Not an official explanation but is my understanding:

A subdivision which is divided up in such a way that some properties are behind others without street frontage except for property the width of a driveway, the flag pole. You will drive down the street and see only the front lots. All you will see of the flag lots is the driveway. In my case, the division was such that a very few of the flag lots actually ended up with street frontage. I have frontage on one street and the flagpole(driveway) fronts another. Other propertys on that street have frontage and the flagpole goes between two of them. It's not just deeded access, it's the actual shape of the lot.

Subdivision is a number of lots that used to be one parcel that was cut up to smaller pieces regardless of the size or location of the new lots within the subdivision. Subdivisions have various subdivision documents (like Bylaws, CC&R's, etc.) that were recorded at the Bureau of Cenveyences.

John,
A good concise explanation of a subdivision, thanks.

Maybe you can give Carrie a better answer to:
"What's a "Flag Lot?"

Carrie"

I did my best!

May I just say I love the name "Oink?" It's awesome. I kinda get it with the flag lot thing. Sounds actually like it would add a little more privacy being tucked away like that, but then you are very close to another property, yeah?

"What's a flag lot?" I can't give a better description than yours, "it's the actual shape of the lot." However, it does not necessary mean it's more private.

Thanks, oink and some others that pointed out to me that I must have mentally reversed the two subdivisions in my head. For some reason, I do that with those two. Mental block of some kind.

Hey, I never said I was perfect, just teachable.

Which Subdivisions allow chickens? Beaches does, but HSRE doesn't? How about HPP?

[jdirgo]

Only the subdivisions with active CC&Rs (Codes, Covenents and Restrictions) prohibit "livestock" like chickens. Those would be:
Leilani
Hawaiian Shores Recreation Estates
Nanawale (although there's a lot of wild chickens there)
Aina Pua -- not sure on that one, but I think so
Ainaloa is another one that I'd be questionable on -- they haven't in the past, but do seem to be getting more organized and might have a rule against it (Lee G -- help me out here)

That's about all with restrictions. The main thing is if you neighbors complain, anywhere, it could be an issue. People don't usually complain as long as its not roosters crowing day and night.

John, you must be from the Old School, the CC&R's stand for "Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions" now.
