Bill > SB288

This bill removes the sunset provision (expiration date) in Act 45, passed in the 2024 legislative session, which previously was set to expire on June 30, 2028. The act relates to counties' authorization to develop, construct, finance, refinance, or otherwise provide mixed-use developments. By removing the sunset clause, the bill ensures that the counties' current legal authority to engage in such mixed-use development projects will continue indefinitely, without a predetermined end date. Specifically, the bill strikes the language that would have automatically repealed the law on June 30, 2028, and would have reverted Hawaii Revised Statutes section 46-15.1 to its previous form. The bill will take effect immediately upon its approval, and will apply to bond proceeds expended by counties after December 31, 2023.
