WE NEED YOUR TESTIMONY FOR BILL 41 CD1 (Please Share)
Please support Bill 41 CD1 by testifying at the Zoning Committee on Thursday 1/20/22 at 9 AM via Zoom and submitting written testimony to the council.
BILL 41 CD1:
Will increase the number of long-term (90 days and longer) rentals in our community!
Will stop Tourism Sprawl from over-taking our residential and rural communities and give our neighborhoods back to the residents!*
Will eliminate loopholes like “fake 30-day” contracts that have allowed illegal vacation rentals to proliferate in our neighborhoods!
Will allow vacation rentals to expand in resort-zoned communities where they belong!
Recommended amendments to Bill 41 CD1: We recommend Bill 41 define a short-term rental as 180 days or less as the Mayor and the DPP Director recommend. This is the same definition that the State of Hawaii, Maui County, Kauai County, and the Kaka’ako Special District uses to define short-term rentals.
