Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2001

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred S.B. No. 752, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO STATE BOATING FACILITIES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to improve state small boat harbors and other boating facilities through streamlined services, improved facilities, and increased revenues by:

(1) Clarifying that leases issued for lands within state boating facilities may allow uses that complement or support maritime activities of state boating facilities;

(2) Authorizing the Board of Land and Natural Resources to lease fast lands within an existing state boating facility for private development, management, and operation; and

(3) Requiring that revenues derived from leases of state boating facilities be deposited into the Boating Special Fund.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources testified in support of this measure. The Hawaii Government Employees Association supported the intent of this bill.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 752, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
