History
The predecessor to the Property Technical Office, The Bureau of Taxation Maps' function is to supervise the operations of Hawaii’s tax map system for the classification of real property and to develop uniform classification and valuation systems for use in property assessments. Their functions are documented in the Cancelled Tax Map Prints (Series 278). Cancelled Tax Map Prints show all parcels of land in the mapped area. The prints contain land ownership information and illustrates the Tax Map Key System which assigned each parcel a unique four-part numerical identification.
