IV. HPD and HFD REPORTS – Three (3) minutes each
A. Honolulu Police Department representative.

V. BOARD BUSINESS: COMMITTEE MOTION
A. The Kailua Neighborhood Board requests that a new geotechnical study be conducted prior to the transfer of 10 acres of public land on Kalaheo Hillside from the City & County of Honolulu to the Department of Hawaiian Homelands to ensure that the hillside soil is stable enough to do earth moving and build new homes on it without causing damage to existing homes.
Rationale:
(1) This motion is based on resident testimony and expressed concerns regarding the continuing soil slippage and instability of Kalaheo Hillside. The unstable soil causes cracks in residents’ home foundations and other structural damage even decades after their homes were built in the 1950s.
(2) Soil studies have shown that Kalaheo Hillside clay soil has very high expansion potential when subjected to moisture fluctuations and are often referred to locally as “adobe” clays. These “Kokokahi Series” soils tend to swell significantly when exposed to moisture and shrink when dried. Such soils are potentially capable of uplifting foundations and slabs, with resulting distress to the structures they support. In addition, these soils can settle significantly if saturated and/or poorly compacted.
(Planning, Zoning, and Environment Committee motion.)
