(General Commercial Districts), Division 12, Section 25-5-122(a)(48) (Village- Commercial Districts) and Article 7,Division 2, Section 25-7-22(a)(48) (Downtown Hilo Commercial District) Reason: Section 6 of Bill 121 references the sections in the code in which the word "Short-Term Vacation Rental" shall be replaced with the word"Transient Accommodation Rentals", however it does not correctly clarify the specific type of transient accommodation rental that will be permitted. Therefore, consider clarifying the sections listed above to coincide with Section 25-4-16.2 of Bill 121, which permits Operator-hosted Transient Accommodation Rentals in the districts in which Operator- hosted Transient Accommodation Rentals will be permitted. In addition to further conform Bill 121 with the zoning code, Section 25-5-3(a)(14), Section 25-5-22(a)(16), Section 25-5-42(a)(24) should state, "Transient Accommodation Rentals, Operator- hosted, situated in any of the following: (A) General plan resort and resort node areas, including areas designated as open in the general plan which adjoin the resort or resort node areas along the shoreline. (B) Areas within a project district." In addition to the preceding, Section 25-5-32(a)(20) shall go further to also state that a transient accommodation rental shall also be allowed in multiple family dwellings within a condominium property regime as defined and governed by Chapter 514A or 514B, Hawaii Revised Statutes.
