S.D. 1
H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2022
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Housing, to which was referred S.B. No. 2588, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO HOUSING,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds to the Hawaii Public Housing Authority to remodel, renovate, repair, and rehabilitate two hundred sixty-four housing units.
Your
Committee finds that some of the Hawaii Public Housing Authority's properties
were built over fifty years ago. The
appropriation of funds contained in this measure will enable the Hawaii Public
Housing Authority to address the capital needs backlog of its properties, including
lead abatement, upgrading of electrical infrastructure, replacement of plumbing
piping, roof replacement, spall repair, and federally-mandated Americans with
Disabilities Act improvements.
Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
Your
Committee respectfully requests that should your Committee on Finance
deliberate on this matter further, that it considers appropriating $25,000,000
for fiscal year 2022-2023 for the Hawaii Public Housing Authority to remodel,
renovate, repair, and rehabilitate the two hundred sixty-four housing units
specified in this measure.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2588, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2588, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Housing,
