HB1013

Hawaii HB1013 establishes an incentive for developing housing on important agricultural lands for farmers and employees.

Hawaii HB1013 amends state law to establish an incentive for developing housing on important agricultural lands for farmers and employees. The bill allows landowners to develop, construct, and maintain farm cluster housing for farmers, employees, and their immediate family members on designated lands. It also allows priority processing for permits for agricultural processing facilities on these lands. The bill repeals existing requirements for farm dwellings and employee housing on important agricultural lands to eliminate any stricter restrictions.
