Submitting for consideration and confirmation to the Small Business Regulatory Review Board, Gubernatorial Nominee, LEELEN PARK, for a term to expire 06-30-2029.
Governor Josh Green has submitted the nomination of Leelen Park for appointment to the Small Business Regulatory Review Board, with a term set to expire on June 30, 2029. This procedural bill requires the Hawaii State Senate to consider and confirm the nomination as mandated by Article V, Section 6 of the Hawaii State Constitution. The nomination directly affects the Small Business Regulatory Review Board's membership and the governor's authority to fill vacancies. No substantive policy changes are involved - this is solely a confirmation process for a gubernatorial appointment.
