Once the building 1 repairs are complete, the scaffold and shoring will be dismantled. McIvor Construction will move the shoring materials to the lanais of units 6-101, 6-201, and 6-301. McIvor will set up their own scaffold and then Atlas Sales will have their crew install the shoring posts and beams on the lanais. McIvor Construction estimates one to two months for the spalling repairs on building 6. As progress is made McIvor Construction will begin to schedule the painting of building 6.

 

Currently they are estimating between 1.5 - 2 Months to complete each building for this work.

Keauhou Punahele 

Keauhou Punahele AOAO has contracted with West Hawaii Excavating (WHE) to install a new

sewer line along the west side of our property. We want to let all homeowners know in advance

that this work will be significant. WHE will need to clear a swath of vegetation 8’-12’ wide to install

the line. They will use an excavator/backhoe to dig a trench from 3’-6’ deep to lay the pipe. We

expect to run into large lava boulders or intact lava and will have to use a pneumatic rock hammer

to break this down to manageable sizes.

It will be noisy at times. There will be heavy equipment running, vibration, open trenches, gravel

hauling, and we will be closing-off areas that you may be used to using day to day. These

inconveniences are necessary for us to achieve the goal of a new reliable sewer line. We ask for all

homeowners and their guests to please anticipate these conditions, be patient, and comply with

all signage, flagging, roped off areas, etc.

Kona Isle 

Notice:

Please be advised that Benchmark Construction will begin repairs on the stairwell

located on the west (makai) end of the C Building on Monday, November 24th.

This stairwell will be closed for approximately 2–3 weeks.

Guests staying in the E Building and entering from the parking lot will need to use

the alternate route around the B Building. Work hours will be 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM,

Monday through Friday, with no weekend work scheduled.

KONA PLAZA 

 

Pool Closed 12/23/25- 1/9/26
We are sorry to announce the pool will continue to be closed, Tuesday December 23, 2025 to Friday January 9, 2026, due to re-construction of the pool ramp. We had a strict schedule for re-opening, unfortunately we had unforeseen repairs that must be completed to ensure the ramp is built properly.

Alii Cove – Upcoming Spalling Repair Project Notice

Please be advised that spalling repair work is scheduled to begin at Alii Cove on or around January 5, 2026.

Two separate contractors will be working simultaneously on different buildings throughout the complex:

• Contractor One will begin with the CC Building, followed by the EE and GG Buildings.

• Contractor Two will begin with the Q Building, followed by the S and V Buildings.

Although work may not be actively occurring on your specific building at all times, construction-related noise should be expected throughout the community during the project.

At this time, there is no fixed schedule, as the duration of repairs for each building will vary based on the extent of work required. In general, work will not take place in back lanai areas unless a visible issue is identified.

All 35 remaining buildings within the complex are expected to require some level of repair.

At this time, it is anticipated that the entire project will be completed in under 18 months.

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this important maintenance project.
