Hearing in Lumeria Maui violation appeal continued to Sept. 24; filing deadline set for Sept. 10
Summary
At its June 25 meeting, the Maui County Board of Variances and Appeals agreed to continue the hearing on MRC Partners LLC’s appeal of a Notice of Violation tied to Lumeria Maui and set a new hearing date of Sept. 24, 2026, with documents due Sept. 10, 2026.
Deputy Corporation Counsel Chair David Weiss convened the Board of Variances and Appeals on June 25, 2026, and heard a scheduling request in the appeal by MRC Partners LLC of a Notice of Violation alleging breaches of Conditions 3 and 8 of Ordinance 3990 related to Lumeria Maui, located at 1813 Baldwin Avenue, Makawao (case BVAA2022-0009).
Chris Goodin, representing the appellant, told the Board that "they have engaged in several settlement conferences with the County" and asked to continue the hearing because the parties needed at least one more meeting. Both parties agreed on a new hearing date of Sept. 24, 2026, and set a deadline of Sept. 10, 2026, for filing documents; the Board recorded no objections to that scheduling arrangement.
The minutes note the next regular Board meeting is July 9, 2026. The case remains pending; the continuance schedules the next formal hearing but does not resolve the underlying Notice of Violation or the allegations tied to Ordinance 3990. The meeting was adjourned at 1:41 p.m., and the record of attendance lists David Weiss (Chair), Harry Hecht (Vice-Chair), Joe Wilson, Deborah Vial, and Mihaela Stoops as present; Alison Grimes was excused.
No formal vote on the merits was taken at this session. The Board’s action, recorded as a continuance by agreement of the parties, moves the case forward to the September hearing and preserves the parties’ opportunity to continue settlement discussions before that date.
