Dear Chairman and Council Members:
Re: Quitclaim Deed--Keauhou Fire Station
Grantor: Kamehameha Schools/Bishop Estate
Tax Map Key No. (3) 7-8-07:53
We are transmitting for the Council's review and consideration for acceptance a copy of
the above quitclaim deed, along with Draft 2 of a resolution accepting the deed. The first draft is
being replaced because there was an error in the Tax Map Key Number.
This quitclaim deed is being offered for the Council's acceptance as part of a situation
which dates back to ] 983, when Kamehameha Investment Corporation (KIC), as a condition of
rezoning, dedicated a piece of real property to the County for use as a fire station. This parcel is
located on Alii Drive, near the Shopping Center in Keauhou. One of the deed conditions stated
that if the County had not built a fire station on the property within fifteen years of the dedication
(September 7, 1998), the property would revert to KIC. Later, the Fire Department determined
that this lower Keauhou property is inappropriate for use as a fire station for two reasons: first,
the site is too small. Second, the grade of Kamehameha III Road is too steep for fully loaded fire
trucks to ascend, which would cause difficulty in responding to those fires located in the mauka
area of South Kona. With the reversion deadline approaching, the County decided to pay KIC
for a larger piece of real property located on Puuloa Road, with a fire station already built.
Inasmuch as this is improved real property, it is not subject to Chapter 103D of the Hawaii
Revised Statutes, the Procurement Code. With the station now completed, KIC is presenting the
quitclaim deed for the Council's acceptance. The lower Keauhou property will revert to KIC in
1998.
