Description

HAWAIIAN OCEAN VIEW ESTATES Road Maintenance Corporation A little about the community and RMC. Located on the southernmost part of the Big Island of Hawaii, Hawaiian Ocean View Estates (HOVE) is America's largest subdivision. HOVE covers over eighteen square miles -- almost twelve thousand acres -- contains roughly 11,500 lots and has 157 miles of road. Development began in the late 1950s, and a trust fund was established by the developer for the maintenance of the many miles of road (equivalent to about halfway around the island!). Over time, the trust fund proved inadequate, and by the early 80s, many of our roads were virtually impassable without a 4-wheel drive. HOVE Road Maintenance Corporation (RMC), a 501(c)(4) nonprofit corporation, was established by the Hawaii Third Circuit Court in 1983 for the purpose of rebuilding and maintaining the roads within the subdivision, without assistance or support from the County or State. According to local remembrance, we started out with "a truck, two shovels, and a bucket of bitumen." In 1985 RMC acquired some second-hand equipment, and began rebuilding in earnest. Today, Ocean View has the best privately-maintained roads on the island, and perhaps in the state. As the population of our area continues to grow, we are constantly pressed to keep pace with the times and traffic conditions. "Road Maintenance" now includes stop and street signs, line markings, road patching, repair and resurfacing, shoulder maintenance and line-of-sight clearing. All lot owners of the HOVE subdivision are members of the Road Maintenance Corporation. This web site has been developed for the purpose of keeping members informed, and making it easier to communicate with the Board of Directors and the Office Staff. Back to Home Page
