Notice is hereby given that the Council of the County of Kaua’i will hold a public hearing on Thursday, January 16, 2020, at 1:30 p.m., or soon thereafter, at the Council Chambers, 4396 Rice Street, Room 201, Historic County Building, Lihu’e, on the following:

Bill No. 2767
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 5A, KAUA’I COUNTY
CODE 1987, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO REAL PROPERTY TAXES

This Bill proposes to amend Chapter 5A, Section 5A-6.4(f),
Section 5A-11.4(a)(2)(E), and Section 5A-11A.3(a), Kaua’i County Code 1987, as amended, relating to Real Property Taxes, to exclude vacation rental, hotel, and resort uses from the “commercialized home use” class, and to exclude real property with vacation rental, hotel, or resort use from being eligible to receive the assessment cap for home exemption property. This ensures that properties providing transient accommodations are similarly classified, to equitably distribute the costs of County infrastructure and services.

Written testimony can be submitted to the Office of the County Clerk, Council Services Division by mail, facsimile, or via E-mail to counciltestimony@kauai.gov.
