How land can be added to a district

Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗

This section explains when the county council can add land to an existing district. It can do so if the council decides it is needed for public convenience, or if all the landowners in that area ask for it. The council then passes an ordinance to make the annexation official.

If the council determines that public convenience and necessity require that territory be added to an existing district, or if one hundred percent of the landowners (or lessees described in section 32-27) in the territory to be annexed petition the council to include territory within the district, the council may adopt an ordinance of annexation to annex the territory.
