Bill > HR74

This Resolution urges the Department of Planning and Permitting of the City and County of Honolulu to take immediate action regarding ongoing violations at a property in Hauula, identified by its address and Tax Map Key (TMK) 5-4-004:021. The property, a large unsubdivided plot in an agricultural zone (AG-2 general agricultural district), is being used as a construction baseyard, which is prohibited in this zoning area. The Department has issued multiple violation notices since 2017 for activities such as grubbing and grading, constructing structures and fences, storing metal containers, and operating the baseyard without necessary permits. These violations, occurring in a protected wetland area, are considered a risk to the local community and environment, prompting this call for urgent enforcement and a report on the steps taken within forty-five days.
