We have enclosed a June 3, 1998, letter from Robert A. Stuit, Director of Planning for Oceanside 1250, a June 23, 1998, memo from Mike McCall, Valuation Analyst, to Gary Kiyota, Real Property Tax Administrator, and a memo from Kalani Schulte to myself. The Real Property Tax Office has reviewed the ownership documents and have concurred with Oceanside 1250 that the parcel belongs to the State of Hawaii and the tax records have been corrected. The Real Property Tax Office has also determined that the amount of the credit is $41,105.00 and that it should be applied to future tax obligations.

A further check of the property revealed that since April 26, 1990 the 9.42 acres has been assessed to Oceanside 1250 instead of the State of Hawaii. The tax amount from 1990-91 to 1997-98 tax year is $41,105.00. All of the information to back up this request is enclosed for your perusal and determination of fact. In conclusion, I am recommending that a credit of $41,105.00 be allowed and that it be applied to future real property taxes of Oceanside 1250. Enclosure „~rwy Stephen K. Yamashiro Harry A.

Re: TMK 7-9-012-003 Pursuant to the request for correction of ownership of the above parcel, the Mapping section has completed its review (with assistance from Oahu) and determined that the parcel is indeed owned by the State of Hawaii. We have corrected our records to show this change effective immediately. The assessed value and tax amount for each year back to the 1990/91 tax year are as follows. I have calculated these only on the 9.42 acres involved.

Attached is all the documentation you received from them, and a copy of the correction we have made to the ownership. OCEANSIDE 12 SO June 3, 1998 Mr. Cary Kiyota County of Hawaii Real Property Tax Division 865 Piilani St. Hilo, Hawaii 967204679 Subject: TMK (3)7-9-12:03 Dear Mr. Kiyota: For the past several years, Oceanside has unknowingly been assessed and has paid the real property taxes on the above referenced parcel as it was included with a TMK that we own. Although we assumed others owned the parcel, the actual ownership had not been documented. Pursuant to our discovery that we were paying taxes on the parcel, we asked Hawaii Land Consultants to research the ownership of the above referenced parcel, and their findings indicate the underlying title to the parcel is with the State of Hawaii. For your reference, I have attached a copy of their findings to this letter. 74-5620 A Palani Road Since it has now been established that the parcel belongs to the State, we respectfully ask that the County of Hawaii appropriately credit or provide a full Sure 200 refund to Oceanside for the taxes it has paid on this parcel. Please update your records to show that the State of Hawaii is the owner. Kailua-Kona. Hawaii Thank you for consideration of this request, and if you have any questions please 96740-1625 contact me in Kona at 326-2966. Tel: 808-326-2966 Sincerely, Fax: 808-326-7713 Robert A.
