Hawaii HB811 establishes penalties for property owners who fail to address zoning violations.

Hawaii HB811 amends the state's residential real property laws to impose penalties on property owners who do not address zoning violations. If a property owner receives a notice of violation and fails to remediate the issue within the specified time frame, they will be fined $1,000 per day. If the fines exceed $5,000, the notice of violation becomes a lien on the property. The county planning or permitting agency can also initiate foreclosure proceedings if the owner does not satisfy the lien and remediate the violation within thirty days of receiving notice.
