quote:kalakoa, the same response to every single thing under discussion on this forum is wearing thin. Could you not start an "illegal subdivision" topic and put it in one place, and let other discussions address ... other topics?

Is it anything like the lessons taught by County's failure to enforce? (Or, as suggested, the creation of illegal subdivisions to begin with ... or perhaps the later refusal to allow any "neighborhood commercial" as suggested by the PCDP ... otherwise assuming that all those keiki live in fully-permitted dwellings ...)
Seems like all these problems are eventually related to Hawaii's "unique" system of land-use regulations. Rezoning the high-density ag subdivisions to match their actual residential use would fix many of these issues.
Your premise seems to be that as long as local government is not a perfect system for the people, that there should not be law enforcement. Government's imperfection is a fair topic for discussion, but it's not relevant to everything, and it's not an excuse for individuals and non-profit organizations to become scofflaws. (At least there are quite a lot of citizens who don't buy into that excuse, even though you might.)
