RESOLUTION

 

 

AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A TERM, NON-EXCLUSIVE EASEMENT COVERING A PORTION OF STATE SUBMERGED LANDS AT KAILUA, KOOLAUPOKO, OAHU, FOR ROCK BLANKET AND REVETMENT PURPOSES.

 

 

 


     WHEREAS, on July 18, 1924, the 19,103 square foot, "lot 29," was parceled out pursuant to land court application 616, map 1, which also indicated the shoreline "boundary of all lots along the high water mark at seashore"; and

 

     WHEREAS, the property was developed with a single-family dwelling built in 1938; and

 

     WHEREAS, on April 17, 1963, there was a 1,688 square foot accretion to lot 29 indicated on land court application 616, map 60, increasing the total area of lot 29 to 20,791 square feet; and

 

     WHEREAS, a second single-family dwelling, along with a non-conforming shoreline protection structure as identified by the City and County of Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting, was built in 1966; and

 

     WHEREAS, there exists a rock blanket located seaward of the seawall and within lands designated as a conservation district; and

 

     WHEREAS, the area of encroachment of the rock blanket is approximately 814 square feet; and

 

     WHEREAS, research done by the Department of Land and Natural Resources Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands has determined that there is insufficient evidence to find whether the rock blanket was constructed prior to the adoption and administration of land use regulations for conservation districts by the Board of Land and Natural Resources in 1964; and

 

     WHEREAS, on October 11, 2013, under agenda item D-4, the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved the request of Global Spring Management Hawaii LLC, the owners of the lot, for a non-exclusive easement, pending the payment of an appraised fair market value for the easement; 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 Senate of the Twenty-seventh Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2014, the House of Representatives 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 lands identified as tax map key (1) 4-3-003:  seaward of 65, at Kailua, Koolaupoko, Oahu, Hawaii for rock blanket and revetment purposes; and

 

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this Concurrent Resolution be transmitted to the Governor and Chairperson of the Board of Land and Natural Resources.

Lanikai; Easement; Seawall; Department of Land and Natural Resources
