I am the owner and I am in compliance since I purchased the home in 2009 with the TVR permits. I renew and produce all the required documentation to the state every year. I pay TAT GET taxes to the state of Hawaii every year. I have a management company on island. I continue to alert my potential vacation renters of the abuse, see my VRBO advertisement for the notification to my guests of the abuse. I also notify my potential guests that I am in compliance and have been doing this for a very long time. Here is what I tell them: <br />FYI… Make sure you rent from someone who has a TVR permit and from a reputable company (licensed management company).<br />We are one of only a few of licensed/permitted and established vacation rentals in Haena that pay taxes to the state of Hawaii. Our TVR permit is proudly displayed in our window as mandated and on our web sites. Others do not have the TVR permit or someone on island managing their home, but will tell you they do. Many are renting w/o complying with these laws and “you” maybe at risk if they are discovered with extremely large fines, etc. <br />Read Hawaii Act 326 which became law effective July 1, 2012. It requires operators of transient accommodations (vacation rentals) to do the following:<br />• Designate a local contact residing on the same island as the transient accommodation <br />• Provide the local contact’s contact information to any entity with covenants, bylaws, or administrative provisions operational with respect to the property on which the transient accommodations exists (an association of owners). <br />• Include the local contact’s name and phone number in any contract or written rental agreement.<br />• Provide on a website or by online link and display in all advertisements and solicitations on websites the registration identification number issued under HRS 237 D-4. (The TAT license number and GET).<br /><br />I love Kauai and plan on retiring there and contributing to the community in many beneficial ways.

These liars must be put into jail. <br /><br />These TVR's puts people's lives at risk by being in the flood zone. Where are the taxes on that TVR income? I bet they weren't declared. <br /><br />Meanwhile, these TVR's are STEALING OUR BEACHES, taking away public parking, and putting our groundwater at risk with multiple people using those outdated septic tanks. They are also CRIME MAGNETS because the criminals know where the TVR's are. <br /><br />In addition, these TVR's take away jobs at our hotels and raise the prices of homes that locals can no longer afford. STOP these TVR's.
