Renewal of Hawaii's Land Use Planning and Regulation for Agriculture and Conservation

This document outlines the renewal of Hawaii's land use planning system under Article XI, Section 3 of the Hawaii State Constitution. It focuses on the implementation of policies and standards aimed at conserving agricultural lands, promoting diversified agriculture, and increasing agricultural self-sufficiency. The Land Use Commission will redefine significant land use districts, while counties will maintain oversight and ensure adherence to state criteria. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of community involvement and flexibility in local agricultural management strategies.
