About this file

This is a Notice of Right to Post Tow Hearing document issued by the Hawaii Community Development Authority for vehicle impoundment procedures at the Kewalo Basin Harbor Diamond Head parking lot in Hawaii. The notice serves as a template for notifying vehicle owners whose vehicles have been towed from the parking facility, informing them of the reasons for impoundment and their available remedies. The document outlines the towing contractor's role in removing vehicles on behalf of the Hawaii Community Development Authority and provides contact information for the Authority's Asset Management department located at 547 Queen Street, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813.

Vehicle owners have two primary options following impoundment: they may recover possession by paying applicable towing and storage fees, or they may dispute the impoundment through administrative channels. Owners electing to contest the impoundment must file a written demand for a hearing with the Hawaii Community Development Authority's Asset Management office within five working days of learning their vehicle was towed. The demand must include the owner's name, vehicle license plate number, tow date, and explanation of why the impoundment was unjustified, along with contact information for hearing notification. If the vehicle has not been recovered, the hearing must be held within 48 hours of filing the demand, excluding weekends and state holidays; otherwise, the hearing will be scheduled within a reasonable timeframe. A determination in the vehicle owner's favor requires the release of the vehicle without payment of fees or a full refund of all towing, storage fees, fines, and penalties previously paid.
