Dear M7t. keda:
Tn raferq ce to Corporation Counsel reguast oP Ja~iuaz~y 12,.005,
T hgreb~ ubmit the answers to quar~tiona railed by CauncilWOman
Virginia Isbel:~,: `
1. The wall must have been built before end of Auquat 1999.
The ason is that the twe industrial builbinge on the pro-
part received Iuvndation inspgct.ione on October 5. 1989 for
. boil ng A with Building Permit 896214, and on pctober 9,
1989 or building a with building 8eratit 896215.
The -Retaining wall were built under building Permit No..
88354 and 14 entered into the county records as final on
Fear ry 3, 1997, S rcauestad additional information from
spun inspector Rodney Crusat, who raviewad the !iU and
loon no other information. Thi,a is opt unilaual as unfleraig-
ned and the same eitu..tioa in other caeca.
May I please draw your attention to the enclosed setback sur-
vey p KKM-surveys, dato8 February 24, 2004. This map shows
that he southerly building 'A' is right on the 15.00 !t. eet-
backJline, while the staircase leading to the second i`loor is
well into the setllack. Tha dltuatioh for the northerly Building
'B',also not as graphic in the major leotprint, is clearly
with staircase and patio projecting into the setback as well.
In o ~r words the southwest corner o! Building 'A' is less than
6.0 6.0 Feet from the upper rockwail (see photo
Cons derincl,:}lpo the heights of the r~,taining wall beang 15-1T
feet Bove et:reat level, there Would have been no possible way
to b ild tho two buildinQe on top, unless the retaining walla
were completed tiefore the work on the buildings' L~undations
and lab could have been Commenced,

2. I agree with C0d1+cilwoman it:ball that it l;s,n~rtainly a shod
Ldoa to have a land surveyor doublecheCk tlae.borners"of,th'e
prppert , but it is typically not aommon•pract~.ce in 1lawaii.
Tho lap rurveyar hired i:oz the property Nobochika Santo of
Island urvey in Hilo, who is also deceasad~. etowever, hir work
was lam tad to subdivision eatablishOtent, shish is on tho
county' dovket candor sole 1989-0169 and dual SabdivielaA No.
5043. s ate of Hawa11 File Plan 1806 was recorded easy 90, 1984.
There i no question in my mind that the approx. 30" high wall
at the outhwest corner was caused by the applioatiwn of the
wrong r thus, while the 2,4 inahate bulge along Kanalani Street
was li ly caused by pressure of liquid concrete on the ]cocks.
This m ns that the strings along the walla being set were pro-
jg~Lln into the public right••Of-way. and due tO the Rinisaule
nature Y the bulge, and the 180 ft. total Lengte+ of the wall,
could t easily have bean obsorvAd. Undesrsigned is a trained
former anon and 1~pr inderd dapit with ouch problems bettors.
Howeve , no malice and intent could be subatantiatad by under-
signed during aito inspartions.
