We previously wrote to the Budding Department regardirq the referenced building permits, requesting that appropriate action be taken in the event the Department of Public Works confirmed that the grading permit (Nc. 004941) was issued for Lot 26, whereas the grading and building have been done on Lot 25. Lot 25 is within the floodplain. It appears that, although Mr. Ga'_=n Kuba voided the building permits because of the interchanging of lot numbers with the correct TMK designations, building has continued in the floodplain and the structure is now a two-story dwelling. No proper grading permit has, to our knowledge, ever been issued for this structure. We are writing for this third time to request that your department take such action as is appropriate to rectify what appears to be continuing construction without benefit of properly issued grading and building permits. Thank you for your timely response and attention to this matter. I Very ~ruly ur , ,/ALAN H. TUHY AHT: at cc: Kr. chrLatopher Yuen-Planning Dept. Hon. Harry Kim Building Dept-Kr.

Parcel 61 is Lot 24 and adjacent to Lot 25. On a recent inspection of the site, we found that construction has begun and continued on Lot 25 which we understand is owned by you, TMK above. Your Contractor has placed fill material on our client's adjacent land. On checking with the County, we find that you do not have any permit for grading, grubbing or construction for Lot 25, and in fact Mr. James Ishii was sent a Letter of ' Violation by Mr. Robert Yanabu of the Department of Public Works for placing fill material on that lot which is fully within the flood plain. The unlawful placement of the fill material negatively impacts the sales values of our client's parcels. Construction by our client has been postponed as a direct result of ±hese improper actions on Lot 25. You will also find enclosed the letter we have concurrently sent to the Building Department and parties indicated. This letter will serve as our formal demand that you CEASE AND DECIST from any further construction on Lot 25, directly or through others, and provide you assurances that no further activities will take place on that land until we are able to resolve the matter with you. . ~ S R.

To assure delivery of this to you, a copy is being sent by certified and regular mail to yau, and a copy is being sent to Mr. James Ishii demnnding that he and his agents also cease and decist from further unlawful acts.

We have been provided copies of the referenced building permit for Lot 26 and confirmatic. of the absence of a permit for Lot 25. Mr. James S. T_shii took out the permit on Lot 26, but the owner of Lot 25 on which constru=tion has been commenced (without benefit of a permit) is indicated to be M/M James R. and Stephanie C. Kim. The TMK record also indicates that Mr. Ishii's purchase of Lot 25 and 26 was concurrent with his deeding Lot 25 to the Kims on August 10, 1999 (Document No. 99-128422). our investigation also shows that Lot 25, which is fully within the flood plain, has been filled without permit nor, to our knowledge, required federal consents. We also have a copy of z repcrt showing that a Letter of Violation was sent to Mr. Ishii for unlawfully filling in the flood plain on July 29, 1999. In addition, the fill material imported to Lot 25 was graded in viglation of Hawaii County Ordinance Section 10-18 which requires 2 hori2ontal to 1 vertical in low plasticity soils, and, because it has encroached onto our client's Lot 24, violates Section 10-19 because it is not 2 feet or more from the property line and has in fact caused damage by extending over onto Lot 24. we are unaware of any effort to obtain certification and supporting data from a registered engineer or architect as required by County Ordinance Section 27-22(a). _ .~t...-- . ~y.,2v' . ~ r Ms. Nani Maski August 14, 2000 Page 2 we are writing to request an investigation because we do not understand how Mr. Ishii, a licensed contractor (AHC No. 15421) could be mistaken on where to build the slab and take his fill material; we are concerned that there may be an effort to obtain a "corrected" permit to allow, after the fact, construction on Lot 25 which will adversely affect our client and on which it would certainly wish first to be heard on the propriety of a permit under these conditions. Your recommendations are sought to permit my client to build on their adjacent lots without financial loss as a result of the actions set out above and in a letter sent concurrently to Mr. Ishii and the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Rim, a copy of which is also being provided to you.

We previously wrote *_o your Chief Buildlnq Inspector regarding Building Permit No. 000990 on which action was promptly taken by your department. For your reference, we are enclosing a copy of that correspondence which involved a building peg-mit for a lot not being built. We have now dust received copies of the referenced permits, with Building Permit No. 001187 being designated for TMK (3)2-4-37- 62 which is Lot 25, and Grading Permit No. 004941 being designated for TMK (3)2-4-37-63 which is Lot 26 (but which is erroneously stated to also be Lot 25 on the Grading Plan). Lot 25 bears a Firm Designation of AH because it is within the designated floodplain, whereas Lot 26 bears a Firm Designation of AHX because the ma7ori*_y of that property is outside of the floodplain. Both permits are being used to build on Lot 25, and the net result is building without a properly issued grading permit. Our additional concern is that the import of material without the prerequisite certification that the base flood level will not be effected is a violation of both the County Code (Ord. 527-18) and FEMA guidelines. we are again writing to request that your department take such action as you believe necessary to rectify what appears to be continuing construction without benefit of an issued grading permit and a building permit which is improperly premised on the issuance of that grading permit for Lot 25. _ ~ Mr. Stan Takemura 9optamber 15, 2000 Pago 2 we have been in touch with Mr. Ishii regarding the above, and ha has been cooperative and communicative with us. we were advised that Lot 25, which the TMR records currently show is owned by Mr. James and Mrs. 9tephania 1Cim, is in fact owned by Mr. Ishii and that the matter would be corrected. To date we have received no such correction nor confirmation of the ownership of Lot 25, and at present it may be that the permit was applied for by a party not the owner of record of Lot 25, such that it should be reviewed. By copy of this letter to Mr. Yanabu and Mr. Ishii, we are advising them of our request, and thank you and they for your prompt responses and courtesies. Very my yours, ~G~ ,ALAN H.
