and that's not one of the words i moved here about twenty five years ago but i learned a couple words that i think are very important here but one is coolly ana and as far as coolly ana which is responsibility i know for the people of the county of maui when i sit in this seat it's the same feeling i got the first day i sat in a c you know i used to work at a kaku and videotape these meetings in this room for a long time and i always thought well yeah i understand what those guys are doing but until you sit in these seats you don't know and i know the rest of the members have that same feeling of cool iana it's a great responsibility not only the members but anybody who sits on this floor staff as well we have the county of maui the people of county amount that we are responsible for the their futures and the next word is ohana ohana is family  and usually in your blood relatives you don't get to pick your blood relatives well we're the same we're not blood relatives but we're all hannah not by choice but by circumstances we all i believe have in our hearts and in our minds this county's future i have no doubt that every one of us sitting here has what they think is the best future for the county of maui we're here to serve those people of the county of m may differ on items and we may differ on items with a passion but we respect this process this room we don't go calling each other names we don't yell and scream at each other as you can see as there are things happening outside of this room in this county that are a little bit disturbing it didn't used to be that way when i first moved here it's getting more that way and we know we've talked about it at luncheon and whatnot so i'm a little concerned but i do know that in here we respect that we are all coming from unique perspectives we each here have our own upbringing our own just views on the way things should run ok but we at least treat each other with respect and civility here i would love to see that that comes back to the rest of the community and i think the folks in here are trying to do that with their respective friends and family we are we sit and discuss our points of view with passion and if we feel if we respect one another we think we can maybe change somebodies mine or let them see our point of view to say ok maybe i can agree with them but we don't like i said we don't get in each other's faces because once you do that walls are shut up so i think that it's important to remember that not only we respect this room but everybody in maui county respect each other respect everybody's position and try and see it from their side and then make a decision instead of getting in everybody's face  that brings us back to cooley ana we have the coolie on it but everybody has a coolie on it to make the best it can be it may not be the same vision that i have that somebody else has but at least working together knowing our differences we can at least be respectful of each other and see what the best compromise is so thank you here thank you mr couch and members and the audience will please rise up recite the pledge of allegiance with me thank you and

use the crown to raise the awareness on an issue of importance and to work with others to make a situation better my purpose this year is to raise the issue of child abuse and neglect and the need to improve our foster care system i have been a foster child in this issue reaches deeply into my life children are most precious resource and they deserve our best efforts so that they can live in strong families and grow up to be healthy contributing members of the community your recognition today is not about fletch a towbar instead it helps to spot light in an important issue that can be

much let's proceed for the record resolution fifteen ninety two mr chair proceeding with the presentation of testimony on agenda items we've established a limited telephone interactive communication that enables individuals from to provide testimony from our district offices individuals who wish to offer testimony from one of you should not sign up with district office staff individuals who wish to offer testimony in the chamber police lineup of the deaths located in the eighth floor lobby just outside the chamber door testimony at all locations is limited to the items listed on today's agenda pursuant to the rules of the counsel each testify or may be allowed to testify for up to three minutes when testifying please teach your name in the name of any organization you represent home office please identify yourself sidney smith will be followed by william just sent though this morning in support our seven which is agenda item fifteen dash ninety one a bill that would allow farmers to build a small stand and sell not only their own but their neighbors harvest since not all farmers have the time or inclination to directly sell their products this will be very helpful with the passage of e a r seven a farmer could even sell brewed coffee as long as state health department guidelines are met prior to this you would need to have a special use permit to sell the coffee or avocados or other home grown products from neighboring farms this will provide more opportunities for our own residents and visitors to buy local it will help to encourage family farms and will support agriculture this brings our code into alignment with hawaii state law i wholeheartedly support this thank you thank you very much miss methe members only need for clarification of her testimony good morning my county council members i am william just sent to the president of the my cattlemen's association thank you for the opportunity to testify and here are seven i don't number fifteen that name one it's been a long road on this bill and many of you as well as producers have put in many hours into getting the language into a bill that supports agriculture i think the council members for working with the community and listening to our past  and carefully discussing them and really talk taking them into consideration it has been time well spent and we support the bill as you retain all the ranchers may not be directly considered farmers farm ten years ago on the board of the chapter of farmers union and i'm on the ag working group and i wanted to thank council member couch for his remarks this morning has a word that i've taken much to heart in my fifteen years of living in hawaii it carries a great deal of meaning and and i want to reflect on the process of  the ag committee the ag chair and the ag vice chair gave this project to the working group and i believe that we have all experienced a deeper coolie on a working through these two years and learning the process and and coming into ohana with the council as we work together and i believe this bill as a board member of the farmers union i can see the change in the future of agriculture to rebuild agriculture in hawaii it won't be starting at the large scale for the most part and this bill is going to enable a lot of smaller scale people getting started to make bigger business plans more inclusive of opportunities and  i think the council very much and the ag chair and vice chair for pushing putting this on the agenda and helping us learn how to move it forward through the council and thank you to the council for all your work you've put into this bill dash ninety one morning good morning i'm a small farmer in haiku i grow well here's the list it's huge  including coffee and my major crop is coffee and before i knew it was illegal i roasted and sold it at the street i sold it for about twenty dollars a pound now i sell the green beans for about a third of that because i can't sell the coffee so that would help me out a lot but i think more importantly is my fruit stand to the community that i have so i grow twenty eight types of citrus seven types of avocado this year for the first time i have cash  so i'm trying to figure out how to get the cash to fruit of the know so that i can sell the fruit without running the fruit and i have community members in where i live that come to me constantly and say i depend on your fruit stand i have senior citizens who don't drive and they come along they and always pay but they come along and pick up for a for their home and i have children at the end of that i can look down my driveway and see children cramming bananas in their mouth i know they've been there because they always leave the peels on the ground but we're at a tourist based economy we rely heavily on tourism and i know from jars of coins that i save for my grandchild that i cater to many countries and last night we had a particularly poignant event my first stand as empty and my daughter was leaving incomer it came running back said mama you got to come to this street there's a family that the parents are deaf and that they had three children who is who speak for them and they come here every year and they stay in a condo in key hay and one of their big tourist events that they do they tried to my fruit stand for i'm sorry i'm losing my father but i keep her parents so we spent an hour with going through the so they've been there year after year so not only i'm in support of this bill but i'd like you to understand that tourism is also affected by our fruit our stands and what we sell the testify in the council chamber if there are any additional individuals on the council chamber or at the district offices who would like to to offer money please identify yourself to the appropriate staff and proceed to the testimony lectern or district office phone at this time on the office are there any ok thank you members or

before you from the economic development energy agriculture and recreation committee the following committee report and committee report fifteen dash ninety one recommending the following one of the proposed bill entitled a bill for an ordinance title nineteen molly county code to allow commercial agricultural sharpshooters in the agricultural district be passed on first reading and be ordered to print and to that kind of communication thirteen dash eighty five be filed with go a fifteen ninety one ok i move to adopt the recommendations in committee report fifteen dash ninety one chair i second the motion you have a motion for mr goodman and a second as accessory uses and special uses within the county agricultural districts for types of commercial agricultural structures on agricultural land products stands farmers markets are all retail structures and are cultural retail food establishments with the maximum of two commercial agriculture structures per lot your committee recognized provisions of title nineteen county code relating to the sales of a agricultural products from roadside stand rendered inconsistent with the state laws regulating produce to own agricultural base commercial operations in agriculture districts when section two zero five dash two who i revised statutes was amended in two thousand and twelve the revised proposed bill addresses inconsistency between county and state regulations within the ira cultural district your committee also is aware that the structures are allowed to sell some or all of the following produce products depending on the type of structure number one agricultural products grown razer caught in the county number two value added products that were produced using agricultural grown in hawaii number three logo items or items for direct retail sale by producers that has the producers business logo permanently affixed to it and for other food items which are food items that were neither an agricultural product grown raise or caught in the county nor a value added product that was produced using agricultural products grown razor caught in hawaii your committee also is aware that the commercial agricultural  sell agricultural products are value added products that are groups that are not grown raise caught or produce on the lot on which the structures located provided there there is an active agricultural operation on the lot a farm plant showing an active agricultural operation must be provided to the department of planning and its implementation verified before commercial agricultural structure of three hundred square feet or more and total floor area commences operations  revised proposed bill is the result of many hours of hard work by the department of planning working in conjunction with the agricultural working group composed of mallee farmers the agricultural working group was organized to address the challenges piecing th groeschel industry in maui county the department of planning is also has informed your committee that the department supports the measures the committee also recommends that the revised proposals be passed on first reading and the county communication be filed in addition to that share the the this proposed ordinance is basically as i stated was to make sure that our county as being permissible on agricultural lands so within the state law it didn't determine size it didn't return doesn't didn't doesn't say how many what type of produce  does specifically some of the produce but this ordinance basically takes the state law and adds regulations so that we can as a county make sure that there is no abuse i know that there's testifiers that have indicated their concerns but without this ordinance i believe there would be more abuse because it's specifically this ordinance ties in that the four structures also implemented the farm plan must be implemented on that property so the active ag needs to be shown on the property that those structures are going to be placed on as well as the size we've put size restrict within this ordinance it cannot be more than one thousand square feet if it's more than one sound square feet than a special use permit is required as well as parking provisions we put in parking provisions within this ordinance to make sure that it doesn't obstruct traffic so without these type of regulations we're left with a state law that is basically open in play and would allow more abuse so  current would maintain the current structure for roadside stands and farmers markets a reason to exempt on a community plan from the provisions of commercial agriculture all structures argument and the concerns of the hon a community i was there last year in august and presented the bill and there it was pretty much split in terms of support or not acceptance of the bill but what i had failed to convey properly was that there is a state law under two or five dashed to that already allows those type of structures on agricultural lats and so what i would probably fail to communicate was if we don't put some type of regulations to control it council at the county level then we're looking at hot having more abuse with the state and veg the vague language that they have in this state that basically says go build four different structures where on ag lands without they don't even tie in a nexus between active agriculture if we're talking about control chair this ordinance i would as i would i truly believe would control the uses in honda for those that are actively being you know doing those roadside stands or those the structures that are built along hahn a highway this ordinance allow some tea so that the department which strongly supports this bill can go in and say look he just said mitt your your farm plant is in an implemented farm plan active farm there are you is there a person because there is even a percentage of the different type of products they can go in and determine on a checklist are you doing forty percent of non other foods and are these produce from maui and is there parking regulations are they abiding by the parking regulations and you're only allowed to these structures per lot that's what's in the ordinance if we revert if we if we ex honna then there are no other stricter regulations that would control the state law i don't know how us to put it chair but i believe this is going to be helpful for  more destructive towards them they will allow the planning department to go in and do more and for smith because there are more criteria set it set within our ordinance to be more strict i completely understand mr carroll's position i agree with that honiss should be hunted but we're talking about a state here not just a d n b ordinance that we created that we drafted we're dealing with a state law and how do we implement that state law i can ask corporation counsel if what was the what would be the effect of  chair used to be member guzmn thank you for the question church looking at the proposed language in the proposed amendment and without getting into the without getting into the position in the cause that mr carroll was presenting and and the positions voiced by a member that the language is quite frankly has not been vetted by the department of planning and i would prefer that at having concerns about the interaction that the proposed terms have with the rest of the ordinance but we can certainly go through it line by line but it will probably  the rest of your day and i made suggest if the body will is seriously considering the amendments being proposed that the department especially department planning be given an opportunity to weigh in on the language and the impact that me i mean not have it certainly may at the end of the day be a language that the department of planning and the corporation c would be agreeable with with the few changes doesn't appear on my first read of this that it's entirely offensive it certainly should be considered however planning has not seen this language and i think they should as a member who's been has said earlier that the proposed an original bill prior to this amendment was supported strongly by the department so with that said without getting into the nuances between i would benefit doesn't ben on and the impact that it may have with state law i think that the department should be given the opportunity to w g had been brought up and there was no motion to support it in fact i have language here that mr victory and i said yeah there has to be some type of regulation out there and h so the point is this is what we're working on right now as an ordinance that basically you would would implement the state law which is two or five dash two so i don't see how you can exempt a certain area of the state without going through state legislation because people  are citizens of the state as well so i have no problem exempting them but if there is ever a legal challenge to say look we're not being equally treated because we're not being able to utilize any of the four structures then i think we've got a problem but i'll leave it at that i'll if hano wants to be examined fine i'm fine with that because you know if they want to grow without without any type of restrictions out there just build for different type of structures without any type of size restrictions without any kind of produce restrictions without any type of parking hey this is what we're faced with i mean at the interest of i represent honda as well i know may not live there but i don't want hunted to be all crazy either out of control that's why this these provisions were put in there so that we can we can work with the state laws and we can be more restrictive but we as chair i'm fine with them exempted but as members of this council realize what is the law what is the regulations that honda will abide by that that's exactly it might victory no said in committee what  regulations will then be governed in honna still gotta follow the the state law which is allowing these four structures how do you then regulate those for structures and honda we can we can draft out a different provisional together limit maybe the sizes even more so for honna but i don't see any other way that we can exempt them completely that's why  and going out to the districts and relieve readiness you know i put the initial transmission transmittal out there to refer it to the planning commission when fair and mr man has been working it through also and now we have it and it's come a long way it's definitely a far cry from what my little idea of still farmstand bill came you know and to what it is today but i appreciate all of th detail the extreme hard work that's gone into it and i concur of everything that he's explained so far this amendment that's on the floor right now i feel somewhat blindsided by it i think it's something that if it were to move on it needs to be vetted through committee once again that this is not the time and place for it and i'm really surprised that the member who is proposing this those are actually his words for many other  full council meetings and i number one eight as corporation counsel today has stated it ought to be vetted through planning they themselves corporation council president signed off on the legality of this restrict on a page six of the amendment it does appear to restrict one product stand per law and if it's if it's products that aren't being grown grown on that lot then they have to get a special use permit and it does have restrictions on parking so i at least see that but but because you know being very familiar with chapter nineteen i really would like the planning department to see this and the corp council to take a look at it it appears to at least thank you very much chair i'd like to weigh in on this and first of all i want to say that i am not a member of this committee and i was not aware of the discussion to it hon and there was any concern from hannah and i came prepared to vote on this today and i was very surprised to find the amendment because if it had been posted we did in that matter made it easier because we could have you know prepared and i'm listening to both sides of this and i don't feel comfortable in voting and i make a commitment that should this go back to committee that i will attend those meetings because i want to make sure that when i vote that i feel comfortable it's a little long comfortable to have to vote on something that i really  i don't understand both sides of it thank you and i want to think the committee it's been a tremendous amount of work and not just for the committee but for the folks that have attended numerous numerous meetings and i can understand tear guzman's frustration i know how it is when you work really really hard on something and when you bring it forward something you know something comes out that you didn't expect but maybe if he's willing to do that it might be a better outcome but i want to say i was very surprised that i am very very disappointed that for two and a half years this has been in my committee we've had official committee meetings said in time this is gone to every commission i have had to walk over to the planning the planning department at least seven or eight times to redraft and keep redrafting and only last like three days ago i put i i am i'm hearing over in the hallway that there's going to me and amendment wow i'm very disappointed and if there was some kind of concern from honda i didn't receive anything except for support from from constituents i had emailed in you know we're here to go back to kid media at this stage i'm very very disappointed you know and if there was an issue with ana it in fact i'm just going to be disclose forthright about this i'm sitting there in the house in my office and i hear over the the conference telephone next door someone calling in an executive assistant and that was miss lono who's dictating what the amendments should be  i'm sitting there in shock say well why is this happening all of a sudden i don't know but i'm very disappointed about this last minute amendment i feel that it is inappropriate at this time in you guys want to bring it back to committee then that's fine if very disappointed in the chairs and similarly concern that you know this this is bias minute it's coming to us without a real understanding with from gaining input from the planning department as to what the impacts are and you know we all know that there's lots and lots of  these roadside stands on the way to hire and they provide a wonderful access to economic benefits and reading this i need to know what the impacts are on the existing the existing roadside stands and whether or not one of mr a tie is conserved was you know we can do they can do retail well i believe this but as far from the truth this comes from the community and we and cultural services and all of us we do not represent or souls reproaches at the community and that's what we i heard the community was divided well the divided community has only talked to me a boat this amendment i have not received one verbal or written back and report what they wanted i've completed i've done it this is what the community members have seen me for but whether there are if media in the county council will come back to order members the chair is going to recommend that we defer this item with motions pending to the august twenty fifth meeting and that will give us time to get a response from planning director spence on whether he has concerns or can support this amendment it will also give us a chance to get something in writing from corporation  council so that by the time this comes back to us again we will have a greater level of clarity whether this is going to have the right effect for hono or whether it may just cause some additional challenges so  in the council chamber correct thank you you have before you from your infrastructure an environmental management committee the following committee reports committee report fifteen dash ninety two recommending the following one that the proposed resolution entitled accepting grant of easement for sewer line purposes for the clerk to call up the media reports fifteen dash ninety three and fifteen dash ninety four have before you committee report fifteen dash ninety three we recommend in the following one that the proposed resolution titled

second for mr coach as cochran thank you your committee met on july twentieth two thousand and fifteen to discuss the resolutions noted in the committee reports the resolutions pertain to the acceptance of sewer line easements or sewer system improvements for various projects within the area at the intersection of a lot more place and hoberman avenue alexander baldwin l l c is dedicating

fifteen ninety three its resolution fifteen dash ninety five and respective to committee report fifteen dash ninety four resolution fifteen dash ninety six you had before you committee report fifteen ninety five recommending the following one to the proposed bill entitle the bill for an ordinance amending to outdoor lighting standards for relating to compliance deadlines shielding requirements and usage restrictions be passed on first reading and be ordered to print and two that kind of communication at the meeting of july twentieth two thousand and fifteen your committee heard from the director of public works that the department desires to utilize more energy efficient lamp types in the county street lights as a way to reduce costs the propose will provide the department with the flexibility to find an energy and cost efficient lamp type that not only meets the company's lighting standards but needs but also prevents further degradation of the night sky the bill also extends the deadline for street lights to be shielded to generally first twenty twenty the extension allows a department of additional time to the street lights that are more difficult to retrofit with in addition the extension will help save costs by delaying further shielding efforts while the department is evaluating a replacement laptop the director noted the proposed bill when enable the department to further evaluate replacement lamp types but installation of a new lamp type cannot occur until the department's administrative rules are meant that the administrative rules process
