Subject: Bill 44 amendments
Dear Council members,
My name is Jered Fukushima. I am in support of Councilwoman Villegas amendments to Bill 44. In particular the additional Onsite
Inspection for Factory Built housing. I have been a residential home builder for over 20 years, and have seen many modular housing
units shipped from the mainland.There has always been some issue in one form or another from shipping.
Most recently we received two shipping containers that were factory built with interior walls, doors, plumbing, and electrical.These
being shipping containers one would think they could handle the shipping process better.Yet every window corner was ripped, every
door had to be taken apart some brackets had pulled apart. Plumbing and electrical is yet to be hooked up. I believe that factory built
housing structural integrity will not hold up to the rigors of shipping to our island.
That is why on-site inspection is critical to our communities safety.
Aloha,Jered Fukushima
