§262-7  Permits, hazard markings, and
lighting.  (a) Permits.  Any airport zoning regulations adopted under this
chapter may require that before any new structure, tree, or use may be
constructed, planted, or established, and before any existing use, tree, or
structure may be substantially changed, replanted, or substantially altered or
repaired, a permit be obtained authorizing such construction, planting,
establishment, change, replanting, alteration, or repair.  In any event, all
the regulations shall provide that before any nonconforming structure or tree
may be replaced, substantially altered or repaired, rebuilt, or replanted, a
permit must be secured from the department of transportation authorizing the
replacement, alteration, repair, rebuilding, or replanting.  No permit shall be
granted that would allow the establishment, maintenance, or creation of an
airport hazard.  Except as provided herein, all applications for permits shall
be granted.



(b)  Hazard markings and lighting.  In granting
any permit under this section, the director may, if the director deems such
action advisable to effectuate the purposes of this chapter and reasonable
under the circumstances, so condition such permit as to require the owner of
the structure or tree in question to permit the State, at its own expense, to
install, operate, and maintain thereon such markers and lights as may be
necessary to indicate to operators of aircraft the presence of an airport
hazard. [L 1965, c 140, pt of §1; Supp, §17A-7; HRS §262-7; gen ch 1985]
