, VERY

34:03DIFFICULT TO STRIKE A BALANCE

34:04WITH ALL OF THAT.

34:04NEXT.

34:07SO IF WE CAN, BUILD MORE

34:09HOUSING.

34:11HOUSING PROCONSTRUCTION BUT

34:14PROCOMMUNITY ENTIT AT THE SAME

34:18EDITION OF B1, B2 BUSINESS

34:21DISCOING SUGGESTED BY

34:22COMMITTEE MEMBER DEFINITELY

34:23FEW OF US IN COMMITTEE THAT WE

34:25DO NOT HAVE ANY OF THESE

34:28PROJECTS AWAY WOULD LIKE THAT.

34:28SO ADDING B1, B2 IN THE T.O.D.

34:30AREAS AS WELL AS ADDING T.O.D.

34:33DEVELOPMENT PLANNED AREAS, NOT

34:34JUST T.O.D. DEVELOPMENT AREAS.

34:37FLENEXT.

34:38FOR EVERYTHING OUTSIDE THE

34:39PRIMARY URBAN A AREA, IT IS 60

34:46ZONING AN WHATEVER IS SHORTER

34:47FOR THE PRIMARY URBAN AREA, AS

34:49WELL AS TRANSIT-ORIENTED

34:51DEVELOPMENT AREAS, THE 75 FEET

34:52UNDERLYING ZONING WIND FARM IS

34:57GREATER.

34:57AND THAT INCLUDES PUNCHBOWL

34:58AND WAIKIKI SPECIAL DISTRICT

34:59AREAS IN PRIMARY URBAN AREA.

35:02WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

35:04FLOOR AREA RATIO IN THESE,

35:06PRIMARY URBAN AREA IS INCR

35:08INCREASED TO 5.

35:09HIGHEST FLOOR AREA RATIO WITH

35:11HAVE ANYWHERE IN DOWNTOWN

35:12HONOLULU IS 7.5.

35:14SO IT'S ONE F.A.R. MORE THAN

35:16THE CURRENT F.A.R. OF FOUR.

35:20UNIT COUNT HAS A NEW FORMULA.

35:22THAT IS DETERMINED BY WHETHER

35:25OR NOT IT'S CLOSE TO A BUS

35:26STOP OR FAR FROM A BUS STOP.

35:28WITH THE ELIGIBILITY OR THE

35:30NUMBER OF UNITS BEING LOT AREA

35:33DIVIDED BY 120 OR 130.

35:34THAT IS THE BREAKDOWN OF HOW

35:35THE UNITS WOULD BE DECIDED IN

35:37THE EXAMPLE OF 10,000 SQUARE

35:40FOOT ALOHA LOT.

35:41NEXT.

35:43EFFICIENCY DWELL DWELLING UNIT

35:45WAS A MEETING WITH THE DEV

35:48DEVELOPERS AND THE

35:48ADMINISTRATION, IN REGARDS TO

35:49THE LACK OF DEFINITION OF TH

35:50THIS.

35:50AND SO THE DEFINITION IS BEING

35:51DEFINED IN THIS BILL OF WHAT

35:54EFFICIENCY UNIT IS WHICH IS

35:55THE 170 CURRENTLY, EXISTING

35:58CODE REFERENCES 220 FEET FOR

36:00EFFICIENCY, BUT THEY'RE ALSO

36:02WAS NOR PART OF THE CODE THAT

36:03ALLOWS FOR 190 SQUARE FEET OF

36:06HABITABLE SPACE WHICH WOULD BE

36:08THE BEDROOM AT 70 AND LI LIVING

36:12ROOM AT 120.

36:12SO THIS IS JUST CLARIFYING.

36:13NEXT.

36:14HEIGHT SETBACKS THEY'RE LISTED

36:17HERE.

36:19APPLIES TO ANY BUILDINGS THAT

36:20OVER 75 FEET.

36:20MAKING SURE THAT THERE IS

36:21SETBACK SIMILAR TO WHAT WE

36:22HAVE FOR OTHER BUILDINGS THAT

36:24HAVE THE ADDITIONAL HEIGHT.

36:27EFFECTIVE DATE.

36:28VERBIAGE WAS GIVEN TO US DPP

36:31HOW TO SMOOTHLY TRANSITION.

36:32SO ANYBODY THAT USES THE LAW

36:36IF PASSED CANNOT USE A

36:38COMBINATION OF BOTH LAWS.

36:39THEY HAVE EITHER GO WITH THE

36:41PREVIOUS CHAPTER 32 OR THE

36:43MOVING FORWARD CHAPTER 32.

36:45NEXT.

36:48TRYING TO BUILD IT RIGHT.

36:49NEXT.

36:51ENCOURAGING PARKING WITHOUT

36:53IMPOSING MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

36:55DEFINITELY WE'RE TRYING TO I

36:56AM ENCOURAGE ALL DEVELOPERS OF

36:57THIS TO BE MINDFUL OF THE FACT

37:00THAT THE BOTTOM FLOOR BEING

37:03UTILIZED FOR PACKING A WE

37:04ELEVATOR SHAFT WOULD BE

37:05ENCOURAGED.

37:06AS WE AS FOR THOSE AREAS WHERE

37:08THE CITY HAS ABILITY TO DO

37:11ON-STREET PARKING.

37:11I HAVE MET WITH DTS ABOUT TH

37:12THIS.

37:13AS WELL AS EMPTY LOTS WHERE WE

37:14COULD DO SURFACE STREET

37:17PARKING TO ASSIST BECAUSE

37:18THESE SMALL PROJECTS,

37:20DEFINITELY THE CITY COULD HELP

37:21WITH INFRASTRUCTURE WHERE WE

37:24CAN.

37:24SAFETY STANDARDS, WE REMOVED

37:28CONSTRUCTION TYPES PIPING

37:29MATERIAL, FIRE PREPROTECTION

37:31SYSTEMS HANDFUL OF FIRE

37:32EXEMPTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN

37:33REMOVED AND MANY OF THE

37:35DEVELOPERS SAID THIS THEY

37:36ALREADY FOLLOWED THAT CLA

37:38CLARIFIES THE FIRE ESCAPE

37:40STAIR REQUIREMENTS, AND

37:41MAINTAINS ANYTHING RELATING TO

37:43EGRESS, EXAMP EXTERIOR GRASS AN

37:47SMOKE ALARMS.

37:49EXTERIOR GLASS.

37:50MET WITH A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE

37:52THAT LAS VEGAS WOLFPACK THESE

37:53BUILDS TO ASK MAY HE THIS

37:54THOUGHT THAT LIVE WITHIN THESE

37:55BUILDINGS ASK THAT THEY

37:58THOUGHT ABOUT THEIR EXPER

37:59EXPERIENCE.

37:59INCREASING LOT SIZE, WAS

38:00DEFINITELY INTENDED FOR US TO

38:01BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE PARKING

38:03FOR THESE STRUCTURES.

38:05I WILL SAY THAT THE PEOPLE

38:05HAWAII MET WITH LIKE THE

38:07PARKING WHO I MET WITH LIKE

38:09THE PARK AND WANT THE PARK.

38:11ENCOURAGING ALL DEVELOPERS TO,

38:12TAKE IN THEIR FEEDBACK BECAUSE

38:15DEFINITELY WE WANT TO CREATE

38:16HABITABLE COMMUNITIES SPACES.

38:18PROPERTY MANAGEMENT.

38:20EVEN THOUGH DPP CANNOT ENFORCE

38:21THIS, I WROTE IT INTO THE BI

38:23BILL.

38:24AND ALL DEVELOPERS CURRENTLY

38:24MOVING BILL 7 PROJECTS HAVE

38:26AGREED.

38:26THAT HAVING A PROFESSIONAL

38:27PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANY,

38:2924-HOUR EMERGENCY CONTACT, AND

38:32HAVING IT PUBLICLY POSTED IS

38:35SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE CAN D

38:35DO.

38:36THE AREAS WHERE WE HAVE HAD

38:37ISSUES HAS BEEN HANDC HARD TIME

38:39THE COMMUNITY TO CONTACT THE

38:40DEVELOPERS SO THIS IS THE BEST

38:42WAY FORWARD.

38:44REFUSE LOADING AN CORNER LOTS.

38:46WAS CLARIFIED IN THIS BILL.

38:48AND THIS WAS I BELIEVE

38:50DISCUSSION THAT THE DEVELOPERS

38:51HAD WITH DPP.

38:53ON CLARIFYING THIS STANDARD.

38:55AND THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT

38:57HAVE NOT CHANGED.

38:58AND STILL REMAIN IN CHAPTER 3

38:5932.

39:00WE DID NOT TOUCH ANY OF THE

39:01GRANDS SEX DID IS.

39:03DID NOT CHANGE -- GRANTS

39:04SUBSUBSIDIES.

39:06DO NOT CHANGE SUNSET DATE OR

39:08PARK REQUIREMENT OR ELEVATOR

39:09REQUIREMENT ALREADY REQUIRED

39:10FOR THE REGULAR BUILDING COAT

39:12CODE THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT

39:14WE'RE DISCUSSING TODAY.

39:16VERY SMALL EDDIES MAYBE T.O.D.

39:59BY CHAIR AND ALL VARIOUS

40:01STOCKHOLDERS TO ARRIVE AT AN

40:03TRUE COMPROMISE WHICH WHAT

40:05THIS BILL IS.

40:06WHILE THERE MAYBE THINGS

40:07INDIVIDUALLY IN HERE THAT I

40:07MIGHT OBJECT TO, I BELIEVE

40:09THAT THIS BILL IS COMPROMISED

40:12LEGISLATION TAKES INTO ACCOUNT

40:14ALL OF THE BROADEST CONCERNS

40:17OF THE MANY STAKES HOLDERS

40:18INVOLVED.

40:18DUI WANT TO TAKE A MINUTE TO

40:20ADDRESS CHAPTER P 2 AND

40:21AFFORDABLE HOUSING.

40:2232.

40:23BECAUSE, IT HAS GROWN INCR

40:25INCRYINGLY FRUSTRATING FOR ME

40:26SOMEONE TASKED -- INCREASE

40:29CREEINGLY L WITH THE

40:29RESPONSIBILITY TO SEE THESE

40:31PROJECTS MOVE FORWARD.

40:32INCREASINGLY SEEING HEAD WINDS

40:34IN TERMS OF, LAMB COSTS

40:37CONSTRUCTION COSTS FINANCING

40:37COSTS, WITH INTEREST RATES

40:39CONTINUING TO RISE, THIS

40:41PROGRAM IS OUTSTANDING PRO

40:43PROGRAM.

40:43PROVIDES MUCH NEEDED

40:45AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR THE

40:46PEOPLE OF OAHU.

40:47AND IT DOES SO ALMOST NO COST

40:49TO THE CITY & COUNTY OF

40:50HONOLULU.

40:52SO I WOULD REALLY STRONGLY

41:44DISTRICT.

41:45DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.

41:48APUNA MENTIONED, GOES THROUGH

41:50CAREFUL CONSIDERATION FOR

41:55STANDARD.

41:56SO RATHER THAN IMPOSING

41:57ADDITIONAL CEILING ON THE

41:58DEVELOPMENT STANDARD, WITHIN

42:00SPECIAL DISTRICTS, PROBABLY

42:02THE BEST WHAT IS TO KEEP IT AS

42:05WHAT SPECIAL DISTRICTS STATE.

42:09OTHERWISE, OVERALL, I WANT TO

42:10SAY, HOW EXC EXCITED I AM ABOUT

42:11CHAPTER 32.

43:31DO HAVE A VISION FOR

43:34NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION.

43:34THERE ARE WAYS OF ACCOM

43:35ACCOMPLISHING THAT IN AREAS

43:36WHERE THAT IS SENSITIVE ISSUE.

43:38I WOULD ALSO ADD THAT I DO

43:39STRONGLY OPPOSE OFF-STREET
