DHHL now issues building permits to itself - Punatang - 10-03-2024
So much to unpack:
Sounds like it "accelerates" their "ability to construct houses."

"Located on DHHL’s landholdings in Kalaeloa, the Yorktown transitional housing project includes 18 studio units, a shared laundry room and an office space. The department aims to offer a safe and affordable housing solution for houseless individuals on DHHL’s residential waitlist.
Project costs stand at nearly $6.3 million."

If that's what they say it will cost now, expect it to actually be much more, possibly double. The problem with DHHL is not permitting, it's DHHL itself. This organization has not shown itself capable of managing anything, and getting their own permitting authority won't change that. It might actually make things worse, especially if they decide to cut corners.

it "accelerates" their "ability to construct houses."
When was DHHL set up? 1920? It took them 100+ years to recognize they’re not fulfilling their mandate in a timely manner? Will they now speed up the process and try and get it done in the next 90 years instead of another 100?
