On June 8, 2022, the Hawaii County Cultural Resources Commission (CRC)held an official
meeting according to the provisions of Chapters 91 and 92 Hawai`i Revised Statutes and Chapter 2,
Article 44 of the Hawai`i County Code, to deliberate the subject request for consultation from the
Leeward Planning Commission (LPC). This meeting, and in preparation thereof, allowed the CRC
the opportunity to review written and oral testimony from the public, review the subject permit
request and due diligence documents, and to hear from and question Hawaii Onel Investors LLC
representatives.
Upon this deliberation, the CRC moved to recommend that the developer perform additional
consultations with lineal and cultural descendants from the proposed parcel and neighboring
ahupua`a. The motion was approved by unanimous vote. After the vote, Commissioner Ku`ulei
Keakealani asked that consideration be made regarding concerns mentioned in public testimony.
These were namely, impacts of traffic, water usage, infrastructure, roadways, and remant nature of
cultural resources in the area, as well as impact to the site and place.
