Makes permanent the representatives of the Building Industry Association of Hawaii and the General Contractors Association of Hawaii on the state.

The bill amends the composition of the state building code council to include permanent, standing members from the Building Industry Association of Hawaii and the General Contractors Association of Hawaii. This change aims to alleviate the burdens caused by frequent updates to the state building code, which currently require significant time and resources from county building departments and the construction industry. The council, established to create and implement the state building code, has faced challenges with limited funding and insufficient staffing.
