COH is County of Hawaii. If they jump all the way from our current codes (which are something like 10 years out of date) to the current codes, it will be a huge jump. A lot of building codes were changed after the San Francisco area earthquake to make buildings more earthquake-resistent (and I heard that the tsumani in 2004 caused some other code changes, but I can't verify that).
The short answer is that building will be more difficult and the inspections more thorough (at least in theory).
