WHEREAS, a portion of the existing seawall and rock revetment fronting the property identified as Tax Map Key: (2) 3-9-012:003, Waiohuli-Keokea Homesteads, Kihei, Maui, was placed upon state submerged lands; and

Kean, Trustees of the Jennifer Downs Kean Revocable Living Trust dated October 1, 2015, worked with the Department of Land and Natural Resources to resolve the existing seawall and rock revetment encroachment; and
WHEREAS, the Department of Land and Natural Resources' Office of Conservation and Coastal Lands recommended disposition of the proposed shoreline easement in order to resolve the existing encroachment; and
WHEREAS, on June 9, 2017, under agenda item D-9, the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved a grant of a 55-year

WHEREAS, an easement survey conducted on December 12, 2018, subsequent to the June 9, 2017, Board of Land and Natural Resources meeting, identified a total encroaching area of 668 square feet, more or less, which now included portions of an existing concrete steps; and
WHEREAS, on April 26, 2019, under agenda item D-6, the Board of Land and Natural Resources approved amending the June 9, 2017 authorization to grant a 55-year non-exclusive easement to resolve the seawall and rock revetment encroachment, by adding a portion of the concrete steps as an additional encroachment to be resolved by way of the easement, and increasing the easement area from 650 square feet, more or less, to 668 square feet, more or less; and
WHEREAS, the total encroachment area was subsequently determined to be 668 square feet as reviewed and approved by the Department of Accounting and General Services' Survey Division; and
WHEREAS, the previous owners have paid the fair market value of the 668 square feet non-exclusive easement area of $27,700, as determined by an independent appraisal; and
WHEREAS, the previous owners have since sold the abutting real property to Andrew J. Guzzo and Paisly Hannah Bender; and
WHEREAS, section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes, requires prior authorization of the Legislature by concurrent resolution to lease state submerged lands; now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the Thirty-first Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2021, the Senate 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 fronting the property identified as Tax Map Key: (2) 3 9 012:003, Waiohuli-Keokea Homesteads, Kihei, Maui, for the existing seawall, rock revetment, and concrete steps, and for use, repair, and maintenance of the existing improvements constructed thereon pursuant to section 171-53, Hawaii Revised Statutes; and
