Bill > SB3113

This bill revises a previous law (Act 307, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022) concerning the transfer of public school lands to the Department of Education. It updates specific tax map key numbers, which are unique identifiers for parcels of land, to ensure accuracy or reflect changed circumstances. Additionally, the bill modifies the process for conveying these properties, clarifying that the transfer of ownership is effective by operation of law as of July 1, 2022, and that a quitclaim deed or other conveyance instrument must be recorded in either the office of the assistant registrar of the land court or the State of Hawaii bureau of conveyances to formally document the transfer, regardless of whether the document has been recorded. The bill also confirms that the state tax on conveyances will not apply to these transfers as they involve only government entities.
