Bill > SB1337

This bill modifies the Stadium Authority, which is an administrative body within Hawaii's Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism responsible for managing the stadium development district. The bill clarifies the composition and appointment process for the eleven-member authority, which includes eight public members and three ex officio members. Specifically, it designates specific geographic areas for two community representatives (one from Aiea and one from West Honolulu) and requires that public members be U.S. citizens who have resided in Hawaii for at least five years immediately before appointment. The bill also establishes new quorum and voting requirements, stipulating that a majority of current voting members must be present to conduct business and that the concurrence of a majority of voting members is necessary to validate any action. Additionally, the bill maintains existing provisions that limit members to no more than two consecutive terms and ensures members serve without compensation while receiving reimbursement for actual and necessary expenses. The changes aim to provide more precise guidelines for the Stadium Authority's operations and membership.
