RESOLUTION

 

 

Authorizing THE ISSUANCE OF A FIFTY-FIVE YEAR TERM, NON-EXCLUSIVE EASEMENT COVERING A PORTION OF STATE SUBMERGED LANDS AT PUAMANA, LAHAINA, MAUI, FOR VARIOUS SEAWALL STRUCTURES, A CONCRETE GROIN, AND REVETMENT FOOTINGS OF A HISTORIC SWIMMING POOL.

 

 


     WHEREAS, the Puamana Community Association owns the property located at 34 Puailima Place, Lahaina, Hawaii, further identified by tax map key: (2) 4-6-028:001; and

 

     WHEREAS, the seawall structures, built in the 1930s, follow along the shoreline and provide stability and necessary coastal protection for the property; and

 

     WHEREAS, the concrete groin and revetment footings represent part of a historic swimming pool that was built in the 1930s as part of a former plantation manager's residence; and

 

     WHEREAS, it was later determined that portions of the seawall structures, the concrete groin, and revetment footings of the historic swimming pool encumber a total of 1,895 square feet of state submerged land; and

 

     WHEREAS, the Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands of the Department of Land and Natural Resources has determined that the structures are existing and non-conforming, in that they were constructed prior to October 1964 and prior to the subject land being designated as a conservation district; and

 

     WHEREAS, on October 26, 2012, under agenda item D-6, the Board of Land and Natural Resources granted approval for a fifty-five year term, non-exclusive easement to the Puamana Community Association for five shoreline encroachments (identified as Easements "E-1" through "E-5" in the February 2012 Application for Request for State Lands) for the seawall structures, the concrete groin, and the revetment footings of the historic swimming pool; 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 2013, the House of Representatives concurring, that the Board of Land and Natural Resources is authorized to issue a term, non-exclusive easement covering a portion of state submerged lands fronting the property identified as tax map key: (2) 4-6-028:001 at Puamana, Lahaina, Maui, for the use, maintenance, repair, replacement, and removal of the existing seawall structures, the concrete groin and the revetment footings of the historic swimming pool over, under, and across state-owned land pursuant to section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes; and

 

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