Mailed notice of hearing to landowners and lessees
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗The clerk must mail a notice about the hearing to every landowner and lessee in the proposed district that the director has on record, at least 15 days before the hearing. The mailed notice must have the same information as the published notice. If someone doesn't get the notice, the hearing can still go forward if the council decides a reasonable effort was made.

In addition to publishing notice as provided in section 32-22, the clerk shall give notice of the hearing by first-class mail to each owner of land within the proposed district, and to each lessee of property within the proposed district, which the director has on record. This notice shall be mailed at least fifteen days before the hearing and shall contain the same information required to be contained in the published notice pursuant to section 32-22. Failure to give notice to any landowner or lessee or failure of any landowner or lessee to receive such notice shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the hearing or any other proceedings taken under this chapter or any special tax levied under this chapter if the council determines that a reasonable effort was made to give such notice, which determination shall be final and conclusive.
