This letter is in support of Bill 44, and in opposition of proposed amendments. Additional
amendments to Bill 44 would limit choices and add stifling costs. Current data indicates Georgine Busch
that 30% of all homeless individuals on the Big Island are children. Research continues to
show multiple and long term negative impacts on children who experience homelessness.
Factory Built Homes are an important solution to housing insecurity in our community. Greg Chun, PhD
We need housing options for our diverse community, to offset the hardships families are
facing. The passage of Bill 44 will provide for a measure of stability. Again, this letter is
in support of Bill 44 and in opposition of proposed amendments that adversely impact Marta Derieg, MD
Factory Built Housing. Mahalo for your consideration and time.
