MEDIA RELEASE

The Department of Land and Natural Resources is advertising industrial and commercial lands for lease. Legal notices for two of the properties have already been published and others will be published in the near future.

“The renewed focus to solicit and issue long-term leases on vacant or soon-to-become vacant state lands is fundamental to DLNR’s Recreational Renaissance plan to care for our public outdoor recreational facilities, as it will help generate additional revenues – mainly from commercial, industrial-type, and resort-type leases, to support improvements in state parks, harbors and trails,” Chairwoman Laura H. Thielen said. “It’s basic — Public Lands for Public Places.”

Listings include: two parcels totaling 105 acres in east Kapolei designated for transit-oriented development and urban land uses, six vacant industrial-zoned lots in the Waipahu Mill Town Business Park, a 110-acre parcel located within the Campbell Industrial Park on Oahu, and approximately 13.7 acres, or 596,780 sq. ft., of currently limited industrial zoned properties situated in Waiakea, South Hilo.

DLNR will update this list of properties and any pertinent information periodically.

Inquires about the Department’s Revenue Generating Properties may be directed to Keith Chun, planning and development manager at 587-0440, or Gavin Chun, project development specialist, at 587-0419.
