Are u aware that building permits expired (15/16) years ago?
In other words, there's a strong possibility that the original permits were pulled before December 21 1996, thereby making the building eligible for amnesty as defined in section 25-4-1.
Alternately, it could be argued that the building is structurally sound simply because it's remained standing the entire time.
Downtown Pahoa is "open to the public" despite actual ongoing violations of code, zoning, health, and ADA compliance. Maybe start there?
