RE:   H.R. No. 106

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Housing, to which was referred H.R. No. 106 entitled:

 

"HOUSE RESOLUTION REQUESTING THAT DEVELOPERS AND COUNTY PLANNING DEPARTMENTS ENCOURAGE SMALLER AND CHEAPER HOUSING,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to address projected shortfalls in affordable housing by:

 

     (1)  Urging developers to build more small-scale housing units; and

 

     (2)  Urging the planning departments of the respective counties to make the permitting process more amenable to the construction of small and affordable home and condominium units.

 

     No testimony was received on this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.R. No. 106 and recommends its adoption.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Housing,
