From: Zahz HewLen <br /> To: LPCtestimony <br /> Subject: testimony to oppose 121, 122,and 123 <br /> Date: Thursday,April 18, 2024 10:22:25 AM <br /> Aloha <br /> My name is Zahz Manawapou HewLen and I am a candidate for HCC District 7. I encourage <br /> the commission and council to scrap bills 121-123 and direct their attention to enforcing <br /> current legislation already in place related to transient accommodations,which is yet to be <br /> done effectively. If the intention behind these bills is to generate more long term rentals, I'd <br /> suggest directing your efforts toward encouraging and providing incentive for property owners <br /> to join in the service of renting longterm at affordable rates because currently there is none. <br /> Property maintenance,taxes, and insurance are high with get on top of that. There are people <br /> out there taking advantage of tenant code and shoving it in the faces of our landlords who <br /> deperately need government support. There is a huge lack of accountability from the <br /> government in these bills for the housing crisis we have today. <br /> I oppose any further legislation because it is misguided focus and NOT the way to generate <br /> more long term rentals. <br /> Mahalo <br />
