(“TDI”), the current lessee for the Uncle Billy’s property (“Uncle Billy’s”), is honored to submit this Response to the RFI. As you are aware, TDI has completed the redevelopment of the Grand Naniloa Hotel, a Doubletree by Hilton (“Grand Naniloa” or “Hilton”). TDI has used good faith for 9 months to save DLNR significant costs (likely over $100,000) in securing the Uncle Billy’s grounds from vandalism and negative impacts after its closure. TDI has the greatest interest in Banyan Drive and is committed to assist in the full redevelopment of Banyan Drive at the same standards as the Hilton. Thus, we are confident that TDI is the appropriate, and qualified Hawaii developer to complete the demolition, and re-construction of the site. Through its extensive 20-year Hawaii experience in development, demolition, environmental remediation, construction and financing, and 4-year development experience specifically on Banyan Drive, TDI is excited to continue the success with Uncle Billy’s redevelopment. For the last two (2) years, and also during the nine (9) months since TDI was issued the RP 5-7905 for Uncle Billy’s, we have been patiently planning for the redevelopment and have procured the most qualified team to complete the project for the benefit of DLNR and the County, State, Hilo and the surrounding community.

H.B. 2432 amends the definition of “gross rental” or “gross rental proceeds” in section 237D-1, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), to clarify that resort fees, defined as any mandatory charge or surcharge imposed by an operator, owner, or representative for the use of the transient accommodation’s property, services, or amenities, are included in gross rental proceeds and therefore subject to the transient accommodations tax (TAT). The bill is effective on July 1, 2018. Resort fees, also known as amenity fees and facility fees, are fees that are added to the nightly rate of transient accommodations. The components of resort fees vary greatly between transient accommodations, but often include amenities that were previously built into the nightly rate, such as in-room internet access, in-room water and coffee, use of an in-room safe, pool towels, access to pools, access to a fitness center, parking, and housekeeping.
