RE: H.B. No. 2380

H.D. 1

Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Ninth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2018

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Water & Land, to which was referred H.B. No. 2380 entitled:

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

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to clarify that the Board of Land and Natural Resources may lease all fast lands and submerged lands within any existing state boating facility by public auction, request for proposals, or direct negotiation by deleting a non-applicable requirement and repealing obsolete requirements specific to Ala Wai Boat Harbor.

The Department of Land and Natural Resources and Pulama Lanai supported this measure.

Your Committee has amended this measure by:

(1) Requiring the Board of Land and Natural Resources to receive prior authorization from the Legislature by concurrent resolution before leasing fast lands and submerged lands within an existing state boating facility; and

(2) Changing its effective date to July 1, 2050, to encourage further discussion.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Water & Land that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2380, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2380, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Water & Land,
