  • Planning Committee
    COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF MAUI PLANNING COMMITTEE November 6, 2015 Committee Report No. Honorable Chair and Members of the County Council County of Maui Wailuku, Maui, Hawaii Chair and Members: Your Planning Committee, having met on August 6, 2015, August 20, 2015, and September 24, 2015, makes reference to County Communication 15-66, from the Planning Director, transmitting a proposed bill entitled "A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 19.04, MAUI COUNTY CODE, RELATING TO GENERAL PROVISION AND DEFINITIONS." The purposes of the proposed bill are to establish within the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance a definition for "wet bar" and to limit the number of wet bars in dwelling units. A wet bar is an area within a dwelling unit that contains a small sink and limited refrigeration or small appliances for making beverages. Your Committee notes the Lanai, Maui, and Molokai planning commissions recommended approval of the proposed bill. The Planning Director informed your Committee the Department considers wet bars to be "kitchens" as defined in Section 19.04.040, Maui County Code. This interpretation has led to the denial of building permits for dwelling units containing both a kitchen and one or more wet bars because dwelling units are allowed only a single kitchen. Separately defining wet bars would enable the Administration to distinguish kitchens from wet bars when reviewing building permits. The Director further informed your Committee the proposed bill will help address the proliferation of illegal vacation rentals. Regulating the number of wet bars permitted in a dwelling unit will lessen the potential of a dwelling unit being converted into a vacation rental.
