What are the Requirements to Erect a Temporary Dwelling on My property?
Property must have been issued a Debris Clean-up Certificate. All temporary dwelling units must have a temporary building permit prior to placement on a property and occupancy. All temporary dwelling units must connect to the County sewer system or a State Department of Health approved individual wastewater system, except for Wahikuli where cesspool connection is allowed. All temporary structures must meet Maui County Fire Code, including access requirements. Temporary building permit approval requires the temporary dwelling unit to have a signed certification from a State of Hawaii licensed professional (structural engineer or architect) and State of Hawaii licensed electrical and plumbing contractor. Temporary dwelling units located in the Shoreline Management Area, Flood Hazard Zone, Historic Districts 1, 2, or 3, the National Historic Landmark Boundary, planned development, or a project district may require relevant permit approvals. Additional Rules Relating to Temporary Structures can be found in the current Mayor's Emergency Proclamation Relating to Wildfires.
