                                   RE:  S.B. No. 2299
                                        S.D. 1




Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B.
No. 2299, S.D. 1, entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO HARBORS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to exclude Piers 1 and 2 at Fort
Armstrong from the Kakaako Community Development District.

     Your Committee finds that it is important to preserve the
maritime cargo facilities of Piers 1 and 2 because these
facilities would be both expensive to replace and difficult to
relocate.  These objectives can be achieved by changing the
boundaries of the Kakaako community development district to
exclude Piers 1 and 2 at Fort Armstrong, thereby transferring
jurisdiction over Piers 1 and 2 from the Hawaii Community
Development Authority to the Department of Transportation.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your
Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No.
2299, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.


 
a                                                     SB2299 SD1
