Mahalo, bananahead. Good information, again.
Some land owners are forced to sell lands, in order to preserve other lands...(not saying that is the case in this instance with regard to Shipman). Taxes and expenses to maintain an "ahapua'a", especially since Statehood, are a challenge. I live it.
Our ohana has been forced to sell lands, to maintain what is ours by birthright, due to land (property) taxes.
It's a wonderful country, isn't it?
