This particular measure targets permit requirements tied to obsolete valuations in order to account for inflation.<br><br>\u201cSeventy-five percent of permits stuck in the backlog are residential permits.

Furthermore, it will allow minor modifications to existing permitted projects without triggering a requirement for another permit.\u201d<br><br>During the Mar. 1 meeting, there were a few more changes to the measure and DPP is willing to incorporate the changes. The next hearing for Bill 56 will be on March 15 at the Honolulu City Council.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bill 56 aims to reduce the Department of Planning and Permitting\u2019s (DPP) permit backlog and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17141,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[11,5],"tags":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=150%2C150&ssl=1",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=300%2C169&ssl=1",300,169,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=640%2C360&ssl=1",640,360,true],"large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=640%2C360&ssl=1",640,360,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"ultp_layout_landscape_large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"ultp_layout_landscape":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"ultp_layout_portrait":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=600%2C394&ssl=1",600,394,true],"ultp_layout_square":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=600%2C394&ssl=1",600,394,true],"covernews-slider-full":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"covernews-slider-center":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?fit=700%2C394&ssl=1",700,394,true],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=540%2C293&ssl=1",540,293,true],"covernews-medium-square":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/HFN-Tupola-Council-color_03042023.jpg?resize=400%2C233&ssl=1",400,233,true]},"author_info":{"info":["admin"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/thefilipinochronicle.com\/backup\/category\/_news\/hawaii-filipino\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Hawaii -
