Summary

The Committee of Legislative Approvals and Acquisitions voted to postpone two rezoning bills from the Hawaii Island Community Development Corporation — both intended to enable affordable-housing projects — to the call of the chair after the applicant requested additional time to coordinate with county offices.

The Committee of Legislative Approvals and Acquisitions on Thursday postponed two rezoning bills from the Hawaii Island Community Development Corporation to the call of the chair after the applicant asked for more time to coordinate with county housing and planning staff.

Both measures — Bill 86, which would reclassify about 14.321 acres in Oʻuli, South Kohala, from agricultural (A-1A) to single-family residential (RS-10), and Bill 87, an 18.38-acre reclassification related to the final phases of the Kumakua self‑help housing project — were read into the record and then postponed. The body voted 8–0 to postpone each measure; Councilmember Ashley Kirkwitz was excused.
