Hawaii HB284 aims to expedite building permit approvals for housing projects by setting a sixty-day limit.
Hawaii HB284 addresses the lengthy delays in building permit approvals for single-family and multi-family housing projects, which contribute to high home prices. The bill mandates that counties issue building permits within sixty days if the application is stamped and certified by a licensed engineer and architect. If the county fails to act within this period, the permit is automatically approved. This measure aims to reduce uncertainty and expedite project approvals, addressing the issue of Hawaii's lengthy permit processing times.
