When most landowners object to a new district
Read the official text at library.municode.com ↗If more than 55% of the landowners in a proposed district file written objections before or at the hearing, the district creation stops. If the objections are only about a specific improvement or tax, the district can still be created but without that improvement or tax. No new attempt can be made for one year.

The ordinance, as written (Maui County) — Protest by more than 55 percent
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.
If the owners of more than 55 percent of the land or if more than 55 percent of the
owners of the land proposed to be included in the district file written protests with
the council before or at the hearing against the establishment of the district and
if protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce the amount of the protests to 55 percent
or less, the proceedings to create the specified district shall cease. No proceedings
to create the district shall again be undertaken for a period of one year from the
close of the hearing. If the more than 55 percent protests are only against the furnishing
of a specified special improvement or against levying a specified special tax, then
proceedings to create the district may continue, but the specified special improvement
or special tax shall not be part of the applicable ordinance of formation (if approved).
