Hawaii's legislature considers a bill to triple urban housing densities, allowing up to two more dwelling units per lot in urban areas, and reducing lot parcel sizes to 2,000 sq ft. The proposal aims to tackle Hawaii's high housing costs by promoting multi-unit housing. It has support from county planning directors, non-profits, and the Hawaii Island Chamber of Commerce, but faces opposition from residents concerned about neighborhood impacts.
