BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Section 46-16.8, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsections (g) and (h) to read as follows:
"(g) Each county having a population equal to or less than five hundred thousand that adopts a county surcharge on state tax ordinance pursuant to this section shall use the surcharges received from the State for:
(1) Operating or capital costs of public transportation within each county for public transportation systems, including:
(A) Public roadways or highways;
(B) Public buses;
(C) Trains;
(D) Ferries;
(E) Pedestrian paths or sidewalks; or
(F) Bicycle paths;
(2) Expenses in complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 with respect to paragraph (1); and
(3) Housing infrastructure[;] costs;
provided that a county that uses surcharge revenues for housing infrastructure
shall not pass on those housing infrastructure costs to the developer of a
housing project; provided further that this paragraph shall apply only if a
county amended its surcharge ordinance pursuant to subsection (d) or adopts a
county surcharge on state tax ordinance after December 31, 2022;
provided
that each county having a population equal to or less than five hundred
thousand that adopts a county surcharge on state tax ordinance pursuant to this
section after December 31, 2022, shall use the surcharge revenues received from
the State only for the purposes described in paragraph (3)[.] for
county-supported housing projects.

infrastructure["] costs" includes pedestrian paths or
sidewalks on a county road near or around a public school, and water, drainage,
sewer, water reuse, waste disposal, and waste treatment systems that connect to
the infrastructure of the county[.] and shall include financing costs,
including any related debt service and financing agreement costs."
SECTION 2. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.
