A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Hawaiʻi County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.
(a) Each application for a subdivision (including consolidation) is subject to the payment of the following fee: $250 plus $25 per lot noted on the initial preliminary plat or cluster plan development and for each additional lot resulting from any subsequent amendment of the initial preliminary plat exclusive of any lots set aside for roadway or easement purposes or lands dedicated for public use. (b) These fees shall not apply to subdivision of land into burial or crematory lots within the confines of duly established cemetery areas; provided that a processing fee will be filed as follows: $100 per acre and proportionate fee for fraction of acre thereof. (c) The payment of the filing fee shall be made at the planning department’s office and payable to the director of finance. No portion of the fee is refundable for applications granted tentative subdivision approval. A portion of fee equivalent to ten percent of the fee or $50, whichever is greater, shall be retained for applications which have been withdrawn or denied before granted tentative approval.
