Kaio ʻohana four-lot family subdivision (Bill 28, 2026 / HLU-9)

Maui County

Description

The family wants to turn their 12.8-acre macadamia nut farm into four lots for their three daughters and heirs. The committee recommended approval with a condition that the project match what was promised, and the bill now goes to the full Council for first reading.

Impact summary

Three new family lots near St. Anne's Church in Waihehu, with water served by a mix of county meters and a private ag water system, and possible future access off Kahekili Highway. Minimal neighborhood impact, members agreed — and possibly slower traffic on Heʻaheʻa Place.

Kaio ʻohana four-lot family subdivision in Wailuku

A local family wants to split their 12.8-acre macadamia nut farm into four lots so their three daughters — all teachers — can build homes and stay on Maui. It's one of the first uses of a rarely-invoked code section allowing extra ag lots for family members, so the committee wrestled with how to make sure the lots don't end up sold to non-family buyers later.
