Honorable Robert Bunda

Sir:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the House of Representatives to the amendments proposed by the Senate in H.B. No. 931, H.D. 2, S.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING,"
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 bill is to encourage the development of workforce housing and affordable housing on leased residential lots by exempting such developments from the provisions of chapter 516, Hawaii Revised Statutes, which allows for mandatory lease-to-fee conversion of single-family residential properties.
Your Committee on Conference has amended this bill by:
(1) Adding a provision which excludes the University of Hawaii at Manoa from the applications being introduced by this Act while still providing for other University of Hawaii properties outside of the Manoa vicinity;
(2) Changing the effective date to July 1, 2005; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, 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 H.B. No. 931, H.D. 2, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 931, H.D. 2, S.D. 2, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
