Full Senate Passes Its Version Of PLDC Repeal

By /
The vote on the floor Tuesday (Feb. 19) was unanimous for repeal of the Public Land Development Corporation. 

Senate Bill 707 does this:

Repeals chapter 171C, HRS, relating to the PLDC. Deposits funds appropriated to the DLNR, pursuant to Act 55, Session Laws of Hawaii 2011, into the land conservation fund. Deposits proceeds in the stadium facilities special fund and the school facilities special fund into the general fund. Transfers PLDC employees and assets to the DLNR.

SB 707 now heads to the House, which last week unanimously sent its own bill repealing the PLDC to the Senate.
