House Committee on Housing backs resolution urging Kapolei road transfers to City and County of Honolulu

The House Committee on Housing on March 21 passed HCR 11 / HR 11, a concurrent resolution urging the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation to continue working with the City and County of Honolulu to efficiently transfer roads within the Villages of Kapolei to the City and County of Honolulu.

The measure, recommended “pass as is” by the chair, received one piece of written testimony in support from the Hawaii Housing Finance and Development Corporation (HHFDC). Committee members posed no questions during the public testimony period.

Committee members voted to adopt the chair’s recommendation. The chair and vice chair voted aye; several members were recorded as excused during the vote. The recommendation was adopted and the resolution will be transmitted consistent with the committee process.

The resolution asks HHFDC to continue coordination with the City and County of Honolulu on road transfers for the Villages of Kapolei. The measure does not itself direct any transfer of property; rather it urges further work and coordination between agencies.

No formal amendments or additional conditions were recorded during the committee’s decision-making session. The committee took no separate action that would obligate funding or change law.
