Hawaiʻi · State boards

State boards

Some decisions about land and water are made by the state, not the county: district boundaries by the Land Use Commission, state land and leases by the Board of Land and Natural Resources, stream channels and water use permits by the Commission on Water Resource Management, Kakaʻako by the Hawaiʻi Community Development Authority. Their meetings are listed here once; an item that prints a tax map key also appears on the page for the area where that parcel sits, on any island.
