HCC §35-5
How a district can accept and repay advance payments
Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗After a district is formed, its board can accept money, work, or property from anyone. The board can agree to pay back the money or reimburse the value of the work or property, with or without interest, but only if the repayment plan was in the formation ordinance. The repayment cannot be a county debt or paid from anything other than special assessments.

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.
After the formation of a district, the district board may accept advances of funds, work, or property in kind from any source. The district board may enter into an agreement with the person or entity advancing the funds, work, or property in kind to repay all or a portion of the funds advanced or to reimburse the person or entity for the value or cost, whichever is less, of the work or property in-kind, as determined by the district board, with or without interest; provided that the proposal to repay the funds or reimburse the value or cost of the work or property in kind is included in the ordinance of formation for the district. Any such agreement shall not constitute a debt or liability of the County or be payable from sources other than the proceeds of the special assessments levied pursuant to this chapter.
