@ Seeb,
You would be speaking of the small parcels near the ocean?
Curious situation there.
HPPOA turned those over to the County some years ago and zero has been done with them, although people -- including non-HPP residents -- regularly use HPP roads to access those parcels and use them for fishing and whale viewing (that is called a 'public purpose' and the idea of 'private roads' has no relevance). The County won't even pick up the trash from their own parcels.
After Fred Blas manipulated the derailment of money for an HPP park on a 20-acre site, so that money could be put in Pahoa, HPPOA asked the County to return the small parcels to HPPOA so the community could do something there. The County said it could not transfer the title to the small parcel because they are on the coastline...
So, that would, as you suggest, Seeb, appear to put the onus back on the County to do something.
