SB168 seeks to enhance the governance of Hawaii's school impact fee program by transferring oversight from the board of education to the school facilities authority board. The bill mandates that the school facilities authority board designate school impact districts only after holding a public hearing and making a written analysis available to the public. It also allows the board to dissolve a school impact district without a public hearing. The analysis must include various factors such as student generation rates, enrollment capacity, and the need for new or expanded school facilities.
