All,
I just spoke to the Planning Department in Hilo, and was told that the Planned Unit Development request was approved in July 2015. Apparently, there is a 30 day clock to file an appeal with the Board of Appeals and he didn't see anything in the files indicating that it was being appealed, so in his view, it appeared that Hilton had what it needed to proceed.
It will be interesting to see if we get an announcement on this property, or if they will defer any construction while they complete Phase 3 at KL, and Grand Islander. It probably makes most sense to begin construction in 2017 and finish in 2019, after the inventory from KL and GI have been sold.
Interesting.
Best,
Greg
