FAX (808) 935-2070 MEMORANDUM June 6, 1991 TO: FROM: All Meeting Attendees W. segawa~ PROJECT: 9004 - RIVERVIEW DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS Amauulu Development A meeting was held on May 30, 1991, 9:00 a.m., at the office of the County of Hawaii, Chief Engineer regarding the acquisition of the County Easement on the project site. The following is a brief summary of that meeting. 1.0 Those present included: Bruce McClure Ronald Matsumura Gary Takamura Fred Gianini Wesley Segawa Chief Engineer County - Survey Chief" Finance - Budget Administrator Corporation Counsel WRSA 2.0 The purpose for this meeting was to: 2.1 Determine whether the County administration would be in favor of selling this easement to a potential Buyer. 2.2 Determine the procedures to follow in proceeding with the acquisition. 2.3 Determine the entities involved in the decision making process. 2.4 Determine an approximate timetable for this process to be completed. 3.0 Records indicate the County owns the property in fee simple. The property is a right-of-way, not an easement. 4.0 Sale of the property will require County Council approval. .' Riverview Development Partners June 6, 1991 Page 2 5.0 Public Works, Finance and Corporation Counsel seemed to agree that the property can be sold. However, they were not sure whether they could negotiate the sale as the County Code has language stating that the sale should be based on the highest bidder. Corporation Counsel will recommend negotiated sale because of the uniqueness of the property. 6.0 Procedures: 6.1 Corporation Counsel will prepare a resolution to the Council, recommending sale of the property, under Section 2-114 of the County Code. They will include a map of the property and justification for recommending the sale. Public Works will select appraisers and Buyer shall pay for the appraisal. They will also prepare the necessary maps and lot descriptions. 6.2 After the Council gives approval for the sale, the Finance Director will publish notice of the pending sale for three consecutive weeks, as required by the County Code. The notice is intended to give the public an opportunity to submit comments. 6.3 Assuming the sale can be negotiated, the Buyer would be negotiating with the Finance Director. 6.4 When the sale is finalized, the deed to the property will be turned over to the Buyer. 7.0 Once the sale is finalized, the Buyer will need to consolidate the property so it will be under the same zoning as the rest of his property. 8.0 The anticipated timetable will be as follows: 8.1 Corporation Counsel will prepare the resolution for submission to the Council on June 24, 1991. This date is the deadline, by which, items for Council action must be submitted for the appropriate Council committee to review and recommend a decision to the full Council. 8.2 Council will decide on the sale during their July 3, 1991 general meeting. At this point, the decision can be to proceed with the sale, deny the sale or defer to a later meeting. 8.3 Assuming the Council authorizes the sale, the notice and negotiating process begins. r' ... ~ . . Riverview Development Partners June 6, 1991 Page 3 9.0 Public Works recommended that the neighborhood community be informed about the pending development. Its a good idea to gain the local community's support because the Council will probably ask the Buyer about the community's reaction regarding the project. 10.0 Public Works will check whether the Department of Water Supply will abandon the existing waterline, presently in the easement. They will also check with Helco. 11.0 The Buyer or his representatives should be present during the full-council hearing to answer questions. cc: Mr. Edmund Olson 9004A
