COM. REP. NO. 1168-22
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2022
RE: S.B. No. 2757
S.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 Water & Land, to which was referred S.B. No. 2757, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO HISTORIC PRESERVATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Land and Natural Resources and Historic Hawai‘i Foundation. Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Department of Budget and Finance.
Your Committee finds that comprehensive statewide inventories of historic properties and burial sites are critical to managing and protecting these places in Hawaii. Your Committee further finds that the absence of comprehensive statewide inventories can delay project planning because developers, planners, and state and county agencies lack key information on the location of historic properties and burial sites.
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 S.B. No. 2757, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Water & Land,
|
