A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Maui County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.

A. A large lot shall be defined as a parcel of land that is resubdividable into four or more lots within the requirements of title 19 . B. In subdividing tracts into large lots which at some future time are likely to be resubdivided, the director may require that the blocks be of such size and shape, be so divided into lots and contain such building site restrictions as will provide for extension and opening of streets at intervals which will permit a subsequent subdivision of any large lot. C. For large lots, improvements along adjacent streets may be deferred with the approval of the director; provided, that the subdivider or owner, his heirs and assigns agree to provide deferred improvements upon actual development or future resubdivision of each large lot except, however, that new large lots created by resubdivision may also defer improvements as provided in this section, and observe the following building restrictions: 1. For residential zoned areas, and those areas designated rural and agricultural by the state land use commission, no more than one dwelling per lot is permitted. Utilities such as sewer and electricity will be required for all lots. Water requirements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the department of water supply shall be installed. For large lots, the size of utilities may be based on the minimum requirement for one dwelling per lot; and 2. For business, industrial, hotel, and apartment zoned areas, no structures will be built. These restrictions would terminate upon installation of all improvements required by this title. Water requirements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the department of water supply shall be installed. (Ord. 2217 § 1, 1993: Ord. 1649 § 2, 1987: Ord. 789 § 1 (part), 1974: prior code § 11-1.9(f))
