RE: Communication 227.13 from Mark Van Pernis
regarding Bill 276, Draft 2
A recently received letter from Mark Van Pernis (Comm. 227.13
copy enclosed) sugge¢ing simple language changes to prevent
continuing abuses and circumvention of the Subdivision Code as
it relates to "double density condovision."
Mr. Van Pernis offers what appears to be an easy solution to
re-establish the validity of the County's Subdivision Code. As
you may recall, he suggests that the definition of Subdivision
be as follows:
"the division or creation of more than one parcel,
lot, or unit, including by application of a Condominium
Property Regime, out or from one parcel or lot."
It appears that this definition will have the effect of
bringing any proposed double density developments under the
same County controls as required in other projects.
Inasmuchas this has been a big problem in West Hawaii and has
led to increased density with commensurate infrastructure
improvements. i would appreciate your reviewing this matter and
incorporating it in the neat draft of Bill 276.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call me.
