Bill 126: AMENDS CHAPTER 5, ARTICLE 5, SECTION 5-84, OF THE HAWAII COUNTY CODE 1983 (2016 EDITION, AS AMENDED), RELATING TO THE ENERGY CONSERVATION Updates the County's Energy Conservation Code provisions by replacing the 2006 International Energy Conservation Code with the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code, and incorporating 46 amendments to promote the design of energy-efficient building envelopes and the installation of energy-efficient mechanical, lighting, and power systems in the County of Hawaii, while taking into consideration local conditions and providing options to mitigate increases in the cost of construction. Reference: Comm. 646 Intr. by: Ms. Lee Loy (B/R) ; and Comm 646.1: From Public Works Director David Yamamoto, dated November 27, 2019, transmitting an annotated version of Bill 126. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Mahalo, Mr. Clerk. May I have a motion to forward Bill 126 favorably to Council? Motion to Approve: Ms. Lee Loy moved to recommend passage of Bill 126. Seconded by Mr. Richards. Page 2 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you very much, sir. Ms. Lee Loy, this was your bill. Would you like to begin the discussion? MS. LEE LOY: Yes, thank you. Thank you, Chair. I'm going to take a few minutes to kind of unpack Bill 126. It is very comprehensive and technical, but it really is very important to housing and housing opportunities for Hawaii County. What I really want to do is pick up where we left off. A few months back, back in September, I had introduced a video, kind of sharing the IECC (International Energy Conservation Code) in a very humorous way. At the end of that presentation, there was a checklist or a pathway of what myself along with members of the Department of Public Works was going to be taking on. So if you take a look in your packet, Communication 646.2, the very last page is that particular slide -deck, and basically identifying where we are in this process. So basically what we've done is we reached out to Corporation Counsel to find out how much we could amend this particular code, and got feedback that we could actually tackle it and begin to adopt some of what the other counties were doing, both Maui County, Kaua` i County, and then Honolulu City and County, which are going through right now. We did provide somewhat of a courtesy copy to the State Energy Office. And within your packet you have a letter from Howard Wiig, who is the leader in this International Energy Conservation Code, providing a letter in strong support of our revised amendments. In addition to that, at that particular meeting we heard a lot of public outcry about the restrictiveness of this code because basically it had moved in kind of without any amendments. So in an attempt to address that public outcry, and I think it was Val who mentioned at that particular meeting, that this code was restrictive actually putting affordable housing out of reach for our local families, and a cry for—we needed options. So taking that charge and listening to the Council Members at that time, we began to put our heads together. With the Department of Public Works, we did a topic focused conversation on both the Kona side and the west side, and then got the better part of almost 200 suggested edits and comments. At the top half of Communication 646, is a matrix of all of the comments that we received as of the deadline and how they were handled, and if they were incorporated into this particular draft of Bill 126. For right now, I do want to take a pause and really thank Leslie Chow in our Legislative Research Branch, who took a lot of those comments, synthesized them, and then of course Robyn (Matsumoto) over at Building; Neal Tanaka, Neil Erickson, and Kelly Wilson. I can't leave out Denise Laitinen, who is the Page 3 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 Public Information Officer, who really took charge of the topic -focused conversations, to really garner and get stakeholder feedback. You know, it was a team effort. It really was. And I sat back and I listened to some of the public testimony, and for the most part they're absolutely right. We have the most restrictive code in place right now of all the counties in the State. What Bill 126 does, really is comb out what Maui County did, Kauai did, along with addressing the unique needs of the Big Island. One thing this particular code does is really walk back an elevation that was arbitrarily put in, in Bill 126, and we've expanded that from the 2,500 -foot elevation to the 5,000 -foot elevation. And that's just one of many good things in this code. But with that, what I'd like to do is call up Robyn and Neal to further—kind of present some of the highlights of this bill, which also provides a provision for affordable housing, and providing some exceptions that would begin to accelerate the ability for affordable housing. Again, I cannot thank the department enough. I think one testifier mentioned, I think it was Shawn (Roth), mentioned that this was the first of its kind, where the department actually reached out to the stakeholders and listened and worked collaboratively with them. It was definitely inventive, and I cannot thank the department enough. So with that, Robyn and Neal, if you guys don't mind? (Note: At this time, Acting Building Chief Robyn Matsumoto and Acting Deputy Building Chief Neal Tanaka came forward to address the members of the Committee.) MS. MATSUMOTO: Good afternoon. My name is Robyn Matsumoto, Acting Building Chief. Sue had touched on the affordable housing. We included an affordable housing exception, where if you built a house 1,100 square feet or smaller, you would not have to comply with the Energy Code amendment. Also in addition, we included an off -grid PV (photovoltaic) with battery backup. You also wouldn't have to comply with this requirement because you wouldn't be putting a demand on the HELCO (Hawai `i Electric Light Company) grid. She also touched based on the tropical zone for residential. We also included an aspect for our commercial, where if you had a 2,500 square foot commercial endeavor that had like four tons of energy use, then you could also get an exemption under the tropical requirement. Also for our provisions of compliance, like if you wanted to condition a room after the fact, we made a path where you could—if you were also included in a tropical zone, you could do like a split -system ductless air conditioner, where you would put insulation in the roof as long as you've got an efficient Page 4 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 a/c (air conditioning) unit. So those are some of the big talking points of the amendments that we did. MR. TANAKA: Yeah, I think I just wanted to clarify. I'm sorry, Neal Tanaka, Acting Deputy Building Chief, Department of Public Works. I just wanted to clarify that this was a genesis of the bill from State action, right? State Building Code Council required us to adopt this. And as everybody had mentioned, we are enforcing a code that is most stringent out of all the counties, as written. And so due to the community input, we definitely took in as much as we could, move in, that stayed in line with the strict, or stringent, or aggressive energy conservation goals of the State. While keeping that intent with the code, I felt that—we felt as a department that our proposals for the amendment were suitable and appropriate for our County. I think some of the other comments that were requested were that they needed clarification and definitions, and I think that we moved in a lot to help clarify the applicability of the code to those that are building. So we're here for you to answer any kind of questions that you may have written or otherwise, and feel free to ask. MS. LEE LOY: Yeah, thank you. Thank you, Robyn and Neal. I think—you know, building off of that, what we really did is, widen the pathway to compliance? What these amendments do is really create more options. More options, more opportunities to not only comply with the IECC but hold the line at providing options for housing and housing opportunities here on what I know to be the most unique island. And I think a testifier mentioned that, you know, all the different temperatures—windward and leeward sides of the island. So with that, I am too open to a lot of—you know, any of your questions, and stand ready to answer any of them. Chair, I yield. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Ms. Lee Loy. Does anyone else have anything to say in discussion? MS. EOFF: Mr. Chair, I guess—I'm almost due. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay. MR. HENRICKS: I think Ms. David—I can give you a list of people. If they would, raise their hand: Ms. David, Ms. Eoff, Ms. Villegas, and Mr. Richards, not necessarily in that order. Your choice. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: I would just go down the list. Okay, Ms. David, go ahead. Page 5 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 MS. DAVID: Thank you, Chair. First of all, I just want to thank Robyn and Neal for the efforts they've made in coming—in reaching out to us; because when this came forward, it seemed so complex, just didn't know where to start. Today, listening to the professionals from—architects and their explanation or their comments, that they're pleased with the changes that you folks have attempted and made. I'm not going to lie, I have no clue as to understanding everything that you folks did. But when you sat and explained that you basically took the community's concerns and then incorporated them into this version, and so based on that that, I know you folks did a lot of work, and everyone did to get to this point. Could you just explain again the tropical provision? How does that—because I think that was one—in our discussion that was one of the concerns, right, on that? MR. TANAKA: Sure. So, Council Member Lee Loy briefly touched on that. The tropical zone is a provision in the model code that allows for another path of compliance. The model code is essentially a cookbook for compliance, prescriptively. This tropical zone is that alternative path, where also prescriptive, it's less stringent. Where, if you're not 50 percent conditioned, more than 50 percent conditioned, then the requirements for insulation, your fenestrations or windows are relaxed. The model code had written it at 2,400 -foot elevation. As Ms. Lee Loy mentioned, it was arbitrary. Where we did, is we expanded it to 5,000 -foot elevation, which included all of the—effectively, all of the residential areas on this island. So this possible path of compliance for those are unconditioned or less than 50 percent conditioned is more palatable. It's more inclusive as opposed to exclusive. MS. DAVID: Okay. MR. TANAKA: So there are other provisions in the tropical zone, with regards to the size of your windows or the location of your windows, ceiling fans being required, or a rough -in for those ceiling fans. Should you have any specific questions on those, I'd be happy to answer that as well. MS. DAVID: No specifics, but I just—that pretty much was an issue that stood out to me. The expansion of the elevation I think benefits the people of this island because it's not restrictive, and like you said it's more inclusive. So, thank you for that. For now, I'll yield because I just wanted you to cover that again. I just want to thank you folks and the department in all of your work that you've done. Chair, I yield. Thank you. MR. TANAKA: Thank you, Ms. David. Page 6 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 MS. DAVID: Thank you. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Council Member David. Council Member Eoff. MS. EOFF: Thank you, Mr. Chair. And thank you folks for walking us through this and for the collaborative approach. I attended one of the outreach workshops, and the interaction and dialogue seemed very productive. So I see that reflected in all of the changes that are now before us. Thank you for coming individually to us too and getting us a little more clear on something that's a little bit complex for those of us who aren't an engineer or a Public Works employee. But I did have a couple of questions. One, in Ms. Lee Loy's communication, with some of the actions taken. After some of the concerns, they're all in that table, I noticed that the word "habitable" was added to several sections, to make it more clear that those are the only spaces being measured for the requirements. So with the affordable housing exemption, and I think one of the testifiers raised that earlier, is the habitable space noted for the 1,100 feet? What does the 1,100 feet include? MR. TANAKA: Yes, so if you refer to—umm, I apologize—paragraph, I'm sorry. Paragraph 31, on page 26 of the annotated bill, "Unconditioned dwellings with enclosed habitable areas less than 1,100 square feet." So it is addressed as habitable, yes. MS. EOFF: Yeah, I know you told me that before, but I just wanted it on the record clearly because that question came up earlier, I think, in the testimony. MR. TANAKA: Yeah. MS. EOFF: The other thing was, thank you for the off -grid exemption that we will be able to have those folks still be legal. MR. TANAKA: Yeah, we felt that because they're producing their own power and storing it, they are really managing their own power. The impact and load to HELCO is non-existent, and so whatever they do would not impact our reliance on that energy. MS. EOFF: Thank you. That's all of the questions I have right now. And I support the methodology and I think that product here. Thank you. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Ms. Eoff. Mr. Richards. Page 7 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 MR. RICHARDS: Thank you, Chair. Neal and Robyn, thank you so much for coming and talking story about this. Sue, thanks for bringing this forward to make some corrections on, otherwise we would be in very onerous code to try and follow. I really appreciate the model of going through. Trying to help people become compliant rather than punishing them for being noncompliant, so that's a big shift in attitude and I like that. Is there any, and I'm sure it's been calculated, as far as the savings for a household if they go through being fully compliant? And where I'm going with that, is that the whole reason for this is to be more energy-efficient. And recognizing this code is being adjusted to take care of the tropical aspect of it, and we don't really condition most of our buildings. But is there a calculation for that, as far as an efficiency thing? Because what I'm looking for, is when we talk about our grid and the demand on our grid going forward, what are we going to be saving going forward? You may not have the numbers in front of you now, but I'd sure like to talk about those at some point. MR. TANAKA: Sure. Yeah, I don't have the numbers in front of me. However, when the State was going through the adoption process at the State Building Code Council level, there was an analysis and support to justify those costs. It was outlined in that report, and I could share that with you at a separate time. MR. RICHARDS: Yeah. I'd appreciate that, Neal, so thank you. I fully appreciate the fact that we took elevation from 2,400 to 5,000 feet. Because as soon as they're on 2,400, I think that was made because nobody lives above that in anywhere else in the State except the Big Island. MR. TANAKA: Right. MR. RICHARDS: So I think that was reasoning. I look forward to getting that information. Chair, I yield. MR. TANAKA: Sure. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, sir. Ms. Villegas. MS. VILLEGAS: Aloha. Thanks guys for being here again. I especially want to thank you for taking the time and energy to come down and sit down with me and walk through the different exceptions that have been made; to take into consideration our unique ecosystems, the unique weather patterns that we have here on the Big Island, and to really take a look at what nobody wants to happen, which is having a process, and laws, and requirements that deter developers or people in general from being able to build affordable housing, as that is one of our greatest needs right now. Page 8 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 I really appreciated that you walked me through each of the different options, and I believe you defined them as three different options. And I like the cookbook analogy. But it was really helpful to you provided information that was helpful, as I had just met with a real estate—people who represent the real estate organizations who had concerns about that effect on affordable housing, and for me to get to learn that the average affordable home is 1,100 square feet. So with that size and that below being exempted, provides kind of a common sense equation to allow for the replicability of that prior kind of norm for affordable housing, as well as transitions in the elevation. I appreciate it. I encourage anyone that wants to learn more about this and still has really serious concerns, if you are currently living in a house that was built before of these codes, unless you're making changes that would that include conditioning, whether or not that's heating or cooling, correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't have to make the changes listed in these new requirements. So those that live in your home and want to keep it as is. Myself, we have louvers, we have fans. And also learning from you guys that most of the windows that you would buy are double -paned already, that's kind of become the norm as opposed to a single pane. So, just kind of a common sense walking through of these processes. I'm sure I may be missing something and there may continue to be concerns by constituents, or developers, or architects. But I really felt that you covered so many details and provided background information that allowed for a variety of options in that cookbook, which allowed for people to not then be burdened with exceptional financial costs. So thank you for doing that. That really allows for continued wise growth and development here in our community on the Big Island. So thank you for the hard -work, determination, and leadership, as well as practicality that went into not only making these changes but making it understandable for someone who's not an engineer or an architect, so thank you for that. I really appreciate it. I yield. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Council Member Villegas. Council Member Poindexter. MS. POINDEXTER: I don't have any questions. Thank you. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay. Did I miss anybody? MR. HENRICKS : Mr. Chung would like to speak. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Mr. Chung, sorry. MR. CHUNG: No, thank you, Mr. Chairman. You know, I remember it like it was yesterday, really. It was the first week of May, I was in Maui. I was coming Page 9 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 out of—I think it's called the Maui Palms Hotel. Maui Beach, Maui Palms, one of those. The one with the port cochere. I was there for the State track tournament. You know, State high school track tournament. Ms. Lee Loy called me on the phone, "We have a problem," and she explained to me what happened. You know, it was Hawaii County had not acted upon the energy code, right? It was a problem. It became apparent to me that this is something that we had to address. Since that time, that's May. June, July, August, September, October, November, December, seven months Ms. Lee Loy has been working on it, and she already credited Ms. Poindexter for bringing that up, as well. You know, I just wanted to credit all those who were instrumental in getting this done: Ms. Poindexter, Ms. Lee Loy, and all of you. You guys did it right way. You guys engaged all of the stakeholders. Got knowledgeable people in the field. Got the administration on board. They went to each and every one of the members here and explained this thing in very understandable terms. You know, when I met with you guys I said, "Look, I really don't understand this thing well," right? But they made it understandable. So I mean you know, in terms of process or processes, this is how it's supposed to work. And I think one of our speakers—at least one or several of the speakers mentioned that the transparency aspects of it. That's how government supposed to work, you know. So I wanted to thank everybody who was involved in it. Congratulations, it certainly has my support. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Chair Chung. Any further comments? MR. HENRICKS: Ms. Lee Loy would like to speak again. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay. Go ahead, Ms. Lee Loy. MS. LEE LOY: Chair, I want to give you an opportunity. Did you want to share anything? ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Oh, yeah. Yes I did, actually. So I attended a few of these meetings from the beginning. I remember being thrown up in front of a bunch of contractors at one point to have me opening discussions. I feel like we really—we fumbled through those meetings, trying to wrap around what we're saying, what we were trying to get across to the public. Follow-up meetings with the public, right, when it was very angry. Some were happy, some were content, some with great ideas, some had—some were confused, and even myself at times was confused. So to get to the point where we are now or we have this bill that's—so I think very well put together. I really do recognize Neal Tanaka and Robyn Matsumoto Page 10 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 for making this what it is; and also, for our wonderful Leslie in LRB (Legislative Research Branch), who is a legislation genius. I was out there because I've been doing solar for ten years. I visit these homes; I crawl on their attics. I can feel from first-hand experience, I can tell the difference between a house that has insulated roof, insulated walls, and houses that don't. I've been in the homes in Kona that run a/c 24 hours a day, and their pools, and I visited the houses in Hilo that have no insulation, I can just tell you from first-hand experience that when a bill comes before you and the intention is to conserve energy through specific standards and building, that what we're doing is providing better housing that's better built, that equals less cost on the back -end of the other building, more so than—it's cheaper on the front-end, so build it cheap. It's put a little bit more money into your building, and in the end you have a cooler more efficient house. I agree with it from the beginning. I didn't have a lot of issues with this for that reason. You know, I've done solar for a living for 10 years. Again, I really appreciate everyone who put all the effort into this bill. And from the public outreach to the County personnel, to just everyone who is involved, I really do appreciate everyone's time. It's great to see people put energy into something, and finally see it come about. As Aaron pointed out, seven months in, I mean, this is—this has been a process. So thank you to all who are involved, and I will be supporting this on its way through Council. I don't have any further comments. Anyone else have further comments? MS. LEE LOY: I did, Chair. ACTING CHR. KANEALI `I-KLEINFELDER: Okay, Ms. Lee Loy. MS. LEE LOY: I'm just trying this bill home. We also did hear from a testifier wanting more collaboration. And I do appreciate all of the Council Members support. But I do want to give an opportunity for people to take testimony, and for the department to go back to some of those who testified today to address some of their clarification questions. I know Joy (Kimura) was here. I know we did address what she had asked for. I believe Darryl Oliveira was generally open and supportive of this. But they submitted I believe 100 comments and suggestions that we actually have to kind of touch bases with them one more time. So I'm just going to lean on the rest of my colleagues; if you guys want to hold it for one more meeting in Committee, where we go back to Hilo, which would be January 7. Is that correct, Clerk? Or, keep moving it forward. And as a final thought, and I have to take this opportunity or else our legislative genius Leslie Chow may want to kill me, just a little—the IECC is just one of five more code amendments that will be coming forward. And so if this demonstrates the model of having our stakeholders engaged; engaged early, engaged often, provide comments and suggestions in which the technical experts at DPW along Page 11 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 with members of the Council can work towards, it will smooth that process out in the future. I also know Fire will be coming forward with their code amendments. So this is going to be a process that this body is going to see definitely over the course of the next 24 months. And I just really want to get this body comfortable at how we work with the constituents, the stakeholders, and provide good policy that really addresses them. And I did want to touch on one other thing that a testifier mentioned. We can put words on paper, but when come time for the budget, this staff is going to need training; to stand this stuff up also means resources back to the department for it to be successful. And so I just want to put that out there as we move into our budget cycle. So with that, Chair, I yield. I put my thoughts out there, and I'm willing to do what the rest of my colleagues want to do. Thank you. MR. TANAKA: Ms. Lee Loy, I'd like to say, if that's okay? I sit on the State Building Code Council, and I invite all of the design professionals, contractors, to help me at that level to advocate for our County. With all of our voices combined together, I think that we can get there to move in language on these amendments at that level, so it's easier for us at the County to support and we're not coming off as to onerous. Specific to this bill and any future bill, we are open to that collaboration. And I appreciate everybody's comments and concerns as we move these forward to Council for adoption. So, thank you. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Thank you, Mr. Tanaka. MR. HENRICKS: Mr. Chair? ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Yes? MR. HENRICKS : Mr. Richards requests to speak. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay, Mr. Richards, go ahead. MR. RICHARDS: Thanks, Chair. I just wanted to respond to Council Woman Lee Loy's comment about holding it one more time in Committee. I think the intent is good; but as was pointed out, there is some building permits coming forth, and if we delayed it too much, we're going to actually impact trying to build now. And so though I think that is a true, honest, trying to make sure it's going to work, we still have to amend it for first reading. My suggestion is that we move this forward to Council, and if we find a big puka, we plug it or—I guess since we're talking energy code that's appropriate. But we keep moving it forward; because as Sue has said, we have other things coming forward and we want the queue coming along. We should just keep process going unless Page 12 PWMTC-17 December 17, 2019 something really needs for us to slow it down. So my suggestion is we vote on it and send it to Council. I yield. MR. HENRICKS : Mr. Chair? ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Does anyone want to put forward a motion to postpone this bill, or should we move it on to Council? MR. HENRICKS : We do not have any more requests to speak on this side. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay. Well, hearing no motion, I would like to have a vote on forwarding this bill to Council with a favorable recommendation. All in favor? I cannot hear you, so I'm going to assume. Are there any noes? How about a raise -of -hand for noes so I can see you? Vote on Bill 126: The motion to recommend passage of Bill 126 on first reading (Approvedwas carried by the following voice vote: Ayes: Committee Members Chung, David, Eoff, Lee Loy, Poindexter, Richards, Villegas, and Acting Chair Kaneali`i-Kleinfelder — 8. Noes: None. Absent: Committee Member Kierkiewicz-1. Excused: None. ACTING CHR. KANEALI`I-KLEINFELDER: Okay, so that is no noes, and that is all in favor. So we have eight in favor and one absent. And may I please have a motion to adjourn? ADJOURN- There being no further business, at 3:33 p.m., Ms. David moved to adjourn the MENT: , meeting.
