What's Being Discussed

Parker Ranch Quarry Expansion (West Hawaii Concrete): The Commission will consider a request to expand an existing rock quarry in Waikoloa, South Kohala from about 143 acres to about 223 acres — an addition of roughly 80 acres. The request also asks to extend the quarry's operating permit through September 30, 2057, with an option for another 20 years after that.
Honoipu Hideaway Settlement (North Kohala): Earlier this year, the Commission denied a property owner's request to reinterpret land use boundaries for about 17.5 acres on Old Coast Guard Road. The property owner has since submitted a settlement proposal, and the Commission will discuss whether to accept, reject, or modify it.
Meeting Minutes: Approval of minutes from the September 23, 2026 meeting.
Upcoming Meeting Schedule: Announcements about future meeting dates.

Decisions Expected

A vote on whether to approve the quarry expansion and permit extension for West Hawaii Concrete in Waikoloa.
A decision on how to respond to the Honoipu Hideaway settlement proposal, which could include accepting, rejecting, or modifying the offer — or reconsidering the Commission's earlier denial.
The Commission may hold closed executive sessions on both matters to consult with legal counsel.
