that pedestrians could walk around the gate when it was closed, but large boulders scattered to the sides of the road prevented vehicles from going around.complaint about the closed gate with Maui County after receiving no response from Lanai Resorts. He told Civil Beat that the gate was closed even after the water subsided. He also said that it discriminates against disabled individuals who cannot get around the gate or the large rocks.
A metal gate was installed at Hulopoe Beach Park, which Larry Ellison owns. As seen in this photo taken on July 26, it was locked due to a flood, blocking access to the beach.The county responded to deJetley’s complaint by sending a letter of warning about the suggested violations and gave Lanai Resorts one day to comply.
“We have information that the park was closed during times when there were no severe weather emergencies or emergency proclamations that required the park to be closed,” the County of Maui wrote to Lanai Resorts in the warning letter dated Aug. 1. The gate has since been reopened, but residents worry this could happen again. DeJetley started a Change.orgasking for the gate to be completely removed, and sent a letter to the Hawaii attorney general this month.
“It was anticipated that the park would close because of flooding, but access to Hulopoe Bay must be maintained at all times,” it said. “I ask that you take action under HRS 115-10, requiring the landowner to remove these physical impediments that prevent access to Hulopoe Bay, such as the gate in question.”
