STAND. COM. REP. NO. 854

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                

 

RE:    S.B. No. 327

       S.D. 2

 

 

 

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2019

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 327, S.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PRIVATE ROADS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to require the Department of the Attorney General to condemn three roads on the island of Oahu.

 

     Your Committee received written comments on this measure from the Department of Health.

 

Your Committee finds that roads located throughout the State that have no clear ownership and do not receive any maintenance or repairs are a hazard to the environment and the public's health and safety and should be condemned.

 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to facilitate further discussion on the measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 327, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 327, S.D. 2.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
