Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 27-99, reports as follows:
Resolution No. 27-99, transmitted by Finance Director Harry Takahashi, via Communication
No. 89, dated January 8, 1999, authorizes the amendment of Grant of Easement dated
April I5, 1993, to Big Island Radio situated at Pepeekeo and Makahanaloa, commonly referred
to as Puu Alala, South Hilo, Hawaii, TMK 3rd/2-8-07:23.
Resolution No. 38-93 authorized the Mayor to execute a Grant of Easement in favor of the Big
Island Broadcasting Company, Ltd., for the purpose of maintaining and operating a radio
communications facility at Puu Alala. Effective June 25, 1997, the subject Grant of Easement
was assigned from Big Island Broadcasting Company Ltd., to Big Island Radio.
Most recently, Big Island Radio has proposed to construct a new 195-foot tower at Puu Alala.
Surveys indicate that certain existing facilities at Puu Alala are not within the original area
encumbered under that certain Grant of Easement currently encumbered to Big Island Radio.
Therefore, Resolution No. 27-99 proposes to amend said grant to resolve the problem of
encroachment outside of the original easement area and will provide additional area required for
ground space for additional users of the proposed 195-foot tower.
Furthermore, said amendment will require certain terms and conditions including the payment of
twenty percent (20%) of the gross compensation received by Big Island Radio form the sub-
lessees, permittees or users of space on the tower(s) at the subject site.
An amendment was made to Resolution No. 27-99 to correct a numberin~ error in regard to the
subject parcel TMK 3'x/2-8-07:23. The correct tax map key should be 3 /2-8-07:70.
Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 27-99, as
amended to Draft 2, and recommends its adoption.
