Bill Summary

Amends the membership of the Hawaii Community Development Authority to include the Chairperson of the Hawaiian Homes Commission or the Chairperson's designee.

AI Summary

This bill amends the membership of the Hawaii Community Development Authority (HCDA), a state entity responsible for promoting and coordinating community development in underutilized areas, to include the Chairperson of the Hawaiian Homes Commission or their designee as a member. Specifically, the bill modifies the existing law to add the Hawaiian Homes Commission Chairperson to the list of ex officio members, such as the directors of finance, transportation, and business, economic development, and tourism. The Chairperson will be included in the membership for all four community development districts: Heeia, Kalaeloa, Kakaako, and Pulehunui. Additionally, the bill adjusts the voting procedures for these districts to incorporate the new member, ensuring that the Hawaiian Homes Commission Chairperson can participate in quorum and voting for matters affecting the Kalaeloa and Kakaako districts. The change aims to enhance representation and potentially improve coordination between the HCDA and the Hawaiian Homes Commission, which is responsible for managing lands set aside for Native Hawaiians. The bill will take effect upon approval by the appropriate authorities.
