WHEREAS, the existing pier fronting the property identified as Tax Map Key: (1) 4-5-058:121, Kaneohe, Koolaupoko, Oahu, was placed upon state submerged lands; and
WHEREAS, since 1987, the abutting property owner, Conrad Bryson Bush, possessed a month-to-month revocable permit issued by the Board of Land and Natural Resources to cover the encroachment; and
WHEREAS, in 2016, Mr. Bush passed away and Mrs. Martha K. Bush became the sole property owner and is interested in converting the revocable permit to a long-term easement; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Land and Natural Resources' Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands did not indicate any objections to the conversion into a long-term easement regarding the pier; and
WHEREAS, on December 9, 2016, under agenda item D-20, the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved a grant of a 55-year non-exclusive easement to resolve the encroachment; and
WHEREAS, the subject area is 538 square feet, more or less, which will be reviewed and approved by the Department of Accounting and General Services' Survey Division; and
WHEREAS, the grantee shall pay the State the fair market value of the easement as consideration of the use of the public lands to be determined by an independent appraisal; and
WHEREAS, section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes, requires the prior approval of the Governor and prior authorization of the Legislature by concurrent resolution to lease state submerged lands; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the Twenty-ninth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2017, the Senate concurring, that the Board of Land and Natural Resources is hereby authorized to issue a term, non-exclusive easement covering a portion of state submerged land identified as Tax Map Key: (1) 4-5-058:121, Kaneohe, Koolaupoko, Oahu, for the maintenance and repair of the existing pier, and for use, repair, and maintenance of the existing improvements constructed thereon pursuant to section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes; and
