In some of the matters before the Board, a person may wish to request a contested case hearing. If such a request is made before the Board’s decision, then the Board will consider the request first – before considering the merits of the item before it. A person who wants a contested case may also wait until the Board decides the issue, then request the contested case after the decision. It is up to you. Any request must be made orally by the end of the meeting and followed up in writing within ten days. If no request for contested case is made, the Board will make a decision. The Department will treat the decision as final and proceed accordingly.

Staff recommends an Amendment of the 1995 Extension to Eliminate all Terms and Conditions Therein That Are Inconsistent with General Lease No. S-4649 as Sold at Public Auction (except for the increase in the duration of the lease);

The purposes of the current amendment are for the Board to: (1) delete that portion of the Board’s May 11, 2018 action under Item D-1 that specified the lessee would remain Ficker & Hunt, a Hawaii Partnership, and instead reinstate that portion of the Board’s action of July 28, 2017, Item D-10, consenting to the assignment of an undivided fifty percent (50%) interest in the canceled Ficker & Hunt partnership registered September 8, 1982 from Albert Ficker, as assignor, to Chester Hunt, as assignee, and confirming that Chester Hunt thereby became the lessee under the lease as tenant in severalty; (2) consent to the assignment of the lease from Chester Hunt, as assignor, to Ficker & Hunt, a Hawaii Partnership registered on May 23, 2018, as assignee; (3) ratify the consent to sublease approved at its meeting of May 11, 2018, Item D-1, with the clarification that Ficker & Hunt, a Hawaii Partnership registered on May 23, 2018 is the sublessor and the United States Postal Service is the sublessee; (4) ratify the 20-year extension of lease approved at its meeting of May 11, 2018, Item D-1, with the clarification that Ficker & Hunt, a Hawaii Partnership registered on May 23, 2018 is the lessee in the extension period; and (5) change a portion of the improvements required for the lease extension by replacing “reconstruction of the apron connecting the parking lot to the road” with “replacing two rooftop air conditioning units,” and find that lessee’s expenditure of $114,393.15 for improvements to the premises is sufficient for the lease extension.
