Birchl - This is happening daily all over Hawaii the Island.
We even had the county inspectors come to our home at 4nD as we had applied for a permit for a 20x40 garage - stand alone. This was last week Tuesday about 9:10am. The same county vans ( 3 ) . Maybe they had a long list of other inspections to do,and each needed separate vehicles to do each inspection.
Upon the surprise visit from the building inspectors we were informed that the garage doors that were included in the original plans,were not to county specs by a mere 1/4 of an inch .
Now we are re doing the plans and taking out the garage doors in order to get the needed permit up to their standards. Soon to get the final - The solar - plumbing - framing and everything else already passed and done all by known licensed and bonded general contractors , as required by law. At every phase we do call the inspectors in but in same breath,it has been a relief to know our county building inspectors are doing a good job in all they do.
We do not think this is harassment,they are doing this all over the county . It has nothing to do with being on any board or anything else. It could be a neighbor who may be upset with your dogs,maybe called the humane society who may of visited when you were not home and saw something a miss,who then called the inspectors .
Or as you say,an art student and may not be home if dogs bark all day long when you are not home. Stuff happens - it is not just a Hawaiian Acres issue,but a county of Hawaii issue. It has been in the news many times in the last few years,maybe now they are finally doing something about it . We have heard of similar spot inspections in HPP - Leilani - H.A. - Orchid Land - Tiki Gardens - Honomu town - Volcano - Pahala - H.O.V.E and beyond . Chalk it up to the inspectors just doing their job Hawaii Island style.
