The Maui Research and Technology Park (MRTP) is located in Kihei, Maui, Hawaii. The Park is situated mauka (east) of Pi’ilani Highway and is accessible from Lipoa Parkway. The MRTP encompasses approximately 414 acres owned in fee simple by various land owners. Maui R&T Partners, LLC (“Applicant”) owns approximately 231 acres and Haleakala Ranch is the owner of approximately 124 acres. Roadway lots and lands in ownership by others comprise the remaining acres. MRTP was established in the 1980’s to bring diversification to Maui’s economy through investment in high technology. Today the Park has over 180,000 square feet of office space, with over 400 people working in the Park at over 20 high technology and professional services companies.
Over the next 20 years, the Park desires to strengthen its competitive position by better servicing the unique needs of the knowledge industry community. The Park will accomplish this objective by incorporating greater flexibility into its land use controls. The Park will offer a greater diversity of lot sizes – from small to very large lots – together with the opportunity for more flexible building space. The Park will also embrace mixed-use development to offer greater convenience and a higher quality of life to employees by bringing housing choices and personal and professional services within walking and biking distance of work.
The park will be developed in two phases. Phase 1, through 2024, will include a mixed-use village center, knowledge-industry employment core, residential neighborhoods, schools and parks. Phase 2, through 2034, will include additional residential development and knowledge industry expansion campuses to the east and south. At build-out, in 2034, the Park will comprise knowledge industry, commercial, and civic uses totaling approximately 2 million square feet together with 1,250 single- and multi-family residences. It is estimated that 60% of the residential units will be single-family and 40% multi-family.
