Hawaii SB1157 amends land use district boundary amendment procedures.

Hawaii SB1157 modifies the process for amending land use district boundaries, particularly for areas greater than fifteen acres. It allows county land use decision-making authorities to handle boundary amendments without requiring the Land Use Commission's consideration, provided they align with county plans. The bill mandates public notice and hearings, allowing various parties to intervene. The Land Use Commission must act on petitions within a specified timeframe and may impose conditions on approved boundary changes.
