COM. REP. NO. 304-24
Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: H.B. No. 2292
H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Housing, to which was referred H.B. No. 2292 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee finds that the State's dire housing needs are well-established and there are scores of projects in planning, design, and development to address those needs. Your Committee further finds that many large-scale projects will require an expert with the necessary skills and knowledge, as many projects will include complex development, construction, finance, and management strategies. This measure will further the State's mission to increase the development of affordable housing by hiring an individual capable of supporting the Corporation's extensive development plans.
Accordingly, your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Specifying that the appropriation is for the establishment and hiring of one full-time equivalent (1.0 FTE) project management III position; and
(2) Changing the effective date to July 1, 3000, to encourage further discussion.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2292, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2292, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Housing,
