Kamehameha Schools Admits Hawaiian Families Were Displaced for Resort Development | Keauhou Bay Laws

I'm going to court Nov. 9th at 9am to try and save Keauhou Bay from an "Alleged" Unlawful FEIS by Kamehameha Schools and the County. You're welcome to sit in the courtroom for added support to this cause. 

Kamehameha Schools' own Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) acknowledges that Native Hawaiian families were displaced from lands they owned at Keauhou Bay to make way for resort development.

The FEIS states:

“In 1964, the Keauhou Development Corporation (KDC) established the Kuleana Acquisition Program that displaced Native Hawaiian ‘ohana from lands they owned at Keauhou Bay to make way for the future development plans by KDC for the Keauhou Resort.”

Source: FEIS Volume I, page 4-19 (PDF page 169).

Now, Kamehameha Schools proposes additional resort lodging and commercial development at Keauhou Bay, a place of profound Hawaiian cultural and historical significance.

I am representing myself in Hawaiʻi's Third Circuit Court, challenging the County's acceptance of the FEIS, including concerns about environmental impacts, endangered marine species, water quality, cultural practices, and community access.

Court Case: Civil No. 3CCV-25-0000438
Join me Hearing: November 9, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.

This case challenges the legal adequacy of the environmental review. The historical land displacement is documented in the FEIS, but the court has not ruled that those historical acquisitions were unlawful.
