Gov. David Ige on Monday signed new administrative rules for planned communities, multi-family complexes and rental housing within Department of Hawaiian Home Lands.
The new rules will take effect 10 days after the signed rules are filed at the Office of the Lieutenant Governor.
DHHL submitted its final rules to the governor in June after nearly two years of efforts that will expand residential lease offerings to include multi-family housing, along with rental and kupuna housing opportunities.
“I’m excited about this set of administrative rules because it really expands the options for beneficiaries,” Ige said in a statement. “We continue to work with beneficiary communities in every county to pave the way to homeownership for more families across the state. I believe developing Hawaiian Home Lands is an essential part of addressing the state’s affordable housing crisis.”
