State Planning Act Update Task Force

This task force reviews and recommends updates to Hawaii's State Planning Act, the framework law governing comprehensive land use and development planning statewide. It examines the act's goals and functional plans across areas including agriculture, energy, conservation, and economic development to ensure they remain current and effective. The task force's findings are submitted to the legislature to guide potential statutory reform.

Updates to the State Planning Act can fundamentally reshape how Hawaii manages its land, housing, and natural resources for generations to come. Residents and community organizations can participate in task force hearings and submit written comments to influence the direction of Hawaii's long-term planning framework.
