Concurrent processing
HRS §46-15.7
in effect46-15.7. Concurrent processing
When amendments to a county community or development plan, a county zoning map, or any combination of the two, are necessary to permit the development of a housing project, requests for amendments to these plans and zoning maps shall be allowed, if accepted for processing by the county, to be processed concurrently at the request of the applicant. In addition, upon the request of the applicant, these plan and zoning map amendment requests may be processed concurrently with any request to the state land use commission for the redesignation of lands which would permit the development of the housing project.
For the purposes of this section:
"County community or development
plan" means a relatively detailed plan for an area or region within a
county to implement the objectives and policies of a county general plan.
"Housing project" means a plan,
design, or undertaking for the development of single- or multi-family housing,
including any affordable housing component which may be required by the county
council. A housing project may also include ancillary uses such as commercial
and industrial uses which are an integral part of the development.
