Hawaii SB3006 amends land use district boundaries for conservation, agricultural, and urban lands over fifteen acres.

Hawaii SB3006 modifies the process for amending land use district boundaries for conservation, agricultural, and urban lands greater than fifteen acres. The bill requires public notice and hearings, mandates certification of water availability, and allows for intervention by various parties. The land use commission must approve boundary changes if they are reasonable, consistent with policies, and not harmful to aquifers. The commission can impose conditions for boundary changes, including reverting land to its former classification if conditions are not met.
