Summary

SCR 90, asking county planning departments to create kupuna-friendly permit requirements for parking accessibility and business operating hours, was advanced with an HD1 for technical amendments; one member recorded a reservation about defining 'kupuna' age.

The committee advanced SCR 90 with an HD1 for technical amendments to improve clarity and consistency. The resolution requests county planning departments to establish kupuna-friendly building permit considerations for parking accessibility and private business operating hours.

Members discussed whether the HD1 would insert a minimum age definition for "kupuna." Representative Hartsfield recorded a reservation, saying he would prefer the resolution specify a minimum age to avoid confusion; the committee noted that inserting an age would likely be a policy decision rather than a technical amendment.

No individual testimony was presented in person for this item and the chair moved the measure forward with amendments for style and clarity.
