Partly inside (about 26% of the lot) the tsunami evacuation zone
For any Tsunami Warning evacuate out of these areas. Partly inside (about 74% of the lot) the extreme tsunami zone as well. The county Tsunami District in KCC § 8-12.8 is a different map: the code keys it to the FEMA coastal high hazard areas, so read the flood card for zone V or VE. KCC Article 12.

Water and wastewater service
Partly inside (about 89% of the lot) the county water service area; outside every mapped sewer service area, so wastewater is handled on the lot
Service areas are the county's 2020 polygons; a written availability answer comes from the Department of Water, (808) 245-5400. Act 045 (2026) requires the Department to post a service map and a restricted-areas list by January 1, 2029 and to answer written requests for lots of three units or fewer within 45 days.
