ARAKAKI, CHAIRPERSON, HAWAII COUNT' N COUNCIL, AND COUNCILMEMBERS VIA; DIANE QUITIQUIT, DIRECTOR FROM: RAYMOND CARR, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SPECIALIST~?Pi,- SUBJECT: BILL 25 - AMENDMENTS TO HAWAII MODEL ENERGY CODE Attached please find a revised draft of Bill 25. The original bill, discussed at the January 21, 1997 meeting of the Committee on Public Works and Parks, has been changed in two places as follows: • In Section 10, on page 12, the date of November 23, 1994 has been changed to March 31, 1997. This change has been made to address the concern expressed about the retroactivity of the requirement for the building envelope of shell or speculative buildings and warehouses to be upgraded to Code requirements when converted to facilities for human occupancy. • In Section 16, on page 14, the wording is changed so as to have the ordinance take effect on April 1, 1997 rather than the date of Council approval. Building Division have agreed to these two changes. The new dates have been selected in the interests of facilitating code adherence by the public and implementation by the Building Division.
