SECTION 16. Chapter 9, article 5, section 9 -35, Hawaii County Code 1983 (updated June 2005), is amended to read as follows: "Section 9 -35. Persons to whom permit may be issued. A permit to do electrical work regulated by this chapter may be issued only to: {(a}} (1) A contractor who is licensed under the provisions of chapter 444, Hawai'i Revised Statutes, and possesses a valid, unexpired, unrevoked license which qualifies the contractor to perform electrical or electrical specialty work. R4)4 (2) A permit may also be issued to a homeowner for electrical work on a single- family dwelling which the owner will personally occupy and use exclusively for living purposes, provided the owner is a [p@Fsan] journeyman electrician, journeyman specialty electrician, supervising electrician, or supervising specialty electrician licensed under chapter 448E, Hawaii Revised Statutes. Only one such permit may be issued to such homeowner unless the administrative authority finds the strict application would result in practical difficulty and hardship and that the granting of a second permit would not be contrary to the purpose of the Code. This does not preclude the homeowner from obtaining additional permits for the same building or accessory building on the same lot. R(s)} (3) A supervising electrician or supervising specialty electrician: R(4A (AA) Who is employed as a maintenance electrician by someone other than a contractor described above; fa+4 42A B) Who is donating services to an eleemosynary institution for temporary electrical installation; f-94 J(3A (C) Who is employed by the County or State; or R{4)4 (D ) Who is applying for electrical work for such person's own dwelling." SECTION 17. Severability. If any provision of this ordinance, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held invalid, the invalidity does not affect other provisions or applications of the ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this ordinance are severable. SECTION 18. Material to be repealed is bracketed. New material is underscored. In printing this ordinance, the brackets, bracketed material, and underscoring need not be included. 0'
