I quit making pools last year, opting instead to concentrate on our ferrocement water tanks www.pacificgunite.com . I have been directing pool inquiries to my son Tyson who owns Akamai Pools http://www.agpoolsplus.com/ . He does nice work but forget about your friend being in a hurry. The planning department lost his recent SMA application for an ocean front pool in HPP. Three months later it turned up and now it finally goes to the building department. Another pool permit that he picked up last week took him almost 3 months to get through just the building department. We call this Hawaiian Time. What's your hurry? You'll still want to swim in a year from now...Kind of makes it hard to run a business.
