     WHEREAS, thereafter, the Bank of Hawaii became the successor trustee for the Tsugio Ueyama Revocable Living Trust dated July 10, 2001, and the Jane N. Ueyama Revocable Living Trust dated July 10, 2001; and

 

     WHEREAS, in 2007, a shoreline survey showed portions of the footing and overhang of the existing seawall were located makai of the existing seawall and encroaching on state submerged lands; and

 

     WHEREAS, the Department of Land and Natural Resources' Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands had no objection to amend the non-exclusive easement to resolve the additional seawall encroachment; and

 

     WHEREAS, at its meeting of August 28, 2020, under agenda item D-10, the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved an amendment to the original non-exclusive easement to resolve the additional seawall encroachment; and

     WHEREAS, the grantees paid the State the fair market value of the sixteen square feet additional area of $1,240 as determined by the square foot value prorated by the original easement consideration approved by the Board of Land and Natural Resources; and
