Title
CIVIL FINES FOR UNPERMITTED TRANSIENT ACCOMMODATIONS AND SERVICE METHODS FOR GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE ENFORCEMENT (PSLU-38)
Description
The Committee is in receipt of the following:
1. County Communication 19-307, from the Planning Director, transmitting a proposed bill to increase the maximum amount for the initial civil fine and the daily civil fine thereafter for the operation of a bed and breakfast home, short-term rental home, or transient vacation rental without a necessary permit to $20,000 and $10,000, respectively. The proposed bill also allows County department directors who are unable to serve a person with a notice of violation and order by mail or personal delivery, to either post the notice on the property where the violation is occurring or at the last known address of the violator, or publish a notice at least once a week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in Maui County.
2. Correspondence dated August 29, 2019, from the Department of the Corporation Counsel, transmitting a revised proposed bill entitled “A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 19.530.030, MAUI COUNTY CODE, RELATING TO CIVIL FINES FOR UNPERMITTED TRANSIENT ACCOMMODATIONS AND SERVICE METHODS FOR GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE ENFORCEMENT.” The revised proposed bill contains revisions to accurately describe the purpose of the bill and to clearly state that notices of violation and order must be appealed within thirty days after the delivery of the order.
Status
The Committee may consider whether to recommend passage of the revised proposed bill on first reading, with or without further revisions. The Committee may also consider the filing of County Communication 19-307 and other related action.
