Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred S.B. No. 2337, S.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TRANSPORTATION,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to provide limited economic relief to airport concessionaires by providing the Department of Transportation with the authority and discretion to reach an agreement with an airport concession to extend the term of the concession and to modify and amend terms of any concession lease or contract in exchange for revenue-enhancing improvements that are made or paid for by the concession.

 

     Tiare Enterprises, Inc.; Greeters of Hawaii, Ltd.; HMSHost; Airport Concessionaires Committee; and Island Shoppers, Inc. testified in support of this measure.  The Office of Hawaiian Affairs testified in opposition to this measure.  The Department of Transportation; Airlines Committee of Hawaii; and EAN Holdings, LLC, operating Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Alamo Rent-A-Car, and National Car Rental in Hawaii provided comments.  

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2337, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

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