Aloha KCDP Action Committee et. al.,
Understanding that you are in the midst of reviewing proposed changes submitted by the
Administration, I request your consideration of my case relative to my desire to subdivide. I
believe I am presently stymied due to the current language in the KCDP regarding concurrency
and the area my property maps into the KCDP. In 2012 I purchased a 1 acre AG zoned lot on
Nani Kailua Road mauka of Heinaloli Road. This is a development of 37 1 acre ag lots. The
lower 9 lots (7,8,9,10, 11,12,13,14 and 21) were marketed by the developer and supported in
our CC&R’s as lots eligible for subdivision the other 28 lots are not.
A few years have passed and lots 9 and 10 were recently denied subdivision by Hawaii County
Planning due to the provisions of the KCDP and zoning. This obviously took the air out of us
owning these 9 lots for any future plans we may have envisioned. I am lot 8 or TMK 75-94-12
and thus the 3rd 1 acre lot mauka of Heinaloli Road on the north side of Nani Kailua Drive.
Heinaloli Road is an old train trestle path crossing Nani Kailua Drive to a dead end and Nani
Kailua Drive dead ends at the top of our subdivision, Ka Aina Pono. The section of Nani Kailua
Drive within our subdivision is private to us and not maintained by the County.
I can only speak for myself in this request of your consideration to amend the KCDP, as you
are in process, in its restrictions that would allow me to subdivide my lot. All other provision
of water and CC&R’s are already provided.
Mahalo for your consideration.
Respectfully,
Stephen D Lopez
