Kaio ʻohana four-lot family subdivision in Wailuku
Maui County
Summary
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.

Impact analysis
The family faces about $27,000 in park dedication fees plus a roughly $2,978 processing fee, subdivision fees, and building permit fees; some members want to waive park fees for essential-worker family subdivisions in the future.
The Kaio ʻohana — three teacher daughters, eight grandchildren, and future generations — get a path to affordable family land on Maui.
