Governor Hopes to Create New Development Authority for Harbors and Parks


Governor Neil Abercrombie has announced that he would like to create a new development authority for the state’s harbors and parks. Under the governors’ proposal, a five member board would work with the private sector to develop these locations and bring in additional revenue for the state. For example, the new development authority may identify a state owned small boat harbor and find a suitable private developer to redevelop and manage the facility for the state.
Abercrombie’s administration had suggested a similar initiative to develop underused public school land and use the money generated to modernize existing schools.
