Re: Resolution for Multi-year Lease of Real Property The County of Hawai'i wishes to enter into a multi-year lease with Waimea Ret4iP?11- a :
Delaware Limited Liability Company, for its office space within the Parker Ran6tenilw in
Waimea, South Kohala, Hawai'i. The office space is needed to house the Departme-nfof
Finance's recently created Vehicle Registration and Licensing (VR&L) Division which consists
of the Motor Vehicle Registration, Driver Licensing, Commercial Driver Licensing (CDL), and
Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspection (PMVI) sections. The Waimea office will serve as a satellite
VR&L service center to provide basic vehicle registration and driver's license services.
Furthermore, the County currently leases private office space in Waimea for the Prosecutor's
Office and the County Council. In the interest of improving efficiency and negotiating a more
favorable lease, the Department of Finance proposes to consolidate these agencies into a
single space within the Parker Ranch Center.
Enclosed is a resolution authorizing the County of Hawaii to enter into a multi-year lease for ten
(10) years for office space located at the Parker Ranch Center.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call Harry Yada, Property Manager.

A. REQUEST:
Resolution that authorizes the payment of funds for more than one fiscal year for a multi-year lease of real
property for a new Vehicle Registration and Licensing service center together with a consolidation of the
Prosecutor's Office and Council Office in Waimea. This lease will be between the County of Hawaii and
Waimea Retail, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, for office space within the Parker Ranch Center
in Waimea, South Kohala, Hawaii.
See attached "Offer to Lease" for lease terms.
B. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION (USE ADDITIONAL SHEETS AS NEEDED):
The motor vehicle registration section of the Department of Finance is being consolidated with the
driver licensing, commercial driver licensing (CDL), and periodic motor vehicle inspection (PMVI)
sections of the Police Department as a new Vehicle Registration and Licensing (VRL) under the
Department of Finance. To better serve the public, this new division proposes to establish satellite
VRL service centers in Waimea, Pahoa and Kau to provide basic vehicle registration and driver's
license services. This proposed lease will establish the Waimea portion of the plan to better serve the
public.The funding of these services and rent for the Waimea location was included in the 2007-2008
budget.
The County currently leases private office space in Waimea for the Prosecutor's Office and the County
Council. In the interest of improving efficiency and negotiating a more favorable lease, the Department
of Finance proposes to consolidate all agencies into a single space in the Parker Ranch Center. The
existing leases for County Council and the Prosecutor's Office expire in November 2008 and March
2009 respectively. Although there is some overlap, the Department of Finance will work with the
Landlord to seek a replacement tenant to minimize the remaining few months of the leases.
