H.D. 2
S.D. 2
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2006
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 2555, H.D. 2, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE HAWAII COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to prohibit the Hawaii Community Development Authority from selling the fee interest in any public lands in the Kakaako community development district.
Your Committee finds that public sentiment is opposed to the sale of the fee interest in any public lands in the Kakaako community development district. Furthermore, that opposition extends to the development of any residential development in the district makai of Ala Moana Boulevard.
Accordingly, your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Adding a new section to part II of chapter 206E, prohibiting the Authority from:
(A) Selling or otherwise assigning the fee simple interest in any public lands within the Kakaako community development district; or
(B) Approving any plan or proposal for any residential development in that portion of the Kakaako community development district makai of Ala Moana Boulevard; and
(2) Changing the effective date of this measure to July 1, 2050, to allow for further discussion.
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 H.B. No. 2555, H.D. 2, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2555, H.D. 2, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
