Sir:

Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 2702, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE KALAELOA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT,"

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

The purpose of this measure is to transfer responsibility for the Kalaeloa Community Development District to the Kalaeloa Community Development Authority.

Your Conference Committee used the H.D. 2 version of this measure as a base for the C.D. 1 version.

In addition, your Conference Committee amended this measure to:

(1) Ensure that all development is done in accordance with state law and the State Constitution;

(2) Base assessments on each landowner's proportionate share of the total acreage of the District;

(3) Provide that the membership of the Authority shall be increased, if necessary, by the addition of three members, except as provided in proposed new section 206E-A;

(4) Provide that the presence of all 16 members of the Authority is not necessary to conduct business;

(5) Delete all of the appropriation provisions, except for the Kalaeloa Community Development District Revolving Fund, for which your Conference Committee agreed to increase the appropriation ceiling to $500,000; and

(6) Make another technical change for clarity and style.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2702, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2702, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, C.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
