RELATING TO THE HAWAII PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHORITY.

Maddy summaryHB 1095 amends Hawaii law to allow the Hawaii Public Housing Authority (HPHA) to close any of its properties to the public, expanding existing authority to include all HPHA parcels. This change directly affects HPHA housing sites and residents, as it grants the Authority broader discretion to restrict public access to its facilities. The bill’s key provision modifies section 356D-6.7 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to explicitly include all HPHA-owned parcels under closure authority. Currently pending in committee with a recommendation to defer, the bill has not yet become law.
