chosen as the best point in the development process for both the developer and the County to pay and collect fair share fees for two reasons. First,it allows the developer to quickly sell lots or units right after receiving final approvals in order to recover funds used to develop the project. Secondly,it is the last point in the development process where the Planning Department has the ability to collect the fair share payment from one owner(typically the developer)rather than multiple owners at the time of sale. Currently, administration of the fair share payment system is fairly simple to complete because payments are calculated and collected at one time for each project,including any needed adjustments based on the percentage change in the Honolulu Consumer Price Index, rather than at multiple times as each lot sells.
