The CoH has to rethink zoning and building codes

[mella l]

quote "Following that mistake the current losses are compounded by ongoing code requirements which increased the costs of construction across the board there."

Job security or make work in updating and writing new codes.

A friend had a permitted and inspected home in Hawaiian Beaches. The bank now owns that house.

After asking the county, and the bank for help in holding the builder responsible and or getting help repairing their home that was basically falling into a home, they abandon the house basically because it was falling into a green pit where all the albesia and other building and green waste was stashed underneath the home.

So I agree allow what ever people want to build in zone 1 and leave them alone.

So my curiosity is how does this work; If I lost my home in Kapoho do I still owe property taxes after the loss? Without fire insurance and with a mortgage I would owe house payments.

Tiny homes on wheels would be a good idea as would mobile homes which are not allowed in Hawaii, (why I do not know).
