RELATING TO BONDS.

The term 'Resilient infrastructure for shelter and equity' was replaced with 'Housing infrastructure growth' throughout the text.

The specific definition of the bond type was changed to align with the new housing-focused terminology.

The effective date was changed from a distant future date (July 1, 3000) to 'upon approval and ratification,' indicating the bill is now ready for immediate implementation if the constitutional amendment passes.

The report title and description were updated to reflect the shift from general resilience to housing infrastructure growth.

The term 'Housing infrastructure growth' has been replaced with 'Resilient infrastructure for shelter and equity' in all statutory definitions, including the bond types, district boundaries, and funding plans.

The legislative intent and report title were updated to align with the new program name, shifting the focus from general housing growth to resilient infrastructure and equity.

All references to the old program name in the Hawaii Revised Statutes (Sections 46-101 through 46-112) were systematically replaced to ensure consistency across the legal code.

Metadata fields such as the bill author, clerk number, and document revision dates were updated to reflect the new version of the bill.

The term 'Resilient infrastructure for shelter and equity' was replaced with 'Housing infrastructure growth' throughout the entire text, including new definitions for bonds, districts, and funds.

The specific eligibility criteria for creating districts were removed. The previous version required districts to be located within 'transit-oriented development zones,' which has been deleted from the requirements.

The requirement that counties must first utilize community facilities districts or transit-oriented development programs to the maximum extent before issuing these bonds was removed.

The bill title and report descriptions were updated to reflect the new 'Housing Infrastructure Growth' terminology instead of the previous 'Resilient Infrastructure' title.

The bill title and subject matter changed from 'Housing Infrastructure Growth Bonds' to 'Resilient Infrastructure for Shelter and Equity Bonds' to align with a new constitutional amendment.

New definitions were added for 'Resilient infrastructure for shelter and equity bonds' and 'Transit-oriented development zone,' which restricts where these bonds can be issued to areas near public transit.

Eligibility for the bond program is now strictly limited to counties that have first exhausted other funding options, such as community facilities districts, or can prove those options are financially infeasible.

The bill was renumbered and restructured into three distinct parts to separate the creation of the new bond program from the changes required in state debt limit laws.

Metadata fields such as bill type, revision numbers, and dates were updated to reflect the progression from a draft bill to the first committee version.
