It seems silly to think that there is no water to flush a toilet on and island surrounded by thousands of miles of water.

"Brittany Kaleohano said the water tanks at the recreation area were empty. She said they weren't sure why they were empty. She added that they were able to get the tanks filled though and reopen the park.
Kaleohano said she didn't know what, if any, cost was involved."

Maybe they thought they were magic water tanks?

Let's see.
Places not under county control in the same region: Pohakuloa Military Camp, the VIS on Mauna Kea, Hale Pohaku and the observatories, and various ranchers. All of them seem to have their act together to arrange water delivery.
Places under county control: Mauna Kea Park. Enough said.

All of them seem to have their act together to arrange water delivery.
Yet somehow County couldn't manage to ask any of them about their water source.
How did they qualify for a certificate of occupancy with no water source?
Rules and laws only apply to privately-funded projects; if you're taking out bond debt against the "full faith and credit of the taxpayers", other pesky requirements can simply be ignored.
